These Asian actors and actresses seem to go through a whole lot more and work through these things that probably wouldn’t be allowed in Hollywood. Hollywood celebrities are so spoiled compared to other countries and their actors and actresses.
They do that for living once youapeear in public face you have to maintain your image no matter what or else it will ruin your whole life guys we need to understand they are not only working for being paid anyone can earn money but what they do is for passion for life it's not always about money I hope Chinese actors will get justice I feel terrible for the actors
I think the netizen 'trolls' should be locked in their dungeons under bridges and leave our actors alone. I love Xianxias and appreciate the hard work the actors go through.
I've seen the bloodshot eyes on those actors frequently. I've also noticed that the indoor sets at that famous filming complex have no heating, you can see the breath escape from the actors' mouths as they speak when filming takes place during the winter months.
I love chinese costume dramas. Especially the wigs men wear in some of the dramas, the longer and fuller the better. They look Fabulous! But I had no idea they are so painful. 😭 I was quite sure that the glueing process takes time and during summer its hard to bare. I appreciate their efforts and I hope that better, hypoallergenic makeup and glues will be available in this industry.
The hair totally does it for me. Short hair, I don’t like that, but Long hair, omg I love ❤️ you. But to know that they are going through so much pain and not being healthy that’s ridiculous. They are starving themselves and losing their hair because of it. That really sucks. I’m very saddened to hear that they are forcing them like this. I don’t feel so good about it anymore.
@@kerrynicholls6683 all the handsome actors we see in costumed dramas will be bald by middle age if they live that long after lengthy exposure to hazardous materials and conditions.
That Director should have been named and shamed if not just sent to jail... at the very least stopped from directing ever again. To force an adult woman to weight the same as a 11 year old is just wrong. And how the chinese authorities permit this is beyond understanding. But hey, this is a price that apparently these actors are willing to put up with. Still I think they should be laws to stop this brutality but not surprised there are none, when their own citizens/fans demand from them impossible standards. The person who wrote that article I hope it was sued 3 times over. Ever so easy to bully someone via net when you are fat and ugly yourself, and could not reach those standards in a million years!
I knew that drama actors went through a lot for their own stunts, but never did I imagine how brutal it is, OR all the things that went into acting in one. sheesh Huge respect for costume C-Drama actors/actresses.
I love it when many people get a snap on their faces calling Dylan Wang ugly!!! Dongfang Qingcang was absolutely gorgeous and mesmerizing!!! Thank goodness Love Between Fairy and Devil was such a hit in 2022!! Wishing Dylan continues even more success, health, happiness, safety, and luck in the Year of the Dragon!!! 💜💜💜💜💜💜💜
@cmaven4762 Dylan is a very confident young man. He knows he is a great-looking guy and he will continue to work hard to become one of the most successful, accomplished, and well-known actors of all time.
Dylan is very handsome and can really act well. Its a shame that these people who called him ugly are childish, immature people who are mad bevause they cant do what he can.
@cristina8868 Stop taking credit away from Dylan Wang. He was amazing as Dongfang Qingcang with or without dubbing. He knew from the start that his character would be dubbed and you're here to judge his performance based on his dubbing vs. his actual voice when he wasn't asked to be recorded. He already started to use his voice in 3 projects and he will continue to improve, challenge, develop, and excel as one of the best actors in China with or without people like you. I didn't need your reply to my comments and your response said a lot of your intentions. I'm not going to waste another minute with you. Good luck!
This was enlightening and educational. A greater appreciation for these films has been made more possible because of the sincere dedication of these fine actors. Whenever I watch one from henceforth, I will bow my head in appreciation for the sacrifices that have been made in order to deliver. (Taps tea cup with tiny spoon)
1:07 esther yu is 169 cm tall. Getting down to 45 kg (99 lbs!!) brings her to a BMI of only 16 which is incredibly underweight, even using the Asian bmi chart :( that’s frighteningly thin to the point of putting her health at risk. I know Chinese beauty standards are quite harsh but jfc.
I didn't knew she was 169cm. That is my exact height. I have once reached 45kg in 2 weeks because of phenomonia (used to be 50kg ,i was always skinny kid) And doctors were so concerned. I could see all my rib bones. My underpants were too big for me. I looked healthy at 50 but 45 made a huge difference. Another problem is i gained 15 kg in 6 months after being released from the hospital. I heard it is because body goes into survival mode and starts turning everything into a fat and storing it. My metabolism was never the same again. I was one of those people who never gained a weight despite eating a lot. But now i gain weight just by breading. Actors and actresses that go into extreme diet probably would face similar problem. You start gaining a weight much easier.
I LOVE Chinese period dramas as well they are awesome!...And I feel honoured to be able to see these dramas thanks to these actor's great performances even at the expense of their health, and for that I salute these brave actors for trying their best in these, even when they are in pain, truly master class actors these guys and gals are, and many of us people are grateful to them and deserve all the respect they deserve.❤
Thank you for sharing this story about the actors. You would think that they could produce products that would not harm them. I love the period dramas but I feel bad for the actors. I hope they know how much their fans appreciate them. Love ❤to them all. There are no ugly actors. Thank you for a very interesting behind the scenes video
Can't believe that the Netizens would criticize Dylan Wang for not looking good in historical costume! That man would look good wearing a potato sack! Didn't they see Love Between Fairy and Devil?
It is shocking how thin Luo Yun Xi is. He looks magnificent in costume dramas, under all these layers of clothing. But to see how thin his actual frame is quite shocking. I enjoy Xianxia dramas and historical C-dramas. I do not know why but I prefer them to Western cinema or Hollywood. You can blame Covid. That is when I discovered Asian TV. I'm afraid I have to disagree with Netizens who criticized the male leads for suitability. Everybody is unique and has their own unique beauty. So I find that they are unjustly criticized while working so hard to bring the story to life.
I think its cruel. But I like to Thank all these wonderful actors who go through this to give us wonderful dramas and movies I makes me respect and love them more.They all great actors. Why can't they make the Clothes and wigs and hair pieces lighter for the actors why make them look so thin? Sure it makes them look good but what cost to their health.
The journey to love’s male lead could not have been played by anyone else but Liu Yuning, he was beautifully mesmerising, and in my opinion he’s one of the most handsome actors I’ve seen, he’s features are so characteristic and memorable. His acting was phenomenal, I’d like to see what those who speak ill of him look like themselves. Honestly a huge applause for all these actors for putting up with all of the shit.
