Why did a tragic classic Cantonese opera Dai Nu Fa end up with a happy ending, angering Dai Nu Fa opera fans and supporters? According to Charmaine Sheh, it is because TVB did not buy the copyright to the original story so couldn't copy the whole story line.  What else is new with cheap TVB?  link

      I was personally affronted by its sappy 'happy ending" to a well-loved, renowned classic opera. To me it is a travesty to a classic renowned opera, like giving an altered happy ending to the classic Romeo and Juliet or The Butterfly Lovers.

      Ida: I did not know of the happy ever after ending, so I was both shocked and disappointed at the ending - like wth?
