Why I like Crystal Liu Yi Fei?..
Crystal Liu Yi Fei is not stunningly beautiful, but she’s definitely cute and have the like-ability factor. It is hard for anyone, any ages or gender to not like a girl like Yi Fei.

Liu Yi Fei first caught my eyes in her role at the TV drama series Demi-Gods and Semi-Devils, her acting was just ok.. but after I discovered that Yi Fei was just 15 when making the scene, I changed my perception about her.. she was definitely showing more potential than one could expected from her age, and lets not forget that i really really really like "Chinitas".. ^_^

Lets wish all the best Liu Yi Fei, watch her shine!
