On January 12, Taiwanese media outlet ETtoday reported that Chinese paparazzi had released footage involving He Changxi and Su Yiyang. In a video shared by an entertainment blogger, He Changxi was seen heading directly to Su Yiyang’s home after work. The pair were captured embracing at the doorway, with Su Yiyang even touching He Changxi under the arm, a gesture that quickly drew attention and fueled speculation among netizens.
Rumors suggest that the relationship between He Changxi and Su Yiyang may have existed for some time. The two previously worked together on a web drama, after which netizens frequently spotted signs of them appearing at the same gym. They were also rumored to have traveled together to the Hangzhou forest lake area during a holiday in 2024.
He Changxi, 29, is a former contestant on Youth With You and a member of the now-disbanded boy group UNINE. He has since left the group and is reportedly set to star in an upcoming drama adapted from a danmei (boys’ love) novel. Su Yiyang, born in 1995, earned a master’s degree in acting from the Beijing Film Academy in 2016 and has appeared in idol dramas such as Hard to Coax.
Following the release of the intimate images, some viewers questioned whether the situation was a publicity move designed to attract attention to He Changxi’s upcoming project particularly given its danmei origins. However, others dismissed this theory, pointing out that Su Yiyang is not his co-star in the new drama.
ETtoday also noted that paparazzi in mainland China have historically avoided openly tracking or reporting on same-sex relationships involving celebrities. As a result, the sudden exposure of He Changxi and Su Yiyang has been viewed as a rare case within the landscape of Chinese entertainment rumors, further amplifying public interest in the situation.
