Much better promotional stills and music video for Three Heroes and Five Gallants this time around. I guess they heard the collective sigh we sent them the last round. The fantasy drama Green Hill Fox Legend (Legend of the Nine-Tailed Foxes) also reveals its opening theme video as well so I just grouped them together. I like both songs! 🙂
Happy Friday!! *going to work*
Three Heroes and Five Gallants stills:
I have posted this wonderful picture before but since they wanted to trick me, I’ll just post it again. The full glory in uniform!
How many times do we have to see this pose with a different background?? Lol.
Judge Bao!

Here for Yan Kuan, Chen Xiao, and Wang Kai <3
The song for 5 Gallants has a great tune + instruments but the singer's voice ruins the song
I like Yisa Yu's song. Nice melody and nice voice 🙂

Haha The fox legend MV also looks pretty good IMO. I’m personally really interested in Gina and Wang Kai’s story the most. It looks tragic, but also really hopeful at the end. Plus I love Nick and Gina’s really one of my new favs from last year.

My fav scene of them is at 1:42 when Gina grabs Nick’s arm. Her face looks so sad and desperate, and it matches with the timing of the song.

I dunno cuz I dropped Legend of Qin like after ep 1 but people I know who’d seen the series (albeit vomiting blood most of the time) said the drama story is NOTHING like the original. They changed so much character backgrounds (gender-bending, making a prince into a thief, etc.) and changed the story so much that fans of the original story got so pissed off. The Legend of Qin drama has been universally panned by audiences and critics and especially by fans of the original material, so I guess it can’t be good…

Provided they stick to the original novel (no guarantees though cuz this is Tangren … look what they did to Legend of Qin), WK and Gina’s story has a happy ending 🙂

Wait, Shimo, what exactly happened in LoQ after ep 6? I stayed true and dropped it, so I haven’t seen any of it after ep 6. I mean at ep 6, it was already going of a very very deep cliff into a whole other realm but it was still recognizable for the most part, vaguely…in the broadest sense of the word. But I hear despite this changes and how much I hated those changes, it’s supposed to be decent. Did it take a dive? I really don’t want to watch it, and I won’t cuz it’ll just ruin my day, but I can’t help it; I’m really curious.

Oh dear, Wang Kai and Gina… so angsty, so dramatic, so gorgeous, so HOT together! I would probably watch 9 Fox for them only, since I’m not sure the story is my cup of tea. Their scenes in the MV burn my screen :)). Did they give Chilian’s whip to Wang Kai’s character? LOL.
On the other hand, I’m sorry, but I burst into laughter when Yan Kuan appears smirking with that pornstach LOLOLOLOL. The video itself is pretty underwhelming, but the song reminds me a lot to old TVB period/wuxia dramas :). I hope at least they have decent fighting choreography. I actually quite like Chen Xiao’s styling.

The pornstache looks ridiculous but hopefully he only uses it as a disguise and not for a long time in the drama…
Chen Xiao is gorgeous <3
I only wanna see heaps of fighting cuz it's Zhan Zhao + Bai Yutang, so there should be heaps of fighting. Plus I like Yan Kuan and Chen Xiao so as long as these 2 have the majority of the screen time then I'll be happy.

Let there be lotsa fightings! And I hope they will tone down the romance bit (a little concerned knowing there’s Zheng Shuang there though). If this turns out to be more like old TVB dramas, I’m game!

The original novel focuses on the crime solving, justice for the people, defending the innocent, and taking down bad guys with epic wuxia fights. Zhan Zhao and Bai Yutang have this big rivalry cuz Zhan Zhao is the “Imperial Cat” tasked with arresting the “5 Mice” (a groups of Robin Hoods with Bai Yutang as the Leader). Bai Yutang and Zhan Zhao have duels all the time but Zhan Zhao is the more experienced fighter and eventually Bai Yutang helps Judge Bao cuz he’s so moved by what a great official he is in helping the citizens and getting justice for the people. There’s a lot of heroism and righteousness/idealism in the novel, which is what I want to see in the drama.
So yeah, I dun wanna see any of that dog blood melodramatic romance shit cuz that stuff should be in romance dramas, NOT crime solving wuxia dramas! However, the placement of Zheng Shuang in all the promos and stuff makes me worry about how much screen time she’ll hog and I’m so not here for that shit. Oh well, I can always just skip her bits and watch the Zhan Zhao / Bai Yutang bits 🙂

TVB dramas may be shit now but their earlier stuff was great. They got the balance just right and they kept the focus on where it should be and left the romance stuff as a background. The way they did the wuxia series and the modern detective dramas were really good – the wuxia dramas focused on wuxia and the detective dramas focused on crime solving.
This is why shit like Love Me If You Dare epic failed cuz they focused on shit stuff while totally ignoring the good stuff (the crime solving, mystery, etc.)

<3 your comment Shimokuren, Couldn't have worded better about Zhan Zhao and Bai Yu Tang hopefully will focus more action than romance.

🙂 I’ve been following the Judge Bao drama series since I was a kid (y’know, the old version from way back?), and every time it gets to the bit with Zhan Zhao + 5 Mice (Bai Yutang) I used to always ask my mom: “Why don’t they make a story about Zhan Zhao + Bai Yutang + their Jianghu backstories? There’s so much character history there they could make a whole series based on that alone!” Mom would always reply that she didn’t know but she hopes that one day they would!
That was back in the old days (like 10+ years ago), so you can imagine my happiness when I heard about this drama being made and with my dream cast Yan Kuan as Zhan Zhao and Chen Xiao as Bai Yutang! This drama is one of my most anticipated drama of the year, so I really hope they make it good – it’ll be like a childhood dream come true if they do! 🙂

Yes! I think he’s disguising also. In this world, a stache is all they need to become a different person. 😛
