This is so funny, whenever there’s a ranking or list, they seem to leave CZY out because he’s too hard to beat 🤣
CZY opened his IG in February last year and gained 3.6 million followers within a year, yet he still wasn’t counted in the list of accounts with the most followers last year 🤣🤣🤣
chen zhe yuan please keep on getting shows w/ good storyline and script 😌💗
Because this drama was so low-key and didn’t receive much hype before it aired either in China or internationally including MDL 🤣 It went largely unnoticed at first. However, it received good reviews after it aired. Many people might not have even known it was released, as there was almost no promotion or trending topics on social media. With proper promotion, the results could have been even better 🥺
Just to go off topic for a moment, CZY is expected to have two more costume dramas airing this year with him as the male lead. If you’re interested, you can find the details on his profile page 😊

We hope so too. Unfortunately, he hasn’t acted in many costume dramas with strong scripts and good production quality in the past. This drama is only A+ production, it had almost no promotion or publicity and wasn’t really cherished by the platform. Still, the quality turned out to be excellent. As a CZY fan, I’m really glad he chose to act in this drama.
any similar dramas? i really like this ML character who isn't controlled by the court or his emperor father like…
The ML character who isn’t controlled by the court or the emperor is quite rare in C-dramas. I’ve only watched Joy of Life where the ML isn’t afraid of anything and is very smart. It’s a masterpiece, you should give it a try if you haven’t watched it yet. https://mydramalist.com/28674-joy-of-life
As fans, we also hope he will take on a modern romance drama for his next role and we are quite aligned with Chinese…
To be honest, he still looks quite youthful outside of dramas, based on the clips I’ve watched recently. Even though he’s already 29, he’s built that way with those facial features and physique but he can appear much more mature or look like a teenager depending on the role.
As fans, we also hope he will take on a modern romance drama for his next role and we are quite aligned with Chinese…
I just want to point out that his modern dramas are very well received, especially internationally. His three modern dramas, Our Secret, HL and TWOT, have each accumulated over a billion views on TikTok (not only HL), along with many millions of views on YouTube.
If his agency is strategic enough, they should seriously consider supporting him in taking on a modern romance drama for his next role.
I’m not making this up, here is the proof from YouTube:
when will zheyuan do modern romance drama? 😭 it's been 2 two years. twot was heart breaking i really want him…
As fans, we also hope he will take on a modern romance drama for his next role and we are quite aligned with Chinese fans who strongly wish for him to take a break from costume dramas and see him in a modern one. We hope his agency will take the fans’s requests into consideration and accept a modern role for him.
As for VS or his next drama, let’s wait and see. Joining VS is fine once his condition improves but for a new drama, I hope his team will find a good one.
I was scrolling through the comments to get to know Chen Zheyuan more, and I remembered there was an account maybe…
Do you mean JFJ? I’m not sure about her, it seems she deleted her account, as she mentioned before that she needed to concentrate on her exam. I assume she needs some time for her own life. I want her back too, but it’s her life, so it’s up to her. Once she’s ready, she can come back anytime.
By the way, I’m also a longtime fan of his...lol. If you want to know anything, please don’t hesitate to ask. I may not know everything about him but I’ll try my best to answer. 😉
I know! It’s so painful to see him go through such an unfortunate event, only to find out that so much of his effort was wasted. But thinking positively, he gained valuable experience working with a veteran actress (I don’t care about the negative comments) and he did everything he needed to do and promised. He himself never complains, so as fans, all we can do is support him and hope for the best.

Hidden Love EP1: 27 million views and the most popular clip on the Youku English channel.
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=guO5E88iiYA&t=2250s
Actually #1-#3 are all HL clips 😁
Our Secret EP1: 16 million views on the Mango TV YouTube channel and the 3rd most popular clip on that channel.
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=m0FPp52mCwc&t=1900s
TWOT EP1: 5 million views on the iQIYI Philippines YouTube channel and the most popular clip on that channel.

And these are just a few examples. Our Secret and TWOT are not available on Netflix where dramas usually reach a wider audience.
We hope his agency will take the fans’s requests into consideration and accept a modern role for him.
I’m kind of lazy to check Weibo today.
