there are haters on weibo saying they dont like bailu's crying face in this drama's reuters or in her previous…
I hate to throw that word around but that post is coming from a well-known hater of her. Their acc is literally an echo chamber for people who hate her to gather together and hate her to the fullest. They like to pit her against other actresses, take specific bad screenshots or gifs out of context of her to make it look like she’s bad/acts the same in every show because she has the same face . Which is kinda dumb bcus they can do the same to literally any renowned actors in the West, like Mia Goth, Margot Robbie, or Jennifer Lawrence, it would still be the same cus they would have multiple shots where they look the same during crying or other scenes– because, duh, it’s the same person. We do not watch drama in screenshots or gifs without context or sound. Anyone who watches her work with even a tiny bit of critical thinking can see if her crying face is the same or not. Just look at Kunning – the opening cry before she kills herself, the cry in the cave when Xiewei forcefully kisses her, the cry in the carriage ride home when she feels hopeless because she couldn’t help her friend from the political marriage, and the cry when she has to leave Yanlin in prison – those are not the same at all. The hate is loud because her archievements are loud, It’s really rare for an actress to release 3 dramas in a year and all three of them are succesful even the one with bad plot (there’s 305 cdramas released last year alone), As long as people are willing to pay to watch her dramas there’s not much they can do but hating on internet trying to brainwash people that she’s a bad actress. I used to feel sad about it but seeing how many actors/actresses are being banned left and right in china now I’m just happy as long as she still has dramas to star in. I’m not saying she’s perfect, there’re definitely many aspects that she can improve on but bad? Far from it.
