Nearly finished watching the new ROCH. I'm up to the bit where ZBT finally goes to meet YG. I just realized how sad ZBT's life has been, but it never gets him down.
He's meeting with YG and their affair, than running away in shame. His "big brother" dies and entrusts him with 9 yin. He gets trapped on peach blossom island for years. Still feels ashamed about "stealing" YG from YD so avoids him, even though YD has forgiven him. He finds out he has a son at the same time that he finds out that his son was murdered. He finally makes peace with both YD and YG near the end of his life. And all through that he stays happy.
A remarkable fellow really.
I wonder how his son would have turned out if he lived?
