【明報專訊】Thanks to the Ip Man (葉問) movies, Wing Chun(詠春) has become much more popular with Hong Kong youngsters. As a result, much attention has been directed to Foshan (佛山), Ip Man's hometown. On 24 September 2010, 3,176 people gave a huge collective Wing Chun performance in Luo Village. It has made Guinness World Records.
An application has been made for listing Wing Chun as intangible cultural heritage.
