虞泪倾城
[yú lèi qīng chéng]
A poetic term where '虞' (yu2) refers to anxiety or concern. ‘虞泪’ means worries transformed into tears. When put with '倾城'(one whose beauty captivates a whole city), '虞泪倾城' suggests beauty tinged with sorrow, highlighting both the charm of a person and their sadness, adding a dramatic flair often associated with tragic romance in Chinese literature and drama.
