Hu Jun expresses his gratitude to the audience for their appreciation of the CP in the 2001 gay-themed film Lan Yu he starred in with Liu Ye.

A video of actor Hu Jun talking about his famous CP with actor Liu Ye from the critically acclaimed gay-themed 2001 movie Lan Yu recently went viral on Weibo. He was asked, "Regarding the matter of people being a CP fan of you and Liu Yu, what do you think about it?"

He said, "I am especially grateful to everyone. A single film has caused everyone to talk about it for so long. It's a recognition of me and Ye-zi." (Ye-zi is a diminutive form of Liu Ye.) 

Netizens reacted in the following manner:

1. Same-sex film and TV are not a dark history. Hope everyone knows this. [+30122]

Response: Yup! Don't depend on a same-sex work to become popular, then immediately turn around and not recognize it [+6231]

2. In fact, this is not the first time that the handsome brother has responded to a question about CP. Every time he answers, he's always very unabashed and open. He always thanks all of the audience for their recognition and love towards the performances of him and Ye-zi. [+8444]

3. Same-sex themes are not something that cannot see the light of day. They're worthy of being respected. [+8090]

4. Same-sex film and TV are not a dark history. Don't depend on a same-sex work to become popular, then immediately turn around and not recognize it. I remember previously, I got so angry when I saw the male lead of Love and Redemption ignoring the female lead. Previously, I really loved watching Lanyu, and after I finished, I really had tears in my eyes. To be honest: those who are a fan of the CP Junye are simply the happiest in the domestic entertainment industry, right?  Send my comment to the top! [+7636]

5. He was unabashed and showed tolerance and appreciation. I hope all the liuliangs who are trying to engage in a CP can understand this truth. Don't immediately turn your face and not recognize certain people. Don't act in a particular way, then get angry when others respond to that behavior. I remember back then, every night I would chase Lan Yu. The time would pass without me even realizing it. After finishing watching it, I was uncomfortable for an entire week, they acted too well  [+5610]

6. @Cheng Yi, come out and have a look [+3353]

7. To be honest: those who are a fan of the CP Junye are simply the happiest in the domestic entertainment industry, right?  [+3052]
