Shu Ran doesn't have a big appetite. She's been doing magazine shoots for years, almost every month, plus with all the variety shows and various events, red carpet walks, she needs to maintain her figure.
She's really tough on herself, to avoid being overshadowed by other female celebrities. She's especially careful when it comes to controlling her figure and skin, saying that maintaining her figure means strict control: she doesn't eat much, doesn't eat overly greasy or spicy foods, and even her previously beloved sweets are rationed—once a week, just a small bite each time.
For her, eating less over these years has not just been a habit but more of a persona she willingly adopts for her career.
So when the show crew offered her a large portion of mixed rice, her first reaction was to refuse. She had to swap it out, fearing that if she couldn't finish it and the cameras caught it, she wouldn't know what kind of ridicule it might trigger from netizens.
