Chinese 40-year-old actor Zhang Han has starred in several popular TV and film projects, such as “Boss & Me,” “Meteor Shower,” and “Here to Heart,” collaborating with numerous goddess-level actresses. However, in 2022, he was accused of inappropriate behavior towards a female co-star on the same show, which led to a public outcry and his disappearance from the screen. Around 3 years later, Zhang Han has quietly made his acting comeback, and photos of him playing a high school student recently surfaced, leaving audiences shocked and criticizing that it is hard to watch.
Recently, Zhang Han's costumes in the new drama have sparked heated discussions on Weibo. In the drama, he plays the male lead, and even portray his character's high school phase himself. In the pictures, he sports a youthful hairstyle, wears a school uniform while sitting in a classroom, but the hint of smile lines fails to hide his 40-year-old reality.
In segments aired from the new drama, Zhang Han sometimes makes exaggerated expressions like pouting or glaring at the camera in an attempt to convey a youthful vibe, but it had the opposite effect. When acting alongside an actress in her 20s, he used a deep voice to say, “I don't understand this question, can you teach me,” almost causing her to break character with laughter. Zhang Han's various performances left the audience stunned, with some describing him as an “oily uncle wearing his son's school uniform.”
