"Second Brother on the Right" Olympic Torch Guard is a Chinese Sex Symbol

Posted by Alex in Blog & Internet, Sports on August 15, 2008 at 11:56 am


A handsome yet unnamed young guard of the Olympics torch as it made its way around the world has become a Chinese Internet hero and sex symbol!

Known only as "Second Brother on the Right" because of his customary position by the flame, the young man with boyish looks and cropped hair is an Internet sensation and nationalist hero.

"They praised him for his 360-degree handsome look, well-built body in perfect proportion, refined and exemplary postures, smile and courtesy to torch bearers, his pals and audience, and determination to safeguard the Olympic spirit," reads his entry in the Wikipedia web database. [...]

"My dear Second Brother on the Right, please marry me!" begged one girl on a site with 542 pages of odes and photos to the nameless hero.

But he better watch out – other guards have also been idolized:

"Second Brother" is not the only hero among the torch guards, who, by contrast with their status at home, were sometimes vilified in the West for being unquestioning representatives of stern Chinese authority.

Other guards have been given nicknames such as "Leading Handsome," "Ravishing Hand," "Kindness" and even "Noodle Soup."

    "They praised him for his 360-degree handsome look, well-built body in perfect proportion, refined and exemplary postures, smile . . . "

    precisely why they didn't let the singing girl show her face. how sad they were right that this is all that matters to the world. for the record, i thought she was adorable.

    I understand he just stood there while an uglier Chinese boy actually did the guarding.
