#SHOWBIZ: Gold standard idol: Ding Yuxi gifts fan RM20k necklace after concert proposal

BEIJING: When fan King Jiujinjin attended Chinese actor Ding Yuxi's concert in Chengdu, her boyfriend surprised her with a proposal during the performance. The couple, who were attending the concert together for the first time, prepared gifts for each other. After the proposal, the unforgettable experience became a unique memory for them.

Later, on August 17, Ding Yuxi revealed that he had come across the fan's viral video at a jewellery brand promotional event. He bought a gold necklace as a dowry gift for the fiancé, costing around 32,970 yuan (approximately RM20,000). This generous act comes as no surprise to fans, as Ding Yuxi is known for his unusual generosity towards supporters, often sharing videos of himself packing gifts for them.

He funded travel expenses for six fans returning home across China for New Year's Eve, spent 44,000 yuan on gold jewellery for fans in Shanghai, and distributed beads to admirers at the Versace Filmmakers Dinner in Beijing. Ding Yuxi rose to fame through his role in the 2020 hit series The Romance of Tiger and Rose, followed by starring in Moonlight (2021), Love You Seven Times (2023), and Mu Ziqi in Love Game in Eastern Fantasy in 2024.
