And it's written in the pages, in those fair prose of Louis Cha YG bears deadly resemblance to his notorious Daddy. It's very crucial to the plot as well, because there are too many incidences where ppl judged YG by looks alone because he is a dead ringer of YK.
And he's on the fringe of the right age of the role, in a year or 2, he'll be too old.
That was the kneejerk in my head for YEARS and I've gone as far as swearing I will stop fangirling him if he lowers himself doing a hopeless YuZheng PoC multiple times. BUT...RoCH is the exception, a very curious case. I can't think of a reason any working CN actor will turn down a YG, ever

It is the most mass popular wuxia novel ever. It reads like a Harlequin romance with a splash of wuxia that's why. I thought I was an anomaly when I first read my LouisChas and hated it. To this day I hold the opinion parts of it is vile.. I've never finished it in my 3 attempts spanning decades. This is the wuxia that most successfully breaks into mainstream (yeah wuxia is so not, at least not for older gen

Yup he's still vv hawt!! Boy has he got some super anti-aging gene in him! SIGH But I have to agree with @autumnsoliloquy, if YMM's remake is guaranteed (with stamp & chop) to be a turd, I'd rather Lao Yuan stay as far away as possible. IMHO he's really too good to be in another farce. However, the only reason he shld ever act in the remake is if YMM decides to do a 360 take on RoCH & go all brokeback for the remake. I'd so rather watch him make out with another equally cute guy than a fake XLN!
lol You make me want to read XAJW. Or maybe I should just watch the drama, that way I won't feel as bad when I do watch the drama and it turns out all wrong.
O___o nonononono Hon. I don't get how u can not feel bad as in mentally insulted watching a Yumama. WHY watch stinky crap for REAL that's guaranteed to be stinky!?!?!?
The book, is still, till this day, one of my best thing in print ever imo. Sentimentally, it's my favorite. I'm not sure how much is lost in translation though. imo it's the hardest LC to adapt. So in that sense Yu is being a cunning twat to shamelessly make a silly spoof out of it and call it a day.
I think I'm the only target group that should be watching Yumama's Swordsman....just to stab the heck out of it.
Actually my ideal casting would be Yang Mi as XLN and YH as YG, heheheh! Although there's no way he's gonna have YSS or Chen Xiao not in one of the main leads. I'm actually looking forward to Yu Zheng's ROCH fanfic. I'm definitely all for fanfics...just got back from a marathon Chris Nolan Batman weekend sensation and a loooooovve that the "Robin" character in Dark Knight Rises is given such a cool rewrite!

Yes. Yes I do. :) Though I love JG&RH, my eyes... were not on them if Yang Kang was there.
