Images of East Asia movie actors (part 1)

Images from East Asian action movies.  Most of them are from South Korea and I emphasize them for several reasons:  I was stationed just south of the DMV in 1953 and developed a fondness for the land and its people; it is now again threatened with destruction by the US  and I don't want that to happen. Lobby against it, please.

South Korea was a desperately-poor, backward (by Western standards) land when I was there: in contrast, South Korea, as pictured by movie directors, is now a vibrant land, women are at least equal to men socially and economically, a land whose architecture puts Hawaii to shame.  And I like the way the men look and move. (See, e.g., Man on High Heels, netflix) a daring movie since gay rights are barely permitted in South Korea).

Other images come from Singapore, China, Hong Kong, and Taiwan. Some of the most imanatige come from Thailand.

Following posts contain more images.  The images kere are not sorted, except for Aaron Kwok.
















































































Aaron Kwok, see below












"Teen Wolf" snuck in when I wasn't looking.  Never too old for "Teen Wolf."










Aaron Kwok is an old favorite.
Other images of Aaron from "The Storm Riders"   (highly recommended) include:

































So did "Mogli", but Jason Scott Lee is always welcomed.
