Even though “The Untamed” (陈情令) has finished airing almost three months already, its popularity is still very strong around the world. The series aired in Thailand earlier. It is currently airing in South Korea and Netflix with plans to air in Japan next year. The topic “Korean Netizens Evaluate Lan Wangji (蓝忘机)” was even trending on Weibo’s Hot Trending list today. A Wang Yibo (王一博) fan by the Weibo handle, “hora_hola” had translated some of the tweets from Korean netizens raving about Wang Yibo and his character, “Lan Wangji” into Chinese. As expected, they love Wang Yibo and “Lan Wangji” just like everyone else.

- “Let’s abbreviate big motorcycle and call ourselves “little motor”?”
- “How about “pabo”? The “pa” in bike + “bo” in board.”
- “Let’s call ourselves a better name!!!!!”
- “How about calling us “Little White”? Doesn’t he have a nickname called “White (白) Peony (牡丹)”?”
- “Peony” isn’t bad either. If anyone asks, then we’ll say it’s because we like Yibo too much. So we want to use a similar name as him.”

Wang Yi Bo is really handsome dressed as Lan WangJi, perfectly matches his face shape and his facial expression you know … Who can stand it? There really is no comparison.
Whot Levi?? Motorbike jiejie as Yibo’s fandom name??? Must be kidding if WY agreed to that! Quite a few interseting suggestions yet chosen a metallic cold unimaginative noun ‘motorbike’? or shouldn’t it be ‘motorbikers’ to described the breathing living fan?? Still coldly unsuitable bc I imagine Yibo’s fans are mostly silly-dizzy, goo-gaga young gurlz that can’t be metaphorically associated with motorbikes -YIKES!!!! Seem there’re one two interesting suggestions but still…..hmmm. Fandom name should be short, catchy, imaginative and intimately, lovingly associated to the idol himself perhaps incorporating part of his name. Whatever, I’d simply refer to WY fandom with a loving kitten pet-name like Yibo’s ‘Bo-Bo’s’. ( ; – }} LOL
yibo’s fans already have a name for ourselves tho,,, its motorbike jie jie (mtjj) thats what he calls us tbh
He is the only Male celebrity that I adore. Not only he is versatile and stunning handsome, because he is true to himself. Because of his passion and love, he works hard diligently with dedication and persistent. He always challenges himself to the next level. I have full respect and admiration for this young man. You will always be my little lion. So please to hear Korean fans going crazy over Yibo. Maybe some day he can star in Korean films. Yibo sounds very sexy when he speak Korean.
Of course the Koreans would vote,vouch and love Yibo because of his experience in Korea and the Uniq group. So yeah, I’m for Bo too!
