What exactly is the difference between Philip Kwok’s opera training compared to Luther Chu and Jiang Sheng?

What a great question! Firstly, Kuo Chui studied Taiwanese Opera because he’s from ethnic Taiwanese descent. Lu Feng and Chiang Sheng had mainland Chinese descent so they studied Peking Opera. Although they were all at the same school! If you want a more detailed explanation then let me know because I could talk about it for hours. To put it simply, Taiwanese Opera has the same basic training but you typically sing the plays in the Hokkien dialect instead of Mandarin. The costumes and makeup are slightly different as well! Something interesting is also that Lu Feng has a very loud voice when he projects it so originally when he was around 8, they would focus more on his singing instead of the other aspects. However around 15-16, his voice was no longer childlike so the focus was turned to his martial arts, weapons training, and acrobatics.

In addition, several b tier venoms studied Peking Opera because quite a few of them were Taiwanese with either mainland Chinese descent. Some examples would be Ricky Cheng Tien-Chi, Yu Tai-Ping, and Chu Ko! I hope this answers your question! Like I said you can tell me if you want something more detailed 🥰

I just hopped on a tiktok editing trend with the Venoms SJSJDJDJ

I just feel that we should take a moment to appreciate these works of art. My favorite part is that Lo Mang didn’t get to hang out with the rest of the Venoms much because of cultural differences. He is from Hong Kong and the others are from Taiwan. Wei Pai’s exact birthplace is unknown but it’s somewhere in China. It looks like Lo Mang, Kuo Chui, and Sun Chien are having so much fun here!!
