(ä½™) Chui s/b Yu?

[quote="Fan"]Not sure if this is a similar case but I noticed that some actors with surname ä½™, they are "Chui" in the English db instead of "Yu". I doubt whether it's mixed up with another common surname å¾

Try inspecting anything with 'Diy' and 'Shut' too. Chungshan? Chiuchow? Hokkien? Vietnamese? These two words also seem to pop up everywhere and aren't familiar to me as anything I know in vernacular Guangchou/HK phonetics. IMO, goofy. :shock:

I need time to get used to that change.

You can also change on Chui Chung-Hei the third word in the name. All other people with that character in the database are called "Chiu" and not "Hei".
