What site that is?
10 million views is fake views. Vietnamese youth mostly use youtube. The most controversial Vietnamese movie Bui Doi Cho Lon, generate debates on every Vietnamese news headlines have 2 million views max on youtube. 10 miilion views for Chinese sierie, that out done any hollywood movie to date, which less than 1 million view. Many illegal movie video site use fake counter.

yeah, some of my friends kept talking about it non-stop. it was quite popular among the girls and very female oriented tbh, which is why i'm kind of surprised you like it so much.

also i remain skeptical of revised TV version of any cultural product unless it's really good, too often i find them ruining my sacred imaginary world which is quite disappointing.

haha totally understand from a guy's perspective. i read it so long ago can't remember what the story was about.

my impression was that it's an OK novel on internet with reasonably good language and storylines when compared to its peers at the time. well the language part just won't show in sopies.

i may find it less of a good novel if i read it today though. time changes your taste.

Meh, I like manly series.

Song is epic, this series is very good though I have to skip quite a bit of it (like probably amount to 10 episodes on irrelevant shit). Two parts that moved me deeply. The first was Han Xin became the general and the music played in the background while the army is protesting, and Liu Bang just left Han Xin hanging. The second part is at the end of the series where an aged Liu Bang just rush out into the crowd and dance along with others. Liu Bang fascinated me. His dirty tactics would make quite a match against Cao Cao. I believe Liu Bang's actor is quite famous. The director just came off from directing 3 kingdoms so he recycle some actors and the feel is very much the same. But I believe this series wasn't very popular in China.

The old Three Kingdoms have a special place in my heart. Although I never saw the old one in its entirety in Vietnam, I did saw it in the USA. But the music of the old one reminded me one of the poorest time in my life. That came off from the time I live like a hobo, and in our first house after my parents divorce and horrible custody battle which my father almost killed me. I think I probably 4 or 5 years old. I didn't have a tv then and I recall watching an ambush from a neighbor. I remember how old everyone is. I never draw the distinction between someone who is 23 or 43 or 65, if they had a beard then they are old. The place where I live had tin roof full of holes. When it rains, basically everywhere is wet. And here, I had to go pee outside where I saw a huge snake slithering by. And drinking and showering in the rain. But the thing I remember so distinctively was watching a corner rat biting a dog to death. That stuck with me to this day. The song is so classic and very fitting.

The remade is very awesome. Fleshed out characters that you don't know much before like Xun Yu, Lu Xun, etc. Love Cao Cao, Sima Yi, and Liu Bei's portrayal. Always have a soft spot for Huang Zhong. An old man seeking a chance of glory. So many nice characters.

Speaking of childhood. Can't stance to watch both of those series now. The logic make no sense, dialogues are bad, effects bad, etc. Though, when I was in English Second Language class, I was actually able to communicate those characters name with my chinese friend (who was also my best friend at the time). Still remember the introduction of the five rats in Bao Qing Tian and Sun Wukong trick people to drink his pee.

Don't think I ever finished this series. Don't even remember the viet name for it. It is a pain in the *** when titles are in English, Chinese, and Viet and I can't really associate one with the other. But from what I remember the beginning was great. Included this here because the opening song is pretty epic. It is always nice to learn the background historical characters because Jin Yong's Duke of Mount Deer is one of my favorite story.