Obviously, those speaking ill of somebody else's looks, must break mirrors just by walking in front of them. Why? because they feel they themselves have 'ugly' faces and could have appeared instead of the chosen actors. can't and won't change my mind. :P
I love these dramas and appreciate the hard work and sacrifice of the actors. Easy for untalented critics to criticize the finished product. They didn't do the work. And maybe they should get a life. If they can't appreciate the drama, they should read a book.
Hats off to them for working so hard to put smiles on our faces and yet they get rebuked. Despite their hard work and dedication,a little mistake from them can bring their career to an abrupt end,they are humans too but the aggression they gets from the so called fans is just too much. Wish y'all happiness and successful careers
I think even if the more supreme pure being, or an actual God was cast in one of these dramas, the people who complain would find something wrong with them and complain about that. The complainers just look for anything to complain about, because it makes them feel better. The actors do a brilliant job and they express their emotions clearly on their faces. So even if I can't get subtitles, I can still kind of figure out what's going on just by watching their expressions. And not the big expressions, the little side eye, the tiny smile, that teeny movement of one eyebrow, a head tilt. My favourite actor is Dylan Wang. He nails it.
Thanks for this video. These people are not considered as human beings any more but as objects that you can assess, buy, chew, taste, fantasize with and discard... Chinese fans just reveal that crazy, ugly consumers' face of us. How do actors who put up with it survive? What makes them accept it? How do directors and staff relate to that? That would be the next interesting video...
I would imagine absolutely everyone on set works their butts off. If the ML has to be up at 4 am to begin makeup, makeup staff have to be up at least that early. Also Chinese dramas pack so much in to a very limited time line, production-wise. One thing I always notice, is how fatigued the main actors are by the end of the series. It's punishing. I appreciate everyone's contribution to the entire result. It would be so much better if they took better care of everyone. Not everyone is replaceable.
Note that in the first period dramas (2009-2015, for example in Nirvana on Fire), male hair was more natural, which corresponds more to reality, and allows the actor more freedom of movement. Yes, period dramas they are my favorite. With those elaborate wigs, the actors look like ideal figures and are divine. But we would also love them for their figure and their talent without so many accessories that are a daily torture for them!
I know it's a different culture, but wow, to harp on your own people is harsh. I don't care one iota if an actor/actress is of average looks. The bigger question is, "can they bring me into the world of the movie and make me empathize with their character?" that is the sign of a truly great performer.
Probably the difference between costume dramas and more serious daily life dramas. If you see chinese drama with modern village,daily life settings,none of them are "attractive". They are just very realistic portrayal of average chinese low to mid class people,their daily life struggle, toxic asian parents e t.c. Costume dramas are "less serious" and until recently they were low budget with less experienced actors and actresses. All they had to do was to look "pretty" in pretty costumes. Now costume dramas are gaining popularity and casting big actors but peoples views are still the same. It is all about visuals
I salute Luo Yunxi for carrying all those extra weights despite being thin and still looks atunning and strong in every Cdramas he made and he actually have to carry his fl in some scenes. Its very sad and disappointing how these Chinese fans didnt appreciate their hardwork. I wish their movies/dramas will be out internationally bcoz international fans are much appreciative and understanding!
Damn. I now have a MUCH greater appreciation for costume dramas. Even the ones that are mid in terms of storyline and acting, still had a lot of hard work put into them. Also, these people need to check their eyes with bullying people for their looks. The ML on Journey to Love and FL in Ancient Love Poetry are both amazing actors and have their own unique beauty
Oh my gosh what they have to go through flipping heck. It should not be at the expense of actor's well being and health as beautiful and amazing as these costume drama's are . This is really sad what they go through. Massive respect to them all. And to me none of the supposedly ugly ones were ugly and it also shouldn't be about that either. It should be about there acting ability. Thank you for enlightening us with this and a big Thank you to the actors and actresses.
My heart goes out for all the great actresses and actors who bravely put out their all to make the very best historical dramas in the world. Most of us all really do love ,❤ and we see you for the greatest talented people you surely are.🎉❤❤❤❤❤❤❤ People
This is the reason why I love costume drama more. It is never for the faint hearted actors. A lot of discipline and skills like martial arts needs to be perfected. The weight aside from looking good in the costume is probably also due to the many liftings to mimic flying. They can't be heavy then suspended or flying in mid-air. The dizzying heights where they sometimes are dropped from is enough to make your body shiver. So yeah, I love costume drama very much.
Eu amo os dramas de fantasia. Acho incrível a capacidade chinesa de contar histórias, mas abomino as condições impostas aos atores. Concordo com alguém aqui, que disse que a maior qualidade do ator é a de nos convencer a gostar do personagem e isso não depende de beleza. Deixo aqui minha simpatia e agradecimento aos atores chineses que se esforçam para nos brindar com histórias lindas e cheias de mensagens. Que sejam bem recompensados financeiramente e que sintam-se felizes com a utilidade de seus trabalhos. Em momentos tristes eu me refugio assistindo suas histórias e isso muito me ajuda. A crítica ajuda no crescimento do profissional, principalmente se ele é do meio artístico, mas empatia e delicadeza cabem em qualquer momento, se verdadeiramente quer ajudar e não derrubar. Parabéns a vocês atores, muito sucesso, saúde e forças para continuarem na carreira. Não se intimidem com as críticas crueis, muitas vezes elas vêm da inveja. Amo o trabalho de Luo Yunxi, a ele meu respeito e admiração!❤❤❤
Wow!! These actors are AMAZING. Thank you for educating us on what they all have to go through to bring us these incredible historical dramas. Hats off to these awesome actors and actresses whose films have helped wake the world up to China's incredible history and cultural contributions. May conditions change in all ways respectful, wise, and wonderful for each and every one of you.❤
The actors deserve praise and sympathy for their endurance, performance and all the suffering whilst giving their best. The prod companies and especially directors should care for them more in turns of health. Too many were seriously injured and had hardly enough time to recuperate. As for the wigs.....shouldn.t a scientifically advanced country be able to develop some healthier products to fix wigs? Do they have netcaps underneath to protect natural hair? Where are the potions to heal the scalp?.........considering all the circumstances described it is amazing how perfect the performances are both from male and female actors. Awsome !
