Sun Wu Kong a.k.a Monkey King is the main protagonist of The Monkey King (The Great Sage, Heaven's Equal story) and also one of the main characters in Journey To The West (Tang Sanzang's Disciple story). His journey becomes an inspired Hong Kong-Chinese story. The story is already well known to most people in Asia and has aired in many versions (Original and non-original).

Among generations even this year 2023, Sun Wu Kong is still in the movie and inspired many people with his heroic and comedic actions despite being a monkey and doing "monkey" stuff 😂. This year Sun Wu Kong is aired with the title "The Monkey King" on Netflix. It's not just the movie, the song is going through generations with new lyrics and instruments but it still has one main thing to tell of which is Sun Wu Kong's personality. His nature is really non-human but he's kind in nature.
I also want to share the versions that I know and ever watched before from the newest to the oldest:
The Monkey King song from The Monkey King (2023) that aired on Netflix. The story is quite similar to the original.
The Monkey King Theme Song
The Monkey King song from Dragon Ball anime that aired in Japan. This one is an altered story of Sun Wu Kong and his name is Son Goku in Japan.
