In a captivating video, Lý Á Bằng showcases martial arts as he portrays Quách Tĩnh, eliciting diverse opinions. Many viewers critique the actor for his sluggish performance, jeopardizing the iconic image he crafted in the past.
Sina reported on October 30th that Lý Á Bằng shared a video reenacting the role of Quách Tĩnh in the 2003 version of The Return of the Condor Heroes. The actor executes various martial arts moves, acts with his eyes, and emulates the classic character.
The video receives a myriad of audience feedback. Numerous comments express dissatisfaction with this performance, criticizing Lý Á Bằng for clinging to past glory in the pursuit of fame.
Several remarks point out the male star's awkward martial arts, ungraceful movements, slow pace, and the lack of the captivating gaze that Quách Tĩnh portrayed 19 years ago.
“Let's cherish it as a beautiful memory; please don't undermine this classic work,” and “The golden era cannot be relived” – two among the few comments left by the audience.
Lý Á Bằng brings back the character of Quách Tĩnh from 19 years ago.
However, many fans empathize with Lý Á Bằng and urge netizens to stop making malicious judgments. The 51-year-old actor's demeanor is understandably different from the past.
Lý Á Bằng's video is a gift that helps the audience reminisce about classic works, and fans hope he will create more content recalling his iconic roles.
According to Sina, Lý Á Bằng is considering a comeback to the seventh art with a film directed by himself. 'Lý Á Bằng hopes to make a film about his life. He is ready but has no investment plans,' Sina writes.
In recent years, the actor has abandoned acting and shifted to business and investments. However, this path has caused some troubles for his reputation. In July, the actor lost a lawsuit and was forced by a court in Beijing to pay nearly USD 7.4 million in debt to Beijing Thai Hoa Real Estate Company.
The actor's life is criticized for his struggling business ventures, continuous losses, and his personal life. Lý Á Bằng had a previous marriage with Vương Phi, with whom he has a daughter named Lý Yên. In March, he married model Hải Hà Kim Hỷ and they have a daughter together.
