Idk why you compare his trajectory to others. Some actors dont care too much about popularity or if they used to when they started ,now they want to be taken more seriously for their acting......especially as they are getting older. It is my impression that XK is getting more serious roles because he wants to be more taken seriously as an actor or win more prestigious acting awards. I for one I am glad that he is taking this route. This is going to be a little off topic, but I will use Seven. as an example. She is not a traffic actress and that is by choice ; she chooses her OWN scripts and she prefers to be taken more seriously as an actress and it has paid off for her. Passerbys always follow her dramas. Her dramas always do very well with TV ratings even more so than many Traffic actors. At the same time, I also like traffic actresses like Bai Lu, Dilraba , Esther and a few others. Or some other traffic actors. I dont envy them or their popularity for my faves because I know that every one chooses their own path .
Whether you're a traffic actor or not, each actor have their success and trajectory they prefer. Some care more about being known for their acting, others care more about being more popular. Others wants both . And there's nothing wrong with each 3 categories. To each their own 😎😎😎.
XK is STILL very popular. I saw that last month his other drama FIYS and ABAY are still topping some ranking charts internationally.
From what I have seen of him over the years, he really does care about his craft. Who cares about popularity? I hope that some of his fans stop having this mentality. Listen to your fave. Or I always see comments like I want him to collaborate with X or Y popular actor and it is just because they want more popularity for him for the most part; and more often than not it is about Idol dramas lol.
I dont want to mention him but there is this traffic actor, younger than him who has started doing more serious roles and it has paid off for him; he has been nominated for 2 of the 3 prestigious Chinese awards and might actually win it.
I want XK to win a Golden Rooster , Magnolia or Golden Eagle award one day (he is genuinely talented and I want him to get more diverse scripts that can showcase that)....or even GET nominated (that is already an honor and lowkey a win. This to me is more important than him being more popular compared to others.
The projects that he has lined up (except Moonlit reunion) although they are not what most Cdramas fans prefer to watch (what is popular ), these are the type of projects that wins you acting awards and nominations.
I was not a fan of their pairing in Go Ahead but I appreciate the fact that Zhang Xin Cheng doesn't have any qualms with being friendly with 7 publicly even though he's in a long-term relationship with Li Lan di 🙂🙂.
Seven was sitting next to him during the award show and they kept chatting away 🤣🤣.
Some of these actors who are in public relationships act like they can't even say hi or being friendly to their costars publicly 😅😅. I get where some of them come from but it lowkey sucks.
Oh wow she's finally back? Why did she take so much hiatus from dramas? I feel like I havent seen her in anything since 2/3 years ago ( except reality shows).
Now I want to see her in another Republican drama.....one with Great fashion and where she is going to wear all the fashionable outfits from that era. I didnt like "The Eight" that much 🙈🙈🙈.
This !!! I dont mind people not liking the drama but at least try to comment in a civil manner.
I (and a few others) was called a " bot" a few weeks ago LOL.
Plus there are some dramas I dont like, or dropped but you will never see me go to their drama pages go and on about how much I dislike it or being mad at others who like it. Like who has the time ???
Congrats seven tan. Hope to see more awards for this drama for xk and seven and other casts ^^
There is still Tencent Night or award (next month I believe ) , cant remember exactly what it is called so I feel like Xu Kai might attend that one especially since he had 3 Tencent dramas this year so I hope that he does attend.
There are many awards shows left so I am hoping to see the whole cast gets rewarded more :).
Its not like that. The camera also focused on Wanyu + churan too for a long time. Even wanyu-zhou ye.Wanyu enter…
His face looked familiar and I looked at his page and saw that he was the ML in the Rise of Ning and Lost you forever 2. I wouldn't mind a cooperation between them 👍👍.
Yeah Neo has an ongoing drama. Fangs of Fortune. As per their Weibo interactions, they seem friendly enough, even in the BTS Reuters so I think that it was just a matter of respecting the fact that he has a current drama now and not wanting to give materials yet for their CP 🙂.
I am so happy that we got to see her attend this and get awarded for ABAY but this might be our last carpet experience until after they are done filming :/.
I read that this director and his team are so strict with their leads and dont like them to attend many awards shows or brand activities when they are filming ( one of the reasons why he doesn't like too many traffic stars) . I hope that it is just a rumour😅😅 .
There is still Tencent Night/award coming up by the end of the year and I want her to attend that one 🤞🤞🤞. ABAY is 1 of their modern dramas that did very well this year.

Ive seen quite a few comments like this already on X. Some people are already hoping for a collaboration

I hope that she later updates her Instagram with these......pics from her 1st of outfit 😍😍
I like these more than the 2nd outfit. It's very different and she pulls it off so well 😍😍😍
