Original article doesn't mention this, seems like a fan panic spreading/engagement farming post.
I found a reddit post referencing a weibo post, stressing that so far there seems to be no official announcement from NRTA, just this leak/rumour, and the original leak/rumour does NOT mention anything about danmei or danmei actors. I'll put the link in a reply to my comment in case mdl doesn't like hyperlinks and deletes the comment.
Finally finished - I kept up till ep16 or so, put it on hold, and now finished just for the sake of finishing…
Just a correction: it's not *China* that's producing uncensored BL, it's individuals from China who are doing it, and they still can't air them within China. They've just figured out a workaround to sell them directly to non-Chinese platforms. China still has a ban on both censored (dangai) and uncensored BL (danmei).
Someone told me it doesn't mention BL specifically, I can't read Chinese so I am really eager to know,plus does…
It does mention 耽美 dānměi, which is Chinese for BL. (Censored, bromancified BL like TU and WoH are called "dangai", which was not mentioned.) Let's just hope that this is an unfounded rumour.
As for the platforms, China has no power over platforms that aren't Chinese, like Gaga (Taiwan) and Viki (USA), so I assume it's just the international versions of WeTV, iQiyi and Youku they're referring to. But I guess it's not impossible that they could put a ban on Chinese productions selling their uncensored works to foreign platforms. And both WeTV and iQiyi have coproduced BL dramas from other countries, so I'm wondering what this would mean for them, if it's true and not a hoax.
I love every second of this fantastic series and have already begun to rewatch it from the beginning. Like many…
Something something social harmony above all else something something... Unfortunately I think the unhinged behaviours of Chinese danmei fans and netizens when it comes to BL is not helping 😢
Started watching this series. Watched the first episode (comedy is good,enjoyable so far) I get that the ML will…
If you're looking for paragons of virtue and models of positive behaviour, you'll be hard pressed to find any in this series. Everyone is messed up in one way or another. Just be aware that there's a huge character development over the course of the series, and the dark introductions to some of the characters are supposed to form the basis for that. But if you still dislike the characters by episode 5, then this series probably isn't for you.
If China cannot do it, then I really hope South Korea steps up and produces a full 16 episode BL drama with the…
Unfortunately South Korea is still too traditional and conservative. The reason why their BL dramas are often so short and low budget is because none of the big sponsors want anything to do with BL. And that's also somewhat the problem in China. Yes, their wuxia and historical dramas have a grandeur and epicness that few other countries can match, but a true, uncensored historical/wuxia BL probably wouldn't get the same budget. Just look at "Meet You At the Blossom".
