Already touched on Monkey War in the past, including on Koreans Update Projects for both Lee Jae-yeong and Yoo Seong. My update for the whole film was put on hold as I was struggling with a few IDs, but in the end I had to give up on them, I just had too little to work with to be sure on them, so there credits are there even though they're missing IDs. Then it was the usual story of other things getting priority.
I've added cast and crew from the Korean credits (including several new to HKMDB) and updated the pages of all involved. I even managed to find a few Taiwanese details, so included those too.
All ID's are NEW except for Liu Shang-chien and Fanny Fang that had been done ages ago, also Lee Jae-yeong and Yoo Seong, which I had ID'd earlier myself when doing their respective KUPs. For the other Koreans, this is their only HKMDB title, with three exceptions.
1 - Kim Yoo-haeng, who's been in plenty and plenty more to come
2 - Jang Eun-seon, who has one other film, Adorable Treasure Hunt [1983], I'd added her credit at an earlier date but as I don't have access to that film, I couldn't use it to try and get an ID.
3 - Joo Eun-seop, this is his very first ID, though he's credited on several films already. He's in quite a few more (many uncredited) that I intend to adress when I complete his KUP (it's half done).
There are one or two credits such as Im Ryong, that I suspect might be mistranslations of some of the non-Korean cast that weren't credited on the Korean cut, such as Chin Shih. Several of the others had strange translations that I could figure out, but no such luck here.
