These pictures were taken at Yung Mei Ling's godmothers apartment where she lived at the time

 At the same day these pictures were taken just outside the apartment.

感谢若水提供的阿翁代母家(香港天光道45号)2015年新图片"除了铁闸无论是空调摆放位置还是屋檐的挡雨棚,30年过去了都没有变化。"图五应该是红衣阿翁在院内拍摄,图八是在代母家拍摄。图九也是在代母家里拍摄,然后那天还参加了TVB15周年酒会。

Yung Mei Ling’s godmother ’s house (45 Tin Kwong Road, Hung Hom (红磡))  “Except for the iron gate, whether it ’s the location of the air conditioner or the rain canopy of the eaves, 30 years have passed.” The pictures show Yung Mei Ling in the courtyard, and at godmother's house. Another picture was taken before she joined the TVB 15th anniversary reception that day.

More information about Hung Hom (红磡)

Hung Hom (红磡) is a district in Hong Kong, located in the southern part of the Kowloon Peninsula. It is a bustling urban area known for its mix of residential, commercial, and transportation hubs.

Key Features of Hung Hom:

Transportation Center:

Home to the Hung Hom Station (now part of the East Rail Line), a major rail interchange connecting Hong Kong to mainland China (via the MTR and former KCR).
Near the Cross-Harbour Tunnel, a critical link between Kowloon and Hong Kong Island.

Residential & Commercial:

A blend of older housing estates, private apartments, and newer high-rises.
Close to Polytechnic University (PolyU) and the Hong Kong Coliseum (a major concert venue).

Barbara Yung’s Connection:

She initially lived with her godmother on Tin Kwong Road (天光道) in Hung Hom after returning from the UK.
The area was a practical choice for TVB artists at the time due to its proximity to production studios (though TVB’s main headquarters were in Clear Water Bay later).

Clarifying the Geography:

Hung Hom vs. Kowloon Tong:

Hung Hom is south of Kowloon Tong (where Broadcast Drive/Welcome Gardens is located).
While both are in Kowloon, Kowloon Tong is more affluent and residential, whereas Hung Hom has a grittier, transit-oriented vibe.

    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.
