Professor Hung Wei-chu of the National Central University's Department of Chinese says that Kun Opera's artistic roots run deep. In the past, all Peking Opera performers studied Kun Opera in order to have a firm foundation and were fluent in both it and Peking Opera.
中央大學中文系教授洪惟助說，昆劇藝術根底深厚，以往京劇演員都要學昆劇，才能有紮實的基礎，所謂「昆亂不擋」。
