A Chinese TikToker known as Orange, who has over 121,000 followers on her personal channel, has gone missing after traveling to Cambodia to visit her boyfriend. The 26-year-old influencer, famous on Douyin (China’s version of TikTok), has not returned home as planned, and her family has been unable to contact her or her boyfriend.
According to Mothership, a woman claiming to be Orange’s sister said the influencer had booked a return flight for November 13 but has not made it back to China. Earlier this month, Orange flew to Cambodia to visit her boyfriend, known online as Brother Dragon, who claims to own a restaurant in Sihanoukville.
Before her disappearance, Orange had replied to a comment on her post assuring followers she would return to China soon, confirming her flight was scheduled for November 13.
However, HK01 reported that Orange’s phone has been switched off since November 12, while her boyfriend’s phone has also stopped working. Authorities have found no record of her arriving or clearing customs in China on November 13 as expected.
Family members shared that Orange appeared emotionally stable before losing contact and had no conflicts with relatives or friends. Her sister has raised alerts about the possible missing-person case on Douyin and Weibo and plans to seek help from the Chinese Embassy in Cambodia as well as China’s Ministry of Foreign Affairs.
Fans of Orange have also organized a community fundraising campaign to support the family’s search efforts in Cambodia. Many netizens have expressed deep concern for Orange’s safety and hope she returns home safely, while others question the true identity of her boyfriend.
