Probably someone can easily ID Thug B.
Singer looks a bit like Ma Chiu Chi but can't find that's she ever sung Cantonese opera previously.
I'm getting old and can't keep Fung King Man, Fung Ming and Fung King straight anymore. Fung King is especially confusing since two previous IDs seem disparate yet verify upon review.

Easy: Thug B = Gam Lui (Didn't You mention he is one of Your favourite actors once?) I am worried about You!
Added Wan Ling-Kwong (Club guest) too. And I suppose left and right from Wan Ling-Kwong are well-known, too,
but I am not such familiar with that period actors names. Can't recall any other movie with them... Michael will!

Too old, too tired. Agree on Wan Ling Kwong - thanks, but that's not Kam Lui. I can still recognize him. Too short and stocky, for one. Look at long shots, thug B is shorter than Lam Yuk.

I've think I've seen Glasses Guest before but never capped him before. Guessing he's a behind-the-scenes guy like Yu Lun.

The old Fung Ging/Fung Ming problem confusses me every time.

What I can say is that all IDs on UNDER HONG KONG'S ROOF look in my eyes correct except the ID of Fung Ging I would say it is Fung Ming (like the ID of Fung Ging in BLUNDERING BUT LUCKY - I also say it looks like Fung Ming).

The old problem is the question if all IDs under Fung Ming really show the same actor. If yes, it is in my opinion Fung Ming in UNDER... and BLUNDERING...

Heinz added two IDs of Fung Ging to YOU'D BETTER BE SMART which show an actor that not looks like the 2 images in BLUNDERING... and UNDER...
Is it based on the role name in the credits:

??? If yes we can see that Fung Ging really not looks very much like Fung Ming.

I think I've figured out the real Fung King in BLUNDERING. Will post pics later. That IS Fung Ming in ROOF and BLUNDERING.

Will change to Fung Ming, and also removing Kam Lui tag from ROOF.

Added a group pic with Fung King in BLUNDERING.

ref. Blundering But Lucky (1965)
ID'd Pak Lai and Leung Chiu-Fan after watching whole of movie. Did not see Siu Kam, probably a different Ko Fung. Did not see Lai Man either. HKFA credit for Yiu Yin Ping is incorrect, she's called Tai Sam and Sei Sam, not San Sam as listed in HKFA. On-screen cast credits shorter than HKFA's listing, too.
Will add some additional pics later.
