Are chinese ML really that attractive ??

OneWingedAngel · February 17,2025

I have read many chinese web novels where literally the ML's are portrayed as Greek Gods [ like really nobody can touch them ] They would be like most handsome , charismatic , their cold aura and you can never be near them ofcourse except FL . Is it realistic or justttt imagination ?? Does these kinda people really exist in China or wherever ?? Justttt curious because chinese webnovels exaggerate my imaginations so just guessed its based on some reality . No offense to any writers

And they r also about as mythical as said Gods. While beautiful and competent people exist everywhere, u could say the authors ramp-up perfection to somewhat unreachable levels; after all, imagination isn't easily limited.

They still count as creepy stalkers. Just they're the dream creepy stalkers of many girls. Think 50 shades of grey, chinese style.

It's not unique to chinese novels, Japan and Korea love their Beauty Sues just as much.

Honestly after you see the manhua version, you will notice they just korean male lead knock off product.

Just think of it like western girls and their Kpop Oppas.

I feel it's a trope. And normally, the ML has to be like that because otherwise, he'd count as a creepy stalker with the type of things they often do

It's just the author's fantasy of perfection.

The problem with Chinese novels is that they like their metaphors and with cultivation, the characters became ethereal or celestial. The characters' beauty is outside the field of realism.

Not sure about Japanese novels but in Korean novels, the characters' descriptions match with Korean idols very well. For western novels, you can also match the descriptions with some good-looking actors.

Yeah like the things they do . They are most dominant species of earth that treat people so harshly and it is still justified .
