do they get someone special to play those instruments in the dramas? guess that’s a silly question, I am sure the actors and actresses don’t play them, so who does? I love them anyway!

That’s not a silly question at all. I think it is not the same in all dramas though. I don’t know it specifically about Asian dramas, but in general actors/actresses usually choose whether they do certain things themselves or not. They might have to learn to play an instrument just for their role. This could be an advantage, cause it makes things look more real on screen.
But off course it’s not always a realistic possibility and in those cases they might indeed hire someone special.

The Untemed 
Every time I see or hear something, my heart opens… Never thought I was hoping for a series, That they shoot more episodes… While I was thinking about other series… You could have done 10-20 fewer episodes of it… All the actors were great, It all fit together 
I think I remember it, Wang Yibo said in an interview that he had never hurt his fingertips the way he did at the time of shooting…was I always looking forward to the next episode… Well, it’s been almost 1 year 
Sometimes frightening how fast time is running
