So to summarize the issues around the fansubs below -- I've been very confused over the situation, and hope it's…
To add to your 2 point, before the copyright infringement notice there was a case of stolen eps which made the person stop uploading and private all previous videos, so noone wants a repeat of that.
I'm confused about your last sentence in 3... Eps 1-8 are still available on youku with good subs and I'd encourage everyone to watch those because wowow eps have cut scenes. I agree that good subs are a must, so much of the story unfolds in conversations you'd be missing out.
I'd go with option 1 while hoping for option 2:) I'm watching with Chn subs but I've seen eng fansubs from 3 different sources and they were all decent.
Guys, do you think they will release all the remaining eps or 2 this week and the last one for the next? Or 1…
On wowow site it says 28&29 on 13th, 30 on 20th. I'm in full delulu mode hoping for a longer finale - an hour or hour and a half - anyone can dream, right?:D
Li Shande: “Do we have ‘bing’ in Lingnan? He thinks: ‘ice’ Zhao thinks: ‘soldiers’ My tone-deaf self thinks: yep you're all mental;)
Some of the comedy feels forced but I love the gallows humour<3 Li Shande’s earnestness is both touching and hilarious - it serves as his armour and ultimate weapon lol
No one has ever given me a satisfying answer as to why the government would ban a bromance show but not a BL novel.…
Despises it so much that ent. companies have been buying out rights to danmei novels in bulk?? They obviously love this cash cow, they just can't use it.

But isn't this like comparing apples and oranges? What's the reach of online novels and what's the reach of mainstream entertainment shows? The second one obviously faces more scrutiny. Besides, novels also get banned. That's why everyone writes under pseudonym and censors their content.

https://mydramalist.com/50145-the-light-in-the-night It's good! Modern, thriller, crime, psychological - not sure if that's your cup of tea. However, it's a bit of a messy situation - it's region blocked and only has Japanese subs, so to watch it you need to go scavenger hunting for fansubbed eps, but since the network issued a copyright infringement warning, everyone went into hiding;) We're hoping that after it finishes in two weeks another network will pick it up and re-air with eng subs.
Aww it's like my old job with boss coming up with half-baked ideas and everyone trying to push it on whoever's not at work that day:D I would've fainted too. I already like Li Shande. He's the type of character that's easy to root for, especially in that sea of schemers. Great start!

Lol now I can see it's the character’s name at the top. I think the colours blinded me before;) It's even more ridiculous, it definitely should be changed back. I recently tried replacing an old poster for a drama that was banned in China and now airs in Japan, with one that was officially released by the new network but was rejected with a long litany of guidelines. But a character poster with the name of the drama cut off at the bottom is OK?🙃
Maybe we should ask a Mandarin speaker what is written around the ML figure.In first three eps I've seen, there…
Sounds very encouraging:) I already watch two emotionally demanding dramas, so I'm in the mood for something lighter. I had high hopes for Thirteen Hongs but I guess it's shelved for good.
I've just red episode30 script and it's amazing ,, I really hope they show us everything in that script
I'm bracing myself cause c-dramas have an awful track record of incomplete, illogical or emotionally unsatisfying endings - but since this doesn't air in China, maybe we'll get lucky 🤞🤞🤞
COME ON VIKI.....DON'T LET ME DOWN! PLEASE PICK THIS SERIES UP!
Maybe wowow got exclusive rights and we have to wait for it to finish airing... I really hope this gets a proper international release. It'd be fun to rewatch it with more people.
