The series stars Kevin Yan Kuan and Gan Ting Ting and premieres on Feb 9. I'm ecstatic for this one because I couldn't get enough when it came out thirteen years ago. A part of me still wishes Nicky Wu could have reprised his role as Xiao Shi Yi Lang. After all, he's still super popular, right? I'm also a bit skeptical whether anyone can ever surpass Nicky Wu's version of the character but fingers crossed that it'll be just as good.
This latest adaptation is supposedly unlike any of its predecessors because it will push the boundaries in depicting Xiao Shi Yi Lang as the atypical hero - no longer the noble thief but a misfit who does as he pleases.
