    Its interesting. After some looking around and linked posts, this is not entirely true or at least confirmed.

    Chen picked up Chang in a bridal carry for a photo after they receiving their gold medals, which led many netizens to joke that Chang and Chen are in a romantic relationship

    Is the ‘bridal carry’ what the american diver next to them is surprised at? Seems like an overreaction to me if its only that

      That’s a totally believable action if you just saw someone doing something you perceived as romantic, and you didn’t know they were together, and also you’re a big fan of them so you like that they’re together.

      That’s exactly the face I’d make I’d I realized two people I liked were a happy couple.
