Can anyone else relate to being distracted by all the drama off-screen instead of what’s playing on-screen?
Okay, drama friends, tell me if you felt this too…
On August 22, Weibo was flooded with talk about Xu Kai.
The posts quickly spilled over to other social media.
Instead of talking about the drama, everyone was glued to the mess around Xu Kai.
Here’s what was reported on social media:
This is based on what’s been circulating on social media and news reports.
These are not confirmed facts.
Have you heard about it?
🔹 His ex-girlfriend went public with cheating claims and mentioned actress Zhao Qing.
🔹 Xu Kai’s studio responded, posting “Fake!!! Already reported to the police!!!”
🔹 Producer Yu Zheng backed it up, saying the evidence was fabricated.
🔹 He also said legal steps were already in motion.
🔹 Zhao Qing’s side denied she was a third party and said they’re also taking legal action.
🔹 Xu Kai’s legal team followed up with a lawyer’s statement asking people to stop spreading false rumors.
I can’t lie, it pulled focus away from the show.
One minute we’re all excited about costumes and romance, and the next it’s hashtags about real-life drama.
🔥 Let’s SpillTheDramaTea and chat about:
🔹 Will you still watch a drama the same way when the lead gets caught up in a scandal?
🔹 Is it fair to the rest of the cast and crew if fans drop the show over this?
🔹 Or are you just waiting to see how everything plays out before deciding?
For me, Zi Ye Gui had such a promising start.
I’m curious if the story itself can shine through past all this noise.
As a FYI: I’m just summarizing what was already posted online, not claiming it myself.
