It's official: Xiao Zhan has relaunched his Instagram account! The actor rose to fame after co-starring alongside Wang Yibo in The Untamed, 2019's highly successfull live action adaptation of BL (Boy Love) novel Mo Dao Zu Shi.
Since then he's gone on to top-bill dramas such as like 2021's Douluo Continent and 2022's The Oath of Love, released several singles—his 2020 release "Guang Dian" ("Spotlight") set the Guinness World Record for the fastest-selling digital album within 24 hours of release—become a brand ambassador countless times over, and won numerous awards.
Fans rely on celebrity social media accounts in order to stay up to date on the lives of their faves, and xiao fei xia (Xiao Zhan's fans, the Mandarin term for Peter Pan) are no different. However, when his Instagram account was hacked in March 2020, he deactivated and stuck to Chinese platforms such as Weibo, Oasis, and Douyin.
After three years of waiting manifesting, international fans can finally celebrate because Xiao Zhan has opened up a new Instagram account, confirmed by his official fanclub on Weibo:
For his first post on February 24, user xz_1991x wrote "Hi, I am Xiao Zhan." and shared a snap of him in front of the Duomo in Milan, where he flew to attend Fashion Week.
On February 25, the actor shared several moody, black-and-white or sepia-toned behind the scenes photos from his trip to the fashion capital.
The star's latest post is dated February 26—dare we hope he'll be updating daily?—and features him enjoying a spread of Sichuan cuisine (he's from Chongqing, fyi!) with a window view overlooking Florence.
Celebrity makeup artist Justin Louise Soriano (who was also in Milan with Heart Evangelista) snapped several close-up shots of Xiao Zhan during the Gucci show for MFW—check out that familar bunny smile!