Thank you to the actors who go through so much pain and agony. I wish there could be a better option that is less damaging and less painful. I wish they could have regulations so they have better times while acting. We are very appreciative of their hard work. Ignore the netizens, listen to the rest of the world. You are all fantastic. 感謝那些經歷了這麼多痛苦和痛苦的演員們。我希望有一個更好的選擇,破壞性更小,痛苦也更小。我希望他們能有規定,這樣他們在表演時就能有更好的時光。我們非常感謝他們的辛勤工作。不理會網友,聽聽世界其他地方的聲音。你們都很棒。
the way actors are treated sounds like abuse! in my view, there is no reason but company's greed and disrespect for actors that they could find much safer ways to handle lighter costumes. hair, makeup, and props, and much better working conditions. the companies are willing to risk chronic injuries to talented actors. it's shameful and tragic.
to be honest, luo yunxi look good in those 20 layer cloth. he still look thin in those despite the cloth add like 10cm width to his waist. he look fairy, immortally look and vibes. but without those layer, he look scarily thin. hope he ok.
I had watched another video about the longest promise and how hard it was for the actors to film it, etc. It’s definitely very challenging for the actors to film xianxias and wuxias. Seeing the behind the scenes makes you appreciate all their hard work even more.
Ms. Zhou Dongyu is a beautiful, petite, versatile, talented, and gifted actress and artist. She is a kind and caring lady. She is friendly and real in her interactions with others. She has a radiant smile that lights up her entire face with warmth and joy. She looks absolutely stunning and gorgeous in her various costume attires. “Ancient Love Poetry” is one of our favorite dramas. My family has enjoyed watching this drama numerous times. Ms. Zhou Dongyu’s portrayal in her roles were outstanding, excellent, and superb. My family has enjoyed watching all of her movies, dramas, specials, events, and TV shows. She brightens up our day with her outstanding performances in every role that she has portrayed and will continue to portray. She truly brings her characters to life. She has this amazing gift that allows her viewers to feel, laugh, cry, and applaud. My family sincerely admires and respects you as an individual, a person, and a woman. Ms. Zhou Dongyu, you have given my family countless hours of enjoyment, entertainment, and stellar, memorable performances. We do not care about popularity, numbers, ratings, or what others say about you; my family simply wants to say, Thank you, Ms. Zhou Dongyu for your hard work, dedication, natural, realistic, exceptional acting skills, and for allowing my family to be a part of your remarkable journey. Your achievements and awards are all well deserved. Ms. Zhou Dongyu, you truly are a woman of strength, endurance, and perseverance. My family will always follow, support, and pray for “you.” 👏💫✨⭐️🌟🥇🏆🤩😊💛👏
As a lover of costume C-dramas and K- Dramas, I really appreciate it the hard work of the actors and not criticize them. My respect to them. Thank you. ❤👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻🥰
Yes I have loved them for over 50years Thank you all so much for the sacrifices you have to make to entertain us. Please stay healthy and keep safe and continue to be successful in your craft to Bless and entertain those like me who love Chinese Costume Dramas 💖💖
OHHH MY GODDDDDD…. My heart is breaking 💔 for all of them. They don’t deserve this kind of TORTURE. Why don’t you producers, directors etc. lighten up the load and you negative netz are no better. Dark 🖤 matter are you trying to kill them!!!
Thank you for sharing all of thoses hard works, details as weights of wig or swords... layers of costume, temperature on the set... all make it all more appreciate the artistic work of everyone in the process. I can say i like even more the series after knowing it.
I feel so sorry about them. Is there not another possibility to make it in another way. I love this historical dramas but makes no sense to give the actors such a hard time.
I'm totally feeling bad for liking historical dramas over contemporary ones. I will need to ween myself off them. I know this will not contribute to prevent male and female actors having to go through these tortures. This will only happen when enough netizens object to their idol being subjected to pressure to lose weight, being made to wear heavy wigs and headpieces and tight costumes while swinging themselves and heavy weapons in the air. Have these prop departments ever heard of plastic, nylon, silk? Netizens should stop criticizing actors' looks and shame production companies and directors instead.
Wow, they soldier through a lot to bring beauty to the screen. I knew it must be difficult because of the hair pieces and costumes, but I didn't realize quite how difficult everything would be, all together.
thank you for your report here. I know all this stuff since few years, because I tried to understand how all the process of making a good costume drama has to take care of. Indeed is a very very big challenge for those actors, and it is heavy regulated by almost unreasonable contracts between the production's team and the actors. They earn lot of money, but pay a huge, huge tribute for that. Sometime, or often, it is at expenses of their own health and good state of mind. More than this, there are thousand of netizens willing to destroy you whatever you do, and not because you are really mediocre at acting (which in same case it could be possible indeed), but because you do not look good enough in their ill expectations!!! So, it is gruesome... To add something to the phisical heaviness and sacrifice, there is also the impossibility (to 90% ??) to have a private life... They cannot have it, because they work 6 and hald day a week, and because they are spoiled all the time by fans and netizen and paparazzi. No time for themselves, no time to build a true relationship, no time for nothing... only get prepared for the shooting, and again and again...
Why isn’t there a censoring for unfair unjust unjustified comments from these netizens? Millions of other viewers are just happy to watch these dramas😊
I love the shows and applaud the actors and all they go through. If the Writing is good and the story is good that is what I care about. Actors can only work with what they are given Bravo to ALL!!!
And I thought they just starved the horses they use in costume dramas! I feel so bad for what the actors have to go through. Seriously, hair transplants in a young man because the wigs damaged so much hair?! I don’t blame some actors for refusing costume dramas. It’s just wrong that social media is so harsh on the actors. They should be allowed to eat and have normal healthy bodies. Anorexia is not a good look
All I can say is thank you for your sacrifices to those who work on these wonderful productions. I wish your culture was different so you didn't have to work so hard to prove yourselves. Too bad many netzians have a pack mentality and bully people they don't like.
Netizen trolls need to just shut up if they can't support our actors and give them love instead of criticisms! this makes me so angry! I for one see them all as quite beautiful and handsome and am deeply appreciative that they go through so much just to create costume dramas which are my absolute favorite dramas. I will pay any price to watch costume dramas here in USA! Thank you to the Actors and God Bless each one of you! You each have my love and thanks for all you do!
I hope this makes it through to the actors in these dramas. If your scalp is suffering because of the glue and the alcohol from the wigs, please use castor oil after removing it all. It rubs in quickly, dries so you don't see an oily residue, and will help you keep your hair. It feels very soothing and healing. I was losing my eyebrows on the outside of the arch, and they are filling in, now that I've begun using castor oil. It's good for hair, eyebrows, eyelashes, AND wrinkles and dark spots. There are other things it's also good for, but those are the things I know of. I'm sure you can pay for more expensive items, but this is simple, and it works. Love your dramas. Sorry you suffer so much.
Wow.. much respect to all of them and what they have to endure and we love them for it even more so now for all they have to do. Liked and enjoyed the Vlog.
Thank you for highlighting the incredible hard work these actors put up with ; just to accommodate the directors ! Too harsh and cruel! Who cares about a bit of extra weight?
