Gerong Phuntsok and Dawa Drolma's stylish pre-wedding photos have
captivated the attention of millions of online users in China.
Gerong Phuntsok and Dawa Drolma,
from Tibet, a very small minority group in China, did their photo shoot
in both modern and traditional attires and shared it on social media.
According
to Xinhua, China's official state news agency, the stylish photos have
been viewed by 80% of internet users in China, which would mean hundreds
of millions of people
.
The groom, Gerong Phuntsok, explains the concept of the photoshoot and why it has become so popular:
"Maybe
we represented thousands of young people from ethnic minorities, who
left their hometowns to pursue a 'modern life' but chose to return to
tradition after feeling a void in the heart. I think we found an echo
with other web users. As we fight for our dreams, some of us get lost.
So we wanted to say with the photos: stick to your beliefs."
