And to be honest, I think that he looks quite decent overall. The main problem is what they did with his hair.
    Look-wise, I find Deng Chao is fine for ZWJ. It's ZZR - they should cast someone younger/look younger and ZM - find someone more beautiful.

    Did I miss this part? Did the old couple died in this series?

    The fighting scenes are nice.
    The "evil" ZZR looks pretty. She should not tie up her hair.
    The Yellow-dressed Yang lady looks pretty too. Looks like a "fatter" (can't think of another word, sorry) of Liu Yifei.

    LOL wkeej. Maybe fleshier? meatier? Haha. IIRC it was Lui Shi Shi who acted as the YDL. She isn't fat or stocky, just has a wider and stronger build than LYF.

    Thanks dictionary. Stronger build is a nice phrase.
    And yes, the "evil" ZZR looks prettier and more sexy than the "nunnery" ZZR. haha

    Found these parts of the series to be confusing:
    1. When did the Yellow-dressed Yang lady steal the manuals from ZZR?
    2. Where did the Ming Cult find the two broken weapons?

    In the military strategy part by XZ, she is seen carrying a big sword. What sword is this? 3.30+

    Watched up to Ep12. Slightly better than 2009 version. My fav scene so far where kid ZWJ walks on the hill then transitions to teen ZWJ.

    One thing this doesn't have: Trade-mark ZJZ scene where a horse rider travels thru water splashing dirty/muddy water everywhere. How can any actor/actress stand this kind of scene?

    I'm probably going to re-watch this show soon but it looks like there isn't much scenes like in Ever Night that would make some unknown characters and or actors/actresses look well enough to be known.....





    It would be nice even if they show villainous characters going about their daily whatever? Perhaps in the next remake, they should focus more on making beautiful scenes with characters that are not so well known?
