Playing a Child at 43: Hong Kong Star Criticized for Unbelievable Role

TV Report Views  

Hong Kong singer and actor Gillian Chung (43) has faced adverse reactions for playing a young girl in a film.

On the 25th (local time), the foreign media China Daily reported that Gillian Chung, who played a young girl in the movie Painted Skin, has faced harsh criticism.

In Painted Skin, Gillian Chung portrays Aya, a mermaid from the East China Sea. In the movie, Aya is a young girl who wants to fall in love, and netizens have pointed out that the character is too young for Gillian Chung to play, raising doubts about her acting skills.

The image of Gillian Chung dressed up as a young girl has drawn many reactions on social media. Netizens have commented, “Even if Gillian Chung looks young, playing a young girl is crossing a line.” “It’s so mismatched that I couldn’t focus on the movie.” “It’s a casting mistake.” “The acting is too awkward. The expressions seem forced,” and so on.

Painted Skin is a story about Aya, who sets out to find true love. The movie’s poor box office results are due to its incomprehensible plot development and lackluster directing.

Despite the harsh criticisms, the actor Shia, who appears briefly in the latter part of the movie, received high praise for his excellent acting skills.

Meanwhile, Painted Skin was not released in theaters, but it is a web movie becoming increasingly popular in China.

Gillian Chung debuted in 2002 as part of the group Twins. She later transitioned to acting and has appeared in various works.
