I just want to remind everyone who thinks this is a BL (Boys' Love) series to please stop 😭😭assuming that. If this series were truly a BL series, it wouldn't have passed the review process or received a distribution license from the National Radio and Television Administration (NRTA) in China.

For some context, back in 2020-2021, the Chinese government implemented strict regulations on media content, particularly regarding LGBTQ+ themes. These regulations, which specifically target BL content, were part of an effort to restrict the portrayal of same-sex relationships in television, film, and online media. The government made it clear that such content, if it promotes or showcases LGBTQ+ relationships, would face heavy censorship or be entirely banned from distribution.

The NRTA has stringent guidelines that any series must adhere to if it's going to be broadcast in China. For a series that includes LGBTQ+ themes to be approved, it has to be heavily altered or censored to fit within those guidelines. That means any show with open BL elements, or even characters shipped in a same-sex relationship, is very unlikely to pass the review process.

So agan, I ask that everyone remembers the context here. Due to these government-imposed censorship rules, a true BL series wouldn't be able to pass the review or obtain a distribution license. The content we’re seeing, even if it has some LGBTQ+ themes, likely doesn't fit the typical BL genre as we know it, because it’s been modified to meet the necessary standards for distribution in China.

Yeah, more focus on youth, life family and friendship. I don't know what goes through their minds, why they think like that.

Yup, if this is a BL series, they will not pass the review and obtain a distribution license from the NRTA. Also, we already know that China has imposed new regulations regarding BL censorship, right? But why is someone thinking of this as BL and shipping them?

Okay, thank you.

BL content from China has been censored. Additionally, all BL content from China has already been removed from its original platforms (Domestic).

In 2020-2021, China imposed new regulations regarding the censorship of BL content.

Does everyone know if this series has already passed the review and obtained a distribution license?

Bromance as always.

Bromance content is allowed in China, as the country already has BL censorship.

I came here from TikTok after seeing some posts and comments where people are tagging this as BL.

Next year.

Yes, this series has a distribution license and has passed the review by the National Radio and Television Administration.

So, it's definitely not a BL; it passed the review. I saw some comments on TikTok shipping them and asking why it's not a BL 😭😭.

No, only hallucination/dream of FL.
