LayarHijau – The VOGUE China 20th Anniversary Gala, held in Shanghai on Wednesday (Oct 23), turned into a star-studded night filled with surprise reunions of beloved drama couples. Among the most talked-about moments was the romantic appearance of Li Qin and Chen Zheyuan, the lead actors of the historical romance Fated Hearts (一笑隨歌), which recently aired its finale.
Their joint appearance immediately sent CP (couple pairing) fans into a wave of excitement. Many described it as “a dream come true,” especially since Fated Hearts ended without the long-awaited wedding scene between the two characters. At the gala, however, Li Qin and Chen Zheyuan looked every bit like a bride and groom meeting again in a modern world.
Li Qin graced the red carpet in a stunning black-and-white haute couture gown with delicate lace details at the bodice, highlighting her refined elegance. Chen Zheyuan looked effortlessly handsome in a sleek black suit paired with a white billowy-sleeved shirt and a luxurious leather coat. During their photo session, he removed his coat and jacket, gently wrapping his arms around Li Qin as she held a single red rose. Their faces nearly touched—an intimate image that made netizens gush, “You can feel the love through the screen.”
Photos shared by both actors on Weibo quickly went viral. Fans gushed over how natural and romantic they looked together, calling them “the reincarnated version” of their Fated Hearts characters. Many also wished for a new drama collaboration, praising their undeniable chemistry both on and off screen.
The gala also featured other highly anticipated reunions. Ma Sichun and Zhou Dongyu, who starred in the award-winning film Soul Mate (七月與安生), reunited on the red carpet, playfully recreating their close bond.
Victoria Song and Song Weilong from Find Yourself (下一站是幸福) also appeared together, sparking nostalgia among fans who said it felt like watching “an extra episode” of the hit romantic drama.
Meanwhile, Zhang Yuxi and Bi Wenjun—fresh from their recently concluded series Deep Affection (深情眼)—were also spotted together, charming fans who said their reunion felt like “a continuation of their story.”
With multiple beloved pairings reunited on one glamorous stage, the VOGUE China 20th Anniversary Gala became the ultimate night of nostalgia and chemistry for drama fans—where fashion met romance, and fiction briefly came to life.
