Jeremy has today (06/09/2024) posted a lengthy message of apology to his fans for the shock announcement of his retirement in March this year. He explains that his father has been ill with dementia for the past six years and that right now he would like to dedicate his time to take care of his family. He thanks all the fans for their encouragement and support. I assume this is some sort of face-saving compromise that will allow him to get out of the agency contract peacefully and to keep his name (his name was changed after he joined the agency so they probably have him over a barrel with this). It will, however, block his way to a comeback until the family situation has been resolved.
What’s up with the episode count? It has suddenly changed to 40, but before it was 50…I haven’t seen any…
It depends on the platform and the mood of whoever is in charge… Usually, they drop 5-6 episodes the first day and then two episodes per day in the first week. Then they start playing around and you may get two episodes every day from Tuesday to Friday (or any variation of days). It’s a bit like drug dealers, they first get you hooked and then they leave you hanging 🤣 The trick to be able to watch episodes continuously is to only watch a few instead of binging. That way you can spread the available episodes to have at least one to watch every day. Of course you will be one step behind the people who watch all the episodes immediately, but when they whine with withdrawal symptoms, you still have something to watch 😄
Based on the leaked date, release date: 14/09/24Most of these leaked are mostly done by the producers so it may…

is this show good ? wanted to start. any spoilers ?
I like it a lot, but it depends what you’re looking for… This one starts off very light-hearted and humorous, but gets more serious as it progresses. The ML doesn’t fit the classic idea of powerful male lead, he is more of a wily, funny character, but the acting is absolutely delicious, especially in the funny scenes. The romance develops rather slowly which is fine as it isn’t the dominant element in this drama. Some of the side-character (Mr Yu front and centre!) also impress acting-wise.
Based on all the info here and there, it really seems we will get this drama this month (they are releasing something…
I heard there was going to be some press conference or event in Beijing…I don’t know if it’s today or later. Apparently, Jeremy is already in Beijing so must be soon… It’s good to see things moving in the right direction.
It seems like the situation is solved now. So maybe the Drama will air
Just because the studio said it’s solved, doesn’t mean it’s solved and ZHW’s statement sounded a lot like “the dog ate my homework”. If the police investigate they may dig up all sorts of unsavory stuff. I really want this to air because ZYC has been so unlucky with his dramas not getting aired, however, I also believe that ZHW is the scumbag that he appears to be (it’s not the 1st time this agency is involved in problems with prostitution…) so I have very little hope for this to air any time soon.
Jeremy fans, here’s your opportunity! How would you like to work for the agency that our boy was desperate enough leave to give up his career? Star Media have today posted a job advert looking for a screenwriter and a production assistant on Weibo using Jeremy’s name and picture to show what a fabulous place to work they are.

I don’t think his retirement from acting is final. He said in the interview that he gave for the promotion of…
That’s the 1-million Dollar question 😄 Nobody seems to know. In March it was said to end “soon”, but that is a very elastic term. We also don’t know if there are any clauses that would prohibit him from working immediately after the contract ends. These agency contracts tend to have some strange rules and his agency will try to milk his work as long as they possibly can. As far as I have seen, he is the only artist they have who gets any decent roles that bring in money.
Yes if this is coming soon so why there is no promotions and didn't even received license.. so may be this is…
What I find peculiar is that there was a bit of promotion with the Qixi pics and a few articles on entertainment websites, but it all has suddenly stopped. Still, I saw another melon yesterday saying that it would air after Love’s Rebellion.
Did he really quit the entertainment industry for good? Imagine my shock when I first heard it..he's so talented…
I don’t think his retirement from acting is final. He said in the interview that he gave for the promotion of Burning Flames that he would like to try his hand at directing or be a producer or an actor again after his break. There will certainly be a change away from the idol dramas that his agency forced him to do, but first he needs to break free from them and right now, nobody seems to know how long that will take. Yes, the dubbing is really a waste of that grand voice, but again, I don’t think that he had much choice in that.
Only provided it will have obtained a broadcasting licence by then. So far I have not seen any news on this…I…
Yeah, what’s the deal with that one? I never saw any news that it had been shelved for one reason or another, they just somehow “forgot” about it. At least with Jeremy’s shelved drama ‘Braveness of the Ming’ we know the reason why it got canned. The sad thing is that every actor/actress who’s been around for a while has at least one drama that never aired. It must be so frustrating to put in all that work and then see nothing come of it.

Yes, there were other rumours (before tHey all started talking about early September) that suggested it would come for 1st October which would be a very good moment because it’s a holiday in China (National Day). So let’s keep praying that everything goes smoothly 🙏

Both of them can act and both are easy on the eye, I would be curious to see what their chemistry will be…
