Based on a popular Hong Kong Manhua called Teddy Boy, Young and Dangerous is a series of live-action films detailing the various underground societies of the city. The films primarily contributed to the image of the triads and was condemned by circles as over-glorifying these secret societies. Regardless, the popularity of the films led to a total of 10 sequels and Spinoffs. The films also became a foothold for establishing its acting casts into mainstream Hong Kong actors.The main series and spinoffs (in order of release) are as follows: | |

Darker and Edgier: Young and Dangerous 3 begins ascending the death toll among recurring characters; later films make it clear not even the main cast is entirely immune to harm. | |

| Young and Dangerous / int_22a60f6a | comment |
Nepotism: Discussed - Lui Gong's son, Lui Fu Kwan, returns to Taiwan from the United States in Born to be King. The San Luen triad believes he will succeed his father as its head, but Fu Kwan doesn't want the position, believing he's not fit to lead as he doesn't know enough of Taiwan's culture and environment after years of being abroad. Played straight later when after framing Chicken, he steps up into the position, but plans to unite all of Taiwan's triads into one conglomerate, with the help of the new government. | |

I Never Said It Was Poison: When Barbarian's ousted for sabotaging Chicken's campaign during the election debate in Young and Dangerous 4, he denies the claims and spills he had nothing to do with working alongside Yiu Yeung. Naturally, no one else in Hung Hing, aside from "Fat Lai", whom Barbarian was collaborating with, knew he had been under Tung Sing's payroll. | |

| Young and Dangerous / int_53c9fc92 | comment |
The story in the first sequel is told in two parts: the first is a Flashback regarding Chicken and his self-imposed exile to Taiwan during the previous film; the second returns to the present where the Hung Hing society attempts to align with Chicken's Taiwanese triad "San Luen". At the same time, the branch leadership for Hong Kong's Causeway Bay district is underway, with Ho Nam the top candidate, but a rivalry ensues between him and fellow Hung Hing member "Tai Fei" (Anthony Wong). | |

Benevolent Boss | |
| Young and Dangerous / int_a24670a4 | comment |
Benevolent Boss, Reasonable Authority Figure: Both the Chiang siblings - the elder was willing to relinquish his position as Chairman to Ugly Kwan without confrontation (likely because he didn't want a Civil War among Hung Hing to spill out onto the streets) and was willing to split the losses from money stolen with Ho Nam during his candidacy for Causeway Bay; the younger, although somewhat reluctant to replace his brother as leader of the society, returned because he felt a sense of filial piety to uphold. Not to mention both men actually reward those working for them. Lui Gong, San Luen's leader, in Young and Dangerous 2 might count: while it seems doubtful he would allow an exiled Chicken to join his society, Chicken proved his worth by assassinating a rival politician, earning Lui Gong's trust, even promoting Chicken to branch leader. Subverted later when he reveals he was simply using Chicken as a bridge between Hung Hing and San Luen to seize control of Macau's gambling spots away from Hung Hing. | |

Hypocritical Humor At the start of Young and Dangerous 2, Ho Nam celebrates opening a new bar and an oblivious city councilor (likely there to make good rapport with its owner) is present at the celebrations. Father Lam is also there, reminding the councilor he is among a known triad. When the councilor asks Lam why a man of the cloth is associated with gangsters, Father Lam answers "I'm not like you: my boss is Jesus!" In Young and Dangerous 5, Chairman Chiang wonders why Ho Nam isn't smoking anymore. Ho Nam says he quit; Chiang says that's a good thing, then immediately offers Ho Nam a cigar. | |

True Companions: Deconstructed in Young and Dangerous 4 - Chou Pei unknowingly gave up Tai Tin Yee's location after the latter unsuccessfully tried to assassinate Barbarian to help Chicken's campaign for the branch leadership. Barbarian relays the info to Yiu Yeung, who orders Tin Yee to his death. Since Ho Nam, a well-respected branch leader in Hung Hing, can't allow to be lenient among the society, let alone his own friends, has Chou Pei beaten to an inch of his life. | |

Spin-Off | |
| Young and Dangerous / int_d9eee868 | comment |
A semi-Spinoff of the franchise, the story tells of Ugly Kwan's rise and fall in the Hong Kong triads. While Francis Ng reprises his role as Kwan and Father Lam makes a cameo appearance, the plot does not necessarily mesh well with canon events. | |

Good Smoking, Evil Smoking: Anyone who's part of the triad smokes; no exceptions. Averted beginning with Young and Dangerous 5 when Ho Nam decides to quit. | |

Field Promotion | |
| Young and Dangerous / int_db911ee | comment |
Field Promotion: Ho Nam goes from Uncle Bee's leading enforcer to branch leader of Wan Chai to branch leader of Causeway Bay to the most trusted lieutenant of Chairman Chiang by Young and Dangerous 5, all in the span of 3 years. By Born to be King, Chiang steps down to retire and promotes Ho Nam to leader of the Hung Hing society. Similarly, Chicken: another of Bee's top enforcers to branch leader of one of San Luen's districts to branch leader of Tuen Mun in the same amount of time as Ho Nam. In Born to be King, he marries Nanako, with implications from Isako that after he retires, Chicken will be leader of the Yamada clan. | |

Drugs Are Bad | |
| Young and Dangerous / int_de7b7cbf | comment |
Drugs Are Bad: In contrast to Tung Sing, it's Hung Hing's policy they do not handle the flow of drugs in the underground for Hong Kong. The exception is when Ugly Kwan was Chairman, but he was notably more corrupt than Chiang Tin Sung. | |

Never Bring a Knife to a Fist Fight: Yiu Yeung pulls out a hidden dagger during his last man standing bout with Ho Nam in Young and Dangerous 4. He gets the short end of it when Fat Lai intervenes and kills him for pulling out a weapon in the first place. | |

| Young and Dangerous / int_ef2d2bae | comment |
Canonically the last installment to the series, Born to be King, or better known as Young and Dangerous 6, begins with Chicken set to marry Nanako Kusaraki, the daughter of Japanese Yakuza boss Isako Kusaraki (Sonny Chiba), to tie relationships between the Taiwanese San Luen triad and Kurasaki's "Yamada Clan". When Chicken is set up and framed again for murder, he seeks his old friends from Hung Hing to clear his name. Like Young and Dangerous 5, the 2000 Taiwan presidential elections serves as the backdrop for the film. | |

20 Minutes into the Future | |
| Young and Dangerous / int_f32d85ab | comment |
The series begins with Chan Ho Nam (Ekin Cheng), "Chicken" Chiu (Jordan Chan), Tai Tin Yee (Michael Tse), Bao Pei (Jerry Lam) and his brother Chou Pei (Jason Chu) joining the "Hung Hing" society in their teens, quickly leading up to their young adult years. The plot of the story involves internal struggling of control within Hung Hing, where "Ugly Kwan" (Francis Ng) successfully yanks the position of Chairman away and takes it for himself. | |

Suspiciously Similar Substitute: Banana for Chou Pei, after he was Killed Off for Real. Naturally used as an excuse for Jason Chu to return, since he portrays both roles, but In-Universe, it's because Banana looks exactly like Chou Pei. | |

Badass Preacher: Father "Lethal Weapon" Lam, who, aside from being an ex-triad member, kicks Ugly Kwan, the most powerful person in Hung Hing at the time, in the face when he doesn't admit to causing Uncle Bee's death. Lam totally gets away with it. | |
