. In "Thanatos, Drunk", Hong-Chi Lee's performance did not see the jerky in front of the camera, the whole day of drunkenness unreservedly combined with the soul, seemingly random but emphasizing love and meaning, sincerely moved people's hearts
.
In "Thanatos, Drunk", Hong-Chi Lee won everyone's attention with his natural temperament performance. Although Hong-Chi Lee is a young actor, his performance in front of the camera is not jerky. Instead, he puts his soul into his soul and uses strong emotional tension to interpret the distress of the bottom of society
.
Hong-Chi Lee does have a certain temperament that a literary film director needs in his bones. Although there are not too many traces of years on his face, his soul is sensitive and mature enough. The most important thing is that he is crazy enough to try all new things, and he can still endure hardship
