Hawaii Five-O was a popular series that hit television screens in 1968, starring big names like Jack Lord, James MacArthur, Kam Fong, and many more that you will definitely remember. The show centered around the investigations by the elite branch of the Hawaii State Police, led by Detective Captain Steve McGarrett.

The series finished up with 12 seasons and ended in 1980 and reruns of the show still continue today. A reboot of the series was created in 2010 and was picked up for its ninth season in late 2018. It’s clearly a popular one! Here’s the original cast of Hawaii Five-O. Do you remember these faces?

Kam Fong played the role of Chin Ho. He was a Honolulu, HI native, which made him perfect for the role in Hawaii Five-O! He only had two handfuls of acting credits throughout the decades, his first a film in 1958 called Ghost of the China Sea. In the meantime, he was a member of the Honolulu Police Department. His final acting credit was actually in the Hawaii Five-O TV movie in 1997 and he later passed away in 2002.
