ju jingyi beauty in veil of shadows

When talking about the most beautiful actresses among China’s current generation of top traffic stars, Ju Jingyi is undoubtedly one of the first names many people think of. In 2026, she returned to the small screen with the drama Veil of Shadows. Thanks to director Guo Jingming’s signature visual aesthetics, the actress born in 1994 delivered countless breathtaking scenes that quickly went viral online.

Notably, although Veil of Shadows finished airing on April 17 and many new dramas have premiered since then, Ju Jingyi’s character Lu Wuyi continues to remain among Douyin’s top 3 hottest drama characters. On May 16, the character even climbed back to the No.1 position. The achievement once again proves both Ju Jingyi’s powerful star appeal and the popularity of Lu Wuyi.

For those unfamiliar, Sina previously reported that Lu Wuyi from Veil of Shadows surpassed 10 billion views on Douyin, China’s largest social media platform by active users. More impressively, Ju Jingyi is reportedly the only female star to achieve this milestone in 2026.

In reality, this is far from the first time Ju Jingyi has treated viewers to a visual feast on screen. The idol famously nicknamed “the once-in-4,000-years beauty” previously stunned audiences with her visuals in dramas such as Legend of Yun Xi, Beauty of Resilience, and In Blossom.

In addition, Ju Jingyi has already showcased several striking historical drama looks in her upcoming unreleased projects The Eternal Fragrance and Let’s Fight. Beyond her dramas, the actress consistently impresses fans with her ethereal beauty whenever she attends public events, photoshoots, or stage performances. Her flawless visuals have rarely disappointed the public.

Speaking further about Veil of Shadows, the drama follows the journey of four characters — Lu Wuyi, Wu Shiguang, Wu Wangyan, and Ji Ling — as they search for the power of the Dragon Deity and battle the demon Jiu Ying in order to protect humanity.

As mentioned earlier, Lu Wuyi is portrayed by Ju Jingyi. The remaining lead cast members include Chen Duling, Joseph Zeng, and Tian Jiarui.
