The tension between inferences of Hubble constant ($H_0$) is found in a large array of datasets combinations. Modification to the late expansion history is the most direct solution to this discrepancy. In this work we examine the viability of restoring the cosmological concordance within the scenarios of late dark energy. We explore two representative parameterizations: a novel version of transitional dark energy (TDE) and modified emergent dark energy (MEDE). We find that, the main anchors for the cosmic distance scale: cosmic microwave background (CMB), baryon acoustic oscillation (BAO), and SNe Ia calibrated by Cepheids form a “impossible trinity”, i.e., it’s plausible to reconcile with any of the two but unlikely to accommodate them all. Particularly, the tension between BAO and the calibrated SNe Ia can not be reconciled within the scenarios of late dark energy. Nevertheless, we still find a positive evidence for TDE model in analysis of all datasets combinations, while with the the exclusion of BOSS datasets, the tensions with SH0ES drops from $3.1\sigma$ to $1.1\sigma$. For MEDE model, the tension with $H_0$ is much alleviated with the exclusion of SNe dataset. But unfortunately, in both TDE and MEDE scenarios, the $S_8$ tension is not relieved nor exacerbated.
