When Wang Yibo speaks candidly, people listen. The Chinese superstar recently found himself trending again, not for a drama or a brand deal, but for a quietly honest answer about marriage that struck a chord with viewers. During a new episode of Exploring the Unknown with Wang Yibo Season 2, his reflections on life, work, and personal space quickly became a hot topic online.
In one segment of the programme, Wang Yibo was asked whether he has thought about getting married or starting a family in the future.
Without hesitation, he responded that it still feels very far away for him. According to Wang Yibo, his current life stage is completely filled with work, responsibilities, and the demanding pace of the entertainment industry, leaving little room to seriously consider such a big personal step.
He went on to explain that being a public figure comes with its own limits. In public appearances, he feels unable to fully show his true self and is often expected to appear flawless.

Behind the polished image, however, he admitted that he is just an ordinary person with imperfections. Despite that pressure, Yibo said he is genuinely satisfied with where he is now and feels more connected to real life than ever before.
The episode also revealed a softer, more reflective side of the actor-idol.
Wang Yibo shared how a recent special journey helped him relax mentally, especially when spending time with friends who share the same passion for rock climbing. He described the joy of gathering with people bonded by a common interest, chatting freely, and enjoying the sport together.
For him, that shared love and sincere communication are what make climbing so meaningful and grounding.
As expected, Wang Yibo’s remarks sparked wide discussion among fans and netizens. Many praised his honesty, saying it was refreshing to hear a top celebrity speak openly about personal boundaries and industry pressure.

Some fans expressed relief that he is prioritising his well-being and career, while others noted that his answer felt mature and realistic rather than evasive.
There were also voices encouraging the public to respect his private life and not rush him into social expectations.
Known to be single and rarely linked to dating rumours, Wang Yibo has consistently kept his personal relationships out of the spotlight. His latest comments only reinforced his image as someone focused on growth, passion, and professional commitment rather than ticking off life milestones on a set timeline.
What do you think about Wang Yibo’s perspective on marriage and public life? Do you agree with his choice to focus on the present rather than future labels, or do you see it differently?
