            No.

            It is a fundamental law of nature that no one could get a good look at that guy and say “Wow he’s hot AF”

            Cute, sure.

            Hot in a better picture, maybe.

            Hot AF?

            No. The universe itself denies it.

            (OP was clearly deceived by the poor quality of the picture, but a zoom in reveals reality)

    It’s somehow reassuring to see that there is occidentalism in Asia that’s every bit as absurd as orientalism in the West. Westerners get Chinese character tattoos which supposedly mean something spiritual but really are a grocery list, Asia gets T-shirts with nonsense phrases in English. The West gets tropes of the “Mystic East” which mash China, Japan, Thailand and India together into a melange of pagodas and temples, Asia gets stories set in “European” settings that combine England, Switzerland and Venice or something similarly absurd. Europe gets Fu Manchu, Asia gets Bobson Dugnutt. And now this.

          I don’t think that tracks with all the exercise they show him doing in prison before then. Or the many comments about his shape before that. I feel like the implied arc is that he went downhill after losing his son and finally does a comeback to break out and meet up with the White Lotus and fulfill his destiny to take back Ba Sing Se.
