A rare video, not only faithfully recorded the true face of the Kowloon Walled City, it&narrated by Lo Hoi-pang in Cantonese, and retains many authentic Cantonese vocabularies, some have disappeared in the Guangdong of today&Hong Kong life, and it&very unfortunate. To help you understand this video easier read this info: Lo Hoi-pang is a man from Guangzou. In 1969, shortly after the cultural revolution, he secretly passed into Hong Kong, he later joined TVB and became an actor for a variety of famous shows. This video is narrated by him and this documentary is spoken from the perspective of one of Kowloon Walled City&original residents, Uncle Lei (the barber). The older generation of the Guangzhou people have a solid and tough character, which Pang retains. Appearing in the film, there was a wordplay in the name of the dog meat shop, called "three hundred sixty-nine", of course, it&now gone. Why is it called "three hundred sixty-nine"? Because 3 plus 6 equals 9, 9 years in Cantonese with "dog" is a pronunciation, so "three hundred sixty-nine" refers to the word dog. I had some help translating some of this with help from members on a forum but a lot was by me and there may be minor errors, feel free to point out any if you must and I will change it.
