Variations of his name are often written as Wong Cheng Lee or Wong Cheng Li, in their Cantonese-Chinese equivalents. He is also nicknamed Silver fox (the name of his most popular movie character), as well as "Thunderleg" or "Thunderfoot" (from his role in 1978 film Drunken Master). Born in Korea, but moved to Osaka, Japan at a very young age. He and his family later returned to Korea when he was as a teenager.
