I know we were disappointed Janice didn’t get the role but I’m having positive thoughts with Li Yi Tong. She looks so cute and mischievous as a beggar! Acting-wise, we have no clue except for her upcoming drama, Demon Girl, which is airing on June 30th! YESH! I do like that they are using new faces in prominent roles – roles that will get people noticing and talking. Comparison is inevitable but let’s not be too severe. On the other hand, I’m not feeling Yang Xu Wen yet. One really needs to have that special quality for me to accept Guo Jing’s naivety and find him endearing. As a character, he’s too frustratingly nice. Lol.
*good thoughts*

Parents.
I don’t think I have to introduce this man with the white hair anymore. LOL. Such a signature character. My mom’s favorite.
Badass Huang Yao Shi by Michael Miu. EEEE!!!
Zoey Meng Zi Yi as Mu Nian Ci. It’s funny now that I think about, she was Yoona’s maid in Zhao Yun and netizens were complaining how she’s too beautiful to be a maid. Lol.
Chen Xing Xu as Yang Kang. Suave element = not quite there.
Mei Chao Feng by Viola Mi Lu. Girl, where did you go and get such perfectly manicured nails? Wuxia nail salon? XD
Filming locations. Beautiful.
Directed by Jeffrey Chiang (The Myth) and written by Chen Man Ling (The Legend of Magic Mirror), Legend of the Condor Heroes (射雕英雄传) is still filming.

Yet ANOTHER remake of the classic? Li Yi Tong looks so much like Zhang LiYing.

Hum, where is the yellowness? I think she dressed nice as XLN though, the milky white dress is very beautiful. She’s very mature and so identical to Zheng Shuang without the bangs!!
But I prefer her bangs, she’s much cuter with them.

I thought she was co-splaying Little Dragon Girl at first. XD

That hair though… what’s with the man-bangs and the color really… Why can’t they make the hair look normal for once?

Nothing beats the purple wig on Elvis in Chinese Paladin 5! They went free-style for sure there.

I supposed his bangs are to make him have the not-so-smart looks, maybe? I remembered Hu Ge not being a very good Ning Cai Chen in Chinese ghost story with Yang Mi because of his very alert, attentive, and smart looks… so he made the most horrible bookworm ever. But his bangs in Little Fairy finally hit him with the cute bookworm and naive look. His Guo Jing hair style was a funny mess but it did pulled off making him less intelligent considering how smart-looking his face is, and I got used to it eventually. Luckily towards the end it changed as well.
I know, these ancient drama plays, the styling, background, castings, storyline, etc. are always most important and recently none have been really good so far.

Er….the poster looks like it’s a promo for Return of the Condor Heroes (if you ignore the dog-beating stick). The white gown isn’t a really good idea for HR.
The two men look so flower-boyish! My goodness, they all look so young!

This version doesn’t look that bad. I have to agree that the man bang bugs me too. I am really watching this for micheal! ! Now they should of had Felix play one of the great. Or even gallon and Jillian lol

YEAH! Forgotten Felix and Gallon for a long time, that’s totally right, they shouldn’t have missed this good chance else I be expecting another remake within just 2 years only lol jk. But Ariel Lin really set that standard for me that little Huang Rong should be small, I really want to see like a Zhou Dongyu / Tina Tang / Janice Wu one.
I’ll have to trust the guys bangs this time, he looks very smart in modern clothes so he’ll have a hard time playing dumb. Giving him the bangs really helped on making him look like a nice and innocent guy… although it does still also appear a little silly at the same time.
There’s been so much more fantasy dramas lately and I’m real EXCITED for a Wuxia one finally!!!!!

Another remake….. surely they LOVE to remake dramas. Still the 1984 HK version is the best for me. Oey Yong by Yung Mei Ling is the prettiest ever! Nothing beats her big eyes and bunny teeth. Plus, the costumes and hair styles also the best, pretty.
Anyway, Michael Miu as Oey Yong’s father???? OMG!!!! l miss him!!
Have to admit the location is so gorgeous!!

Me too Yung Mei Ling will always be the #1 HY !!! Micheal Mui #1 Yang Kang!!! I actually really like Felix, Jullian and LiYa Peng is GJ! As for Mu Nain Ci, I am ever really interested in this character. This Yang Kang doesn’t look handsome and manly, he looks like a young boy with girly looks.

Late to the party! I wasn’t so keen on them remaking another LOCH because it seems so soon. And the story is still too fresh in my mind. But after giving it a few days to let it all sink in, I actually have something to say.
I think I’m liking this.
3 reasons.
Li Yi Tong (saw her in Demon Girl MVs, she’s cute. Might be a crush, lol)
Zoey Meng Zi Yi (don’t know her, but she’s one of the prettiest Mu Nian Ci, another crush)
Viola Mi Lu (Mei Chao Feng is like Li Mochou, keeps getting younger)
Oh, the costumes are nice too. And who doesn’t know Michael Miu!
Despite my 3 shallow reasons above, I am legit interested in this adaptation. 😀

hahaha,for my first impression ,i think the william yang xu wen not suitable for Guo Jing role,however i’m want to give him a chance ,maybe as the drama progressed it would change my mind.
