It\u2019s May in Beijing\u2014winter\u2019s chill has passed, and the heat of summer has yet to arrive. The weather is gentle and comfortable, and the rays of the sun are bright without being harsh. One could say it mirrors Song Weilong today. His youthful naivety has faded and his intensity has not quite reached its peak. Everything is in perfect balance. Standing tall at 185cm he moves effortlessly between styles, and a subtle smile in front of the camera reveals a quiet confidence and maturity. It\u2019s clear that at 27-years-old, Song is no longer just a \u201cnational heartthrob\u201d, but an actor who knows exactly where he\u2019s headed.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

In the drama \u201cShine On Me\u201d\u2014which aired at the end of last year\u2014Song Weilong played Lin Yusen, who quickly became a national heartthrob in the eyes of many viewers. A former neurosurgeon who transitioned into the corporate world after an accident, Lin is portrayed as cold on the outside but warm within, sharp\u2011tongued yet tender, paving the way for a healing love story built on mutual understanding.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

When asked about the role, Song says earnestly, \u201cFrom the character\u2019s perspective, I really empathise with him.\u201d He feels he and Lin share similarities in that both have moments of vulnerability, but also carry a strong sense of responsibility. The real challenge in acting, he explains, comes from the dialogue and technical jargon. \u201cBusiness terms, medical terms\u2026 I had to put in a lot of effort to make it convincing.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Song didn\u2019t \u201cstudy\u201d techniques to get in character, instead choosing to fully become Lin from the inside out. \u201cI understood his pain at the time, I understood the loss of the career he loved, and I understood his heartbreak. But as Song Weilong, I often didn\u2019t think too much\u2014it was all about empathy.\u201d This ability to step into another\u2019s shoes, to understand and truly feel their emotions is what shapes his acting style. It\u2019s not about piling on the acting techniques, but letting emotions  develop naturally from within. In a way, isn\u2019t this a form of mutual understanding?<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Our conversation reached a pivotal moment in Song\u2019s acting career: the 2020 drama, \u201cGo Ahead\u201d. He looks back on his role as the pseudo-mature Ling Xaio with warmth. When asked about his own thoughts on naivety and faking maturity, Song smiles and says, \u201cHonestly, I don\u2019t really understand what the definition of maturity or immaturity is supposed to be.\u201d <\/p>\n\n\n\n

In his eyes, Ling Xiao is someone successful, intelligent, and able to shoulder family responsibilities, yet someone that also grapples with childhood trauma, moments of vulnerability, and a longing for a home. \u201cI think that\u2019s what makes someone human. Everyone has their own needs and desires,\u201d says Song. \u201cIn real life, most people are just pretending to be adults, but deep down there\u2019s still a child living inside them.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Song entered the industry at just 16-years-old. Now that he is 27, it has been almost exactly ten years. In reflecting on the biggest change that occurred over the course of that decade, he can\u2019t pinpoint an exact moment but instead says, \u201cIt\u2019s only after walking a certain distance and looking back that I realised I had already changed.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Reflecting on his ten-year acting journey, Song speaks candidly about experiencing periods of inner turmoil. \u201cBack then I would get stuck in those emotions, constantly wondering why I had to feel this way, and why things happened to me. Now, when I encounter something negative, I might worry for a while, but can quickly jump out of that emotional spiral.\u201d <\/p>\n\n\n\n

\"\"<\/figure>\n\n\n\n

These days, Song has learned to view things from a higher perspective, believing many things happen for a reason and are perhaps a result of the world’s natural rhythm. \u201cI just go with the flow, follow what the world has in store for me,\u201d he says, and even compares life to an online game. \u201cLife is just about taking on little quests\u2014treat it like playing a game. If you feel bad, feel bad; if you\u2019re happy, feel happy. It doesn\u2019t matter, just let it pass naturally.\u201d He recalls a quieter period in his career, but never overthought it. \u201cWhen you need to recharge, you have to rest. It\u2019s a matter of self-awareness.\u201d <\/p>\n\n\n\n

You could credit this shift in Song\u2019s mindset to his childhood martial arts training. Inspired by the \u201cShaolin Temple\u201d film, he decided to learn kung fu at the Shaolin Temple at the ripe age of nine, saying that he was \u201cquite capable of enduring hardship\u201d. Although life has softened his edges, he believes he is able to withstand tough environments because \u201cit has already become a habit\u201d. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

If Song could travel back in time to his younger self ten years ago, when he had just entered the industry and was easily hurt by criticism, he would simply give himself a hug. \u201cJust a hug. Don\u2019t deny yourself, don\u2019t attack yourself.\u201d He describes his current self through the \u201cSoul\u201d and \u201cInside Out\u201d movies, perhaps to say that he accepts every one of his inner voices and has learned to flow with fate.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Looking ahead, Song doesn\u2019t have an overly specific blueprint for his career, but it\u2019s clear he\u2019s building momentum. Following \u201cShine On Me\u201d, he has several upcoming projects on the horizon including \u201cLove For You\u201d where he plays a rebellious teen named Chen Yi, and \u201cThe Eternal Fragrance\u201d where he steps into his first fantasy role as Lei Xiu Yuan. The road ahead may be long, but after ten years in the industry, Song\u2019s passion for acting burns as bright as ever. Gone is the rush to prove himself, he has embraced his natural path forward, steady and sure.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
