I've only seen him in The Untamed so far, but Wang Yibo (who plays Lan Wangji) is one of the most beautiful guys…
I saw Wang Yibo's pictures, it's funny because I actually find him very masculine. Just too young and slender, maybe lack of muscle/roughness. Kind of like the young Ken Chang. Very handsome.
Lu Yi is great too. I especially love his Young Justice Bao II, speaking of that drama, I love Ren Quan as well.
Oh excellent article!! And so glad you went with oldies but goodies, especially since we are inundated with articles…
Did you mean Simon Yam? I really like that guy, his acting is top notch. He played villain roles and even though he does kind of look like one, he's really handsome that way.
I kind of wish the industries isn't all about pretty faces I would rather watch an actor with amazing talent and…
Men got it the easiest. They can look masculine, they're handsome. They can look pretty too, they're still handsome. There is no such thing as ugly men, only men without talent will be ugly.
Can a woman look masculine? No, people will call her ugly. Even if an unattractive woman is talented, people would love and respect her for her talent but they still won't fall in love with her face.
Was born in the 2000's so I never thought about checking out dramas earlier than 2010. Guess it's time for me…
You should try, I even tried watching a few movies as old as the 80s that looked like some Shaw Brothers productions, and a few of them were pretty good flicks.
Omg thanks for writing this! Yanxi Palace is one of the best made drama ever. I love ancient-garb dramas, but many people told me they hate it because the girls are always so useless and whiney. Everything is slow and doesn't make sense. Yanxi Palace proved them wrong! It's super hooking to find out what would happen next in each episode, and the female lead keeps amazing us over and over again without a rest. They put in so much ideas in the plot and characters, while keeping history almost accurate too.
I love the queen very much as well. Even though the king couldn't be loyal to her, the drama did so good at portraying how he really respect her.
Justin Yuan, is that Yuan Hong? Is that his english name? I like Yuan Hong very much too, him along with Wallace…
Oh yes Eddie, how did I forget him. So many guys to remember. He's super adorable. I only watched him in 2 shows, Chinese Paladin and Young Warriors but loved him forever.
Xiao Zhan should be at N°1 on best actor in ancient garbs from kids these days (and not only, he looks so manly…
Xiao Zhan almost reminded me of Vincent Jiao my top fave, the much skinnier and way younger version. I'd yet to complete The Untamed to know more about his acting.

Justin Yuan, is that Yuan Hong? Is that his english name? I like Yuan Hong very much too, him along with Wallace Huo and Hu Ge. My Chinese Paladin guys!
I like Elvis Han very much too, although I did not enjoy Chinese Paladin 5 at all. Base on looks, he is another currently manly and handsome one.
Jet Li’s Fearless is on tv right now and I cannot not watch it. He is so good and so much fun to watch. I like…
I almost wanted to list Bruce Lee, he does happen to look really good too! But I didn't watch all his films. When he was still alive Jet Li and Jackie Chan had no chance in the movie industry.
Chen Long will always be General Meng Zhi to me!Question .... is one of the pictures for Ken Chang a spoiler?…
Oh shoot you're right, sorry I didn't realize that. Yes, he played a historical figure that died heroically. He's not the main character though.
The main character is Yang Ba Mei played by actress Carman Lee. I forgot the ML, but SPOILER BELOW >>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>> >>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>> He got a tragic ending and didn't end up with FL
I like it how you went with older dramas! There were some good ones back then that I watched dubbed in my language…
Dragon Love starred Benny Chan right? I like that show so much too, I watched it so many times as a kid. The OST in there are the best. It is very hard to find these classics now, you might find the raw one if you search up the title in chinese. Use google chrome and translate to english.
I wanted to include Wallace Huo, Yuan Hong, Hu Ge, and many more so badly but 10 is too small!
Wow, thanks for these!! I sure added a lot to my plan to watch lists (and my no subs anywhere list lol). Some…
Hi! I'm surprised you noticed haha. That was me being lazy, copied pasted those titles then write summaries under the ones I watched. I think there was some not listed on MDL yet too.
Bai Qian so beautiful in the wedding head dress. A pity the viel covered everything and also make it look like a fancy mourning dress. They should use a beautiful see through tulle!
This director really sucks. I don’t blame the actors or the story. Once I see it is her I know she is going…
So the same director messed up before? Why was she even given this big project? I don't always agree with Avenuex reviews but most of the time I do, I learned lots of things I would recommend it here.
I agree with her 100% this novel has so much fans it's not a bad story and the castings is great. Even if there are similiar tropes that I'm bored of, if they can direct it in an intersting way I probably won't have any issue. The director really messed up huge time. I noticed the people look too white and weird, until Avenuex pointed out it was the lighting's fault I realize that is totally correct. The casts are really beautiful to still manage looking great when the lighting was so terrible. Some parts are so damn long, they should be conveyed in a few minutes only. And some important parts should be a little longer and show people emotion like Avenuex example, but they didn't show that and rushed.
Lu Yi is great too. I especially love his Young Justice Bao II, speaking of that drama, I love Ren Quan as well.
I was surprised he even produced the song Huang Zhong Ren in Handsome Siblings, I like that music piece very much.
