    Thank you for the opening and ending videos, they're very nicely done, especially the opening video. Great to see Ekin and Gordan together again, they had very good chemistry in the Young and Dangerous movies. Ekin looks really cool and suave in here (just like most of his costume roles)..reminds me of his portrayal of Hua Yingxiong in "A man called Hero".

    I'm surprised that Ekin would actually shave his head for this role.

    Yah the kind of heroic Cantonese songs that Roman Tam used to sing as opening themes for TVB series. This opening theme is very good.

    That's because it is a song from the 80's. This was the themesong for the ATV's Legendary Fok, which was also a series on Huo Yuan Jia (amazing series btw).

    I can't wait to watch this series. The ending theme is beautiful too!

    LOL they just reused the original song for the new version.
    What's the name of the young actor who played HYJ? He's got real martial arts.

    yes, it seems as if there's a trend to make remakes...and then use the same songs for the remakes these days.

    he seems to have less movies these days. his popularity might be dwindling...his hair can't save his him. j/k

    Do you mean in Legendary Fok? That is 黃元申 Huang Yuan Shen (Wong Yuen Sun in canto). Yup, he does know martial arts. I read that after he finished the role of HYJ, he became a monk.

    I heard ekin will be in malaysia too on the 4th Nov to promote the dvd

    Those that are watching the series, how are u finding it so far? I reckon they could have got better prettier female leads :P:P Wish they had the orignal actors to dub their own voices too :P

    Is this a mainland series or Hong Kong series?

    I really like the look/feel of this series. It is very cinematic with its dark and muted tones as opposed to the bright colors that TVB series tend to prefer.

    Who are the main actresses? I really like Huo Yuan Jia's wife but he seems interested in the daughter of the rival family. If anyone could tell me who the actresses are and what previous work they've done, I'd be really grateful! Unfortunately, there's not much English information on this series.

    What is Jordan Chan's role in this series? Somehow the image of him being Wei Xiao Bo still leaves an imprint in my mind. It would be nice to see him in a more serious role.

    Jordan plays Chen Zhen... the same character played by Bruce Liang in ATV's Legendary Fok and Donnie Yen in 1995 ATV's Fist of Fury.

    Its a mainland series, but the producer is HK director Benny Chan (the director of "Divergence" - an ekin movie)...

    The 2 female leads are new...dont think they have done any previous work esp Zhou Mu Ying 周牧茵who plays the rival's daughter) she is still uni studying acting...and Huo's wife, her name is Ding Li 丁莉not quite sure which previous work she's been in um...)

    Seriously, Jordan's a bit too old to be playing Chen Zhen.