To heal a very large wound, I had to have dressing changes everyday, sometimes twice a day. Consequently, I'm now allergic to the adhesive in bandaids. Even little ones can give me large blisters. I totally understand what the actors go through with the adhesive used in wearing wigs.
It seems taxing to act in costume dramas I feel sorry for the actors especially the women weighed down by heavy headpieces I never realized just how much sacrifice actors have to make for their craft and our entertainment. Thank you very much I appreciate your hard work as I really enjoy the genre especially xianxia and wicks which I presume is even more difficult than normal historical period dramas due to its heavy fantasy emphasis. As I enjoy these dramas more than modern dramas I hope you can continue with your hard work and again I thank you for your sacrifice. However, I do believe that those involved in the making process of these wonderful dramas can exert more effort in finding solutions to the problems faced by the actors is there no way of creating realistic but less heavy hardware, weapons etc, as for costumes can't the visual effect of clothing layering be achieved without actually having to wear the layers it's hard to believe that special effects has advanced so much yet no solution has been found to these basic problems facing actor. In my opinion it should not be a sacrifice to be borne by actors who already have a heavy workload in acting but these problems should be solved by those making and profiting the most use some finances in finding solutions and those representing actors should exert pressure on them to do so for the health and benefit of the actors.
I love the costume dramas due to their high aesthetics and their beautiful impressions of actors, clothes, buildings and nature. I assumed already that all the spfx scenes are very hard work outs but reality tops my assumptions. Hence I keep being amazed by how skinny and young looking male and female actors are when in leisure wear, I think that it is up the actors whether they want to put up with the hard core drill. However, production companies and direcitors could make their life easier since nowadays there are many new light weight materials that can me molded in all kind of forms ie. swords, shields, garments - maybe it is too expensive but they should keep looking into it.
High time these directors & producers make looking after their cast, their health, welfare and safety as their top priority. These actors and actresses should be highly commended for the sacrifices they endure for their craft and they certainly do not deserve any criticism, humiliation and ridicule from directors and netizens!! These actors and actresses have my utter respect.
New found respect for these actors 👏👏👏💪. I always imagined that the head pieces were wafer thin and not heavy but now..... and the hair gluing thing - I can relate. I wore a wig to a wedding once using hair glue to attach it, that was the last time I ever did it. 💪💪💪 kudos to those who have wear this day in day out. Tip, dont take it off until after filming. Found this out whilst watching videos on how to attach a wig. They apparently wear it attached for weeks so only have to remove it with solvents occasionally. I feel so sorry for these actors and this is made worse by criticizing viewers. Some really should just keep their opinions to themselves as not every thought ought to be shared.
I'm stunned to learn that the young lady in ancient love poetry was bullied about her looks I think she's absolutely gorgeous and her smile just lights up the screen and she's an amazing actress
This Actors and there work should be more estimated. The qaulity is so much higher then in my country and also in a lot of other countrys. I can see how hard the actors works and all of them has my utmost respekt. I hope the conditions would be better. It's important that all actors like there job, to do it with a healthy body and enthusiasm!
Maybe they should let the women weigh more than 90lbs if they want their strength to last and men too. I cant imagine swords are light if they only weigh 120 lbs
When on a live set and working with weather conditions, scene transitions, production costs and hours to complete the assigned scenes(set designs, wardrobe, makeup, stunts, and so on)is taxing on actors/actresses and all those involved in the production. I have much respect for the work that goes into creating masterpieces especially with these cultural dramas. What are the safety protocols in China for these productions? Is there a board of directors or governing body to protect (actor/actress insurance liabilities, safety checks, stunt coordination, etc)?
Damn, they need be unhealthily thin and eat less, but they still need to have enough stamina and be strong enough to carry heavy ass props, while being suffocated by layers of clothing and heavy wigs for long periods of time, and still face getting bashed by netizens. Period dramas are amazing but the actors have to suffer such inhumane conditions.
I think that what they do is incredible. It is terrible and shameful that after putting up with all the pain and torture to look that awesome, people still have the guts to criticize them. All of them are beautiful, incredible, and talented. I hope historical action/drama isn't banned. ❤
It breaks my heart to see how thin Luo Yun Xi's legs are.😱 It's outright dangerous to be so thin, and he works so hard while being so fragile!

He is a Professional ballet Dancer..
He actually is naturally thin even if he eats. It’s on his genes.
@@dr.anonyma4047 I saw some gifs on Tumblr of him dancing, and he had strong legs back then. I hope now he's healthy again, it's obviously his injuries on set that made him so bone-thin.

I believe that fans who criticize actors for being ugly or beautiful are immature teenagers who don't even pay attention to the story's script.
These netizens should realize karmas a bitch, and she’s got their names.
Honey plz don't insult us teenagers, only brainless people criticize outer appearance
Please do not discredit teenagers with such a sweeping statement. There are lots of immature adults around!!

They go through soo much just to put smiles on our faces yet get attacked for every little thing
Are they doing it for free??
These Asian actors and actresses seem to go through a whole lot more and work through these things that probably wouldn’t be allowed in Hollywood.
Hollywood celebrities are so spoiled compared to other countries and their actors and actresses.
They are working under agreement from biggy companies. They won't even get 50% of their hardwork.
they willingly go through "so much" for fame and fortune. thats the endgame
They do that for living once youapeear in public face you have to maintain your image no matter what or else it will ruin your whole life guys we need to understand they are not only working for being paid anyone can earn money but what they do is for passion for life it's not always about money I hope Chinese actors will get justice I feel terrible for the actors
I think the netizen 'trolls' should be locked in their dungeons under bridges and leave our actors alone. I love Xianxias and appreciate the hard work the actors go through.
I am a U.S. fan and I am just perplexed with the lack of control the Asian celebrities have over their private lives.
I've seen the bloodshot eyes on those actors frequently. I've also noticed that the indoor sets at that famous filming complex have no heating, you can see the breath escape from the actors' mouths as they speak when filming takes place during the winter months.
I love chinese costume dramas. Especially the wigs men wear in some of the dramas, the longer and fuller the better. They look Fabulous! But I had no idea they are so painful. 😭
I was quite sure that the glueing process takes time and during summer its hard to bare.
I appreciate their efforts and I hope that better, hypoallergenic makeup and glues will be available in this industry.
The hair totally does it for me. Short hair, I don’t like that, but Long hair, omg I love ❤️ you. But to know that they are going through so much pain and not being healthy that’s ridiculous. They are starving themselves and losing their hair because of it. That really sucks. I’m very saddened to hear that they are forcing them like this. I don’t feel so good about it anymore.
