Bobo Hui Pik-kee

Biography

Bobo Hui Pik-kee is a veteran Hong Kong actress known for her supporting roles in television dramas. Born in 1931, she was raised in Shantou before moving with her parents to Hong Kong in 1946. Unable to attend school due to being overage, she enrolled in an English night school. Her artistic career began when a friend working at Radio Hong Kong organized a Teochew dialect drama troupe and asked her to dub films in Teochew. Years later, she became the host of the program "First Arrival," teaching Teochew speakers how to adapt to life in Hong Kong. Hui began her career as a guest actress at Asia Television and later joined TVB in 1991, appearing in the film "Raped Woman." She is known for her supporting roles such as kind grandmothers, garbage collectors, and passersby. She gained widespread attention in 2010 for her portrayal of "Bone Grandmother" in "No Regrets." In the second half of 2016, she suffered a fall at home resulting in a leg bone fracture, which has caused mobility difficulties in recent years and reduced her television appearances.
