As a series of big screen works shined during the past National Day holiday, a small screen production became a hot topic on social media.

It was a nine-episode TV adaptation of Chinese literature classic, The Dream of the Red Chamber. Although the book has had heaps of TV, film and opera adaptations, the latest one is performed by a group of children aged 6-12 years old.

Despite their young age, the cast skillfully portrayed the characters and won much applause.
