I never thought in a million years I would dedicate nearly 2 and a half hours watching something like this, but this is beautiful!
Now I gotta learn this language! Dying for understanding what their saying.
Beautiful culture & art.
U have to read it cuz if u listened to what they are saying, youll kinda not understand it cuz its written/said in old mandarin so ye
@@CentralProcessingUnitCore They are speaking in mandarin, but ye your right, i cant understand shiat when they are singing
Nikhi Chau has the full opera in English subtitles on their channel!
May I recommend watching Chinese Dramas? They have helped me self-learn the Chinese language and I am very grateful for it as well
@@xXlotusmoonXx a love so beautiful
Honestly I think it’s great that a lot of us English viewers are here because of Yun Jin. Mihoyo created a character designed to highlight the appeal of Chinese opera, and a lot of us picked up what they were putting down and decided to go out and expand our own cultural horizons as a result.
I don’t speak the language, and I have only the most cursory understanding of the story based on a google search that also gave me a lot of etsy product suggestions, but the aesthetic is so captivating and the voices are so unique (to me as a USAmerican) and beautiful that it’s absolutely worth watching even without English subs.
@Atomix A they’re quicker to judge them unfortunately
@Atomix A what
@Atomix A idk i think its not just americans. yea there are some people who do tend to go overboard worship other cultures, i see lots of different nationalities interested in each others lifestyle, traditions and history and i mean, i think its ok! its fun to study other peoples way of life and i think holding an inteest and appreciation is ok and shouldn't really be looked down upon! I mean its better than ignorance which leads to misunderstandings and fights, right? :)
It's amazing how all these non-Chinese are here because of a video game. Most Chinese are so sick of hearing Beijing/Cantonese opera being blasted from grandparent's radios or forced to watch endless hours of it during Chinese New Year that we just can't stand it anymore. LOL. But after turning 30 or 40 (depending on sophistication & maturation of aesthetics & musical taste), Chinese grow to appreciate our traditional forms of music again.
Check out KUNQU, it's the oldest form of Chinese opera, from Eastern China (a lot more slow & meditative).
Also, nowadays there are of course female performers, but back in the day, women were banned from performing opera (as they didn't want them to become prostitutes) so men played the female roles as well. Including this. So what you're watching here is essentially a traditional Chinese DRAG PERFORMANCE. Shanté you stay. LOL.
@Atomix A Or maybe they're just admiring it. Do you have a problem with appreciating cultures other than your own?
Full of Chinese value and spirit. Only after so many years, then I can understand the details and symbols in the performance, understand the emotions of the roles. Shred many tears, eventually matched my childhood moral teaching with this story.
Same here
I have always been drawn to all things Chinese and the language is gorgeous. I discovered Chinese is a tonal language and very sing songy which makes sense as I adore music. This is just stunning.
Me too. Chinese is so underrated, compared to Korean and Japanese. Japanese is by far the most grossly overrated, while it's amazing how vast Chinese culture is.
@@zack2804yeah and without Chinese, Japanese and Korean would be nothing
have you ever took an interest in cantonese opera
I went and watched a version with English subtitles so I could come back to this one and know what's going on because Meixiang in this one makes me laugh and the Xue princess has such a pretty voice.
Here thanks to Yunjin ♡
Me too.
me too lmaoo
Me 3.
Who is Yunjin? o_O
Pop culture and games introducing people to cultural arts makes me so happy.
For those not from China! I shall let you all know! At the beginning of the Opera where we see the servant girl appear, she is played by male opera singer. It is really easy to tell because of his deeper voice range than the average Chinese female voice range
He fine as hell
@@obeseperson Yessir!
For many years I have not watched western entertainment. I now watch Asian programmes, mainly Chinese. They are of a better quality and much less vulgar than those produced in the West. I also like Chinese music, and via this entertainment I am now able to understand some of the language.
@@arnoldsaunders6073 YES!! 100% Agree!
No, she's a female, famous singer named Chi XiaoQiu. This singing style is called Cheng style. So no matter who sings her part, it sounds like a male voice 😅😅😅
I wish someone could add English subtitles...
th-cam.com/video/rENUrYQQqqw/w-d-xo.html - not this date's performance but same story
Lots of things will be lost in translation for sure, but still it’ll help people enjoy it.
There is a video that has eng sub for this opera
Your ears would bleed even more.
@@unclealand 怎么那么想不开
As a Chinese born in 90s, this is my favorite opera. I'm shocked that this channel didn't bother to put up an English subtitle.
ive enjoyed this opera but only if zhang huo ding is the lead
as a chinese person who grew up in Europe, one of the things I would really like to do someday is make more english subs for Peking opera!
please do!!! i would love to be able to understand
great idea
Does anyone else here finds that jingju is great as a bg music for studying or is it just me 😅
yo SAME
I’m captivated! I can’t stop watching!! This is amazing. I have no clue what they are saying. However, I can get it through the facial expressions. They are so precise. The dainty hands, the expressions, so perfect! As a southern American, I can’t wait to experience this in person. I don’t care how old I will get, I will see one. I’m so happy I live in an age where I can experience it now! The dedication this takes is epic!!
這個北劇真的感動的；我真的沒料了.......舊的故事今天還有感動的強力。 太美麗的！
After watching many versions by many opera artiste.....this one has the most complete ending...
Indeed, watching these operas other than their skills in performing , the history n story lines depict the Chinese cultural emphasis on hierarchy n value systems base on Confucianism n refinement in
Human relations..that are still relevant in modern times,,,
hsve you ever given cantonese opera a chance
It's fascinating how story telling and the way we tell narratives is pretty consistent, regardless of where you go in the world and regardless of culture or time period.
I just realised I read about this story years ago in elementary school! It was from one of our text books! I loved it
i absolutely just love 💕 the costumes
Truly awe inspiring

