Slippery slope and slithery slime

All that poking about at youtube is making me want to watch that Shunsui TV drama- err, The River Flows Eastward. I gather this is a twelve hankie tragedy in which a) rocks fall, everybody dies and b) Hu Jun does Someone wrong and ends badly (youtube is good about telling you how people end badly so there's no suspense.) So who does Uncle Ming play? and who's the woman in the cap?

The China Centre woman said region 1 DVDs won't play on a region-free DVD player. Does anyone know if that's true?

I probably have my regions wrong. What she meant was China region won't play in a region-free. My player isn't even that; it's firmly NAmerican and not AFAICS hackable to be otherwise.

So I need a multi-region, if those exist legitimately, and not a region-free?

Yeah, multi-region is pretty common these days. Let me know if you can't find one.
