In the movie credited Jimmy Yu as cinematographer, and Jimmy Yu is an alias for Chui Chun, but on the other hand, was he warking with Godfrey Ho and in Korea???

According to Mr. Dlopez, expert in Godfrey Ho topics, Tang and Ho are 2 different people.

Ho did not directed "Dragon's Showdown" nor "Grandmaster of Shaolin Kung Fu", and these movies were not produced by Tang nor Lai. They only bought the rights and re-edited in HK (with Leung Ching-Wan) those Korean movies. So all the work was done in post-production.

Cinematographers cannot work in post-production unless they film new aditional scenes. So I am not sure if Chui (HK cinematographer) and Yu (Korean cinematographer) are the same person. Maybe there are 2 "Jimmy Yus".

Oh, so the information that I gave should be deleted?
In my opinion - yes, because as I understand correctly Godfrey Ho was the (chinese or english) dubbing director, so he did nothing with the original movie shooting. I think these credits will only confuse the DB viewers.

We do not know what exactly did Ho in these movies. If we remove these credits we should remove the 80 % of his filmography. Anyway "supervising director" must be credited as "director" too.
