The latest version of "Journey to the West" shown on TV8 finished its run yesterday. This one was produced in China and the lead actors were from the mainland. When it was first shown, I declared to my mum that it would not be as good as the Hong Kong one starring Dicky Cheung as the Monkey King. I told my mum that that version was the best and so I decided not to watch the latest one.
However, I did accidentally tune in to watch the series one day after watching the news and continued watching it until the last episode. I am ashamed to say that this latest version is good and the actors gave very good portrayals of the characters. So, it is a lesson that I have learnt. Never judge something before checking it out first.
