<p>I have seen number "33" in some of Chinese drama and novels. I wonder what is the historical meaning behind 33? Especially 33天？</p>

<p>For example, there is a drama named "失恋33天", which has an English title version of "Love is not Blind". However, I couldn't understand the meaning between 33天 still.</p>

The sound of 三 is close to that of 生 (live, life, alive, active). 三三不盡，六六無窮。It means something is alive forever. I do not know the reason why the author chooses 33. But 33 looks like a happy number. The break up ( 失戀) is unhappy.  It looks some dramatic elements in the 33 days after the the unhappy breakup. This is my speculation.

you cannot really relate the Chinese name and its English name, 33天 just means thirty-three days, no other special meaning in Chinese
