In 1932 he debuted in the film "Gor Nui Ching Chiu" ("Sentimental Song of Companions' Tide") playing a bit part, shot in San Francisco (USA). Soon he came back to Hong Kong to participate in an anti-Japanese opposition movement. His first leading role was in 1935 with "Song of the Yesterday", the first version was filmed in Hong Kong and the second in the USA in 1937. During World War II Kwan travelled through the USA to raise funds for China. In 1947 a Singaporean film company hired him to play martial arts master Wong Fei Hung in a movie trilogy directed by Wu Peng. Kwan was hired because of his martial arts knowledge. The success was so great that Wu and Kwan would collaborate on 79 films, 59 of which were about Wong. After almost 90 films about Wong Fei Hung, Kwan played the same character in his first TV series in 1976. In total Kwan made more than 130 films. He died in Hong Kong in 1996. Edit Biography
