“Come out, damned spot! Out, I command you! “
Upcoming super cast Legend of Ancient Sword 古剑奇谭 released the first of a series of songs. This theme to one of the two titular characters, Baili Tusu (nicknamed Susu), is sung by Li Yifeng and written by Lu Hu. The MV focuses on Susu’s relationship with his mother (Li Xiaolu) and love interest (Yang Mi).
In addition, the OST cast has been announced to feature an all-star cast of Anson Hu, Yu Kewei, Jeff Chang, and Zhang Jie. I can see this easily being one of the best OST’s outside of ee-Media.
The title of the song, 剑伤 (literally Sword Wounds), is a double reference to wounds caused by the Sword and wounds of the Sword as embodied by Li Yifeng’s character.
Yang Mi’s teaser with a glimpse of Zhang Jie’s theme song:
I’m really excited for this drama :P (In China right now, Hunan TV seems to just be alternating between ads for Ancient Sword and Dad? Season 2!) Ma Tianyu + Zheng Shuang look like they’re going to be super adorable! (And Zheng Shuang, Ma Tianyu’s costumes really aren’t too bad, actually…I think Yang Mi and Zhang Meng got the short straw this time :( I wish they’d stuck closer to the original game designs for Yang MI’s costume >.<)
And a ZGF-y OST from Anson Hu sweetens the deal~
