BLGLFlix editorial view
The group he won a place in was built to disband, and it did, on schedule.
Jia Yi (嘉羿), real name Huang Jiaxin, plays Zhan Wang in Lost to You (沦陷). He had already debuted in 2018 with the group Mr. 钛戈, then placed fifth on Youth With You in 2019 and joined UNINE, the group formed from that season, which was dissolved in October 2020.
Chinese survival competitions produce groups with an expiry date written into the contract. The show generates enormous attention, the winners work for a fixed term, and then the group is wound up and every member is returned to the market alone, carrying whatever audience they managed to keep. It is an unusually explicit arrangement, and it means a large number of Chinese performers arrive in acting at roughly the same career stage for the same structural reason.
His route afterwards is the standard one: a solo EP in 2021, then screen work in the same year with My Bargain Queen, and a steady run of dramas since.
His birth year is disputed between two parts of the same source, and this page records that rather than picking the more convenient figure. Where a source contradicts itself, saying so is more useful than choosing quietly.
