About Zheng Yuanhe and Li Yasin
Based on the Tang dynasty's "The Tale of Li Wa (Li Wa Zhuan)," this film follows the romance between Zheng Yuanhe, son of the Changzhou provincial governor, and Li Yaxian, a renowned courtesan. Billed as "Authentic Taiwanese Opera," this production marks the first color Taiwanese opera film. Yang Li-hua leads the TTV Taiwanese Opera Troupe in a spectacular cast.
Directed by Yu Han-Hsiang, Zheng Yuanhe and Li Yasin leans on a strong ensemble — Yang Li-Hua, Sze-Ma Yu-Chiao, Hsiao-Feng-Hsien — to carry a story that balances spectacle with character.
The film landed with audiences for its craft and performances, and remains one of the most talked-about screen titles of 1980.
