A video of Chinese actor Yu Xiaoguang drawing a sketch of his beloved wife Korean actress Choo Ja-hyun went viral online recently. For a long time, Chinese males might have been seen as less humorous and romantic, compared to young men from other countries. But do you know that Chinese men are becoming increasingly attractive to foreign girls now?

“It takes great strength for such an honest man as him to confess that he loves me,” said Anna, a Russian lady who married a Chinese man in 2007, whom she first met in 2004. She thinks that the most attractive quality of Chinese men is the sense of responsibility.

More and more foreign ladies tend to marry Chinese men in recent years. According to statistics of oversea dating websites, Chinese men are in growing demand. They are received as honest, outgoing, responsible, caring, and respectful toward women. Some foreign women whom already married Chinese men also regarded the pairing as a life-changing opportunity.

As the popularity of Chinese dating websites indicates, people are becoming more selective in terms of choosing a spouse. Many Chinese ladies have found their value appreciated more in western countries, so might be the case of Chinese men.
