Chinese heartthrob Xiao Zhan may have only ranked 30th on TC Candler’s 2023 list.

But a new online list sees the 32-year-old differently, putting Xiao Zhan as the only actor of Chinese descent to be included in the World’s Top 10 Most Beautiful Faces.

Of course, Xiao Zhan’s inclusion doesn’t surprise us one bit. 

Xiao Zhan, who shot to fame after starring in hit show The Legend, was described as having exquisite features that are just the right proportions.

Many fans naturally agreed with the news of Xiao Zhan’s ranking, with many taking to social media to gush over how deserving he is to be in the top 10.

This new list, which did not say how they got to the final tally, also included Hollywood actor Timothee Chalamet (who came in #1 on TC Candler’s list this year), Blackpink singer Jisoo, BTS’s V and British actor Henry Cavil.

Other than Xiao Zhan, the only other Chinese face is Aespa’s Ning Ning.

This isn’t the first time Xiao Zhan has been included in such a list.

Back in 2019, YouTube channel Top Beauty World crowned Xiao Zhan as its most beautiful face, ahead of Chris Hemsworth and Johnny Deep.

Nubia, a British magazine, also ranked Xiao Zhan first in the Top 100 Most Handsome Faces in the World.

TC Candler, will 2024 see Xiao Zhan overtake Timothee Chalamet as well?
