We can’t really blame them, most, if not all, Chinese BL productions have always worked with low budgets. As…
Of course I definitely agree that even one season of good content is better than none. I just don’t want to fall too deep until I know I’ll get a complete story. Incomplete endings and the crazy long waits to no avail is really too much to handle. I too had a crazy whiplash from Addicted all those years ago 😭
I really wanted to love this more than I actually did but couldnt. The story is good and the actors and their chemistry even better but i think because I knew the story was gonna be chopped and left severely incomplete by the end, so I just didn't let myself fall in love with them too much. CBLs have left us hanging way too often and honestly that lack of closure for months hurts.
Even now s2 is not confirmed and even if and when it is, there is no guarantee until it actually airs and dunno how long that will take.
I dont mind shows being split into seasons but I liked it the way We Best Love did it. They planned it from the beginning and s1 ended with a release date for s2 which was just 2 months later!
That being said their finale kiss was really satisfying and so full of love and longing.❤️Really hope to see a s2 and let myself fall in love deeper but until then I'm gonna protect my heart 😮💨
Wow the trailer did not hold back and I’m here for it 😍🤭 I thought the OG Lu feng was too much in the movie but the drama version is really going all out!
Can’t wait for a release date and hoping for 2 episodes a week 🤞
The Youtube channel that posts their reactions, shows only 5 videos in the reaction playlist whereas there are 8 listed (rest are "unavailable"). Where's everybody watching it from, so that they are able to see the full list and no videos are flagged unavailable? I looooove watching reactions so I really wanna check everything thats out there :D
There's currently intense scrutiny directed at the current active CBL couples and it seems Yunqi and Yiran are…
I honestly thought this wouldn’t be a big problem anymore since so many production companies have found a way to maneuver around the Chinese policies but oh well🥲 Now I too feel a little doubtful about the specials but I don’t want them at the expense of someone’s career so I guess let’s hope for the best!
No, you’re not the only one, I do the exact same thing 😅I check every day here and on social media in general…
The only thing that gives me hope is that they did finish filming and their concert promotions have been in full swing so there shouldn’t be any issues but they seriously talk about anything and everything BUT the special like why 🥲 I hope I can just forget about it and one day just wake up to its release 😂
Am I crazy to check this page everyday for any news about the special episode or they’re seriously being so weird about it by not posting ANY updates for the past 2 months, like none!? 😭😭😭
Randomly came back to this page to see some info and thought to scroll down and see whether that person is still doing the day xxx of missing them and lo and behold they still are! Hats off to your dedication babe 🫶
I have never waited for a special this badly before <3<3<3
In other people's experiences, is a series concert the last of its promotions? So can we expect the special before their concert on Feb 28 or thats not usually the case and the special could easily come post their concert weekend as well?
There are some pretty polarizing views on this show so far, so I wanted to share my honest impression as well. This isn’t to invalidate anyone’s preferences at all—it’s just a fun little analysis from my side :)
When the trailer dropped, I was beyond excited that the Addicted second CP was getting a spin-off and that they somehow got the OG cast back. I’d already seen Lin Feng Song in a bunch of short dramas and really liked him in them so that was a plus!
That being said, the show itself isn’t really making me feel much in terms of chemistry, connection, warmth, or even the storyline. It’s not a budget issue or an acting issue—the leads are great. For me, the problem is more with the writing and directing. There isn’t a strong emotional arc, and I don’t really feel the inner worlds of You Qi and Yang Meng enough to connect with what they’re feeling.
I honestly don’t know what either of them feels for the other. There’s no clear emotional baseline from the high school days—like yes, YM liked YQ, but what did YQ feel? Was YM just a friend? Did he not notice him that way, or did he like him even a little? And what does YQ feel now? Why was he so happy to see him again on that island? We don’t get enough emotional POVs, so it feels very outside-looking-in, which is why a lot of moments don’t really land.
Some scenes here and there do work and are kinda funny but still YQ’s actions toward YM feel unanchored and confusing. I wouldn’t overthink this if it were episode 1, but we’re already a third of the way through so it feels valid enough to form an opinion so far.
And that second CP… girl, what? lol. I don’t really feel anything from them yet, though the hint at the end of episode 4 that they might’ve known each other before did get me slightly interested.
Overall, the leads and their characters are very likable, the acting is good, and the location and look of the show are nice. For me, it’s the emotional buildup and the way the story is written and directed where the connection is lacking. I’ll still wait for this weekend’s episodes and hope the next few connect better with me :)
Hey guys! Haven't been on this page in a while but I was just wondering did we ever get an update on that last post by RL on youtube where they talked about releasing some new stuff, fan events etc? Like did anyone find any crumbs on any other platform talking about it or hinting at something?
