Continuous flying kicks, thankfully I trained in taekwondo when I was younger😂
(The most important rule when it comes to fight scenes - While performing naturally, you need to protect the other actor. Where to land a kick, where they're wearing protective gear, you have to be precise, otherwise you might injure them)
Before we started filming, we told Hu Ge to put on his protective padding, thanks for your hard work Hu Ge🙏
And thank you to all the crew members as well🙏
Xiao Yuan... stop running off... it's tiring to chase after you😂
Last year, I went through a dark period
no one could tell
because I hid it very well
when I saw my friends I was still able to chat with them, joke around, and have a good time
During that period, I would often go to the gym alone, and push myself till I was exhausted, so that I'd get a dopamine boost which would make me feel better! And help me sleep better
Since I didn't have anything else to do, I thought that I might as well get in shape and be prepared, and perhaps when the time comes a suitable role might come my way! This went on for two three months
One afternoon, 君君 messaged me and said there's this bl drama, would you be interested? They'd like to chat with you
There are going to be some shirtless scenes and fight scenes,
it's the character "Wei Qian" in the drama adaptation of the novel "Da Ge"
This was my first time hearing this name, I had not yet read the novel
and I had no idea what this character's personality was like, or what type of story it would be
I just felt this jolt in my heart, a wonderful feeling that I couldn't explain
I said: Okay! I can do this! I think I'm ready!
Then, I finished the novel "Da Ge" in three days
And that was when I finally understood, why I felt that in my heart upon hearing this name
It's because Wei Qian's life is full of darkness and melancholy… and in some ways, I'm living some aspects of his life. Feeling uncertain and lost about the future!
Reading the novel, I felt like I was being comforted and saved
It was like looking into a mirror… seeing all these images in my head…
Wei Qian, it's you who has come to me, isn't that right?
Actors have this saying, which I wholeheartedly believe,
"Characters/roles have souls, and it's the role that comes to you, not the other way around. They have something to say through you! If it's meant to be then there's no escaping it." And I believe that Wei Qian has come (to me)!
Perhaps you could sense this dark period? Through cosmic resonance, you found your way to me! Is there something that you want to say through me?
To all the people who are feeling lost and stuck in the darkness, please believe that someone's going to be by your side that's just like the sun
Wei Qian, thank you for coming to me! For letting me become you!
And I'd like to thank myself, for being able to take on most of the dark and melancholic parts of your life, during that period of darkness
We've made it through that period of darkness together…
Regardless of how this show does, you are the most important present that I received last year!
One that I'll remember for the rest of my life!!
