    Found another nice pic! This one has both leads, naisu. Is that a waterfall in the background? Is this after they "retire" from the royal life? xD

    Via this fan article speculating on the upcoming drama.

    The fan was joking about how LFY and GQS's actors already have chemistry from their previous series together rofl

    While he looks good, why do I feel he is too boyish looking to be Long Feiye?
    I know Feiye is very young, around twenty but... description in story make it sounds like he is someone 'older' in aura kind of type.
    I am a little disappointed but who knows I would be surprised?
    But yeah, I am also interested in how they will explain detox system, or perhaps they will just chalk it up as supernatural space power?

    True... We'll see how it turns out I guess.

    tbh I don't expect much, simply because television and books are two different mediums. Even if they follow the plot to the detail, some things will be lost in adaptation, or won't turn out the same as we imagined it. I'm looking forward to the series, but as a work of it's own merit. After all, it's not the author working on it, but somebody else that's the director. It will definitely be different from what we imagine it to be, which often leads to disappointment.

    He might not look like LFY, I certainly imagined him differently (except for the brows, they're spot-on), as well as HYX. In my opinion, the actress is too delicate, but I watched some of her previous work and enjoyed it.

    I want to see how the director envisioned the novel. I expect it will be wildly different from what we've read, and I'm kind of looking forward to seeing just what the director has in mind. My only hope is that he stays true to HYX's character.

    FS doesn't know what to feel after reading this.
    When FS saw the thread title, FS was like WAAAA PEOPLE WHO ARE ALSO WAITING FOR PGC [interest 100000%]
    then reading the content:
    1st page: Oh....it's a bit interesting, though they took out the transmigrated plot and poison stuff and Yang Yang? who is Yang Yang [interest plummets down to 40%] [searches image for an actor named Yang Yang] [finds out he is a BISHIE] [*nosebleeds*] [interest went up to 97%]
    2nd page: uh ... what happened ... [find out LFY will not be played by that bishie named Yang Yang] [Well LFY's actor looks decent at least] [interest down to 80%]
    3rd page: okay okay FS will not get her hopes up anymore [interest down to 66%]
    4th page: ....
    fs isn't really familiar with chinese drama so fs doesn't know what to think of anymore
    *sulks in corner*

    Sorry to say this but i'm very dissapointed of the LF, that guy is too cute to be LF. I couldn't feel/see his coldness or ruthless or whatsoever, so he is far from a Giant iceberg image in my opinion. I don't think i will watch the drama though since it will ruin my imagination of LF T,T.

    I would rather search for Yang Yang >.< Too bad he is so busy with the other dramas. I have watched Legend of Ban Shu and the actor playing LFY isn't that bad. A bit short though...but that might be because of the angle...XD

    That's all right, JJY is short too so they match each other pretty well!

    Another media release! Mostly the same pics, but we got a few extra poster pics too. Take a look at the link below!

    https://www.avirtualvoyage.net/2017...-zhe-han-and-ju-jing-yi-releases-posters.html

    EDIT: Also an article from Dramapanda. Looks like Yu Zheng won't be involved in Legend of Yun Xi, whew!
    http://www.dramapanda.com/2017/07/legend-of-yun-xi-to-commence-filming-in.html

    The director for the drama also directed Legend of Flying Daggers (2016) so maybe we can check that series' trailer for a hint of what LOY will look like:

    *clap clap*

    Filming starts soon so hopefully we get some bts scenes \o/ I wonder if HYX will still work with poison needles though? If she isn't a poison lass how will she know how to work with poisons? It's magical knowledge from being talented in the medical field? :/

    Depends on how much they change the storyline. From what I'm seeing, she has more ties with the medical field than the poisons one currently...thus the Imperial Doctress vibes. Hmmmmmmm..... > - <

    Darn >~< I haven't watched Imperial Doctress but have heard about it. Having another drama like that wouldn't make it interesting at all...too generic...

    No idea~ Filming just started and I don't think there is a estimated release date yet. But HYX isn't a poisons expert in the drama so I would say it is fairly different from the novel.
