Somaline Ang (b. 1994)

Alias:
Hong Ling
洪凌

Birthplace:
Singapore

Born:
August 16, 1994

This lovely lass of Chinese and Thai heritage was discovered through a local talent search programme Hey Gorgeous. The programme scouts for good-looking younger people with star quality in schools across Singapore. Hong Ling emerged as one of the semi-finalists. A demure young lady, Hong Ling speaks in a gentle demeanour and is always well composed. After completing her acting classes, Hong Ling was given the opportunity to hone her acting skills with roles in Against The Tide and You Can Be An Angel Too.  Proving her mettle in acting, she landed a main role in Channel 8 long form drama “118”. In the 270-episode drama that premiered in 2014, Hong Ling also secured the 1st female lead role in Home Truly in 2017; challenging the role of a simple countryside girl from the rural area of Thailand, acting against love interest Pierre Png (Best Actor for Star Awards and Asian Television Award).  She stole the limelight at Star Awards 2015, when she beat other female finalists and won the Tokyo Bust Express Sexy Babe Award. Undoubtedly there will be more to come from this beauty in the near future. In 2020, she had her first breakthrough role as a single mother in a blockbuster My Guardian Angels, acting alongside our lead actresses Zoe Tay and Kym Ng.  Come 2021, she received her first Top 10 Most Popular Female Award at Star Awards.

About the Movie Section

Most data and links to images for the Movies section come from TheMovieDB (TMDB).

Additional data for Film Titles come from The Open Movie Database (OMDb).

At least one plug-in comes from IMDb.

Data are -- hey, it's a plural -- subject to the limitations of their sources. (For example, TMDB search results currently max out at 20.) I am limiting myself to free data sources for now. (No, a "free trial" is not free.)

While much of the above data are retrieved directly from outside APIs and other such sources, data from American Film Institute (AFI) and British Film Institute (BFI) were manually entered the old fashioned way into a MySQL database. Re BFI I took the following liberties:

  • I added "runners up" to Top 10 lists, treating them as ties where applicable and numbering them accordingly at the bottom of each list.
  • Regarding those polls wherein "franchise" movies were submitted as one project until BFI's policy changed to regard them separately, I treated them as ties and renumbered the affected lists accordingly (e.g. the Godfather films).

Regarding profile removals and data corrections:

  • If you would like your profile removed from this site, please contact the source of this data directly, TheMovieDB. My assumption is: once it's gone from their site, it should soon be gone from this site.
  • If you would like to correct movie data on this site, please contact the source of this data directly, TheMovieDB. My assumption is: once it's corrected on their site, it should soon be corrected on this site.
  • For additional corrections and profile removals, please e-mail The Open Movie Database (OMDb).

Filtering is applied here to film projects flagged as "adult" by TheMovieDB. Pending "popular demand" I am contemplating a login and profile system with preferences (such as whether to allow adult images to appear) and permissions (such as data entry).

Whereas the overall purpose of this website is to serve as a personal demo/portfolio/workshop of web and data skills, this Movies section is not meant to compete with or substitute for far more definitive movie websites.
