On the morning of March 31st, the Hong Kong entertainment industry was shocked by the passing of actress Thi Minh, who was 74 years old. She leaves a huge void in the hearts of audiences with her classic portrayal of "Purple Robe Dragon King," marking the end of a martial arts legend.
The devastating complications of pneumonia and a heartbreaking moment of farewell.
After days of keeping the news secret to prepare for the funeral, the actress's son, Li Yonghan, officially confirmed his mother's death in the early morning of March 21st at the hospital. According to the family, the tragedy stemmed from an unusual accident in early February when she choked, causing a foreign object to enter her lungs, requiring emergency hospitalization and the insertion of a respiratory support tube. Despite the doctors' best efforts, her already weakened health after years of battling illness meant her body could not withstand the complications.
The final moments of the female artist's life unfolded amidst the overwhelming grief of her loved ones. Li Yonghan tearfully stated that due to the rapid and sudden progression of her illness, he was unable to see his mother one last time before she passed away. The cause of death was determined to be severe pneumonia leading to multiple organ failure. This was a huge shock to the family because Thi Minh had previously survived several near-death experiences following serious brain surgeries in 2022 and an infection in 2024.
"Purple Robe Dragon King" - The most handsome on screen and a multi-talented life.
Born in 1951, Thi Minh belongs to the "golden generation" of actresses at Lai Lai Television (the predecessor of ATV). With her striking, mixed-race features and strong demeanor, she didn't choose the path of a refined lady but frequently embodied strong, edgy characters. Vietnamese audiences remember her best for her role as Zi Shan Long Wang in the 1986 masterpiece *The Heaven Sword and Dragon Saber*. Her mysterious, cold yet profound beauty created a Jin Hua Po Po who was both terrifying and pitiable, becoming a standard for many subsequent versions.
Beyond acting, Thi Minh is also a true "action heroine" in real life with impressive martial arts skills. She is proficient in Karate and Judo and is an expert horse rider. One of the most interesting anecdotes from her career is that she once served as a bodyguard for Hollywood superstar Sylvester Stallone when he visited Hong Kong. Her versatility and serious work ethic have made her a "golden face" for weighty supporting roles in works such as *Nezha*, *The Romantic Swordsman*, and *Royal Police Chronicles 2*.
The ups and downs behind the dazzling spotlight
Thi Minh's personal life has also been the subject of much media attention. She was married for over a decade to martial arts director Li Jia Ding and had two twin sons. Although they separated in 1994, they maintained a civil relationship, raising their children together. In her later years, she chose a quiet life, away from the glitz and glamour to focus on her health and enjoy time with her children and grandchildren.
The passing of Thi Minh at the age of 74 is a somber note for Hong Kong cinema in the final days of March. She may not have been the brightest star in the artistic galaxy, but she was an indispensable part of the golden age, where each role was played with dedication and professional integrity. The image of this beautiful woman with sharp eyes on the martial arts screen will forever remain a cherished memory in the hearts of her fans, a legend who has just officially closed her proud journey.
