Li Kun 
(Li Kuen, Lee Kun, Lee Kuen, Lee Quin)
Actor
Li Kun was already a well recognized supporting actor for Shaw Brothers before he became
a regular of director Lo Wei. He appeared in two of the best known Bruce Lee movies-
The Big Boss and Fist of Fury. While shooting The Big Boss in Thailand, Bruce Lee
mistook a female fan's interest in an autograph for himself, when the "Mr. Lee" she
was referring to was actually Li Kun. That fan became Li Kun's wife, and Bruce was in
attendance at their wedding.
Best known for comedy, Li Kun's other roles include The Skyhawk with Kwan Tak Hing,
Donnie Yen's father in Drunken Tai Chi, and the miserly businessman 'Ti Cha' in
Jackie Chan's The Fearless Hyena. In 2002, he reprised his role from the Shaw Brothers
classic The Three Smiles in the stage musical The Butterfly Lovers.
