Chinese actor Yu Shi, fresh off his starring role in the hit TV drama ‘To the Wonders’, is having a moment. After skyrocketing to fame in 2023’s fantasy epic ‘Creation of the Gods’, Yu sat down with CGTN’s The Vibe to spill the tea on his latest character, career highs, and what’s next.
From Fantasy Epics to Modern Drama
Yu described his ‘To the Wonders’ role as “a dream challenge”. “It’s not just about sword fights and magic this time,” he laughed. “This character is raw, emotional—it forced me to dig deeper.” Fans of his earlier work will recognize that signature intensity, but he’s leveled up.
The Craft Behind the Fame
When asked about his rise, Yu kept it humble: “Every role is a lesson. You’ve got to respect the process, even when the spotlight feels overwhelming.” He credits his success to “obsessive preparation” and a love for storytelling that started in childhood.
What’s Next?
While tight-lipped about future projects, Yu teased collaborations with “visionary directors” and hinted at exploring indie films. “I want stories that push boundaries,” he said. For now, catch him in ‘To the Wonders’—streaming globally and breaking hearts.
