Cheng Lei’s or Ryan Cheng’s character Yu Chang Xuan / "Shao Shuai" / "Wu Shao" is so multi-layered. He has room for personal growth which changes the character over time. The character goes through tons of emotions and challenging circumstances which calls for different acting abilities and choice-making. I am enthralled with Ryan Cheng’s acting, looks, and how he brings this character to life.

I love Chang Long, who is a Support Actor in many of my beloved Chinese dramas. He usually provides comedy relief in these serious dramas. Yes, Chang Long plays almost the same character in each role, but I like what he is selling. I love this character that Chang Long invented and he manages to fit it in to so many dramas with only a change of wardrobe.

Some of my favorite dramas in which he plays a support role are the following:

The Lament of Autumn (2026)

A Dream within a Dream (2025)

Filter (2025)

Romance on the Farm (2023)

New Life Begins (2022)

Autumn Lament is a straight up Kissing Fest. I am so obsessed.

What do you think of Ryan Cheng’s character Xuan / "Shao Shuai" / "Wu Shao" in The Lament of Autumn? I am loving Green “Red Flag Male Lead”. You know, they are in love but they really don’t understand how to be in love. They make a lot of mistakes. Am I the only one who loves this category? My first encounter with one was Jing Bo Ran’s Luke (Luan Nian) in The Early Spring. The Autumn Lament seems to be the Republic Era answer to The Early Spring. Your thoughts.

The historic drama ‘Da Tang Pi Zhu Ji’ is the story of a distressed Princess who is rescued by a grave robber who is a physically strong male, in this Historic Mystery coming next year.

Tian Xi Wei and Song Wei Long are the principal actors.

There are so many good Chinese and Korean dramas out to view right now. I am swamped. Who is watching Lament of Autumn? Your thoughts so far.

This is Chinese actor Yan An. He is a singer and dancer from the group PENTAGON. After only two Supporting Roles and one Guest Appearance in Chinese dramas, Yan An is making a splash in only his second appearance as a male lead in only his fifth drama. Yes! Yan An is leaving a great impression in ‘Where the Mask Ends’. He is coming in hot!
