About this program
Once upon a time… before time itself. A hero standing against primordial chaos. A goddess who brings the first humans into being. And what if the origins of the Chinese New Year concealed a long-forgotten battle between a village and a terrifying creature born of darkness?
Three legends. Three shivers. A journey into the heart of millennia-old China—for curious children and for adults who have not forgotten how to wonder.
