Jul 21, 2005 Title: Monkey King - The Quest for the Sutra Cast: Monkey (Suen Ng Hong) – Dicky Cheung Wai Kin Sandy (Sha Jang) – Sam Lee Chan Sum. With their bad acting. Now that Monkey King has gone for the quest, they appear less in the story. But I read the episode guide and it seems that Purple Orkid is going to reappear. That is so not good.
The Monkey King: Quest for the Sutra is a 2002 Hong Kong/Taiwanese TV series based on the classic Chinese novel: Journey to the West. It is also a remake of the 90’s TVB version.
This is the second Monkey King that is portrayed by Dicky Cheung, the other one being “Journey to the West I”. It is also the first Monkey King series that is not called “Journey to the West”. This was just broadcast on TVB however it is a co-production of Taiwanese-Hong Kong.
