西遊記 - Season 2 Episode 16
Oorsig: A young goblin, Yung-Hu, is desperately in love with a married human woman called I-Ling. I-Ling and her husband, Kwo-Fong, are excited that the pilgrims are approaching, because they want to learn about Buddha. Tripitaka is deeply offended by I-Ling's awful Buddhist dance, and the pilgrims leave. The goblin father disguises himself as a priest and convinces Kwo-Fong to join Tripitaka's pilgrimage to India, to become a Buddhist. With Kwo-Fong out of the way, Yung-Hu goes to see I-Ling.
Lewer kommentaar
So cheesy yet entertaining! A shame we never saw them reach India, and I only have two boxsets. Still, Monkey is a ridiculously fun cult following that inspired many adaptations, some loosely based on the Journey to the West.
