“Our entire generation is trapped by fate. We all share a troubled past...”


The story begins with Wu Song fighting a tiger in Jingyang Pass. After joining the heroes in Liang Mountain, he is crestfallen, recognising that life in the barren hills is monotonous and uninspiring. While leader Song Jiang bides his time waiting for the Emperor's pardon, Li Kui (aka "Black Tornado") rushes to the capital ready to kill.


Whether by coincidence or thanks to destiny, Wu Song now has a mission: leading the team to bring Li back to the fold. This screen version of The Diary of Song is taken from archival video of its 2017 premiere at the Hong Kong City Hall.


This production won both Best Original Script and Outstanding Production of the year at the 27th Hong Kong Drama Awards.


With English subtitles.
