He was already credited on about half of his films (but not yet ID'd): Woman's Martial Arts [1982]; My Name Is 'Twin Legs' [1982]; Martial Monks Of Shaolin Temple [1983]; Dragon Claws [1983]; Kwangdong Viper [1983]; Blue Butterfly The Amazon [1983].

I had added his credit on The Ring Of Death [1980] at an earlier point, when I was doing some updates to films with Korean cuts. Unfortunately I still don't have access to any scenes that he appears in, so I couldn't get any pics.

Another of those guys that had he come into the industry a few years earlier might've become a big star, though he did get a few prominent roles during the mid 80s. He had the kicks, flips and weapons skills, he was particularly skilled in gymnastics, being one of Korea's best of that era.

He was good looking and certainly worked his ass off too, often playing several roles and doubling for other actors too, including Keo Ryong (aka Dragon Lee) and Hwang Jeong-ri, so it's probably unfortunate timing that held him back. But he still had a decent career beyond the 80s, making appearances in films and TV but even directing projects of his own, including the Street Fighter: Street War series.

Annoyingly, he was a bit tricky to get decent pictures of, often being cut off by the edge of the screen or something else getting in the way or just being too far away etc. But there's some decent ones in there too, so I hope people like them. I also tagged Gaijin84's pics in Martial Monks and Dragon Claws.

I'll actually finish up a mini bio for him at some point, but that won't be for a while yet. For now I've just added that he's male and a few name variations.
