Sadly, they did not obtain the distribution license or license to be broadcast. The license is necessary before the series can be broadcast. Despite this series being a bromance, If you know about censorship in China, that’s the reason, this series is a censored adaptation of a same-sex original work.

Yeah, I hope too that this series will have great success soon., just like the parent story. Youku Network is good at producing series, alongside three other networks. When it comes to genres, and especially when the genre tags include 'life,' 'youth,' and 'drama,' Those genres tell us that Youku wants us to cry😂, and I’m a bit excited for the release of this series.

If you want to read the web novel, it has a total of 85 chapters with 4 extra chapters.

Additionally, if you scroll down to the comments section, you can see my comments about why BJT is fit for the role.

Bai Jingting was a great choice for the role in The First Frost because the character demands someone who can handle deep emotions and melodrama. His ability to express emotions and deliver in intense scenes really made him the perfect fit.

Let me explain, It's not Victor Ma because Hidden Love's Sang Yan is from Sang Zhi's point of view, while First Frost's Sang Yan is from Wen Yifan's point of view. If you read the novels, you'll understand! Also, even if the stories are connected, Sang Yan's personality and appearance are very different. REMEMBER First Frost is a sequel or spin-off, not a Season 2 of Hidden Love (THAT'S WHY DIFFERENT CAST); it tells a different story. First Frost focuses on the male and female leads' points of view. but don't expect Sang Yan from Hidden Love to be the same in First Frost. First Frost expands the perspectives of both leads.

Whether a sequel drama keeps the same cast or brings in new actors depends on the storyline and creative vision. If the sequel is a direct continuation of the original story, like a Season 2, it's more common to keep the same cast. However, if the sequel is more of a spin-off or focuses on different aspects of the story (like new characters or a different time period), a new cat might be chosen to better fit the new direction.

In some cases, even if it's not a direct sequel, the production team might change the cast to offer a fresh perspective or to align with a different creative approach. But it's all about what best serves the story they're trying to tell!

I suggest regularly checking the iQIYI Mainland China website for the 'Coming Soon' section or anything related to upcoming releases. The main website is updating regularly with upcoming releases.

I recommend using a VPN when accessing the Mainland China website of iQIYI to see many upcoming series. You can still access the Mainland China website without a VPN, but there will be limited access or restrictions.

Meanwhile, the rating on Tencent Video in Mainland China is 9.0 (870,000 reviews).

What do you mean it's not on Netflix? you mean it hasn't aired yet, or is it about a licensing agreement (distribution rights)?

About Broadcast information, We all know that in Chinese entertainment, it is not possible to broadcast a drama immediately after it is filmed. The drama must go through a review process and obtain a distribution license before it can be broadcast.

About Licensing Agreement, In either case, the series would still need to pass regulatory approval in China and obtain a distribution license before Netflix could acquire it, especially if it's a Chinese production. Once it passes these steps, Netflix could then negotiate with Youku for international streaming rights.
