Bruce Lee, originally of Chinese descent, was born on November 27, 1940 at the Chinese Hospital Hospital in San Francisco. His real name is Lee Jun-Fan. His name was given by the doctor who was present at his birth. His father and mother were actors in Chinese opera.

When Lee was born, they were in the United States for a tour. His parents wanted him to learn Kung Fu at a young age. In 1954, as a student of the famous Kung Fu Master Yip Man, he decided to study the Wing Chun system.

This was because he was able to overcome his fear of being humiliated in a street fight. In the future, he started to add boxing studies to the Wing Chun system. He also had a great interest in dance. He would not turn down those who wanted to dance. Much of the dance balance and footwork influenced Lee's later fighting style. He was chosen champion in Hong Kong in his favorite dance genre, Cha Cha.

He became notorious at the age of 19 due to his frequent street fights, and in 1959 his family sent Lee to the United States with their friends. While living in Seattle, she was allowed to stay as long as she was a waitress on the rooftop of a restaurant. He then attended the University of Washington, graduating from high school. He studied philosophy here. During this period, he continued to work at the restaurant at night. While attending school, he started to teach Kung Fu lessons, which until then was forbidden to be taught to anyone other than the Chinese, in order to explain the richness of Chinese Culture to the Americans.

For this purpose, he opened a school named Jun Fan Kung Fu, which bears his name.
