Here is a short translation what people in show said about Barbara:
Miu: "She was surely my good workmate although we played opponents, my enemy on the show. Later we worked together in many shows. We were actually 'brothers", I never treated her as a girl, she was always like a boy, very outgoing person. The most unforgettable part between us was during the show, she accidentally hurt my eye with her stick (stage property) so badly that I spent one month in the hospital. When I fall down to the ground, my first reaction is 'where is my eye?'
Miu: "I though my eye had been gone. That was a pretty deep hurt, but I didn't blame her for that. Later we were still friends."
Felix: "It just reminds me a lot about us. I think she was a very brillant girl. She could grasp everything the director wanted her to do as soon as she stepped up, she was a good learner. Off the show, she also taught me how to get along with people around. She always had strong connections with people around her."
Later Miu added: "She was also a righteous and knightly girl in reality. She liked to defend people against injustice."

    Finally, I visited her resting place in Cambridge back in late October 2025. Cleaned the area and pulled some weeds. It’s been 40 years, and nobody can replace her. Always wonder what she would become if she were still alive.

    It made no difference whether Jackie Chan spoke about Barbara or not. In fact, Jackie Chan appeared in several photos with Barbara, Kent, and her mother, and his wife, Joan Lin, was also photographed with Barbara on a few occasions. Barbara had already risen to fame on her own merit and exceptional acting talent. She was one of the fastest actresses to gain widespread recognition, and she did not need any endorsement from him. By the 1980s, she was regarded as an elite actress. Truly, she was a phenomenal performer—and she continues to be recognized and admired to this day.

    Thanks for the research and clearing things up Rob , I guess that Jackie only knew Barbara through promotional and charity events … They also never starred together in films / series …

    This is what ChatGTP says: There’s no known documented instance where Jackie Chan (成龍) has publicly mentioned Barbara Yung (翁美玲) in interviews, autobiographies, or other recorded statements. Searches through available English and Chinese sources do not find any credible quote, interview excerpt, or reliable record in which Jackie Chan talks about Barbara Yung by name. Summary There’s no credible documented evidence that Jackie Chan ever publicly spoke about Barbara Yung — either praising her, remembering her, or otherwise referencing her — in interviews or other primary sources available to date.
