I really dunno much about how the new rules could have affected Unchained Love tbh. But, I doubt it would affect the Joy of Life series because ZRY said in an interview he did recently that Joy of Life would start filming next year

From the way I framed my sentence, it's obvious that those aren't my own words and that I'm just reporting/quoting something that I saw. If you have a problem then take it up with the person who posted it on Twitter

I saw a post saying this drama didn't pass censorship. I guess that's why it disappeared from the upcoming dramas list on Iqiyi :(

It has always been 2023 on the international website. They haven't changed it to 2022 yet unlike the Chinese website

According to this screenshot from Douban, 1st November is the confirmed premiere date!

Thank you!!

Iqiyi's Chinese website has listed Forbidden Love in its 2022 lineup! They also released new stills which means it's probably going to air very soon

Apparently it wasn't because of the national day but because the CCP would be holding elections this month. So all platforms are putting the release of their major dramas on hold

I hope so, we've waited too long

I saw a rumour that it was because the Chinese National day is on the 16th so they don't want to risk getting on the bad side of the government if discussions surrounding the show overshadows the celebration

It's not supposed to be an epic. More like a cute romantic fairytale a la Beauty and the Beast, Cinderella etc. Which is probably why it's a rather self contained story and doesn't span multiple lifetimes or ages unlike other Xianxia.

I guess people like it for the same reasons they like the western fairytales I mentioned earlier. Personally it gives me nostalgia about when I first watched Disney's Beauty and the Beast as a kid. It's nothing particularly new or groundbreaking but just a combination of tropes done right.

They were both in a drama Lost Love in Times where they played brothers. For the first 10 episodes, I kept confusing them for each other because they looked SO alike... almost like twins

Just saw a rumour that this is airing in November

Because he lost all his powers/spiritual energy after being sealed. When he regains it, his hair turns black

Some people might be waiting for more episodes to air before they can rate it. Maybe because they don't want to give it a premature high rating

That was a very solid first episode. I hope the entire story keeps the same pace

Nooo! That's so far away 😩

Dylan's character's brother was the real eunuch but was murdered. He stole his brother's identity and entered the palace to find the murderer and get revenge.

The Douban score just hit 7.9! I'm hoping it goes up to 8.0

Thank you. She attacked you for no reason too. I'm sorry about that.

Some overzealous fans really need to chill out and stop causing fan wars over little things.
