comment:

The reason why I chose this story is that I have watched many versions of Sleeping Beauty since I was a child. I want to see how this channel interprets this story. I think the words in this video are too simple for me. I will try to watch Level 3 next time.

In the story, it is said that the king destroys the spinning wheel and compensates the people at the same time. This is the first time I heard it. Other versions only mentioned destruction. With more compensation, the audience felt made the audience feel that he is a good king who cares about the people. In the end, the prince’s appearance was a bit too sudden, but fortunately, he didn’t kiss her mouth like in other versions but kissed her hand. It's weird when the princess wakes up and says you're the one I've been waiting for When they met for the first time, moreover the princess introducing the prince to her parents is weird in modern terms.

I think the story would be more complete if the time was longer
