I'm sorry, but the way this entire situation has been handled is downright unprofessional and insulting to the viewers who have been supporting the show from day one. That post offered no real explanation. Just vague nonsense about a "better viewing experience"? Seriously? Then where was the communication these past few days? Radio silence while fans were left confused, anxious, and waiting? You don’t go completely MIA and then return with a half-assed, empty post that clarifies nothing. 😭
I know something is clearly going on behind the scenes, and instead of being transparent, they’re feeding us vague PR lines and hoping we’ll swallow it quietly. Well, no. It is fucked up that we have no clarity. Are we getting cuts? Will the episodes be shortened? What are we waiting for exactly? Because VIU said a week delay, but the official post says they’re going to announce a “new airing schedule.” That doesn’t sound like a one-week delay. That sounds like weeks....maybe even longer.
It makes no sense. What do they think they’re achieving by pausing everything? Do they really believe that if they stop airing, Tian’s situation is going to magically improve? If anything, this is only making it worse. Now the blame is getting pinned on him even more because they will assume it's his fault that it got postponed which is just making it worst for him.
I just read the comments below. Sooo after binge watching 10 episodes in a single night, you're telling me there's…
Don't worry. Desire isn’t getting canceled, and neither is this. The Chinese government can’t control international releases, and while Revenged Love was banned domestically, that’s a separate case. People are just spreading rumors, but there's no international ban and there won't be one. At most, there might be a slight delay, maybe a week due to some issues with one of the actors. But that’s it. Everything else is just noise.
Didn't he say to Shuai they didn't go all the way?! 🤔 I'm confused 🤭 is it the subtitles?
In the novel, he fingered him, thats why he said they did not go all the way but they did try to from what i can remember, it did not work though because suowei was in pain and chi cheng softened LMAO
I want to know if they are even allowed to do more edit when it has already been distributed to the sites they…
It depends on the licensing agreement between the streaming platform and the original production company.
Episodes are often delivered one at a time so they don't necessarily have it all. ( I hope they do tho LMAO) But technically, yes the main company can still edit scenes out before the episode is sent to Viki or GagaOOLala.
Okay. Y'all are getting mad at everyone freaking out but this is the exact same thing that happened with untamed…
The way we’re all collectively traumatized LMFAO 😭
But yeah, honestly, I was getting kind of frustrated with everyone constantly commenting “it’s gonna get banned” before anything even happened but in today's case, I get it. I think it’s totally natural for people to freak out this time. They’ve gone completely silent, and the only "official" platform that gave us a statement deleted it right after, leaving everyone even more confused. It’s just a mess.
I still don't think there is any risk of a ban, the risk of re-editing might be there though which is probably the main thing that has everyone lose their minds.
Can I play the devil's advocate for a bit?I think JCD should have been prepared about this, given her history…
Not to be a bitch, but they seriously need to reconsider their strategies because this is only going to make people bully him more 😭😭😭 The Ziyu solo stans are already blaming him, saying the show’s delayed because of him like?? I hate those solo stans, bro, someone yeet them into space. This is just making everything worse. People are already unsettled and on edge, and this kind of silence and delay is only pushing everyone further over the edge.
But yeah... if this really is just a break to let things “calm down” (even though I highly doubt this is the right way to go about it), then fine I'll accept that. But if it turns into an excuse to re-edit things and strip stuff out?? I swear I will actually knock myself out and then hack gaga and viki both 😭

"I feel bad for TXN, he is been through a lot lately, hence why I believe that they should not give more ground to these crazies to run wild and instead keep going with the adaption as they filmed it already."
That’s exactly what’s confusing me though....TXN has been trending non-stop with people spiraling over every little thing, and if they’re delaying this show to let things “cool down,” I’m really not sure that’s the best approach. Isn’t that just going to make people even more restless and cause it to trend more? It doesn’t feel like cooling things down at all..it feels like they’re pouring gasoline on the fire. And let’s be real, those intense fans don’t have the patience we do… they’re going to go wild on Weibo.
for me, the worst part of all this is the uncertainty. i need them to just be transparent and prompt. if the drama…
I relate so hard... totally get why people are losing their minds right now. The silence is honestly unbearable, and it's driving everyone up the wall. If they actually make a statement tomorrow about the delay, I need them to explain why. I’m begging at this point. I just want to know if I’m waiting around for a chopped-up version or the real thing 😭💀
Do you have a link confirming it’s actually postponed for a week? I don’t really trust what people say online…
Well..there are actually several platforms it’s being distributed on, Viu Thailand is airing it, and it’s also available on GagaOOLala and even Viki! But the official one, where everything is shared firsthand, is on YouTube under the channel "Revenged Love". They also have an Instagram and a X (Twitter) account, both under the name "Revenged Love". That’s the main thing for everything related to the show, if you ever want to follow along directly. 💕

I’m not too familiar with this author but I completely agree with you, by now I feel like she must understand how everything works behind the scenes. I also saw people mention she posted a video promising it would air safely and then deleted it, which only adds to the confusion. The way this has all been handled feels so messy, and with Viu releasing a statement before the team itself, it's no wonder people are feeling anxious and unsure of what to believe.
As for the episode release, I remember she once said she wanted to drop the first 9 episodes all at once but couldn't make it happen, so I imagine trying to release 24 in one go would be even harder.
And honestly, I feel the same way about editing. I don’t have the patience to sit through something that’s been cut to pieces. I’ll say it plainly. I like seeing intimacy in my shows. It doesn’t have to be graphic or over the top, but if a story is meant to show love between two people, then let it show. If those scenes were filmed with care, I want them left in. Otherwise, what’s the point of calling it uncensored? The actors put so much into their work, it would be such a disservice to them.
I just really hope that if we do get a statement tomorrow, it doesn’t just talk about delays. I think we all deserve some clarity and, more importantly, a real reassurance that the final product won’t be stripped of the love it was supposed to have.
Maybe it won't get delayed. Was there an official statement? I hope it's just a rumour. And I can wait a week…
the statement came from viu, but the official channel has been awfully silent for two days now 😭 maybe they’ll finally speak up tomorrow… i really, really hope all of this is wrong
Do you have a link confirming it’s actually postponed for a week? I don’t really trust what people say online…
Viu did post an official announcement but then they took it down 😭 however!! a few hours later they replied to someone saying the announcement is still valid and they’ll repost it later, i’m guessing because the official channel is supposed to post it first.
also… the official YouTube page removed their 3 upcoming videos, and Gaga took them down too. i’m thinking they’re waiting to give us a proper update tomorrow, but god i really hope this is all just some big misunderstanding because i seriously do not wanna wait 😩
guys please listen 😭 the show is NOT getting banned. I know everything feels scary right now but it’s just getting postponed and it’s only for one week.
are they making cuts? Could be… probably. do i love that? no. i hate it. i’m literally holding onto the ceiling by my fingertips.
but they’re doing it to protect the show and the cast. every decision is made to keep things safe and make sure we actually get to see it air. there is no ban, just a delay. a horrible, soul-crushing delay. but still... a delay LMAO.

This is not how you treat your audience.
