2023-06-07
Recently, Dong Jie gave an interview where she talked about the past decade and her current life. Her friends claim that she never complained and emphasized the support she received from her family.
Regarding the influence of the divorce controversy in 2012 on her acting career, Dong Jie's friend and documentary director Gan Lu said, 'When we met, Dong Jie looked exhausted and thinner. She even mentioned her desire to go back to school.' Gan Lu stated that Dong Jie never complained about Pan Yueming, her ex-husband, and focused more on the support from her family.
Dong Jie recalled, 'Those ten years were indeed chaotic. Everything fell apart except for my family. It felt like twenty years had passed in my life during those ten years. I was not mentally prepared to accept myself as an adult. I was quite stubborn and took my work step by step, filming every year. The road after turning 30 was crucial to me. My entire perspective on life was built after the age of 30. I will work harder to do well in things and dare to try.'
At the age of 43, Dong Jie unexpectedly gained popularity through livestreaming. This time, Dong Jie entered a new public sphere where fans encouraged and appreciated her. They discussed life and beauty with her, seeing her as she is now, not as she was in the past.
Looking back at the past decade, Dong Jie summed it up with two words: reflection and learning. She stated that she has been continuously moving forward without stopping.
