During my primary school days, I had to sleep early so that I could wake up early at 530am. I did not manage to watch the night time TV shows, but I was able to hear the songs that was being played in the living room. One of the song that I had heard was this one above. I did not watch the show at all but maybe took a glance or two when I had to go toilet.
I found the song very nice during my adulthood, especially so after I got to learn about the lyrics of the song. It was such a meaningful song both the theme song (above) and the subtheme song as shown below.
The song was a all time favourite for me. I love the song so much that I had it for my ringtone. Knowing just the title of the song seems to be so incomplete. I wanted to know what is the meaning of the title and what show is it actually. For so many years passed, finally one day I saw that someone had upload the show on YouTube. About two weeks ago I started to watch the drama series. Yesterday I manage to finish the last episode.
Very grateful to ziwei kuang for uploading the drama. But there were some episodes missing and more towards the end. So I missed out on how Che YuTing died and also how Leslie Cheung and Chan Pang killed each other. The ending was so exciting that I watched continuously episode after episode, missing my sleep. The starting was rather boring and I watched like one day one or two episodes.
戏剧人生
I searched for the English translation of 浮生六劫 and it means Six Tribulations of Floating Life or Floating Life Six Calamities. The English title for this drama is Gone With the Wind. There are altogether 76 episodes. The ending was very sad. For example, watching Che YuTing locking himself with chains tying to the pillar of the house (to safeguard his house, refusing to sell his house, claiming that he own the house and he did not sell it). However this did not stop the people from chasing him out of the house. In the lower picture below, he was seen sitting outside the gate of his house, drenched with rain falling on him. Much more of his pathetic scenes at the end if you watch the show.

I like the show so much that I had made a video on 戏剧人生/ dramatic life.
