A Lenda de Fei (2020)

I honestly thought this drama was gonna be a hit but my expectation for it was way beyond i can imagine. I almost drop this after a couple of episode but i am only watching this because of Yibo and Zanling. What i really hated about this drama was the dubbing. I was so disappointed when they dubbed all the voices like really. Who ever dubbed Yibo voice is horrible. It does not even match him at all.
Storyline. I didnt like how they made yibo a weak man throughout this drama. Honestly if they switch roles it would of been better.
Acting/Music. I love the music n acting wasnt that bad.
ReWatch. Will i rewatch this, maybe if i get really bored and have nothing else to watch i will

Not good

Let's be real here, this drama has Zhao liying and Wang yibo, that's why it's popular, otherwise if it was any other cast, this drama would have flopped so bad. I just started watching this drama only for Wang yibo, this has to be worst Drama ever, the directors and producers really did injustice. I am a fan of XZ and WY, by no mean I am a hater, but really pls don't watch this if you think it's really a time wasting drama. This drama became interesting only after 20 eps for me.

Pros

1. Acting
Wang yibo improved so much in acting. He can control his expressions so well, I am impressed.
Zhao liying is as always perfect but in this drama I don't what happened to her.

2. Stunts
Stunts are really good and I won't emphasize much on that because it's that good.

3. The music/ost goes so well with the drama.

Cons :

1. The female lead is wearing the same costume for 18 eps straight. This drama was made on high budget, but they still forget to change her costumes, which shows. It took 20 eps for Miss chuchu to arrive at the fortress.

2. CGI
the forest and the scenery looks so fake in the drama.

3. Characters
There are more than 100 characters in this drama, in each ep, any new character will show up, so the focus gets diverted from the main lead to these characters. There are so many of them that its boring to watch.

4. Dubbing
The main female lead voice doesn't match her character at all, it's too soft for her character.

5. Many annoying characters
There are many characters in the drama which I find very annoying and worthless, like fei's cousin Sheng and even fei's mother sometimes.

6. No chemistry
We can't see a perfect chemistry between the main leads, because we all know their age gap, I cant bear looking at them, I just feel awkward. (atleast for me)

7. Confusing plot
The drama is really confusing even on ep 20, what's even going on you won't understand anything in it, you will be just spacing out.

8. Cuts
Omg now what to tell y'll about the cuts, they have choppy cuts ( idk how to describe it) but its very annoying. It shows unprofessionalism of theirs.


Ignore my English pls, as it's not my first language

LOF

you can't just watch it because both leading actors are beautiful but incredible acting by Zhaoli and WYibo. loving every bit of it. WYibo has done great job acting with the veteran Zhaoli who is perfectionist. So far I am not bored and music is great in every episodes. Martial arts acting or wuxia drama takes a lot toll on artist but Zhaoli is incredible after having a baby able to manage this type of hard work. Yibo is a dancer so it maybe easier for him too but it's all about perseverance and persistence, WYibo has shown that. Over all, acting, facial expression, music, backgrounds is great. Supporting both Zhaoli and WYibo.

Amazing!! Ignore all the hate reviews!!!

As a huge fan of both Liying and Yibo I loved this drama. It was so funny and sad but overall super enjoyable. I loved how they focused on the side character love story as well and followed their journey and not only Zhuo Fei and Xie Yun's. The cast was ultimately one of the best. Everyone portrayed the character so well. I love the ending music song and the one Yibo sang too. Will definitely watch again to support my fave actor and actress. Although the set looked fake they had to film almost most of the scenes in a forest so props for them because that it was amazing. It so cute to see Yibo as such a loud character compared to Lan Wangji. Overall, loved pretty much everything in here.

Could be better

Summary: loosen your high hopes. Watch the first 20 episodes then fast forward. Waste of time. With recycled setting. All blah blah with almost all predictable plot. I miss Princess Agents.

Pro:
-one of the best actions scenes. Very well though of.
-actress is a good one like in Princess Agents(not the best in playing out emotions)
- some good plot. Really generic when you think about it
- Good CG, even my old mom likes it

Cons
- lots of camera zoom and prolonged pauses. So boring
- unnecessary scenes like prolong chit chat of where is this and that.
-some recycled scenes that makes the adventure boring. They’re running in the same set.
- Recycled setting/CG
- zero zero chemistry. It’s all cutesy-pie, but it doesn’t pull you. The action scenes will pull you more.
- Gayish 3rd prince and the other guys who liked the lead actress seem gayish. They should get a more many demeanor to make it believable.
- Gayish type of scenes with the main actor and poison guy and many other scenes with main actor.
Makes one wonder who wrote this and directed this show.

