Who on earth changed the region of this show to Hong Kong? Another know-it-all idiot. I’m really fed up.
First, this series was filmed in Zhanjiang, Guangdong—not Hong Kong. All the Cantonese dubbing and traditional Chinese characters were added in post-production, just to recreate a Hong Kong setting. The actors originally spoke Mandarin, which is why the lip-sync is off.
Nearly all the cast and crew are from mainland China. The director is Gong Yushi, director of Revenged Love, using a pseudonym. This is a 100% mainland Chinese production. They only used a Hong Kong distribution company to avoid censorship.
And now some fools are stupidly taking it as a Hong Kong drama. Can you stop editing the info like you know everything? It’s just disgusting.
technically (and only technically) this is not a Chinese BL , it's produced by Singaporean company. it's also…
VPN is pretty common. Of course, many people don’t know how to use it or even haven’t heard of it—it all depends on whether they’re interested in foreign websites.

Yes, that's pretty much what I mean. What I'm trying to say is that BL dramas can be filmed in the Chinese mainland, but they cannot be officially and legally released there. Chinese viewers can only watch pirated versions on unlicensed platforms, or use a VPN to access the official content.

I am Chinese. I can tell you that this drama was filmed in Mainland China, and the shooting location is Pingtan, Fujian. The production company is also a mainland Chinese company. However, relevant Chinese regulations only apply to Mainland China and mainland Chinese companies (such as WeTV, iQIYI, Youku, etc.). The producer of this drama has sold the streaming rights to platforms including Gagaoolala and GTV in Taiwan, China, so it is not under the jurisdiction of the National Radio and Television Administration (NRTA).

Kind of an embarrassment to the original Addicted series.This has the feel of a mid-to-lame Thai BL, from the…
This show shares the same director as Secrets Happened on the Litchi Island. Its producers are Lin Fengsong and Chen Wen themselves, and it has nothing to do with Chai Jidan, the author of Addicted . The production budget is extremely low—no big capital backing, it’s basically a micro-budget project among low-budget works. So you can’t really expect it to be well-made.
Again, the production is weak, and at times I don’t even know what’s happening. It’s been ten years, yet…

except i think this production is using different names for copyright reasons
In Addicted, the character is Yang Meng (杨猛), and in this work, it’s Yang Meng (阳蒙)—the pronunciation is identical, but the Chinese characters are completely different.
I came here because I saw the 2CP leads of addicted and they have matured and I was looking forward to it until…
Rest assured, everyone. This drama only seems to be suspiciously riding on the coattails of Chai Jidan’s Addicted when it comes to the two leads’ names and the show’s English title. In fact, the storyline is a complete rewrite and has no connection to Chai Jidan whatsoever. What’s more, the Chinese characters for the leads’ names only sound similar to those in Addicted—they are actually entirely different characters. Generally speaking, CJD won’t stand a chance in a lawsuit over this.
I find it really strange that they went ahead and made a whole series, even getting as far as securing the broadcasting…

It's baffling that this show has been inexplicably labeled as a "Taiwanese drama" on MDL. That's ridiculous! Admittedly, some scenes of this drama were shot in Taiwan, and the original director is from Taiwan. However, the director was later replaced by Nong Jian, the original author, and most of the filming took place in Shanghai. Looking at the end credits, there isn't a single person from Taiwan in the current production team and staff. A method to avoid censorship has turned into an excuse to erase the contributions of mainland China. At most, it should be considered a co-production with China as the main body and Taiwan involved.
The new episode is out. I told you earlier—there’s no censorship or cuts at all; in fact, there’s a lot of exciting new content added. All those people who borrowed trouble by getting anxious in advance and talking about Chinese censorship can shut up now.
The quality of this series declined due to the obvious tightening of censorship.
Additionally, you know nothing about China's censorship system. You said that the tenth episode was censored, but the fact is that if it had been censored by China, there wouldn't even be a kiss scene. The tenth episode was only a move to reduce its popularity due to the BTS leak, and it has nothing to do with China's censorship.
It’s now confirmed, haha! But it will start airing tomorrow, one episode per day, no episodes on Sundays, with a total of 4 episodes.Additionally, you know nothing about China's censorship system.