The wigs are an unfortunate requirement, since men and women grew their hair out in ancient China and it was actually seen as disrespectful to cut it.
@@kerrynicholls6683 all the handsome actors we see in costumed dramas will be bald by middle age if they live that long after lengthy exposure to hazardous materials and conditions.
That Director should have been named and shamed if not just sent to jail... at the very least stopped from directing ever again. To force an adult woman to weight the same as a 11 year old is just wrong. And how the chinese authorities permit this is beyond understanding.

Thank goodness Love Between Fairy and Devil was such a hit in 2022!! Wishing Dylan continues even more success, health, happiness, safety, and luck in the Year of the Dragon!!! 💜💜💜💜💜💜💜
I am so glad Didi didn't listen to the mean comments about Miss the Dragon.... ❤
@cmaven4762 Dylan is a very confident young man. He knows he is a great-looking guy and he will continue to work hard to become one of the most successful, accomplished, and well-known actors of all time.
ANYONE who says Dylan Wang is ugly is seriously blind!!! That man is not simply fine, he is sinfully gorgeous!
Dylan is very handsome and can really act well. Its a shame that these people who called him ugly are childish, immature people who are mad bevause they cant do what he can.
@cristina8868 Stop taking credit away from Dylan Wang. He was amazing as Dongfang Qingcang with or without dubbing. He knew from the start that his character would be dubbed and you're here to judge his performance based on his dubbing vs. his actual voice when he wasn't asked to be recorded. He already started to use his voice in 3 projects and he will continue to improve, challenge, develop, and excel as one of the best actors in China with or without people like you. I didn't need your reply to my comments and your response said a lot of your intentions. I'm not going to waste another minute with you. Good luck!
Luo yunxi is a dancer! 😢 omg he has to sacrifice his legs??? This just too brutal😢😢
This is insane. The actresses already have chopstick legs and toothpick arms
Oo
True man..Chinese actor and actress have it hard man
SO SORRY FOR WHAT ACTORS MUST PUT UP WITH! SINCERE THANKS TO ALL OF THEM!
I have the highest respect for these actors, they literally give us their blood sweat and tears for our enjoyment. ❤❤❤❤❤❤❤
I do too, they all do a marvelous job and should be praised for their hard work and perseverance
This was enlightening and educational. A greater appreciation for these films has been made more possible because of the sincere dedication of these fine actors. Whenever I watch one from henceforth, I will bow my head in appreciation for the sacrifices that have been made in order to deliver. (Taps tea cup with tiny spoon)
1:07 esther yu is 169 cm tall. Getting down to 45 kg (99 lbs!!) brings her to a BMI of only 16 which is incredibly underweight, even using the Asian bmi chart :( that’s frighteningly thin to the point of putting her health at risk. I know Chinese beauty standards are quite harsh but jfc.
ideal Chinese weight is 42 to 45 kgs
@@cristina8868 according to Chinese people since generations
I didn't knew she was 169cm. That is my exact height. I have once reached 45kg in 2 weeks because of phenomonia (used to be 50kg ,i was always skinny kid)
And doctors were so concerned. I could see all my rib bones. My underpants were too big for me. I looked healthy at 50 but 45 made a huge difference. Another problem is i gained 15 kg in 6 months after being released from the hospital. I heard it is because body goes into survival mode and starts turning everything into a fat and storing it. My metabolism was never the same again. I was one of those people who never gained a weight despite eating a lot. But now i gain weight just by breading. Actors and actresses that go into extreme diet probably would face similar problem. You start gaining a weight much easier.
I LOVE Chinese period dramas as well they are awesome!...And I feel honoured to be able to see these dramas thanks to these actor's great performances even at the expense of their health, and for that I salute these brave actors for trying their best in these, even when they are in pain, truly master class actors these guys and gals are, and many of us people are grateful to them and deserve all the respect they deserve.❤
I agree with all you say. thank you xx
Thank you for sharing this story about the actors. You would think that they could produce products that would not harm them.
I love the period dramas but I feel bad for the actors. I hope they know how much their fans appreciate them. Love ❤to them all.
There are no ugly actors. Thank you for a very interesting behind the scenes video
Can't believe that the Netizens would criticize Dylan Wang for not looking good in historical costume! That man would look good wearing a potato sack! Didn't they see Love Between Fairy and Devil?
The criticism was before that, about his look in an earlier xianxia.
That CHARACTER was pretty sexy, which helped, but Dylan looked quite nice in that one. :)
It is shocking how thin Luo Yun Xi is. He looks magnificent in costume dramas, under all these layers of clothing. But to see how thin his actual frame is quite shocking. I enjoy Xianxia dramas and historical C-dramas. I do not know why but I prefer them to Western cinema or Hollywood. You can blame Covid. That is when I discovered Asian TV. I'm afraid I have to disagree with Netizens who criticized the male leads for suitability. Everybody is unique and has their own unique beauty. So I find that they are unjustly criticized while working so hard to bring the story to life.
It's sad because they get criticized by their own people
Sad… different standards of beauty!
I think its cruel. But I like to Thank all these wonderful actors who go through this to give us wonderful dramas and movies I makes me respect and love them more.They all great actors. Why can't they make the Clothes and wigs and hair pieces lighter for the actors why make them look so thin? Sure it makes them look good but what cost to their health.
The journey to love’s male lead could not have been played by anyone else but Liu Yuning, he was beautifully mesmerising, and in my opinion he’s one of the most handsome actors I’ve seen, he’s features are so characteristic and memorable. His acting was phenomenal, I’d like to see what those who speak ill of him look like themselves. Honestly a huge applause for all these actors for putting up with all of the shit.
Obviously, those speaking ill of somebody else's looks, must break mirrors just by walking in front of them. Why? because they feel they themselves have 'ugly' faces and could have appeared instead of the chosen actors.
can't and won't change my mind. :P
@@sapphirecamui6447 you’re very right and the way you put it is savage, I snorted up my drink laughing, it hurts.
He’s one of those manly handsome actors; and his facial expressions so so expressive 👏👏👏👏
I love these dramas and appreciate the hard work and sacrifice of the actors. Easy for untalented critics to criticize the finished product. They didn't do the work. And maybe they should get a life. If they can't appreciate the drama, they should read a book.
I agree with you
Hats off to them for working so hard to put smiles on our faces and yet they get rebuked. Despite their hard work and dedication,a little mistake from them can bring their career to an abrupt end,they are humans too but the aggression they gets from the so called fans is just too much. Wish y'all happiness and successful careers
I think even if the more supreme pure being, or an actual God was cast in one of these dramas, the people who complain would find something wrong with them and complain about that. The complainers just look for anything to complain about, because it makes them feel better.
