At the annual Blackpool Dance Festival held in Britain in May, Wang Lin and her dancing partner Evgeny Moshenin secured the third position in the Teacher-Student group for their impressive foxtrot performance.
The festival is recognised as the world’s most renowned annual ballroom dance competition, and the category in which Wang competed pairs a professional dancer with an amateur.
Wang is widely known in China as “Aunt Snow” due to her memorable role in the TV series Romance in the Rain, which aired two decades ago.
Her portrayal of the domineering character Xueyi (meaning Aunt Snow) resonated with audiences, leading to her images from the show becoming wildly popular memes on social media.
