In 2010, Youjun was challenged by a friend to draw a cartoon every day and post it on Weibo, a popular social media site in China. This gave him a lot of exposure and many people wanted to see more of his quirky cartoons that cover the daily oddities of life.  

Youjun is also a critic of censorship and he uses his art to draw awareness to American and Chinese politics. He has depicted the obsession with social media and technology in his illustrations.

According to the talented illustrator, metaphor is hidden in his artworks.
