Dragon Lee, (born August 12, 1958)[1][2][3] originally known in South Korea as Keo Ryong (거룡, literally "Giant Dragon") and born Moon Kyoung-seok, is an actor and practitioner of taekwondo and hapkido.[4] He made a name for himself as a martial arts film star in the 1970s and 80s.
When Dragon Lee was at a theater, a man told him that he resembled Bruce Lee, a big compliment because the latter was popular at the time. The man knew film directors in Hong Kong and helped Dragon Lee advance his career.
In his early 20s, Dragon Lee moved to Hong Kong and starred in many martial arts films, often credited as Bruce Lei because of his resemblance to Bruce Lee. Among his many film credits is the semi-documentary The Real Bruce Lee (1977).
Later life
Dragon Lee moved back to Seoul and is now a television actor and producer. He also heads a national actors' association.
