Liu Kuang Hui, English name Patrick, is a Taiwanese filmmaker born in Changhua, Taiwan. While he was studying at Taipei University of the Arts, he was influenced by senior film critics Huang Jian Ye and Edward Yang, and became interested in film art.

During the university, he participated in the shooting assistant work of off-campus advertising MV, and began to establish the image concept. After graduating from university, he began to work as an MV director in 1994, shooting hundreds of MVs in Mandarin and Taiwanese.

In 2002, he turned to drama shooting, and his works were mostly idol dramas. During this period, he was also engaged in film script development and stage play director. In 2020, his film "The Name Engraved in Your Heart" was shortlisted for the Osaka International Film Festival, the new director competition for the 2020 São Paulo Film Festival in Brazil, and was shortlisted for four awards at the 57th Golden Horse Awards.

The Taiwanese director expressed how close his last film is to his own life. The particular arc of A-Han is about “80%” based on Liu’s own experiences, according to the director: “Originally, my intention wasn’t to make a gay film, it was to make a personal film,” he says. “This is about my first love, and my first love happened to be a story of a boy liking another boy.”
