Ke Huy Quan as the leading actor of the series "Da tai jian yu xiao mu jiang"

​​​​​​​I submit Ke Huy Quan as the leading actor of the series "Da tai jian yu xiao mu jiang", then accept the refuse for" Unable to verify".​​​​​​​

​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​​​​​​​​​​​​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​

​​​​​​​Now I submit it for second time. #230319-071646-156000​​​​​​​

​​​​​​​There is some ​​​​​​​​​​​​​​evidence​​​​​​​​​​​​​​ for Quan's ​​​​​​​​acting career in Taiwan​​​​​​​​:​​​​​​​

​​​​​​​First, His Chinese name "關繼威" is on the opening title of the series as the leading actor: ​​​​https://youtu.be/5w1pKnR4G70?t=42​​​​​​​

​​​​(If you watch the whole series TTV upload on Youtube, you'll know the he really appered in the most scenes.)​​​​

​​​​​​​Second, there is an English article, the interview from Vanity Fair in 2022, mentions this series: ​​​​​​​​​​​​​​https://www.vanityfair.com/hollywood/2022/12/awards-insider-ke-huy-quans-true-hollywood-comeback​​​​​​​

​​​​​​​"At first he thought he just needed to finish high school to be considered for serious full-time work. But Hollywood’s opportunities for Asian actors in the ’80s and ’90s were particularly​​​ ​​​few and far between, and he wound up spending his early 20s in a perpetual state of envy over how many auditions, much less actual roles, his peers kept landing. There was ... a starring role in the 1993 Taiwanese costume drama The Big Eunuch and the Little Carpenter."​​​ ​​​​

​​​​​​​"The Big Eunuch and the Little Carpenter" is the  literal translation of the original title "大太監與小木匠" (pinyin: ​​​​​​​​​​​​Da tai jian yu xiao mu jiang​​​​​​​​​​​​).​​​​​​​

​​​​​​​Please don't say it is "Unable to verify".​​​​​​​

@Maya​ Thanks a lot!

During the 1980-1990s, Quan filmed 2 works in Taiwan.

Besides "Da tai jian yu xiao mu jiang" (1993), he is also the leading actor of the film "Hu tu miao zei xiao shen tou (1986)" (original Chinese title:糊塗妙賊小神偷)

Please help to add it:

@Maya​ Thanks.

About #230320-154604-299000, I accept the result: Quan is also "Unable to verify" to be a part of the cast.

" Hu tu miao zei xiao shen tou (1986)" was on screen in Japan in 1990. The Japanese title is "Ke Huy Quan's Thieves" ( キー・ホイ・クァンの ドロボーズ):
The slogan on the top of Japanese poster:
The genius kid from " Indiana Jones and the Temple of Doom" and " The Goonies" starred in the movie.
Please help me to add him to the main cast of " Hu tu miao zei xiao shen tou (1986)". Thanks a lot.

@Bethanny​ Thanks. However, it is not work. I accept the decline message again... After submitting so many proof, the result still the same. It is frustrating. I don't know how should I do to make it work.

A day passed. I think the "duplicate one" might also fail, so I submit it again with 4 pictures (in a pdf file). Is there anyone can really help me?
Not only says it should be wait and I should resubmit again and again.
I submit it for 5 times, and every time I add proves. Enough is enough.
It is almost discrimination to people who try to add non-English films' information on IMDb.
