\u5f53\u7231\u5df2\u6210\u5f80\u4e8b d\u0101ng ài y\u01d0 chéng w\u01cengshì [When Love became the Past] is the theme song of movie \u9738\u738b\u5225\u59ec bàwángbiéj\u012b [Farewell My Concubine]. It’s also one of my favorite Chinese so<\/em>ngs that is written by \u674e\u5b97\u76db l\u01d0 z\u014dng chéng.<\/p>\n

There are two versions of the song. The one that is sung by the main actor \u5f20\u56fd\u8363 Zh\u0101ng Guóróng is very touching because it was said that he was too deep into the movie that when the movie finished shooting he couldn’t come out of it. That’s the youtube one. The role that \u5f20\u56fd\u8363 Zh\u0101ng Guóróng took in the movie is the male Beijing opera actor that imperso<\/em>nated the concubine. That was a very tragic but also difficult role to play. \u5f20\u56fd\u8363 Zh\u0101ng Guóróng totally immersed himself into the role and rendered it almost perfectly. In the movie he was in love with the other male role but had to keep the secret to himself while watching his lover to marry a girl and carry on a normal family life. However, the three of them had to huddle together to survive all dark periods in comtemperary Chinese history, including culture revolution. In the end, he killed himself in front of his lover near the end of a performance, exactly the same ending of the drama that they carried out together for almost a lifetime.<\/p>\n

As a matter of fact, though not publicly stated, \u5f20\u56fd\u8363 Zh\u0101ng Guóróng did have romantic relatio<\/em>nship with another man in real life. And he committed suicide on April 1, 2003 due to depression. He was always remembered as a great actor. Despite his perso<\/em>nal life, he had got millions and millions of female fans.<\/p>\n

Now let’s listen to the song, just like listen to the voice from the bottom of his heart…<\/p>\n
