Lang ya bang

Well, I do not know how to express my feeling towards this TV drama. I just know that even after the second time of watching it, I was still moved deeply. Tears filled my eyes, as the music is on. I cannot get myself out of it, even after several days. I hope that it can be longer, with more episodes. It is really something that can touch my heart and my soul. This is a famous TV opera from China. I am not sure whether the audience from western world can understand the culture and spirits in it. For example, why the emperor can have more than one wife. But still, something is always in common, no matter where we are, that is friendship and love. It is great luck, if a friend of you would like to anything for you without considering the outcomes. And when you do find one, please cherish that, cos maybe someday he or she will leave like the Shu in that drama

If you never experience watching the best TV drama, Nirvana in Fire is really the only thing you are looking for. It's all about revenge, deep critical thinking, amazing strategy, bromance , martial art, justice, romance, costume, loyalty,..., & historical period drama. The whole series is very very very brilliant & most reasonable. You can't even guess what going on. You will feel you yourself are so brainless. Moreover, you will experience what you never feel before. All I can say it's like breathless, addicted, crying, laughing, heart breaking,.... The cinematography is amazing. The costume is so beautiful. Not to mention actor performance. They are so talent. Not only the lead actors, everyone is great. It's so hard to not fall in love with the lead role actor. Nirvana in Fire won't give you a chance of boring. You probably feel uneasy on it first episode but believe me if you can pass it you will be unable to withdraw from your seat. Plese! don't miss it. It's really everything you can describe as the best TV drama you have ever seen.

The literal translation for this series title is LuoYang List, which is a list of the best martial artists in China at any given time during the 5th century. The dialogue is not dumbed down or forced like almost all Asian TV dramas. It is painted with classic four character Chinese metaphors/colloquialisms. Native speakers will enjoy the intricate writing.

If you only speak English, know that much of the beauty is lost in translation. Try to watch it with a native speaker who can give you the beautiful literal translations for each phrase.

There is an ever evolving story line of political intrigue and martial arts fights. There are dozens of complex characters who are a part of the succession struggle for the throne of the sitting emperor. Game of Thrones without the sex, dragons, and zombies.

There are also implicit parallels when compared to modern Chinese politics. Historical Chinese dramas are one of the very few avenues where the common man can still levy criticisms of present day Chinese government.

I am proud that the Chinese entertainment industry has finally graduated to the next level. I truly hope that there will be more dramas of this caliber.

Nirvana in Fire (Lang Ya Bang) is a combination of martial arts, war strategy, friendship, respectful, ways of doing things, history of the ancient, different groups of people and the motive of how to reveal the truth after a war. The story will touch your emotional straight away when it reaches certain part of the stories. I am assured of you watching it will follow me tears down. The martial art is the most superb part besides others. The way they have been trained and those typical movements, it is thoroughly being studied. The beautiful scenery of all really making you feel so good and there are some humors in between if you follow through. I watched it purely in Chinese because I love the original voices of all. Don't forget that there are also some truly bad people villain in marvel as to say, how they have strategist to make the good and honest troop fall into the pool of fire in "May Ling". The pain and sorrows arisen. It also talked about how other higher authority bullied and framed others through physical plans but with "Mei ChangSu" who is brave, most intelligent and a bit sarcastic but with good heart giving advises to the prince - "Jing Yan" once his best friend but this prince really do not recognise him till last.

When I watched the first episode, that already leading me wanted to watch the second and so on. The entire flow of the stories really good despite towards the end, a little slagging but it comes back when they wanted to investigate the old case that the King himself had made mistake by listening to the two (find out more). Mei ChangSu is the no.1 leader towards his troop that spreads around all places. Everyone respect him but he is too weak to fight this on his own. His lovely body-guard, a kid called, "Fei Liu" is truly funny listening to his two or three words without a full sentence but he could understand the entire meaning. The brave and beautiful "Mu Ni-Huang" who fights and love deeply that always able to win in each fight. She is a true warrior.

Here, you can see, learn, feel, comfort, anger, sad, normal, and etc feelings that you could ever imagine. How do they help each other and togetherness never break chaining them without regret. I have watched every single episode and I felt sad + happy when I watched the last episode. In my mind, it is like I have attended classes to view the history myself even though it is a total different with three kingdoms but had given me the insights of human nature, the kind and warm, justice and truth, the evil side and bonded love and friendship. I love this and therefore I have given a 10 rating.

Patience is the key to watch it because all details in each episode truly touches heart and enjoy the entire series.

It's a complicated story. Different audiences may see different key: loyalty, trickery, friendship, love, revenge, of course, a little bit of humor.

At beginning, I was attracted by its delicate and concise dress, calm and elegant slow lives. The characters' etiquette and the gave me a feeling of release pressure. Because of this, I fantasy I can live in ancient China.

But beneath the surface of slow tempo, undercurrent was terrible. As the story go, I felt the author's unprecedented courage. Original author Hai Yan (a female author, not that famous male entrepreneur also an author named Hai Yan) seems to convey a kind of the power of justice through this ancient Chinese story. Even if only to see her conception , the story and this series' art height is far more than those similar ones . In my opinion, previous produced ancient Chinese dramas just told audience what Chinese did and what they experienced, but in this series ,it seems to want to tell audience what Chinese should do in the future for seeking justice and truth.

An authoritarian government, the struggle of the two forces, a group of people full of justice, in order to a grievance of 13 years ago,finally, the leading role spoke out stirring line: "The purpose of review the case, just for the truth!" Yes, the truth! Even authoritarian Emperor Liang (Yongdai Ding played) refused to review the case because of various reasons , but in the end, he had to kneel down in front of the truth. His final confession is based on the goodness of human nature, I think it is the return of the family emotion cause. This kind of mood generated long before Mei Changsu (Ge Hu played) last stood in front of him. The most touching in this paragraph give me a chance to reflect: confession is the base of exposing truth and maybe result in seeking justice.

Of course, the process of seeking justice may be a very long time such as 13 years in this series, it takes patience, perseverance, teamwork and wisdom. The power of justice will be successful finally.
