Actress Wong Tit Tung cd be Iris Wong Yat Tung. the only different in their chinese character is their last name. Different is slight. ALso, Wong Tit Tung shd be named as Wong Yat Tung because her middle name in hanyu pinyin is "yi".

Try to search the web but cd not find any evidence to support my suspicion.

Help! :lol:

Iris Wong is in the movie. I saw it not so long ago - she appears in the very beginning as the girl whom dates Francis Ng.

Hi! Akira,

That is what i saw too. Opening credit put her as iris wong and her chinese characters as that of Wong Tit Tung as in the movie's DB.

I know that, many a time, they wrote chinese name of not famous actor and actress wrongly.

Chinese movie makers always cut cost and rush their final products. They don't even provide all the cast names and role. If they do, you wd need a magnifying glass to read them.

Darn frustrating.

Mr. WilliamWan and Mr. AkiraRus, your sight works correctly.

According to WebPAC, is Iris Wong Yat Tung 黃泆潼 the actress credited in this film.

"Wong Tit Tung" maybe is an error of the editor who added this info, but as I'm not sure, I merged both names and I created an alias for her.

Also I don't understand why the "transliterator engine" cannot provide the cantonese of "Yat" :?
