The Year of The Horse with Draco Malfoy

May this year bring an abundance of good luck, happiness, and prosperity🐎 Unlike previous Chinese New Years, this year was marked by an unusual phenomenon. This is because, with so many Harry Potter fans in China, Chinese netizens have creatively turned Draco Malfoy into a magical good luck pun for the Year of the Horse🐴
🗿
His Chinese name, 'Malfoy' (马尔福/Mǎ ěr fú), features 'Mǎ' (马) meaning 'horse', and 'Fú' (福) meaning 'fortune'. I find this blend of cultures quite appealing, even if it seems a bit excessive, especially since Tom Felton, the actor who plays Malfoy, not only acknowledged but also responded in this delightful phenomenon🗿
