Legacy

There is a memorial museum for Chung located in Meinong. His autobiographical novel Yuán Xiāng Rén (原鄉人; literally: The man from the native land) had been dramatized into China My Native Land, a 1980 film that directed by Hsing Lee (李行). And the homonymic theme song for the movie was sung by Teresa Teng. Additionally, Chung's son Chung Tieh-min (鍾鐵民) is also a writer.