The actors do a brilliant job and they express their emotions clearly on their faces. So even if I can't get subtitles, I can still kind of figure out what's going on just by watching their expressions. And not the big expressions, the little side eye, the tiny smile, that teeny movement of one eyebrow, a head tilt. My favourite actor is Dylan Wang. He nails it.
Thanks for this video.
These people are not considered as human beings any more but as objects that you can assess, buy, chew, taste, fantasize with and discard...
Chinese fans just reveal that crazy, ugly consumers' face of us.
How do actors who put up with it survive? What makes them accept it?
How do directors and staff relate to that? That would be the next interesting video...
@@cristina8868 who is "they"?
I would imagine absolutely everyone on set works their butts off. If the ML has to be up at 4 am to begin makeup, makeup staff have to be up at least that early. Also Chinese dramas pack so much in to a very limited time line, production-wise. One thing I always notice, is how fatigued the main actors are by the end of the series. It's punishing. I appreciate everyone's contribution to the entire result. It would be so much better if they took better care of everyone. Not everyone is replaceable.
This was so interesting and made me appreciate the hardships that the actors have to suffer to produce these wonderful movies.
Note that in the first period dramas (2009-2015, for example in Nirvana on Fire), male hair was more natural, which corresponds more to reality, and allows the actor more freedom of movement. Yes, period dramas they are my favorite. With those elaborate wigs, the actors look like ideal figures and are divine. But we would also love them for their figure and their talent without so many accessories that are a daily torture for them!
Thank you so much performers for enduring so much to give your audience wonderful memories❤❤❤
I know it's a different culture, but wow, to harp on your own people is harsh. I don't care one iota if an actor/actress is of average looks. The bigger question is, "can they bring me into the world of the movie and make me empathize with their character?" that is the sign of a truly great performer.
And jun ling is great❤❤❤❤
This is not a cultural thing. Celebrities from every culture have haters in their own. Also hi, name buddy.
Probably the difference between costume dramas and more serious daily life dramas. If you see chinese drama with modern village,daily life settings,none of them are "attractive". They are just very realistic portrayal of average chinese low to mid class people,their daily life struggle, toxic asian parents e t.c. Costume dramas are "less serious" and until recently they were low budget with less experienced actors and actresses. All they had to do was to look "pretty" in pretty costumes. Now costume dramas are gaining popularity and casting big actors but peoples views are still the same. It is all about visuals
I salute Luo Yunxi for carrying all those extra weights despite being thin and still looks atunning and strong in every Cdramas he made and he actually have to carry his fl in some scenes. Its very sad and disappointing how these Chinese fans didnt appreciate their hardwork. I wish their movies/dramas will be out internationally bcoz international fans are much appreciative and understanding!
My heart goes for you actors and actresses, your hard work, patients and acting skills to looks yours best in the films are brave. You are Heroes ❤
One of the gifts of Chinese Drama is how it is constantly reminding us just how narrow our sense of beauty used to be.
Damn. I now have a MUCH greater appreciation for costume dramas. Even the ones that are mid in terms of storyline and acting, still had a lot of hard work put into them. Also, these people need to check their eyes with bullying people for their looks. The ML on Journey to Love and FL in Ancient Love Poetry are both amazing actors and have their own unique beauty
Oh my gosh what they have to go through flipping heck. It should not be at the expense of actor's well being and health as beautiful and amazing as these costume drama's are . This is really sad what they go through. Massive respect to them all. And to me none of the supposedly ugly ones were ugly and it also shouldn't be about that either. It should be about there acting ability. Thank you for enlightening us with this and a big Thank you to the actors and actresses.
My heart goes out for all the great actresses and actors who bravely put out their all to make the very best historical dramas in the world. Most of us all really do love ,❤ and we see you for the greatest talented people you surely are.🎉❤❤❤❤❤❤❤
People
they do not deserve the petty criticism for anything they do to make a drama. Their dedication and perseverance is admirable'
Health is not a petty matter.
This is the reason why I love costume drama more. It is never for the faint hearted actors. A lot of discipline and skills like martial arts needs to be perfected. The weight aside from looking good in the costume is probably also due to the many liftings to mimic flying. They can't be heavy then suspended or flying in mid-air. The dizzying heights where they sometimes are dropped from is enough to make your body shiver. So yeah, I love costume drama very much.
Till The End Of The Moon
I live how u used gong shanque first thing in the video. Thats why i clicked. Love to see him getting recognised for his amazing acting skills
Eu amo os dramas de fantasia. Acho incrível a capacidade chinesa de contar histórias, mas abomino as condições impostas aos atores. Concordo com alguém aqui, que disse que a maior qualidade do ator é a de nos convencer a gostar do personagem e isso não depende de beleza. Deixo aqui minha simpatia e agradecimento aos atores chineses que se esforçam para nos brindar com histórias lindas e cheias de mensagens. Que sejam bem recompensados financeiramente e que sintam-se felizes com a utilidade de seus trabalhos. Em momentos tristes eu me refugio assistindo suas histórias e isso muito me ajuda. A crítica ajuda no crescimento do profissional, principalmente se ele é do meio artístico, mas empatia e delicadeza cabem em qualquer momento, se verdadeiramente quer ajudar e não derrubar. Parabéns a vocês atores, muito sucesso, saúde e forças para continuarem na carreira. Não se intimidem com as críticas crueis, muitas vezes elas vêm da inveja. Amo o trabalho de Luo Yunxi, a ele meu respeito e admiração!❤❤❤
Wow!! These actors are AMAZING.
Thank you for educating us on what they all have to go through to bring us these incredible historical dramas.
Hats off to these awesome actors and actresses whose films have helped wake the world up to China's incredible history and cultural contributions.
May conditions change in all ways respectful, wise, and wonderful for each and every one of you.❤
The actors deserve praise and sympathy for their endurance, performance and all the suffering whilst giving their best. The prod companies and especially directors should care for them more in turns of health. Too many were seriously injured and had hardly enough time to recuperate.
As for the wigs.....shouldn.t a scientifically advanced country be able to develop some healthier products to fix wigs? Do they have netcaps underneath to protect natural hair? Where are the potions to heal the scalp?.........considering all the circumstances described it is amazing how perfect the performances are both from male and female actors. Awsome !
Dylan Wang is fantastic I love all of his series are they crazy or what
Thank you to the actors who go through so much pain and agony. I wish there could be a better option that is less damaging and less painful. I wish they could have regulations so they have better times while acting. We are very appreciative of their hard work. Ignore the netizens, listen to the rest of the world. You are all fantastic.
