In this video, we uncover the deeper meaning behind Sun Wukong, the legendary Monkey King from Journey to the West. His name, “悟空” (Wùkōng), translates to awakening to emptiness, reflecting Buddhist wisdom and a journey of self-discovery. Discover how Wukong’s story—from rebellious stone monkey to enlightened hero—teaches lessons about letting go, finding inner peace, and understanding life’s true nature. We’ll also explore his cultural roots and draw fun comparisons to other modern heroes.
