Among the cast of Princess Pearl , Zhu Hongjia is a prominent name. He played the elegant and refined character Xiao Jian, skilled in both martial arts and literature, and received much support from the audience.

After "Princess Huanzhu ," Zhu Hongjia participated in several films such as "Eastern and Western Love," "Deadly Encounter," and "Wulin Waishi"... However, currently, he seems to be the least prominent name among the cast of " Princess Huanzhu ." The actor only takes on supporting roles on the small screen.

Some of Chu Hongjia's friends say that he is no longer interested in activities in the entertainment industry after the death of his co-star Liu Dan. In "Princess Huanzhu ," Liu Dan played the role of Princess Ham Xiang.

During their collaboration, Liu Dan and Zhu Hongjia were rumored to be dating. After the drama, they frequently appeared together at various events, were praised for being a good-looking couple, and fueled speculation that they were in a relationship.

Just as her career was on the rise, actress Liu Dan was involved in a serious traffic accident. The incident occurred in January 2003 on a highway in China. At the time, Liu Dan was only 25 years old.

According to multiple sources, actor Chu Hongjia and a friend were also in the car at the time of the accident. While Chu Hongjia and his friend sustained only minor injuries, Liu Dan was thrown from the vehicle and suffered a severe head injury that disfigured her. The beautiful actress died before reaching the hospital.

The tragic accident haunted Chu Hongjia for a long time. He refused to give interviews to the media, appeared distraught at the funeral of his close colleague, and gradually withdrew from the entertainment industry.

After the accident, Chu Hongjia lost interest in acting and shifted his focus to business.

In 2018, in an interview with the media, Chu Hongjia clarified for the first time the nature of his romantic relationship with the late actress Liu Dan. He affirmed that he and Liu Dan were only friends and not dating, as the media had reported.

Chinese media once reported that Zhou Hongjia was angry with Zhao Wei for her absence from actress Liu Dan's funeral in 2003. Zhou Hongjia later denied this information, explaining that he maintained a normal relationship with Zhao Wei and they still happily chatted whenever they met.

Since 2020, Chu Hongjia has unexpectedly participated in several entertainment television programs in China after a few years of "lying low". The actor's appearance has surprised many. He no longer retains his romantic look, having gained weight and showing signs of aging on his face.

According to several close sources, Chu Hongjia secretly got married and became a father. However, the actor did not make it public because he wanted to protect his family from the controversies of the entertainment industry.