感謝那些經歷了這麼多痛苦和痛苦的演員們。我希望有一個更好的選擇,破壞性更小,痛苦也更小。我希望他們能有規定,這樣他們在表演時就能有更好的時光。我們非常感謝他們的辛勤工作。不理會網友,聽聽世界其他地方的聲音。你們都很棒。
the way actors are treated sounds like abuse! in my view, there is no reason but company's greed and disrespect for actors that they could find much safer ways to handle lighter costumes. hair, makeup, and props, and much better working conditions. the companies are willing to risk chronic injuries to talented actors. it's shameful and tragic.
Luo yunxi is the most handsome actor of all!! Lots of love .. best drama was till the end of the moon
to be honest, luo yunxi look good in those 20 layer cloth. he still look thin in those despite the cloth add like 10cm width to his waist. he look fairy, immortally look and vibes. but without those layer, he look scarily thin. hope he ok.
oh my goodness! I didn't realize they had to go through so much! It just makes me respect and admire them even more for all they have to go through!
I had watched another video about the longest promise and how hard it was for the actors to film it, etc. It’s definitely very challenging for the actors to film xianxias and wuxias. Seeing the behind the scenes makes you appreciate all their hard work even more.
Ms. Zhou Dongyu is a beautiful, petite, versatile, talented, and gifted actress and artist. She is a kind and caring lady. She is friendly and real in her interactions with others. She has a radiant smile that lights up her entire face with warmth and joy. She looks absolutely stunning and gorgeous in her various costume attires. “Ancient Love Poetry” is one of our favorite dramas. My family has enjoyed watching this drama numerous times. Ms. Zhou Dongyu’s portrayal in her roles were outstanding, excellent, and superb. My family has enjoyed watching all of her movies, dramas, specials, events, and TV shows. She brightens up our day with her outstanding performances in every role that she has portrayed and will continue to portray. She truly brings her characters to life. She has this amazing gift that allows her viewers to feel, laugh, cry, and applaud. My family sincerely admires and respects you as an individual, a person, and a woman. Ms. Zhou Dongyu, you have given my family countless hours of enjoyment, entertainment, and stellar, memorable performances. We do not care about popularity, numbers, ratings, or what others say about you; my family simply wants to say, Thank you, Ms. Zhou Dongyu for your hard work, dedication, natural, realistic, exceptional acting skills, and for allowing my family to be a part of your remarkable journey. Your achievements and awards are all well deserved. Ms. Zhou Dongyu, you truly are a woman of strength, endurance, and perseverance. My family will always follow, support, and pray for “you.” 👏💫✨⭐️🌟🥇🏆🤩😊💛👏
As a lover of costume C-dramas and K- Dramas, I really appreciate it the hard work of the actors and not criticize them. My respect to them. Thank you. ❤👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻🥰
To come back to filming with a broken leg, you really have to be dedicated !
Luo Yunxi is the best out there!
@@alorindanya Right
Wow! Yet their movies come out perfect and very professional😢? They actually deserve the best. God bless them❤❤❤❤❤
Yes I have loved them for over 50years Thank you all so much for the sacrifices you have to make to entertain us. Please stay healthy and keep safe and continue to be successful in your craft to Bless and entertain those like me who love Chinese Costume Dramas 💖💖
The pronunciation of Xiao Zhan's name had me rolling on the floor.
This is why i love watching this kind of drama thinking all the hard labour of everyone involved. It is worth the watching
OHHH MY GODDDDDD…. My heart is breaking 💔 for all of them. They don’t deserve this kind of TORTURE. Why don’t you producers, directors etc. lighten up the load and you negative netz are no better. Dark 🖤 matter are you trying to kill them!!!
Im sorry 4 them that they have 2 go back filming while they still not fully recover... (r d producers not concerned about d health of their actors?)
Actors have died on set.
Just saying...
Thank you for sharing all of thoses hard works, details as weights of wig or swords... layers of costume, temperature on the set... all make it all more appreciate the artistic work of everyone in the process. I can say i like even more the series after knowing it.
I actually enjoy actors with unique beauty and handsomeness. 🥰
I feel so sorry about them. Is there not another possibility to make it in another way. I love this historical dramas but makes no sense to give the actors such a hard time.
I'm totally feeling bad for liking historical dramas over contemporary ones. I will need to ween myself off them. I know this will not contribute to prevent male and female actors having to go through these tortures. This will only happen when enough netizens object to their idol being subjected to pressure to lose weight, being made to wear heavy wigs and headpieces and tight costumes while swinging themselves and heavy weapons in the air. Have these prop departments ever heard of plastic, nylon, silk? Netizens should stop criticizing actors' looks and shame production companies and directors instead.
Wow, they soldier through a lot to bring beauty to the screen. I knew it must be difficult because of the hair pieces and costumes, but I didn't realize quite how difficult everything would be, all together.
thank you for your report here. I know all this stuff since few years, because I tried to understand how all the process of making a good costume drama has to take care of. Indeed is a very very big challenge for those actors, and it is heavy regulated by almost unreasonable contracts between the production's team and the actors. They earn lot of money, but pay a huge, huge tribute for that. Sometime, or often, it is at expenses of their own health and good state of mind. More than this, there are thousand of netizens willing to destroy you whatever you do, and not because you are really mediocre at acting (which in same case it could be possible indeed), but because you do not look good enough in their ill expectations!!! So, it is gruesome... To add something to the phisical heaviness and sacrifice, there is also the impossibility (to 90% ??) to have a private life... They cannot have it, because they work 6 and hald day a week, and because they are spoiled all the time by fans and netizen and paparazzi. No time for themselves, no time to build a true relationship, no time for nothing... only get prepared for the shooting, and again and again...
It blows my mind how endless sacrifices they all make!!!!
Why isn’t there a censoring for unfair unjust unjustified comments from these netizens? Millions of other viewers are just happy to watch these dramas😊
They need to loosen up with the health threatening requirements and layers of clothes. Some of the stars look to frail, thin and unhealthy.
The actors and actress's all do a wonderful job and I thank them all for all they do.
I love the shows and applaud the actors and all they go through. If the Writing is good and the story is good that is what I care about. Actors can only work with what they are given Bravo to ALL!!!
And I thought they just starved the horses they use in costume dramas!
I feel so bad for what the actors have to go through. Seriously, hair transplants in a young man because the wigs damaged so much hair?!
I don’t blame some actors for refusing costume dramas.
