I got to know him through Dashing Youth. His portrayal of the Demon Sect Leader, Ye Ding Zhi, was absolutely fantastic. He looks so handsome with that style too. Thanks to this role, he gained quite a lot of fans and recognition back then.
I have a feeling Blossom of Power is going to be a big hit. I hope I'm right and I can come back here and gloat,…
I hope BOP is a big hit too because it means a lot for He Yu to have continuous success to guarantee his place in the industry. A lot of haters are waiting for that drama to flop and would be the first ones to mock him if it doesn't do well. I just hope the script writer and director do a good job cause they are essential to a drama's success, other than the actors.
As for He Yu, he is a very humble and kind person who is passionate about his acting career based on my observation. He mentioned in his interview that his dream is to become a proper actor recognized by the industry. He earns most of his opportunities through auditions. I've seen all the hardships he dealt with since debut. So, I really need to see him gaining more recognition within the next 2 years. I normally never stan any actor or actress. But I made an exception for him because I think he's worth it. As long as he doesn't make any mistakes and focus on his career, I think he will become big one day because I see so much potential in him.
He is currently getting reading to film a period drama, Di Mou. No official english title yet. They will start…
The plot is set in the northern Yanbei region and focuses on the daughter of the Ren family, a coal kiln merchant Ren Yaoqi and her growth. Ren Yaoqi was sent to Zhuangzi due to family conflicts. Five years later, she returned to the family, resolved misunderstandings among her relatives, dealt with her aunt's calculations and family disputes, and helped her father get a teaching position to achieve financial independence. She met Xiao Jingxi (ML), the son of the Northern Yanfu who had ambitions for the family and country since childhood, and the two went from suspicion and temptation to establishing trust, attracted each other, and finally became partners. After marriage, the two worked together to resolve the many crises in Yanbei and protect the people to live and work in peace and contentment
He Yu plays Xiao Jing Xi, the male protagonist. He's the person in charge of the Xiao family, and is known as the 'most beautiful man in northern Yan'. Since childhood, he has been weak and sickly due to poison in the womb, and he has lived in seclusion all year round, and it is rumored that he may die at any time, but he pays attention to the quality of life and has his own fairy spirit. He is as gentle as jade on the outside but has wisdom inside, and he is as resourceful as FL, and they know and fall in love in the process of cooperating in resolving the crisis in northern Yan.
Can we please stop mentioning unrelated actresses and projects under Blossom of Power page? It's very disrespectful. And please stop saying things like "I like X, but I won't watch it because of Y". As a He Yu fan, I hope that this drama is a huge success for everyone involved, and that fans of the cast should collectively promote this drama because the actors worked hard. I hate it when some ppl use He Yu to hate on his coworkers, then he and his real fans will have to face criticisms from other fandoms. Dealing with irresponsible behaviors online is extremely tiring. I don't care what happens on Weibo or other C social media platforms, but please don't bring anything toxic to international platforms. Meng Zi Yi is a great actress and He Yu respects her a lot as a friend and coworker. Please be mindful of your words!
I just saw a post on TikTok that said He Yu auditioned for his role in Speed and Love but couldn't find source…
yes it's true. He talked about it in the live with the rest of the cast. Someone directly messaged him on Weibo (not through his agent or company), asking if he was interested in the role. After understanding Jin Zhao, He Yu likes him a lot, so he fought for the role until he was casted. To prepare for the role, he learned car racing, observed real life mechanics to learn how they fix cars, and worked out really hard to get the body shape required for JZ. He already knew boxing, riding motorcycles and driving cars in real life. Just like JZ, he has a scar under his eye. So, his physical appearance matches JZ a lot. He Yu earned most of his roles through auditions.
I want to see hot heyu again Which one should i watchDashing youth or sword & fairy
Dashing Youth has better styling, but he's SML so doesn't have a lot of screen time and the fighting scenes are less good cause the director didn't do a good job. But He Yu looks fantastic in it. He has more screen time towards the second-half/ end of the show. Ye Ding Zhi is considered one of his breakthrough roles that made audience notice him.
Sword & Fairy is a smaller production so that styling and costumes are so so. The drama is not super well known because they didn't have money to promote. The plot is based on a very famous game in China. His role has better character development. The fight scenes are excellent and he has more screen time as the ML. He earned respect from a lot of gamers for his accurate portrayal of Li Xiao Yao.
Hmm... I'm really struggling with this one. I'm currently watching ep. 19 and I don't know, it seems to be a miss…
Because the novel written by the author is male centric. The drama already added a lot of highlights for the FL, such as car racing, taekwondo, singing, dancing, fishing, etc., whereas in the novels, these elements don't even exist for her character. The script writer also made the FL more bold and have a stronger personality compared to the novel. But the core of the story is still the ML. The drama adaptation is 80% authentic to the novel. The author and script writer are both women, but the goal of this kind of idol shows is to create a ML who is extremely attractive. It's not meant to be FL centric story to begin with. But the ML character is actually very complex and flawed if you actually understand his character in depth. He made some bad choices due to his lack of love and stability during upbringing. But he slowly learned towards the end of the show. There's character development for both the ML and FL.
Man, where have you been? With this level of talent, HY deserves well-matured projects. He reminds me a lot of…
His company never promoted him seriously. If you look at his past works, he mostly played in small productions, working with non-traffic actors. It was until 2024 when he gained attention for his supporting roles in Legend of Shenli and Dashing Youth that things start to get a bit better for him. But even then, for the role of Jin Zhao in SAL, he got it through audition. His company/ agent didn't give the opportunity to him. He earned it himself.
In today's live, they address a question that some haters are constantly asking: Why He Yu gets to play this role as Jin Zhao and how did he get it?
We finally got a confirmation from He Yu. Someone (most likely from the casting department) directly reached out to him on Weibo, not through his company or agent, and asked him if he was interested in the role. After analyzing and understanding the character, he realized that he really likes Jin Zhao, so he fought for the opportunity several times until he got casted. He earned the role on his own and did a lot of preparation for it. This includes learning car racing and observing real life mechanics in professional settings to learn how they fix cars. He also worked out very hard to achieve the body shape required for Jin Zhao.
He already knew boxing, driving cars and motorcycles because those are his hobbies. He's been boxing for 10 years at least, which is probably one of the reasons he was considered for the role other than the fact that his looks and aura really match Jin Zhao. In the novel, Jin Zhao also has a scar under his eye. In summary, He Yu is the perfect casting for this role and he deserved it. Haters should stop dissing him for a role that he earned on his own and stop discrediting his efforts.
Esther yu might be first billing, but I feel this story is more about Heyu, and I so much loved how Linsui became…
That's because in the original novel, the main plot revolves around the ML, it was never a big female centric story to begin with. The drama adaptation already added highlights for the FL's character such as car racing, dancing, singing, being able to fight, fishing, etc. None of these elements existed in the novel. The author and script writer of this drama are both women. The additions turn Mumu into a stronger character compared to the novel. Mike's character, Lin Sui, also didn't exist in the novel.
