The way he deflated like a balloon instantly at her hug and then obediently lowered himself so she could tie his hair — PEAK ROMANCE!!!

Ding Yuxi and his micro expressions

Lately, Ding Yuxi has trended in weibo for his phenomenal acting in Love Game in Eastern Fantasy and people have started calling it "jinjiang style acting" for being able to portray the fancy and wordy description or narration jinjiang (JJWXC) novel authors use. For context, jjwxc is a chinese website for publishing novels.

Someone in weibo has created a compilation of his micro expressions and let me tell you, if you appreciate good acting, watch this.

Link to the original post here.

NOTE: All subtitles were MTL'd! I only added subtitles so that when I rewatch it I don't have to rely on my notes for the translations. It's all really for ease of watching. I apologize if there are mistranslations within the video.

FUN FACT: xiaoding's expression in yyxh was used as a lecture material in a film school in China! This also got trending in weibo.
