Wong Fei-hung
Wong Fei-hung (9 July 1847 – 17 April 1925), born Wong Sek-cheung with the courtesy name Tat-wun, was a Chinese martial artist, physician, and folk hero. He has become the subject of numerous martial arts films and television series. He was considered an expert in the Hung Ga style of Chinese martial arts. As a physician, Wong practised and taught acupuncture and other forms of traditional Chinese medicine in Po Chi Lam (???; ???; B?ozh?lín; Bou2-zi1-lam4), a medical clinic in Guangzhou City, Guangdong Province. A museum dedicated to him was built in his birthplace in Foshan City, Guangdong Province.
Among Wong's students, the more notable ones include Lam Sai-wing (Lin Shirong), Leung Foon (??; Liang Kuan), Dang Fong (Deng Fang), and Ling Wan-kai (???; Ling Yunjie).
Wong is sometimes incorrectly identified as one of the "Ten Tigers of Canton". His father, Wong Kei-ying, was one of the ten but Wong himself was not. Wong is also sometimes referred to as the "Tiger after the Ten Tigers".
