Synopsis of The Legend of the Condor Heroes

The Legend of the Condor Heroes is about a dumb young guy called Guo Jing (³¢ ¹t ) who is played by Julian Cheung Chi Lam (±i ´¼ ÀM ). Before he was born, his father was killed by a Jin prince, and his mother was forced to flee to Mongolia. There, Guo Jing was raised together with Genghis Khan's daughter, Tuolei (©ì ¹p ) and daughter, Huazheng (µØ ºå ), whom he is bethrothed to. He was taught to fight by the Seven Freaks (¦¿ «n ¤C ©Ç ).

Later, Guo Jing goes down to China, where he is left alone by his teachers to explore the world. Enter Athena, as Huang Rong, (¶À »T ), dressed as a little begger. They befriend each other, and Guo Jing finds out that his "brother" is actually a girl. His feelings change from that of brotherly concern to love for her. Both of them make a cute couple, as one is rather dumb, and the other a child prodigy. Their love for one another is pure and strong, and it does not come to Guo Jing's mind till much later that he has a fiancee back in Mongolia.

Guo Jing and Huang Rong go through a lot together, and meet many famous people. Their skills improve a great deal, and their marriage is disapproved by Huang Rong's father, one of the top pugilists in the world. However, they managed to hang on, and are finally married in the end! A really nice happy ending for a happy couple!!

Athena really shines in the show, and her acting prowness is fully shown. She easily changes from a cheeky and playful young girl, to someone who is emotionally fragile and depends on Guo Jing for many things. She looks really cute, and I suggest that those of you who haven't watched the show get hold it this moment and watch it now!!
