After the distribution license is issued how much more time it takes to be released ??
Once a drama obtains a distribution license, it can be released soon or ready for broadcast. However, the actual release date depends on the production company, the broadcasting platform, and market conditions. Some dramas air within a few weeks, while others may be delayed or take longer due to scheduling adjustments or strategic release timing.
For high budget dramas, pre-broadcast investment promotion typically takes place before the drama can air. This process involves securing investors and sponsors, which is often necessary to finalize the distribution and marketing budget. During this stage, the production team or platform usually announces only a tentative release month or quarter rather than a fixed date. The official release date is usually confirmed later, based on factors like platform scheduling, competition from other dramas, and etc.
For iQIYI, they still haven't posted the April list. As for Youku, their last update was on February 28. They have already released a tentative drama list for March-April, some of the dramas on the list are currently airing, finished airing, and soon to be released. There are two dramas that haven't aired yet but are on the list: Eat Run Love and Hidden Shadow.
