Awesome! Itās such a great story, Iām so glad it got translated. The same publisher published the 1st book of The Return of the Condor Heroes in 2023. Itās called A Past Unearthedā¦ I think they plan to publish the rest of the story in 2 or 3 more books but only the first book is available now. I havenāt read it because I wanted to wait till all of them are out.
a very late reply butā¦ The series was published in English just a few years ago as a 4 book series titled, The Legend of the Condor Heroes. Each book has a different title. The 1st book is titled, A Hero Born by Jin Yong, translated by Anna Holmwood.
For anyone interested, the series is a really fun read!
Had to have that last word, good for you! When you want to be petty you really take it all the way! Iām impressed. Congratulations: You win the prize for trolliest Troll š§š„! Btw, your opinion is wrong. š
KJH looked like the bad-guy when he dropped out of Time in 2018 but in 2021 when the reasons came out why he dropped it, he was basically cleared of any wrongdoing and everyoneās anger refocused on SYJ, who is still yet to make a full comeback. Also, Iron Family has an excellent cast with a lot of popular actors. One actorās old āscandalā does not account for the low-budget production.
I love this drama. Iāve watched it twice. Itās not a masterpiece but I enjoyed the humor so much that I was able to overlook various shortcomings. The FL is hilarious. I loved her in this. I think you should give it a try. If you enjoy this type of humor I think you will enjoy the show on the whole.
I read the novel, then watched the two newer adaptations. Finally, I tried this one and though itās production is really dated, itās by far my favorite. If you can forgive it for its age, it is a solid adaptation and truest to the source material. Linghu Chong is one of my favorite Jin Yong characters.
Not cancelled. The whole series has already been filmed but China changed their rules again this year.
Since 2020, I think, dramas havenāt been allowed to release more than 40 episodes in the same year. Production companies had been getting around this by releasing multiple seasons. For example a 30 episode season 1 followed a few weeks or months later by a 30 episode season 2.
The rules changed again in 2024. Dramas arenāt allowed to release more than 40 episodes, regardless of whether it is broken into multiple seasons. So, this drama, being 60 total episodes, canāt release the second half until sometime next year. I donāt think they knew this when they were shootingā¦ So, we get 30 episodes this year and 30 more sometime in the future.
Do you mean Viki doesnāt pay the subtitle teams who do the translations!? If so, Iām really sad to hear it.…
Viki subs are the bestā¦ I donāt know what the actual situation is but, here in the US, I remember seeing Viki advertising jobs for subtitle translators on the job search site, Indeed. It was a paid job. So, at least some of the translators must be getting paid. Maybe not all thoughā¦ I donāt know.
The 2nd half has already been shot but the Chinaās rules changed this year. Dramas canāt put out a second season within a year if the total amount of episodes exceed 40.
And this isnāt a summary of the Condor Trilogy. It is an adaptation of Legend of the Condor Heroes, the first story in the trilogy. Yang Guo (Named after Yang Kang and Guo Jing) is the main character in the next story, Return of the Condor Heroes.
i wished it was on netflix, viki still doesn't pay subbers
Do you mean Viki doesnāt pay the subtitle teams who do the translations!? If so, Iām really sad to hear it. Vikiās subtitles are always way better than Netflix, imo.
I watched My DEAREST, The Veil, Awaken and Hot stove league, All of them are NamKoong Min's Dramas.Is there any…
NamKoong Min is great in Good Manager, which has the same writer as Fiery Priest and Vincenzo. If you enjoy the humor in those dramas, youāll enjoy Good Manager. As always, NKM is amazing in it, heās hilarious.
I disagree. Like any drama, there are plenty of legitimate reasons to criticize this. Itās fine to have strong…
I agree. Such low ratings are generally vindictive. But after reading your posts, it strikes me as a bit ironic that youāre upset by others being negative or spiteful.
I want to watch the Hong Kong versions of Jin Yongās work, this one in particular, but they are hard to find.
For anyone interested, the series is a really fun read!
