The Tale of Kieu
What is the value of a noble heart that remains unyielding even in the face of fate's harsh trials?
📝ONGO's Reflection
When I followed the life of Kieu, who sacrifices herself to save her family and walks a harrowing road of suffering for fifteen years, I could not hold back the reddening of my eyes. Called the very essence of Vietnam's national literature, this epic depicts one woman's desperate yet beautiful resistance, never losing her inner dignity even under a cruel heaven that envies her talent and beauty. The sublimity of true human love and loyalty, blooming even amid a storm-tossed life, strikes the deepest chords of the heart.

When unfair treatment or unavoidable hardship strikes, hold to a composed dignity of heart instead of resenting your circumstances.
