    wish someone would have translated/subtitled the videos, but the trailer looks good. does this mean the monkey king was once human? I didn’t think that was how the story went but since I can’t really understand mandarin, not quite sure what the trailer is saying.

    looking forward to seeing the show, that is, if it ever gets subtitled.

    have a lovely day.

      just remember I saw another version in which the monkey king was born out of a rock, I guess I remember that the most & forgot the original story, which I wish someone had written in english and that those terribly translated versions.

        In the original story, he was born from a stone, yes.

        This one is a different spin on the story.
