About The New Adventures of Chor Lau Heung

Chu Liuxiang, known in the jianghu as the Chief of Bandits, moves with a lightness that seems almost supernatural and leaves a trace of fragrance wherever he goes. When a daring heist centers on the Amber Guanyin, a priceless relic said to house a carved wooden figurine linked to the legendary Li Xunhuan, Chu dives into a palace world of shadows and intrigues. Inside the opulent corridors he encounters Sikong Xing'er, the daughter of the infamous thief Sikong Zhaixing, and her sworn sister Su Rongrong. As guards close in and misdirection multiplies, the trio is pulled into a dangerous dance of deception, loyalty, and evolving agendas. The memory of Li Xunhuan hangs over the tale, shaping every choice.

Directed by Wong Jing, this 2001 adaptation breathes Gu Long classics into TV drama with sleek action and witty plotting.

As a late 90s into early 2000s wave of Gu Long adaptations, this series nods to Chor Lau Heung's enduring appeal while updating fight choreography and cinematography for a modern audience. The fragrance motif remains a signature cue fans recognize.

Viewers praise the brisk pacing and polished set pieces while the show examines trust and reputation in a world where alliances shift and danger lurks behind smiles. It foregrounds wit, loyalty, and a code that binds thieves and heroes alike.
