They're banning Rich Ceo and Poor Girl in China so we thankfully we'll never have to see that trope again.
Unless you have access to the original NRTA statute (assuming you even know Chinese), you should take what you see on Western social media about the Chinese entertainment industry with a heavy grain of salt.
I know you're stating what you're seeing. But what you're seeing isn't necessarily true. That's my point.
Who were the 30+ MDL users that collectively rated this C-drama only a 7.8 yesterday (on the 1st day of its release) & WHY?
Here are some possibilities:
1) They are bad people. 2) They have bad taste. 3) They have dyscalculia. 4) They hate CY. 5) They are time-travelers & have seen the ending (in their timeline).
This is not an exhaustive list, by any means. Feel free to add to it if you have additional ideas.

Ditto.
Ok, what's the exact word that the NRTA used in Chinese?
And how would you know that a ban has been basically implied, especially if you don't even know the original Chinese word that's being used?

From what I understand, the NRTA is regulating materialistic displays by CEO's (in short dramas only).
Admittedly, this is just hearsay, so maybe someone more privy to the situation wishes to share.
For people who love vanilla, probably yes. For people who love chocolate or strawberry, maybe not.
You won't know unless you try & see for yourself.
They watch dramas that honestly annoy them & tell random strangers about it.
Who's saying SWL is the "best actor in the world?" Who's even saying he's the best actor in China?
Your argument is embarrassing. Try improving it.
I don't know why it's so hard for some MDL trolls to learn how to read.
Not to mention, ratings often say more about the raters than the dramas themselves.
Among other things, it's hard to take seriously a rating system that allows its users to rank episodes prior to their release.
And don't get me started on the blatant pro-kdrama & anti-cdrama biases.
For some reason, they all came back to rate the drama around the same time. So the drop makes perfect sense.
Here are some possibilities:
1) They are bad people.
2) They have bad taste.
3) They have dyscalculia.
4) They hate CY.
5) They are time-travelers & have seen the ending (in their timeline).

It's interesting how MDL & its ratings work. Its institutional biases are interesting, too.