Suddenly this video is filled with Yunjin😄
WTF IS WRONG WITH U NOT ALL CHINESE OPERA IS YUNJIN GIRL GET HELP
@@misamori people mean that they found out about chinese opera through yun jin, and if you need some chilling pills I can spare some.
@@lizamix_playz3618 ..... what ( ・∇・)
@@misamori No shit sherlock, peking opera is not all Yunjin, but commenters literally said they came here FROM her. They're taking their time to actually appreciate another culture from a game. Your reply to them is pretty dumb. ".....what" Acting like you don't know what you said.
@@su1ka779 I oNly said WHAT BECAUSE SHE TOLD ME TO TAKE PILLS ALSO I FIND IT “ANNOYING” TO SEE YUNJIN ON EVERY COMMENT AND ITS ALWAYS YUNJIN IDC BUT LIKE it’s starting to become LIKEEE everyone’s gonna say it I love YUNJIN but u guys have to shut up a while about her cuz mostly they think that all opera YUNJIN and still NO HATE but just like shut up about her u can still like her talk about her but not in this. Also I think that idc if they did come from her u still have to shut up. Also THIS IS JUST MY “OPINION”
Jewelry Bag Aria is at 43:11
Came here from Ching cheng hanji, then to bao singing, then to watching all of 琴弦连 and now here
My Chinese is terrible and the northern accent makes the actors a bit hard to understand but I love the musical style and beautiful costumes from these operas so much I couldnt care less what language they were in ❤
have you ever giving cantonese opera a try
I have a newfound appreciation for long sleeves
I love this so much! Its very beatifull :3
@Atomix A Your constant crave for attention will never lead you to anything. Do something productive for once.
@Atomix A Also who tf uses aryan
@Atomix A what is wrong with u?
@Atomix A I’m talking about why would u mention an aryan?
@Atomix A THIS VIDEO IS ABOUT CHINESE OPERA SO WHY ARE U MENTIONING ABOUT AN ARYAN
No entiendo nada de lo que ducen pero puedo deducir un poco lo que ocurre. JAJAJ es tan genial!!!!
好歌剧👏
beautiful
Pekin operasina seviyorum izliyorum.(Türkiye'den Tesekürler)
Opera Peking ❤️❤️
the script is typically full of traditional literary words even most Chinese ppl wouldnt understand without watching the subtitles. Besides the translated script will be too wordy to follow you will definitely lose track of the performance. So let it be, appreciate the show.
btw this is actually fairly "new " peking opera play, created in the year of 1940 . The theme is about to give and help out of kindness and mercy, and late ending up being paid back with gratitude.
I love Chinese opera
It’s beautiful 🥰🥰🥰
非常高興，見到孟珂扮演(梅香)👍👍👍
Queria que o meu país, Brasil, valorizasse mais à cultura da China! Aqui no Brasil nós amamos boa música e dança! 😍BR BR BR
Amazing reminds me of the siamsa Irish Theter
The first full-length Beijing Opera show that I watched. Really lovely. But without the Mandarin transcription, honestly I would be lost.
經典視頻 京劇鎖麟囊 遲小秋 北京京劇院演出
It would be much better if English subtitles available.
Oh my gawwwwd she says no to almost everything
It’s so hard to understand what she’s thinking and what she wants and doesn’t want
But then when she’s actually satisfied with something she smiles and it’s so cute ahh
Oh my god the kid is the same it’s hilarious
May I ask what you mean?
@@MoonlyShine I think I was responding to the character. Things were being offered to her and she keeps refusing them without specifying what she wants. But then when she does like something she smiles. And the child is the same. Does that make sense?
No entiendo ni "papa" , pero me encanta
我非常喜欢这个！

The Unicorn Curse
I am learning 日本語 (Japanese)🇯🇵, so I’m trying to see what Chinese characters I can recognize from my kanji lessons, so far I’ve seen 大(oo/big) and I’m hoping to see 愛(ai/love)
even 日本语 is hanzi , ribenyu
@@Ran-nf7ot not exactly like the same glyphs don't mean the same letters
You've got a few more decades to go, if all you've learned so far is "大“ and "爱”. Those are HSK 1 characters that Chinese preschoolers learn lmao.
Its really great. Awsm to watch. I really like it but I didn't understand anything. Can add subs please. I would like to watch it again with subs.
I liked the part with the unicorn purse.
43:53

I am Korean, but I would like to add subtitles, whether English or Chinese. I plan to use the automatic translation function.
Where to find English subtitles?
In the hell

Please China NCPA write undertitle in english! Thanks
I feel before watching that it'll be more beautiful than Shaoxing opera... I respect that art but it was annoying to my ears... I'm veryyyy interested in Chinese language and culture so I'm listening to this music..
Ok that's beautiful.
