The final episode of the hottest TV drama in China has been aired on TV last night. So today I'm going to talk about Nirvana in Fire, whose Chinese name is Lang Ya Bang.
Millions of people either rushed home for the live TV viewing or stayed up till midnight for the episode updates on the internet. Actually, I was one of them. And I really enjoy the process of binge-watching.
The drama introduces a story about redressing an unjust case and reviving the country. A loyal general called Lin Xie took his only child, the 17 year old Lin Shu to the battlefield to defend the country. Unexpectedly, Lin Xie was framed by his political rivals, causing the unjust deaths of seventy thousand Chi Yan army soldiers, just after they drove off the hostile Wei forces.
Fortunately, Lin Shu was rescued by a loyal subordinate, although he barely escaped with his life. With the help of Lang Ya Hall, Lin Shu was able to change his appearance, establish the Jiang Zuo Alliance, the top faction in Jianghu, and return to the capital 12 years latter as the identity of Mei Changsu. He secretly assists his friend Xiao Jingyan, the unfavoured son of Emperor and wisely rids the court of all scheming officials, successfully overturning the past injustices of the Chi Yan army ahead of his impending death…
I was attracted by the excellent script, the exqwisite tableaux and the consummate acting skills of actors and actresses. There is no doubt that Nirvana in Fire has been a hit in China even all over the world. So if you haven't watched it, just have a try. I believe you will not regret.
That's all. Thank you!
