RPM Posted March 9, 2018 Author Share Posted March 9, 2018 Booting Ceremony Only Alan was present at the Booting Ceremony Spoiler There are a few reasons to be excited about this. For one, Alan Yu finally takes the lead! He's been a supporting character in every costume drama that he's starred in that it'll be nice to see him stepping into leading roles for a change. He also reunites with Ju Jing Yi (Legend of Yun Xi) who played his love interest in Xuan Yuan Sword: Legend of the Han Clouds2017. They really didn't get enough screentime then (you'll know why when you watch it), so it'll be cute to see their couple pairing getting another chance.

RPM Posted July 4, 2018 Author Share Posted July 4, 2018 Legend of White Snake led by Ju Jingyi and Alan Yu wraps filming As this remake is looking very much like an idol drama, there's bound to be skeptics who are worried about another childhood favorite headed for ruin. After watching Ju Jingyi in Legend of Yunxi, I'm quite optimistic if not downright excited for this especially since she reunites with Alan Yu Menglong from Xuan Yuan Sword: Legend of the Han Clouds. Also in the cast are Xiao Yan (The Legends) and Pei Zitian (The Taoism Grandmaster). Alan Yu finished filming his scenes back in June while Ju Jingyi just wrapped in the past couple days. It seems like the leading ladies are almost always the last ones standing though I supposed it makes sense with Ju Jingyi playing the titular white snake.

vintage_chutzpah Posted September 1, 2018 Share Posted September 1, 2018 I tried to watch the one with Yang Zi and then I learned it didn't give an appropriate happy ending, so I just dropped it. Is this another tragedy version? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ash1999 Posted September 1, 2018 Share Posted September 1, 2018 Can't wait for this because of JJY. I adore her in Legend of Yunxi so eagerly waiting for this one. She looks absolutely beautiful in historical dramas. Though, I am just not big on remakes but will watch this for her. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Natha Calista Posted September 20, 2018 Share Posted September 20, 2018 Usually i avoid to watch all familiar stories (especially, i still can't move on from 1993 version), but for Ju Jingyi and Alan Yu, i'm gonna watch it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Posted September 22, 2018 Share Posted September 22, 2018 This is another adaptation of The Legend of Madame White Snake? I hope that the plot will not deviate from the original classic too much. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RPM Posted October 17, 2018 Author Share Posted October 17, 2018 This is not the first time that Alan Yu and Ju Jingyi will act as an on-screen couple. Ju Jingyi previously made an appearance as Alan Yu's love interest in the 2017 drama Xuan Yuan Sword: Legend of the Han Clouds. Legend of White Snake is adapted from a classic Chinese folktale about a love story between a human and a white snake spirit cultivating to be an immortal.

Sobayaki Posted October 31, 2018 Share Posted October 31, 2018 There is a trailer! The visuals look nice. The CG doesn't look too jarring from this trailer. I LOVE how they incorporated the original theme song. Anyone know when the release date is? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