Mesmerising

This drama is absolutely worth watching, with two great leads - Wang Yibo and Zhao Liying. The two of them demonstrate the best onscreen chemistry I had ever seen in Chinese dramas. Their acting was very natural. I think this drama is underrated on Mydramalist.

Yibo continued to mesmerise with his good looks and excellent acting. He is very versatile and did equally well in this drama as a playful and mischievous young man as he did in The Untamed as a cold stern stony face. I am impressed with his acting skills - his facial expression is remarkable - he can talk without saying anything - just like the way he did in The Untamed. In this drama, his face would lit up whenever he saw Fei (acted by Liying). His jealous reaction when a love rival appeared on this scene is likely to make you crack up.

Liying has this amazing ability to develop this onscreen chemistry with her male counterparts in all the dramas I had seen her in.

The drama was not so emotionally intense and there were humour scattered throughout. But as a drama, it would keep you captivated as you wonder who was Xie Yun, what was going to happen next, the mystery behind the 'Hai tian yi ser' and the various dramatic events. The pace was good until about episode 38 when there were a few scenes when the story was not making much progress - seemed to me like time fillers. However, I do not think they account for more than an episode put together.

I watched the drama a second time and liked it even better the second time. Not caught up with wondering where the story was going, I could focus on the acting and appreciate it even more.

However, I must suggest that translators stop using 'legend of' as drama titles - they are so overused, they cheapen the value of the drama, and sound so cliche. This drama could be simply called 'Fei' or 'Shrouded Myth' or 'Love Beyond'.

My first Wuxia Drama

This was my first Wuxia Drama and I am glad that I watched this first. Tbh as it was my first Wuxia drama I have no idea what to expect. I just started watching this because Yibo was there. This drama had its own flaws but overall it's was good drama.

First of all the story. The story was good. However there were too many characters that I forgot half of people name or didn't bother to remember. But then again this might be how wuxia drama normally are. The editing of this drama could have been better. There were some scene which felt the odd and seem like the order of the scene was wrong. For an example instead of doing 1,2,3 and 4 it seem like they did 1,4, 3 and 2.
This drama also had some great fighting scene. However, those scene were minimal. There is one fighting scene which left quite a big impression one me. So I was looking forward to more scene like that but there weren't much.

Well I have nothing to say about the cast because they did that amazing. All the cast members played their character so well. They brought the character to life. Tbh in this drama I saw Yibo in another light. He brought the character Xie Yun to life and I have to say he became one of the most memorable character. For Zhao Li Ying this was my first time seeing her act and I have to say she is amazing actress. She played the role Zhou Fei so well. She brought every emotion of Zhou Fei to reality.
Well when these two actors come togeather then there is no doubt there will be a power couple. I really love this CP. I wish they could have more scene in later half of the drama tho.

The music was really good for this drama. It suited the scene so well. I really love the intro and ending theme of this drama.

As for re-watch I am not someone re- watches drama. And also I don't think if I watch also I want to watch the whole series maybe I will watch the couple scene and some of the fighting scene.

The main reason why I liked this drama a lot or was satisfying to watch, maybe because of the Xie Yun and Zhou Fei. I really loved the couple, the chemistry that they had portrayed and their cute interaction. It was too good that it kept me hooked until the end.

What wrong with y'all rating this so low?

I loved this storyline, I am glad there was no competition on women loving men and vice versa. In this story, everyone stayed in their lane (relationship). Finally, a storyline where I can relax and not throw a shoe at my TV. Zanilia Zhao, so glad she is back, playing Zhou Fei she did an awesome job like she always does. Wang Yi Bo, nodding, that's my Rapper, Dancer... love him... what a great and talented artist he is. His acting skills are so on point, perfectionist maybe? He was absolutely stunning in this drama. The martial art in this was superb and exciting to see. I wish I could collect all the styles when I was younger. The visuals, OMG, the cave where Xie Yun's master lived in. I wouldn't mind finding a cave-like and living out the rest of my life. Those visuals were perfect! You have to watch this with an open mind.

TOP 10

TOP 10
Sabemos quando é um drama de nível 10 quando estamos tao embrulhados na história nem vemos o tempo a passar.
Quando não nos dá aquela coceira de carregar na tecla de 10 sec. toda vez que se torna chato.
Esses decidamente são os meus favoritos,
A história e o enredo super bem contruídos, personagens interessante para qual quer idade ver,
Os casais 4 casais com histórias diferentes que se cruzam entre si,
Um pequeno senão...
O nosso casal principal mesmo só no final da historia quando vi a química a funcionar eu, os via mais como Irmãos.
Talvez seja porque os vi aos dois (Wang Yibo e Zhao Li Ying) em outros trabalhos distintos gostai mais deles com os outros parceiros. Principalmente nosso Wang Yibo que muitas das vezes a sua personagem me fazia lembrar (Wei Ying),
Passando há frente e pensando melhor vi como arelação deles cresceu passando o tempo e passou de amizade a amor nos pequenos pormenores e conforme a nossa Zhou foi crescendo na história.

