Actors I deeply connected with (Chinese)
There was something about their role in certain dramas that made me follow them and attempt to watch every drama that they did...
-
Zhao Lu Si
Chinese
My introduction to her is "Hidden Love", though I have unconsciously watched short clips of "Please Feel at Ease Mr. Ling" and "Who Rules the World" I just didn't recognized it was her.
As I was waiting for HL episode releases weeks prior, I actually have an ample of time to binge watch "Please Feel at Ease Mr. Ling" and currently almost finished with "Who Rules the World."
I could honestly say, she's a very talented and beautiful actress and I don't mind seeing her on my screen all the time. I plan to binge watch ALL of her previous dramas and upcoming ones.

Tan Song Yun
Chinese
Ms. Seven Tan captured my heart in "Go Ahead" and I have been watching out for good dramas with her in it.
But, after experiencing her chemistry with Steven Zhang and Song Weilong (as actors). I kinda became picky of what is her role and her ML. I enjoyed "My Mr.Mermaid" a bit though... but I am looking forward to watch "Flight to You" and "Road Home."

Zhang Xin Cheng
Chinese
His role in "Go Ahead" really touched my heart. I felt more emotions with He Ziqiu than Ling Xiao. I fell for his role as Ziqiu as he nailed both his quirky and emotional side. There were a lot of scenes that his eyes really did the acting especially on his heavy scenes.. it both amusing and emotional to look at.

Song Wei Long
Chinese
Same with Seven Tan... I became picky towards his roles and FLs (they seem to really like casting him with older women as love interest LMAO). I really like his character as Ling Xiao in "Go Ahead" and his acting was good enough to make me want to follow him.
-
Zhang Jing Yi
Chinese
"Lighter & Princess" was my introduction to Ms. Jingyi. The story and her chemistry with Chen Fei Yu made me stay in this drama. Though, the ending of "L&P" was a bit lacking for my taste. So, I tried indulging myself with another drama that she participated in "Fall in Love" (It's my first Chinese Republican drama and I'm loving everything.. the fashion and aesthetics!)..
Both dramas depicted Jingyi's roles smart and calculative female leads. Truly, those kinds of characters are my cup of tea and she really has the characteristic and looks for it.
-
Yang Yang
Chinese
Yang Yang was actually one of the first actor that got me to seriously look at C-drama way back in 2016 when a friend of mine suggested "LoveO2O." So I tried following him ever since. Though, his chemistry with his FL in LoveO2O was a bit stiff and not it for me. I really truly loved the story and how they acted on their respective roles, but it made me picky with whom Mr. Yang is partnered with.
I am currently watching "Who Rules the World." Though, I love Zhao Lusi and both of their characters, but the "spark" was still not there.
But I could really see and agree that Yang Yang is made for historical dramas. He just looks darn good in traditional clothing T^T

Chen Zhe Yuan
Chinese
Chen Zheyuan, I've never seen anyone that has overflowing chemistry with Lusi both in the actual drama and behind the scenes. I truly commend how Duan Jiaxu looks whenever he looks at Sang Zhi after he realizes his feelings (can really say that his eyes does the talking).
After watching Hidden Love, I tried looking for scenes and clips of his previous dramas. I don't know if it's just me or I'm just doting his chemistry with Zhao Lusi a lot, but I have never seen any scene that could replicate on how well he acted as Duan Jiaxu in other romance dramas.
It's still a matter of time because my attention and heart is truly with Hidden Love at the moment.. I haven't fully watched "Mr. Bad" and "Our Secret" yet (to know if what I perceive is true or not), it might take a while because I am eyeing on watching "Handsome Siblings."

Xing Fei
Chinese
"Put Your Head on My Shoulder" was my introduction to Xing Fei. Her dynamic with Lin Yi on this drama was hilarious. Their pairing as a couple was a bit stiff but their characters as comedic duo was well written. Xing Fei's character on this drama really left a mark on me and made me curious how she acts on a different genre. Looking forward to watch other dramas that she participated in!
-
Janice Wu
Chinese
My introduction to Janice Wu was her drama with Z.Tao "The Brightest Star in The Sky." The way Janice acted on that drama was a bit stiff for me. But I gave another shot with "Le Coup de Foudre" and it was much better and fitting for her and not to mention her pairing with Zhang Yu Jian is so cute !
I am now planning to watch "Skate Into Love" as her ML there is Steven Zhang and I'm looking forward to it !
-
Wan Peng
Chinese
Her character, Chai Xiao Qi in "My Girlfriend is an Alien" was... weird. But in a good way ! I could just ride along the fact that she's an alien in the drama and doesn't know proper human practices and just literally does weird stuffs. That gave so much freedom to her character and she portrayed it very well !
The next drama I watched of her is "Meeting You." It was alright and the plot was chill and kind of a slow burn but it was worth it to watch for me.
Both of her MLs in the dramas I watched are complete opposites, but Wan Peng didn't fail to make me feel the chemistry with her MLs.
I like her a lot ! I'd love to watch more dramas with her in it !
