In most European countries and not only all TV must know how popular are their show or series and hence there is a rating audience is a sort of measurement by installing special device in selected family all over the country. Everything that goes below 15 is cut hence some show or series disappeared because poor audience given the wide range of concurrence at prime time particularly. The rating of Addicted was particularly high and was quite a surprise not for the concurrent program but because Italian are familiar with dubbed movies or series was subtitled only attracting of course not a large audience but rather a niche one. Hope i have been clear if not let me know

@charlie10This is correct in Bangkok you can find at 999 Bath the DVD with 4 hours of additional frames or behind the scenes it is mainly sold by B2S stores. While in Spain, Portugal and Italy has been aired on TV totally uncut (private national TV) no idea about where and who and how rights have been paid or authorized. In Italy the share was of about 32-38 reaching 42 at the last episode.

My Soompi family, let me present you the third post of YuZhou - Wardrobe of Love. If you have missed the other posts, here Part 1, Part 2. As always, all pics credit to the rightful owners. I only combined them together to avoid adding too many photos.
Some rambling before I start. From my first post, I didn’t think it would last until the third post. Why? Because it has been 146 days since YZ public separation, they didn’t have any public events or photoshoots together and they are not under the same company as well so.... However, oh dear! Just look at the length of this post and you will know what I mean
Ok, let’s start!
Let's look at some old pieces that have been recycled by YZ.
I want to start with this LV top. I mentioned about this top in part 1. This is quite overwhelming so please bear with me
. JY wore this first back on 14/06 during his photoshoot for OK! x HJY x Olay ad. ZZ wore it during his livestream photoshoot for L’Officiel on 29/06. Then, ZZ wore it again for his OK! Thailand Magazine photoshoot on 28/07. The first 2 photoshoots were back in June. JY’s Olay clip was released not long after that. I’ve been keeping an eye for ZZ L’Officiel photoshoot photos. They released one or two photos from this shoot around the first week of August but not with this top. I thought because this top was spotted quickly by CPF that JY wore it not long ago so they decided not to release this photo.
Then tada, the boys’ photos with this top were included in all three magazines (Life Style Magazine, L’Officiel Magazine and OK! Thailand Magazine) for September issue. Either the boys have planned it so damn good or its just simply FATE!
The second recycled item is this J or I love you shirt from D&G (it doesn’t matter whether it’s J or I anymore after yesterday I guess). ZZ wore this for his L’Officiel photoshoot 29/06. Yesterday, JY wore it for BAZAAR event 09/09. ZZ also wore another J Love You top from D&G, same collection on 30/07 for his concert in Thailand. Delulu: ZZ “J, love you” ZZ “I love you” JY “Yes, I love you too” Case closed
The third item is this Jimmy Choo shoes. ZZ wore it first for YoungChic Magazine photoshoot back on 15/03. Then JY used it for Esquire Photoshoot - July? Issue. ZZ used it again for his concert in Thailand on 30/07 and 31/07 to the airport. Actually, this is not the only Jimmy Choo shoe that YZ wore.
Forth item, Emporio Armani *blush* (refer to part 2) ZZ pic - 21/07 @ airport SH - BJ
Last item in this category is “JOHNNY” couple phone case (refer to part 2), JY was first spotted using this around 16/07 and he is still using it right now. Pic in spoiler, JY at BAZAAR Gala Dinner last night 09/09. Today he was still using it at Beijing Airport.
Since we are talking about accessories, lets talk about these infamous BVLGARI rings. JY bought this ring and I remember after that, we were all looking at ZZ’s fingers everytime he made his appearance lol. Anyway, we saw what we were looking for on 13/08 ZZ’s ShangHai concert. He didn’t wear the exact same ring but you know BVLGARI ring is pretty famous in this fandom and I am damn sure that ZZ knows it. So by wearing this ring (and necklace pedant) for his last concert, it is really something
A few more couple accessories (from whale and monkey)
Now let’s move on to brands. Once JY likes a brand, he will keep using that brand over and over again. Interesting thing is, ZZ will start using that brand later on (ZZ never uses these brands before, you want to know who is YZ’s stylist? refer to part 1).
First brand, D&G of course. How many times we have seen JY wearing a whole D&G outfit? Millions? JY went to D&G show so he’s sponsored? Ok let’s talk about ZZ only. The first D&G outfit ZZ wore - his first award and big stage (refer to part 2). Second one - J Love You outfit - Thailand Concert while singing that infamous song (refer to part 2). And the most recent one is ShangHai concert. He was wearing this outfit while singing MoonLight, Dust with "Da Hai x 3”, reading letter to fans with lots of someone says and a confession he’s no longer single. Hang on, one more. He wore this singing Simple Love!!!!
Oh my! I screamed that night. Side note: YZ wore this brand so much to the point where I can actually recognise their clothes. I guessed the suit JY wore for BAZAAR from D&G even before seeing this weibo post Next brand, DSquared2. JY obsessed with this brand. Please see spoiler and you will agree with me
For ZZ, he started wearing this brand for his Thailand Concert 30/7, then again for his ShangHai promotional filming (couple white shirt) and concert (jeans) 13/08.
