Even if they don't have any intimate scenes, or any kissing it's still quite inappropriate. They couldn't have…
The male lead signed few months before the female lead was selected. So the male lead didn't know who's gonna be the fl in the future. So there's no option for selecting someone around her age. Investors aren't dumb enough to invest in dramas with newbies who never played main leads before.
There were multiple candidates for the female lead position in the beginning. The agency of this FL was strong enough to get this role for her. Btw she has been acting for 10 years and she already acted in romance based roles since she was 13. So she had enough experience. It's too late for you to react as she will soon become 18.
The main theme of this drama isn't about love. It's more about loving the country. It's a drama which will prioritize chosing country over love. That's why the team got investors like China Film Group, New Media Shares. They don't invest in making romance dramas. So you don't have to worry about her playing a role where romance in minimum. She herself gave consent and it's a good opportunity for her as an actress.
There's another drama REBIRTH that will air soon with similar case and similar age gap. There's small amount of romance but the priority isn't romance.
The script doesn't have any kissing scene be it fake or real. They didn't film one based on the offline reuters.
She has been acting for 10 years. She played romantic roles since age 13. It's ridiculous to see people complaining now after so many years of being silent when she's almost 18. If you bring law, it is permitted to act in such roles from age 14 in china as long as there's no intimate scenes. There's law for protecting the underage actors. Kttph passed the censorship means they didn't break any law.
Personally, I don’t think she will turn into a mature woman overnight at her 18th birthday while being a child at 17. I am more comfortable to watch her in this drama where the romance is little than to watch her kiss scenes that she might start filming at age 18. Like the drama of Deng Enxi and Ding Yuxi. She filmed at 18 and had kissing scenes. I was uncomfortable and skipped that although she was officially an adult. Her mentality didn't grow overnight to me. I love her and will watch her future dramas without making a space where others can throw shade at her.
P.S: I answered OP in that way because I read her past comments. She also directly called us pervert for supporting their hard work. So you need to know the context before jumping into conclusions.

You’re twisting something as normal as romance into something disgusting. If you really believe that, then every romantic drama should be a problem to you. Actors aren’t real couples, so by your logic, every single intimate or emotional scene between “strangers” should be condemned. But you don’t say that, do you? You pick and choose.
And where was all this outrage when Aimi started doing romance roles at 13? I was watching her dramas back then, and people like you were completely silent. No moral lectures, no outrage, nothing. Now suddenly you’ve found your voice? Why now when she will turn 18 soon? Unfortunately she doesn't need you anymore as you will soon see her in more dramas and she will also have kissing scenes once she turn 18 within a few months.
So it’s a “crime” at 17, but magically acceptable at 18? She doesn’t become a completely different person overnight. The only thing that changes is the number, yet your entire moral stance flips with it. That’s not principles..that’s hypocrisy! It’s despicable to me to see people like you morally outraged now, only to turn around and consume the same content(or more intimate ones) the moment it fits your comfort zone. That kind of selective morality is exactly the problem. You keep lurking on this page even though you vowed not to watch it. Atp I am finding your behavior is exactly in the same category as cyberbullying. If you wanted to get it straight, you should stop consuming concents from the platforms who are involving in this by boycotting iqiyi, youku and tencent. Instead you are bullying the actors and is provoking others to do the same in a platform(mdl) where you can only achieve this outcome. Ask yourself who is the real despicable one.
Hou Minghao signed the contract first without knowing who his co-star would be; by the time he found out that…
A nobody? You don't care as long as they are nobodies huh?.. If your concern is about their star power it yucks me even more hearing lecture from you about your concern for minor issues valid for this drama only. Did you enjoy Kim So Hyun & Kim Yoon Jung's early works? There's countless of fake rumors. LXY was never cast along with Amy. It was a fake rumors. The Female lead was another actress. So LXY didn't do any noble act like you said. It's crazy how you r acting as Minghao's fan while putting him on a moral ground. As his fan how come you have zero idea about what happened during the casting? Shame on you for acting his fan while pushing hatred towards him. You sound like a better actress.
Every freaking fan knows he signed first. HE DIDN'T KNOW ABOUT HIS CO STAR BEING A MINOR AS HE SIGNED 2/3 MONTHS BEFORE THE FL WAS SELECTED! Keep enjoying other shows with minors and please don't introduce yourself as a fan.

That was on your watch list and I thought you enjoyed that. They had their own arc in that show which showed love, marriage everything. All the couples were the main couple as it was an ensemble drama with everyone as first billing. So they were main couple portraying romance. I only find others hypocrite who enjoys those dramas and come bashing this drama even before it aired. It just yucks me.
Do you think NRTA will approve or issues a airing license for this drama if both of them have a kissing scene…
You have a problematic way to see the situation. Amy previously had romantic interest in dramas. None of her co stars' career got ruined because of it. HYTT acted with Winwin in Perfect Match; she was 16 and Winwin was 26. They never got any negative feedback but loved by the audience who are still hoping for their 2nd collaboration. Every child actress in china tries to take lead roles at age 16-17. Check the early works of famous actress Liu Yu Fei. It's the same in kdrama industry. Countless of kdrama had Female lead with age 17 or less (example: Kim So Hyun, Kim Yoon Jung). They even had kissing scenes before 18. At least in chinese drama there's no inappropriate scene before age 18. It's concerning when the specific hatred is only towards this drama where the romance might not be the main attraction. It sounds deliberate or the people complaining sounds hypocritical who was silently enjoying the other dramas all along.

Hong Ye was last seen in the VLinkage chart in last 19th March..
Vlinkage character chart indicates the popular characters in china. It's impressive how Hongye kept his position for so long. Viewers loved Hongye ♥️
