anecdotes about yibo during btf filming by his co-stars / video source / :

Lu Xin : i really admire him, because we all know that he is very different as a top star. At the time we were shooting, in the gobi desert, all the actors will stay in tents and big stars like yibo will have their own exclusive lounge. but he only stayed in his lounge area for the first day and never stayed there after that. he stayed with us everyday in our tent, we stay and eat together everyday. we would chat and spend our private time together.

so how did he join us the first time? we were having lunch and grabbed our meals, and ate, so when yibo finished his shots he was supposed to go back to his lounge area and eat. but he came to our tent and stood there. he was a bit embarrassed because there was no seat for him. so he was standing there, pretending to dust his clothes. he had been there for a while and we called him over, grabbed a chair for him. his team asked him if he was eating here or in his area, and he said to bring his food here — i’m eating here. so he stayed in that small corner with his food and ate. I was like — come on, make room for him so all of us started to eat together.

from then on, almost every meal of every day, we all ate together. yibo wouldn’t eat much — his leftovers all fed to those guys — everyday yujia would ask him — yibo are you still gonna eat this? So Yujia ate a lot of Yibo’s food. Yibo never ate extra food. He only ate the food required by his fitness instructor. Very impressive.

Yujia : How well did yibo get along with us? We didn’t have a lot of gym equipment in the hotel, so we’d go outside to train. When we went, people would rarely recognize us as actors. But if yibo went.. yibo wouldn’t usually go to commercial gyms,

Lu Xin : because it would be troublesome, there might be a commotion

Yujia: But he doesn’t care, he asked — where do you guys train? I’ll go there too. There were other people in the gym, he would wear a hat. He just wanted to spend more time with us. So he would get along with us better. He doesn’t have idol baggage. He was really easygoing.

Lu Xin : exactly. he trained with us all the time. for him, going to public places is inconvenient. So he would always wear a hat and mask. Just think about it, it’s hard to exercise with a mask on. But he’d keep it on for more than 2 hrs and that was impressive.

Yujia : Yeah, he was very warm.

au: leiwei ♡ Lei Yu needs medical care after ejecting from the aircraft and falling into the meadow (which he's not very proud of)

Dr. Gu Wei: "it seems that falling from heaven actually hurts." Lei Yu: "Not really. It was swift." Dr. Gu Wei: "I'm glad the grass was soft though, it has cushioned your head"

baby Lei Yu just wanted to look cool in front of his gege 🥺

I'm excited for DD that he has been nominated for best supporting actor in the first year of his film career debut. He really killed that role and brought that character to life, and I feel like he deserves recognition for that performance.

I'm also glad that two of his films have been getting recognition. This will help his career a lot. Even being nominated will help his career. I hope that it gives him more opportunities and more great roles.

Here's my review of Born to Fly.

My previous Hidden Blade posts can be found here.

I was going to link to my review of Hidden Blade and then I realized it's still in my drafts and I haven't finished it. I will try to get to it soon. 😅

A preview of my review: I absolutely loved the film. It's my favorite of all the ones he's released so far. I hope it wins best picture.

DD went through horrible bullying and attacks during the promo, it would be vindication for him to win.
