“洛神水赋”每一帧美如画！网友赞不绝口
6月12日晚，河南卫视端午特别节目《端午奇妙游》凭借一段不到两分钟的水下中国风舞蹈《祈》出圈。
A stunning underwater dance named "The Prayer" was aired on Henan TV just before China's Dragon Boat Festival. The dance interprets the famous "Ode to the Goddess of Luo" by Cao Zhi during the Three Kingdoms period.
In the video, dancer He Haohao performed intricate movements in the water, recreating the elegance of the ancient Chinese goddess.
The beautiful display captivated audiences and trended on Weibo, receiving about 950 million views. Many social media users expressed their admiration.
Even Foreign Ministry spokeswoman Hua Chunying praised it on Twitter: "Unbelievably beautiful! Dancing gracefully like a swan and agilely like a Chinese dragon. ‘Rhapsody on the Luo River Goddess’, an underwater dance performance on Henan TV."
Behind the amazing performance was the hard work of the actors and the creative team. According to the director, dancer He spent 26 hours underwater to finish the shooting.
He, a former synchronized swimmer, wrote about the arduous filming process. She took a breath every 50 seconds and had to maintain graceful and fluid dance movements in the water while controlling her facial expression, even as her eyes reddened and nose bled in the cold.
