Saw posts about March. I’ll be a sucker and believe it this time😁
Yeah, I also saw that on X last night, but the video on their YouTube (Netflix Thailand) suddenly went private. For now, let’s see if there’s any movement from Youku soon.
I’ll keep my expectations low for now 😅 I still can’t get over how last year Youku started releasing materials but then suddenly changed their mind. Hopefully, Hidden Shadow will finally air this year.
