Martial arts star Ly Lien Kiet has just posted a video revealing his true appearance at the age of U70, completely without using filters. Although there were rumors of poor health, his radiant appearance raised questions about "replacing the heart and aging completely", causing a stir among fans.
From a "martial arts prodigy" to a global cinema icon
Born on April 26, 1963 in Beijing, China, Li Lianjie has been an extraordinary journey, starting from the harsh Wushu training floors to the peak of Hollywood cinema's fame.
Background and adolescence
Ly Lien Kiet's childhood soon faced difficulties when his father died when he was only two years old, leaving his mother to raise five children alone. It was from that situation that a resilient Li Lien Kiet was born. The biggest turning point came in 1971, when he was selected for the Beijing Wushu Team. The natural talent of the boy surnamed Ly was quickly revealed. He not only learns quickly but also possesses a strong, decisive but also flexible performance style.
Just a few years later, the name Ly Lien Kiet shocked the martial arts industry. From 1975 to 1979, he won five consecutive All-China Wushu championships, dubbed the "Martial Arts Prodigy". Most incredibly, in 1974, at the age of 11, he performed for US President Richard Nixon and was hailed as a rare talent. It was these titles that paved the way for his later artistic path.
Starting a film business and the milestone of "Shaolin Temple"
In 1982, Ly Lien Kiet made his breakthrough film debut with the movie "Shaolin Temple". This work was not only a box office hit but also created a cultural wave, reviving the Chinese martial arts film genre. With a gentle face, a gentle smile but extremely sharp martial arts movements, Ly Lien Kiet completely conquered the audience. This movie transformed him from a Wushu athlete into an instant movie star.
The peak of glory: From Huang Feihong to the "Kung Fu Star" in Hollywood
The 90s witnessed the most brilliant sublimation in Ly Lien Kiet's career. He became the "King of Kung Fu" on the screen, associating his name with a series of classic roles that until now it is difficult for anyone to replace.
Transform into the great "Hoang Phi Hong"
The series "Hoang Phi Hong" under the hands of director Tu Khac is the pinnacle of Ly Lien Kiet's career in Hong Kong. Different from the TV version, Ly Lien Kiet has brought a Hoang Phi Hong who is both erudite, patriotic, and strong with beautiful Hung Quyen martial arts positions. The film "Fist of Legend" later cemented his status, with the role of Tran Chan being hailed by critics as one of the best martial arts action films ever made.
Conquer Hollywood
In 1998, Ly Lien Kiet officially entered the fierce Hollywood film arena as the villain in "Ultimate Weapon 4". Even though it was only a supporting role, his appearance made a strong impression on Western audiences.
Since then, he has continuously taken on leading roles in major projects, including: "Romeo Must Die", "Kiss of the Dragon", and collaborated with Jackie Chan in "King Kung Fu". He was called by the international media by a familiar name: "Jet Li".
However, despite achieving global fame, Li Lien Kiet always maintains the criterion: not accepting roles that harm the image of Chinese people and their traditional culture. He wanted to become a cultural bridge between East and West.
The Inner Journey: Meditation and Charity Mission
When entering the age of U50, besides his film career, Ly Lien Kiet began to focus on spiritual life and social activities.
Experience the tsunami and spiritual transformation
One of the decisive events that changed his life was the devastating tsunami in 2004 in the Maldives. His whole family was lucky to escape. This near-life experience made Li Lien Kiet realize the impermanence of life and motivated him to search for deeper meaning.
He began to spend more time on Buddhism and meditation. Ly Lien Kiet openly shared that meditation helps him balance his life, relieve the pressure and physical pain accumulated after years of acting in action movies. He was no longer too obsessed with fame and fortune, but found joy in silence and inner connection.
One Foundation
In parallel with his search for peace, Li Lien Kiet founded the One Foundation Charity in 2007. The fund operates with the goal of supporting natural disaster recovery and education and public health projects. This is the greatest legacy that Ly Lien Kiet wants to leave behind: not just action movies, but kindness and help for the less fortunate.
The truth about "complete aging" at the age of U70: The truth behind the rumors
In recent years, Ly Lien Kiet's health has become a topic of special interest to the press and the public. In 2013, he publicly suffered from hyperthyroidism, a disease that requires long-term treatment and causes many side effects such as heart palpitations and weight loss.
Overcoming illness and image change
For a long time, the image of Ly Lien Kiet appeared in public with an old, emaciated, even somewhat unrecognizable appearance compared to the roles on the screen, making fans extremely worried. Many false rumors spread, culminating in the story of "Ly Lien Kiet secretly replaced his heart to completely rehabilitate the elderly" or had to be in a wheelchair because of illness.
However, these rumors have all proven to be unfounded. The mainstream media and Ly Lien Kiet himself have denied it. The fact that he became younger after a long time is thanks to the aggressive treatment of hyperthyroidism, combined with a healthy diet and the practice of serious meditation.
He shared: "My hyperthyroidism has been well controlled. The change in appearance is because I've found balance in my life, made time for meditation and lived a slow life, free from the terrible pressures of Hollywood."
At the age of 60, martial arts star Ly Lien Kiet lives a simple life, focusing on meditation and charity, reducing the frequency of filming. He changed from "Hoang Phi Hong" to a philosopher and Buddhist. His story proves that inner peace and mental health are the real secrets to rejuvenation, overcoming all rumors about mysterious medicine.
