THREE KINGDOMS TV SERIES SERIES

This is a story about war, the end of a dynasty, ambitious men, heroism, political plots and personal struggles set in an era known as one of the bloodiest in Chinese history. Even the OST at the start of each episode adequately summed the entire novel in eloquent words. During those days, ppl compose music to be sung as a poem with accompaniments from traditional Chinese musical instruments. But if you are expecting music that accurately reflects the music of the era in the 'Three Kingdoms', you will be delighted. Music: If you are expecting great OSTs, you will be disappointed. They will put all those idol actors to complete shame! Everything was to the dot - from settings, costumes, etiquette to speech.they all accurately depicted the correct era in Chinese history. The actors and actresses will make you feel as if you are watching history unfold before your screen. Otherwise, this would turn into a 100+ episode series.Īcting/Cast: If you want to know what is professional, solid, honest-to-goodness acting, watch this. Many would say 95 episodes is plenty but in actual fact, there are little side stories in the novel that were excluded.

The director certainly selected the perfect cast to act in this series. Each character is depicted accurately - from their behavior, aspirations, thoughts, speech patterns to looks. This drama is like reading the novel itself.

Admittedly, I watched this in 2010 when it was airing and has recently re-watched it to remind myself parts of the Three Kingdoms' story.

With 95 episodes, it is one of the lengthiest series I'd followed but also the most satisfying to complete. There are many movies and dramas out there on this classic story of the 'Three Kingdoms' but none had truly captured the entire novel, page by page, as this 2010 version. Rewatch Value 5.5 Story: This series is a legend by itself.
