A Guangdong-based couple in their 30s has gone viral for their striking resemblance, earning them the title of "most alike couple online." In videos, the pair, dressed identically with similar facial features and hairstyles, appear almost like twins.
In an interview, the wife, Ms. Liang, revealed they met through a blind date in 2022 and married six months later, ending their long-distance relationship. Post-marriage, they launched a traditional Chinese medicine (TCM) retail business together. "We’ve spent nearly every moment together over the past two years—working, living, and growing more alike," she said.
Despite their physical similarity, their personalities differ vastly. Ms. Liang describes herself as impulsive and decisive, while her husband is cautious and methodical. These differences initially caused friction in their business, but over time, they found harmony through clear role division.
Their TCM shop, specializing in Cantonese herbal soup ingredients like red dates and wolfberries, opened this year after months of groundwork. Ms. Liang handles digital marketing, while her husband manages operations and supply chains, leveraging his family’s decades-long expertise in herbal wholesaling.
One major hurdle was overcoming her husband’s reluctance to embrace social media. "He initially resisted self-promotion, focusing solely on product quality. It took two years for him to shed inhibitions and join me in creating content," she shared.
Their contrasting personalities—her fiery drive versus his calm pragmatism—have proven complementary. "We’ve learned to resolve conflicts quickly, united by shared goals," Ms. Liang noted.
Addressing online curiosity about their resemblance, she dismissed DNA test suggestions, confirming they underwent premarital health checks. While their viral fame has brought partnership offers, the couple remains focused on sustainable growth, prioritizing product quality over quick monetization.
Looking ahead, Ms. Liang aims to expand their business while promoting Cantonese herbal cuisine culture. "True happiness lies in mutual growth—both personally and professionally," she reflected.
