The cast also held a live stream on October 12 to get to know the members. Yang Yang revealed that he would like to invite fellow “The Irresistible” and “You Are My Glory” cast member, Wang Yanlin, as a guest on “Youth Periplous 3”. Jia Ling also asked Yang Yang if he liked hearing praise for being handsome or being funny. He said he liked hearing people say he’s funny much to the surprise of the others. The cast says Yang Yang is probably tired of hearing he’s handsome, which Jia Ling adds, “There’s a saying that Yang Yang is so handsome that it’s funny.”
