King of Saigon is a reminiscing of the images of a faded American golden age during the 60s, which was the last time that the city was called Saigon before the US pulled out of the Vietnam War and it was renamed Ho Chi Minh City. It’s also a glamorous reference because under the French occupation of colonial Vietnam, Saigon was once called “La Perle de l’Extrême-Orient”.
