Because I trust what the actual creator of the show is saying? If that makes me naive, fine. Honestly, aren't you tired of spreading negativity? How much reassurance do we need?
I'll tell you what. If by next monday, we haven't received an episode yet, I'll panic with you. But for now I have hope because I have no reason not to.
So they didn't postpone it to tone down the homoeroticism (or god forbid cancel it) but to actually edit the scenes to be more satisfying to fans? To "enhance the viewing experience" which is literally what they said to begin with?
So good things still happen to simple folks with pure hearts?
I think even the actors might not want the rest of the episodes to be released if the drama is blacklisted in…
@ib I completely get where you're coming from but:
1) "If the drama is blacklisted in China." I thought it was that from the beginning? All of the cast and crew went into it knowing it wouldn't be broadcast in China, no?
2) Even if the cast wouldn't want the show to continue (which would be extremely sad), I don't see how it would be up to them? "They don't want to take the risk" ... but they already took the risk by getting into the project...
I understand that some of the cast have been dealing with some really crazy stalker fans which is obviously upsetting. I suppose maybe it's possible to cancel the show if somebody's safety is in jeopardy but I've never heard about that happening before.
I'm totally new to Chinese drama, so I don't really know what I'm talking about, though. Just trying to keep a positive outlook.
Remember last week when people had the audacity to complain about a kissing scene being edited weird... Those "problems" were a luxury compared to what we're facing now ðŸ˜
I have a feeling it won’t come out until next year, there’s literally zero promotion ;(
Guys this is netflix... It's completely normal for Netflix to not promote their stuff until like the last minute. If we're lucky we'll get something in late July (if the late August release is true), otherwise maybe a couple of weeks before.
Is this show actually filmed in China? I'm so fascinated by how a show is produced in the same country that bans it from airing in said country. I'm very new and clueless to this phenomena so can anyone explain a bit about how it works?
And like, what is done to protect the actors and crew? It must be such a vulnerable position to be known in your country for something that's technically illegal to even broadcast,
By the first couple of episodes I was like, this is fine I guess? Seems fun and lighthearted.
Cut to now, I am literally thinking about this show every single hour I'm awake lol. Will probably start dreaming about it, too. I'm surprised by how addicting it has turned out to be.
Some new infos:Several sites now list August 28th as the release date!Apparently a large part of the series was…
@streetzero Thank you for this new info! I was hoping for an early August release but I still appreciate knowing. Now, with it being Netflix, we'll probably get the trailer in September.

(to anyone who might have read it)
At around what chapter does Xiao Shuai and Cheng Yu get together? I'm curious about how far into the story it happens.
Oh well, I'll just k-word myself then...
I really want to stay positive and not panic but let me say I have never known fear in my heart like this.
And like, what is done to protect the actors and crew? It must be such a vulnerable position to be known in your country for something that's technically illegal to even broadcast,
Time to wait 74 years for the next episode that will feel like it goes by in 5 minutes...
"I actually really like you..."
It almost felt like he was saying it more to himself, in realization. That moment holds so much significance.
Also, Chi Cheng not even giving Yue Yue the time of day after she betrayed him and just sending his assistant to break up with her is so sexy of him.