A good drama that could have been excellent

When I started to watch I expected it to be excellent because the plot is based on the "Bandits" novel and FL ( Zhao Li Ying ) is one of my favorite actresses and she delivered now too .

Even though the drama was good, it didn't quite live up to my expectations because there was some unfortunate flaws. The worst shortcomings were related to ML's (Wang Yi Bo ) character - both for his character and actors performance.

ML's character was supposed to be intelligent, thoughtful and charming but what he delivered was a smug and stupid teenager. Most obviously, this was far too difficult a role for Wang Yi Bo.
After watching a few episodes, I wished the drama didn't have a male lead at all - he could have had some kind of supporting role. The problem was made worse by the fact that there are a lot of conversation scenes between FL and ML in the drama. This became annoying because the ML's lines and visual expression were completely contradictory - at the same time, their romance became completely implausible.

PS. Why there nowadays are so many Chinese dramas witch are spoiled by poorly performing male leads and / or by poorly written male leads characters ?
Can't writers really come up with other types of male characters than manipulative narcissists or poodles ?

Find your way to your own happiness, not others' version of it.

Is being in a position to rule the world and letting it go for a normal life not being ambitious and irresponsible?

A dynasty that was dethroned and the descendant that focused his life on revenge and taking back what's his, that story has been told a million times.
Here we have a dethroned prince who would have been emperor who tried at first but realized early on his temperament wasn't fit to being "the owner of the world". Why? Because he isn't cruel enough.
We meet him as a wanderer who is trying to find his place in a world, he has no "holy mission", he's just someone that wants to lead a happy normal life and a compassionate soul that will help those who he sees having a hard time.

A hero that takes every evil people as his duty to exterminate and always puts that above everything else, we've also been told that story.
But here we have a lead who just loves martial arts, she enjoys learning them, and more than fame or being the best or solving all the world's problem, she just can't witness injustice and pass it by. She just can't.
More than a mission, she has really strong no-negotiable principles that she's fully ready to die by.

What's most intriguing, this drama addresses that, it shows the character being aware of the risks and at time doubting and second guessing and I loved that. Is wanting a normal life not having ambition? No, you just have a different ambition than others. An ambition to be happy as you.

In this drama we encounter our leads helping others and becoming legends for it in their way to actually just live their lives, find themselves and their happiness. I personally think there's no grander mission than that.

The leads relationship also was addressed in such an splendid way. I love how this drama didn't shy to show them facing their own disagreements even when these were born out of qualities they love about the other. It's also one of those rare relationships where there's no really any stupid misunderstanding, these two know and trust each other and that is a constant throughout the story.
There's no passionate kissing though, but there's kissing, and I honestly loved their relationship development. First, they are friends and family. Second, they are absolutely head over heels for each other. It's that order. Is there longing? There is. Are there difficulties? There are. But even when they are apart (very briefly), they stand together. Is there jealousy? Very little, and almost in jest, but there are some moments too... even so they trust and respect each other too much to be overly possessive of the other.

Apart from the leads relationship, there're a lot of characters worth knowing in this drama. The secondary couples' love story was "meh" to me, but every other master or guide along the way was precious to me. And the friendships made along the way were too.

I loved this, I wish it had a better rating for it deserved it.

A good drama with a huge potential but lacking the depth.

I enjoyed this drama a lot because of the story line but it was lacking in many ways. I wish the directors had put the extra effort to refine the script which was lacking at many places.

Politics: They didn't dwell into this aspect at all even though it was one of the most important aspect. Everything was happening for political power. Rather they dwelled into Good & Evil. Which was ridiculous at times considering the empire was doing nothing to those people if they were really evil just because they are from Martial Arts world. The dynasty got changed but the old empire Army was still fighting for the empire under the new emperor ( this is completely ridiculous)

Secondary Characters: The FL going on campaigns was understandable. However the other two SFL were unimportant. They only got in the way. However they always accompanied the group. It would have been better if they were given some fighting power or kept them out completely. They became scene filler making the drama uninteresting.

Consistency: Throughout the journey the drama was very inconsistent. The characters smartness and strength were changed according to the requirement of the scene. For Eg: The SML was supposed to be smart and clever but I never felt that side of him except for the few episodes where it got mentioned.

Romance: Even though it was not the important aspect of drama but Considering the amount of time they spent on the Main Leads flirting, it felt very lacking. At times I would even doubt whether they actually love each other. The passion was just lacking.
