Ru Hua is a character in Hong Kong actor-director Stephen Chow's movies who has left a deep impression on viewers.
The name means "like a flower" in Chinese, but this is no delicate bloom. Rather, he is a cross-dresser who wears thick make-up and usually seen digging his nose with his pinky finger.
The role was played by Hong Kong actor Lee Kin Yan, who reportedly suffered a stroke in 2019 and was said to be half paralysed.
Hong Kong's Oriental Daily News reported on Sunday (July 5) that Lee, who has been based in China in recent years, fell unconscious at a sauna in Shenzhen and was sent to hospital, where he was diagnosed to have suffered a stroke.
The 59-year-old actor was revived by doctors, but could not move the right side of his body and had difficulty speaking.
He returned to Hong Kong for further treatment and his health has improved given the care of his wife and family. He has two daughters and one son with his wife.
Lee responded to the report by Oriental Daily News on Weibo on Monday: "I will try my best to recover and return to the screen as fast as possible. Thank you everyone for your concern."
