Zhuo Yihang was born and raised in a noble family where all his elders served as high-ranking officials in the government. Zhuo Yihang himself was also the first apprentice of Wudang School and later became its leader. As Zhuo Yihang belongs to an elite class since his birth, his fashion design got to highlight his noble and gentleman character. Therefore, we can see a noble and stately gentleman in terms of the design of his clothing.
Zhuo Yihang and Lian Nishang met and fell in love with each other but broke up eventually due to misunderstandings despite having experienced all the dangers of jianghu (martial artists’ community) together. Their poignant and melancholic love story is lodged in people’s mind.
In The Bride with White Hair (1995) produced by TVB, Timmy Ho Bo-sang played Zhuo Yihang who was perfectly rendered with his handsome appearance and gentle and noble qualities.
Bonus: The Bride with White Hair written by Liang Yusheng has been adapted into no less than ten versions of films and television dramas. In addition to Timmy Ho, male artists who have played Zhuo Yihang also include Leslie Cheung Kwok-wing, Julian Cheung Chi-lam, Huang Xiaoming, and Nicky Wu Qilong. The first film adapted from The Bride with White Hair was released in 1959, directed by Lee Fa. At that time, veteran actor and male star Cheung Ying played Zhuo Yihang.
