1. Looking back on the long history, we can clearly see that costume dramas, as a strong cultural trend, have swept the entire entertainment industry like a storm, and many heroic men have worn luxurious brocade clothes and stepped onto the screen to lead the fashion trend. But in this dazzling star team, there are also those typical examples of "ancient costumes and ugliness" that make people laugh.
Looking back on the early years of the rise of costume dramas, we can deeply feel the audience's enthusiastic pursuit of those well-designed gorgeous costumes and handsome male stars. Jiao Enjun, Lin Zhiying, Huang Haibing and other handsome male stars shine on the screen, they not only have a handsome and chic appearance, but also show a unique male charm when wearing ancient costumes. Dressed in fine costumes, they seemed to blend in with the costumes, becoming the idols and trendsetters of their time.
However, among this group of star-studded stars, there are also a few surprising representatives of "ancient costumes and ugly". After they wore ancient costumes, their original charm disappeared in an instant, and instead became a visual disaster, making the audience laugh and unable to look at it directly.
Second, the most eye-catching of them is Jin Dong, who was once all the rage in modern dramas, who would have thought that in the classic work "Langya Bang", he was rated as an "ugly man", which became a topic that people talked about after dinner.
With his superb acting skills in "The Pretender" and "The First Half of My Life", Jin Dong once became the perfect male god in the hearts of countless women. His mature and steady temperament and elite president-like charm have attracted fans of all ages, from girls to aunts. However, just when everyone thought that he would continue to be brilliant, an unexpected turning point happened - when "Langya Bang" was released, Jin Dong was unexpectedly rated by the audience as one of the few "ugly men" in the play, and this ironic discovery quickly became a hot topic at the time.
3. Looking back on the past, we will find that as early as when Sun Honglei appeared in "Warring States" with waist-length hair, and Zhu Xiaotian was named "the ugliest man in ancient costume" in "The Legend of Chu Liuxiang", this phenomenon has begun to emerge.
In fact, before Jin Dong, the powerful actor Sun Honglei attracted widespread attention and ridicule for his waist-length hair style in "Warring States". Earlier, Zhu Xiaotian was also controversial in "The Legend of Chu Liuxiang" because of his styling, and was nicknamed "the ugliest man in ancient costume" by everyone. It can be seen that the germination of the phenomenon of "ugly male stars in ancient costumes" has long been quietly growing in the entertainment industry.
Fourth, what is especially commendable is that powerful actors such as Sun Honglei, despite their controversial appearances, ridicule themselves in a very funny and chic way, which makes the audience love and appreciate these actors even more.
When faced with the criticism of his style, Sun Honglei was not angry or dissatisfied, but with his unique humor and open-mindedness, he humorously joked to himself, "This time it may really be everyone." It is his attitude of taking every performance seriously and being full of humor that makes people love this powerful old actor even more.
5. However, we can't ignore that there are indeed some actors whose looks are too thunderous to look at, such as Guo Jingfei's jaw-dropping "bewitching" makeup, Yang Zi's weird and grotesque style in his performance, and Wang Dalu's strong contrast between his figure and the image of "wolf boy", etc.
However, there are also some actors whose looks are too exaggerated to make people laugh. For example, Guo Jingfei's "glamorous" makeup in "Langya Bang 2" is seriously inconsistent with the character of the character he plays; Yang Zi's performances in "Tianxian Pei" and "Ten Years of Night Rain in Jianghu" are difficult to look at; and Wang Dalu's body shape in "His Highness the Wolf" is in stark contrast to the image of the "wolf boy".
6. There is no doubt that an excellent costume drama not only needs the superb acting skills of the actors, but also needs a reasonable modeling design that matches the roles.
Costume dramas have extremely high requirements for the temperament of actors, and it is far from enough to rely on excellent acting skills. Proper styling is also crucial to the success of a character.
