If you enjoyed The Destiny of White Snake and are in the mood for more remakes, this one is for you! It is one of two ‘White Snake’ dramas that have yet to make their way to Chinese television. Legend of White Snake 新白娘子传奇 released its first character stills of the cast led by Alan Yu (Ten Miles of Peach Blossoms), Ju Jingyi (Legend of Yun Xi), Pei Zitian (Sweet Combat) and Shane Xiao Yan (The Lost Swordship).
This is not the first time that Alan Yu and Ju Jingyi will act as an on-screen couple. Ju Jingyi previously made an appearance as Alan Yu’s love interest in the 2017 drama Xuan Yuan Sword: Legend of the Han Clouds. Legend of White Snake is adapted from a classic Chinese folktale about a love story between a human and a white snake spirit cultivating to be an immortal.

I like Ju Jingyi. I don't like watching Alan Yu onscreen. His plastic surgery gives his face an uncanny valley feeling.

This looks better than Yang Zi’s version.

Agreed…the green snake in Yang Zi version looks so old compare and she is supposed to be younger.

Ah…Ju Jingyi is also very very plastic surgery if you don't know yet. I don't like either of them, but her acting in LOY was likeable.

I don't think Ju Jing Yi is plastic but even if she is plastic she was smart and got good natural looking surgery unlike Alan's very fake looking surgery. A lot of Chinese actors get obvious looking surgery especially those awful chin implants which look like someone bolted a block of silicone to the bottom of their face.

Actually Yang Zi's version was pretty good if you disregard the cartoon snake lol. It wasn't as tragic and the character Fa Hai wasn't hateful like most other adaptations. Anyways, Alan Yu and Ju Jingyi look good together.

The guy is so baby looking, yz looks like a little girl and he is still babier than her. But there was this one drama they managed to find a girl baby looking enough for him, they were a good matching pair.
