The clip then shows a scene from the Chinese drama “Summer Again” which features Meijer’s photo. The film crew even edited her face out of her own picture and replaced her with Li Borong - the drama’s lead actress. According to local Chinese media, Li's character in the show is in a relationship with a man named Andre. The program utilized Meijer's Instagram photo to depict Li's character's boyfriend without her permission.