It’s just wrong that social media is so harsh on the actors. They should be allowed to eat and have normal healthy bodies. Anorexia is not a good look
Thank you for the information. I really respect these actors for doing what they do. I enjoy watching them.
All I can say is thank you for your sacrifices to those who work on these wonderful productions. I wish your culture was different so you didn't have to work so hard to prove yourselves. Too bad many netzians have a pack mentality and bully people they don't like.
Netizen trolls need to just shut up if they can't support our actors and give them love instead of criticisms! this makes me so angry! I for one see them all as quite beautiful and handsome and am deeply appreciative that they go through so much just to create costume dramas which are my absolute favorite dramas. I will pay any price to watch costume dramas here in USA! Thank you to the Actors and God Bless each one of you! You each have my love and thanks for all you do!
I love chinese costumed drama more than contemporary ones.
wow! that's insane! these actors really deserve all the acclaim that comes to them. such a hard job!
I feel so bad for what they have to put up with.
I would love to see when all the actresses would refuse to do period drama where will those directors land? 😢
I hope this makes it through to the actors in these dramas. If your scalp is suffering because of the glue and the alcohol from the wigs, please use castor oil after removing it all. It rubs in quickly, dries so you don't see an oily residue, and will help you keep your hair. It feels very soothing and healing. I was losing my eyebrows on the outside of the arch, and they are filling in, now that I've begun using castor oil. It's good for hair, eyebrows, eyelashes, AND wrinkles and dark spots. There are other things it's also good for, but those are the things I know of. I'm sure you can pay for more expensive items, but this is simple, and it works. Love your dramas. Sorry you suffer so much.
Wow.. much respect to all of them and what they have to endure and we love them for it even more so now for all they have to do.
Liked and enjoyed the Vlog.
Thank you for highlighting the incredible hard work these actors put up with ; just to accommodate the directors ! Too harsh and cruel! Who cares about a bit of extra weight?
To heal a very large wound, I had to have dressing changes everyday, sometimes twice a day. Consequently, I'm now allergic to the adhesive in bandaids. Even little ones can give me large blisters. I totally understand what the actors go through with the adhesive used in wearing wigs.
It seems taxing to act in costume dramas I feel sorry for the actors especially the women weighed down by heavy headpieces I never realized just how much sacrifice actors have to make for their craft and our entertainment. Thank you very much I appreciate your hard work as I really enjoy the genre especially xianxia and wicks which I presume is even more difficult than normal historical period dramas due to its heavy fantasy emphasis. As I enjoy these dramas more than modern dramas I hope you can continue with your hard work and again I thank you for your sacrifice. However, I do believe that those involved in the making process of these wonderful dramas can exert more effort in finding solutions to the problems faced by the actors is there no way of creating realistic but less heavy hardware, weapons etc, as for costumes can't the visual effect of clothing layering be achieved without actually having to wear the layers it's hard to believe that special effects has advanced so much yet no solution has been found to these basic problems facing actor. In my opinion it should not be a sacrifice to be borne by actors who already have a heavy workload in acting but these problems should be solved by those making and profiting the most use some finances in finding solutions and those representing actors should exert pressure on them to do so for the health and benefit of the actors.
And after enduring all this, you hear and see some ignorant fans criticizing them😢😢
So sorry to hear all of these
What they had to go through to look and performed good ❤❤❤
I can never do that
I love the costume dramas due to their high aesthetics and their beautiful impressions of actors, clothes, buildings and nature. I assumed already that all the spfx scenes are very hard work outs but reality tops my assumptions. Hence I keep being amazed by how skinny and young looking male and female actors are when in leisure wear, I think that it is up the actors whether they want to put up with the hard core drill. However, production companies and direcitors could make their life easier since nowadays there are many new light weight materials that can me molded in all kind of forms ie. swords, shields, garments - maybe it is too expensive but they should keep looking into it.
I admire them more. ❤❤❤And thanks them more for all the effort and there lovely acting. ❤❤❤
High time these directors & producers make looking after their cast, their health, welfare and safety as their top priority. These actors and actresses should be highly commended for the sacrifices they endure for their craft and they certainly do not deserve any criticism, humiliation and ridicule from directors and netizens!! These actors and actresses have my utter respect.
New found respect for these actors 👏👏👏💪. I always imagined that the head pieces were wafer thin and not heavy but now..... and the hair gluing thing - I can relate. I wore a wig to a wedding once using hair glue to attach it, that was the last time I ever did it. 💪💪💪 kudos to those who have wear this day in day out. Tip, dont take it off until after filming. Found this out whilst watching videos on how to attach a wig. They apparently wear it attached for weeks so only have to remove it with solvents occasionally. I feel so sorry for these actors and this is made worse by criticizing viewers. Some really should just keep their opinions to themselves as not every thought ought to be shared.
Its time they make some adjustments to the clothing,wigs,props.modern technology can surely help with light weight and better alternatives
I'm stunned to learn that the young lady in ancient love poetry was bullied about her looks I think she's absolutely gorgeous and her smile just lights up the screen and she's an amazing actress
This Actors and there work should be more estimated.
The qaulity is so much higher then in my country and also in a lot of other countrys.
I can see how hard the actors works and all of them has my utmost respekt.
I hope the conditions would be better.
It's important that all actors like there job, to do it with a healthy body and enthusiasm!
Maybe they should let the women weigh more than 90lbs if they want their strength to last and men too. I cant imagine swords are light if they only weigh 120 lbs
When on a live set and working with weather conditions, scene transitions, production costs and hours to complete the assigned scenes(set designs, wardrobe, makeup, stunts, and so on)is taxing on actors/actresses and all those involved in the production. I have much respect for the work that goes into creating masterpieces especially with these cultural dramas. What are the safety protocols in China for these productions? Is there a board of directors or governing body to protect (actor/actress insurance liabilities, safety checks, stunt coordination, etc)?
Bai lu is too hardworking. Please take care of yourself😢❤
Damn, they need be unhealthily thin and eat less, but they still need to have enough stamina and be strong enough to carry heavy ass props, while being suffocated by layers of clothing and heavy wigs for long periods of time, and still face getting bashed by netizens. Period dramas are amazing but the actors have to suffer such inhumane conditions.
what is the name of the drama 7:20?
Lost You Forever, where you able to find it?🥺💕
I think that what they do is incredible. It is terrible and shameful that after putting up with all the pain and torture to look that awesome, people still have the guts to criticize them. All of them are beautiful, incredible, and talented. I hope historical action/drama isn't banned. ❤
Thank you for doing this video. I didn't realize what all these actors & actresses go through. Is there no other way??
