Biography
Born Wu Jianzhong, Onitsuka Ng Kin-Chung is a Hong Kong actor and fashion designer. He grew up as one of 10 brothers, and the family struggled when his father passed away when he was 11 years old. His affinity for fashion design inspired him to seek a career in the arts. He took an acting role as a prisoner in the 1979 film Caning. This would lead to further prominent roles in Hong Kong films including Fortune Hunters, Triad Story and Angel Terminators. By 1985, he opened his own fashion store. The business would expand through the 1990s, but in 2003 Ng chose to shutter all locations due to health concerns. Also an avid racer, he publicly gave up his hobby at the insistence of his wife and children.
