Prior to the release of Shang-Chi and the Legend of the Ten Rings, Liu was best known for starring in several TV series, including Kim’s Convenience, Blood and Water, and Yappie.

Shang-Chi and the Legend of the Ten Rings received high praise from critics, especially for Liu’s performance as Shang-Chi and the exploration of Chinese culture and mythology.
Liu took to Instagram to celebrate the anniversary of Shang-Chi and the Legend of the Ten Rings with a post about mental health.

However, in his eagerness to succeed and represent his community, he neglected his own needs and experienced exhaustion.
Hence, on this anniversary, he is celebrating that he is in therapy and is now prioritizing his mental health effectively. Check out his post below.
