New Jin Yong Wuxia Universe announces air dates for the remaining Four Parts of Drama Series

I’m gonna try to understand what’s going on here Lol. I thought it was just a 5-part drama series focusing on the Five Greats of the Condor trilogy from Jin Yong’s novels. But now it looks like there’s a main part, the drama that aired last year The Legend of Heroes (金庸武侠世界), a remake of Legend of the Condor Heroes, then there’s a sequel/The Legend of Heroes Season 2, with no promo in sight. The second part consists of a 5-part drama series; with part 1 Hot Blooded already aired last year. Are you confused yet? XD

So in order…

(Main) The Legend of Heroes (金庸武侠世界) Aired 7/2024
(Main) The Legend of Heroes Season 2 (金庸武侠世界 第二季)
(1) The Legend of Heroes: Hot Blooded (新金庸武侠世界: 铁血丹心) Aired 7/2024
(2) New Jin Yong Wuxia Universe: Nine Yin True Sutra (新金庸武侠世界: 九阴真经) Airing 7/26/25~
(3) New Jin Yong Wuxia Universe: Eastern Heretic and Western Venom (新金庸武侠世界: 东邪西毒) Airing 7/31/25
(4) New Jin Yong Wuxia Universe: Southern Emperor and Northern Beggar (新金庸武侠世界: 南帝北丐) Airing 8/5/2025
(5) New Jin Yong Wuxia Universe: Duel on Mount Hua (新金庸武侠世界: 华山论剑) Airing 8/10/25

Each part has about 6 to 8 episodes.

Tony Yang’s Demi-Gods and Semi-Devils drama adaptation with Bai Shu and Zhang Tian Yang to air on CCTV

After two years of zero promotion, the new adaptation of Jin Yong’s novel Demi-Gods and Semi-Devils suddenly gets an airing date. I guess we are used to the quick announcement of premieres by now? If you have never watched any of the previous adaptations, the story has a lot of characters and relationships, please check out Wiki! My personal favorite is TVB’s 1997.

Airing 8/14~

Zhang Kai Tai and Jiang Zhen Yu lead new remake of Jin Yong’s Flying Fox of Snowy Mountain

Did Jin Yong perhaps sign a contract somewhere that all his new novel-to-drama adaptations must be headlined by new faces? The recent adaptations have all been really decent so far so I’m hoping the same rings true for this production. I have only ever watched the TVB version in 1999 with Sunny Chan and Charmaine Sheh. I both loved and hated it; heavy changes from the novel. Lol. I watched till the end because Sunny and Charmaine looked so damn good and sweet together. I was ready to spit blood if I they don’t get a happy ending. xD

Back then TVB background music for their wuxia series is top-notch. It creates the mood for me to remember the series fondly until this day.

First stills for Demi-Gods and Semi-Devils 2019 with Tony Yang, Bai Shu, and Zhang Tian Yang

A little behind but I finally laid eyes on the first set of stills for the new adaptation of Demi-Gods and Semi-Devils. I’m so jaded now. Looking at new adaptations of Jin Yong’s novels nowadays, I can’t help but sneeze out a laughter. I’m happy for some of the actors you know, being able to breathe life into some iconic characters, but at the same time, there’s a feeling of miscast as well. I know, too early to say.
