China Airlines stated that Zhang Yafang, who has worked at the airline for nearly five years, earned the celebrity lookalike nickname "Little Sun Li" during the airing of "Empresses in the Palace" due to her similarity to the actress. Among colleagues and regular passengers, she is also known by the nickname "[[", and has even had passengers say "Goodbye, Your Highness" as they disembarked.

Zhang Yafang said she is a fan of Sun Li and especially admires the actress's acting skills. She is also deeply impressed by Sun Li’s frequent involvement in social welfare activities. In her spare time, apart from watching dramas, Zhang also volunteers in activities such as helping the homeless and caring for stray animals.
