Everyone knows the more complicated, profound, and challenging a role is, the easier Zhou Yun handles it.
In this regard, Zhou Yun's strength is universally acknowledged as excellent.
But at some point, Zhou Yun suddenly lost the ability to portray roles from the current era that aren't so deeply tormented.
Looking back now, signs of this were already apparent starting from the drama "Dingfengbo."
In that drama, even Xu Siyao could steal her thunder.
At that time, everyone analyzed that Xu Siyao benefited from the persona of the character she portrayed, but they overlooked the possibility that maybe audiences just didn't like seeing Zhou Yun play less complex roles.
Just like in the drama "Under the Grand Dress," the fashionable female editor played by Zhou Yun is beautiful, stylish, and capable, succeeding both professionally and personally, seeming so powerful, yet for some reason, it didn't win much audience appreciation.
The drama was still a hit.
