This is not a soulmate drawing. This is a stock photo next a picture of a Middle Eastern man that's been edited with a phone app filter

The question itself sounds ridiculous. Can Master Wang really draw your soulmate? Even if this was real (And spoiler alert, he’s not real), what would you do with a picture of your soulmate? It’s not like you can just carry it around eyeballing people to see if they are a match.

In theory, you could make a wanted poster with the sketch on it. However, you’re kind of limiting yourself by geography there. Regardless of these logistical hurdles, Master Wang and his soulmate drawings are a scam.

It’s an unassuming scam, no doubt. It’s definitely more charming than The Scrambler: Unlock Her Legs System that promises to show you how to Jedi Mind Trick your way into sex. Master Wang is also more wholesome than giant leaky douche Christian Hudson promoting his Social Man dating tips scam.

However, let’s make one thing perfectly clear. Master Wang cannot draw your soulmate. In fact, Master Wang isn’t even a real person. And that makes all of this a scam.

How can Master Wang really draw your soulmate if he isn’t real?

Before we begin, you should really watch this video explaining the Master Wang origin story. We can’t embed the video to play on this page, so when you click on the image you’ll be kicked out to his site. Don’t buy anything there.

Do You Know What Your Soulmate Looks Like?

There are a few key points from the video we need to highlight:

• Master Wang is famous in China
• He chooses to live on the street
• Someone setup a website for him
• He will need to soon stop allowing requests

None of this makes any sense whatsoever. Firstly, there are nearly 1.4 billion people in China. That means a lot of lonely singles. If Master Wang was really famous there, he probably has more work than he can already handle. Which totally negates the claim in the video that he will soon need to stop allowing requests. Either he’s not famous in China or there is no capacity to his workload. But it can’t be both.

Secondly, everyone in China is connected to the internet. Beggars use QR codes there. The idea this guy needed help setting up a website because he lives on the street is a crock of shit. This part of the story also makes no sense.

Plot holes in Master Wang’s origin story aside, what’s up with them only using stock footage for the video? It looks highly suspicious that there isn’t a single photo or even a sketch of the dude in the entire presentation. Especially considering just how famous he is in China. And no, protecting his identity is not a valid excuse.

It’s not like foreigners who happened to know what he looked like are going to go to China trying to find him using only a photo. Their search would be fruitless if they did.

That’s because Master Wang isn’t real. Nothing in this or any video promoting his service or the website itself shows any tangible evidence of this being a real person. Maybe this is some sort of artist sweatshop. Maybe it is a computer program. Whatever the case, this drawing of your soulmate isn’t coming from any Master Wang character.

Blind leading the blind

It is impossible to have more than one soulmate. You can try to finagle the explanation all you want, but there is something implicit in the word. However, when you sign up to have Master Wang draw your soulmate, there is something unconvincing about the process. Let’s go through the steps together.

Can Master Wang really draw your soulmate 1This warning is a bit dodgy, but nothing suspicious so far. Let’s keep moving.

Master Wang asking about astrology stuff seems legit enough. At least in this context.

Okay, this question raises some eyebrows. I mean, he can’t input data into his vision before having it or then it’s not really a vision.

Bingo. You don’t get to pick what race your soulmate is. Either they are your soulmate or not. Has Master Wang never heard the phrase “love is blind” and all that other stuff? You pick the race and gender of your soulmate and then he takes this information to have a vision. That’s not how visions work.

No guarantees

Let’s say you purchased Master Wang’s soulmate drawing and found a person who looked like the picture. What now? Walking up to a random person on the street with a drawing and telling them he or she is your soulmate seems like a foolproof plan. I’m sure that person will be down to marry you on the spot.

However, that’s not guaranteed. Maybe, just maybe, they will think you are crazy. Or maybe they won’t think the drawing looks like them. And what about identical twins? It seems unlikely that drawing is going to specify which twin is your soulmate. You might end up in some Inception-esque life that’s a lie. Unless, of course, Master Wang also has a soulmate top you can spin.

Alternatively, you can spend the US$19 or whatever he’s charging these days to buy something useful. Master Wang may not be able to draw your soulmate, or even be a real person, but someone will gladly take your cash for a random doodle.