Third brand is ACNE Studio. This one, ZZ actually used it first. ZZ wore this shoes for SHFM (20/02) then again for 音悦大来宾 interview 01/04. JY wore the white sneaker for his photoshoot in March. Then the pants was around 2/6, white shirt around 5/6 - both for DWS recording and black T-shirt for his recording (the show with the lip logo lol) on 4/7. ZZ used the white sneaker JY wore back in march on 07/09 for his NetEase livestream. Some only-fans claimed that they gave this to ZZ. Err I don’t believe only fans didn't know that JY wore this before and just accidentally bought the exact same one for ZZ months later? Well if its true, thank you for giving this to ZZ
Forth brand - Balmain. Again JY obsessed with this brand, especially their jeans (refer to part 1). Recently, ZZ had a photo shoot wearing this brand and another photoshoot in Thailand 29/07 wearing the white top from Balmain.
Fifth brand - Etro. Please refer to part 2. I’m going to drop in 2 more items from this brand since the last post
Sixth brand - Giuseppe Zanotti. Please refer to part 2. Just adding one more item from JY for this brand.
Next brand is HBA. IIRC JY wore this brand first. Then fan gave YZ these two as CP gifts? Interesting how JY chose to wear it during that painful TFM and ZZ wore it right the next day after that
Then Triendiano. ZZ actually wore lots of this brand during ShangYin days. Not long ago, JY was spotted wearing this brand again. Note: except for the school uniform, all ShangYin outfits were actors’ outfits - said by ZZ IIRC. If you refer part 1, you can see YZ do have a few couple outfits in ShangYin. In an interview back then, they did mention about going shopping together. Just wondering if they started having this idea of sharing wardrobe/couple outfits now because of SY?
Last one is not a brand but Designer Alexander T Zhao. JY attended her fashion show first even before the second ban. Then ZZ used her clothes for his album cover (who recommended her to you ah ZZ?
). And recently they were still using clothes from this designer.
Ok, now individual items. First is this Givenchy top. Refer to part 1. Quick summary, JY lost his luggage on 27/03 from BJ-ChangSa. His old manager posted in weibo for help. ZZ wore it for his first FanMeeting in Beijing 25/06. Back then I assumed that meant JY found his lugguage lol. Now I believe he actually found his lugguage. Our street style released JY’s photo wearing this top. Judging from his hair, this photoshoot might have been taken around March.
Next top, H&M. JY wore this the day ZZ attended H&M event (20/7). Either he bought it himself or his kitten gave it to him, wearing it on that day = his support to his kitten
JY wore it again the day he flew to Changsa (12/8). What surprised me most about this top. JY wore it during his photoshoot for his first movie Guns & Dramas. Aww how sweet. Side note: JY loves branded items so when he keeps using this H&M top, there must be a special meaning to him.
Now these two painted shoes. The first one JY wore in Walk Slowly MV (refer to part 2). The second one JY wore this when a fan spotted him in ShangHai near ZZ house (back then the shoes weren’t painted yet). Then the day JY flew Baotou for his filming, these 2 shoes were painted. The white one is a huge mess with all sort of colours. The black one is also colourful and has a few lines on it. We managed to see “watch ur mouth”, “one step closer”, “never give up?” and “I’m a good boy or 666”. ZZ gives the same answer everytime being asked what is his favourite colours, “RAINBOW”. ZZ also said somewhere about grafitti on shoes? (sorry I cant remember this part lol)
Red vs Blue. Before ZZ’s Thailand concert, 5ML posted YZ photo (ZZ red - JY blue) with lyrics from a song “love should be honest?”. ZZ did actually sang that song in Thai Concert (it’s not his song). Then ZZ wore this red reebok shoes when he was in ThaiLand. JY wore very similar blue one in the photo he posted in IG. JY livestream for BAZAAR event, he said he only had these colours to use (red and blue). Then ZZ was wearing a white shirt from Thom Browne with red and blue dogs (note: JY updated IG with a cat asking “Wanna stay with me?”. Delulu: ZZ “Of course Big Fool!”)
This LV top. We all know that there are way too many coincidences happen in this fandom to the point that it feels unreal. For example ZZ’s friend posted a photo of 3 cats with one cat thinking/dreaming of a whale years before Shangyin. This, it may look funny how desperate CPF is but seriously, how the….Now I just simply accept these coincidences by one word “Fate”
Since we talk about LV. I have been thinking about this since I know the purple top (first one in this post) is from LV. JY wore it first and up to that point, YZ have never used this brand. Suddenly, all of ZZ’s airport outfits are from LV. Sponsored? Yes I think so. Then JY posted the LV lugguage on his weibo (among with other C-celebrities). We assumed that theres must be a promotional campaign going on (even though JY doesn’t have any other LV clothes that I know of). I was thinking ZZ would post one like that too since LV sponsored all his airport outfits. ZZ did post but few weeks? later. It gave me a feeling that YZ avoided posting it around the same time.
Then someone told me that LV wanted to sponsor both YZ but because of the bans so they could only choose one. If thats true, I think YZ decided that ZZ took this offer since ZZ was going to travel a lot for his concerts. We have discussed many times before how YZ never outshine each other. When ZZ released his album, JY focused on his modelling with all the fashion shows. Then after all ZZ’s concerts ended, JY announced all his projects (movie, photobook, fanmeeting). This is how they support each other. So I assume for sponsors and projects, YZ do discuss who should take/do what and when as well. It’s working pretty well though since we CPF have never had to pick only one of them to support. Kudos YuZhou
Tada, I think I’m done for this post! To be honest, there are a few more brands but they didn’t wear it as much as these so I will save it for the next post. If you are still reading, thank you for bearing with me
Hope you enjoy reading this. To end my super crazy long post, let just take a moment and throwback the only Gala Dinner we saw JY was smiling. Do you know what’s missing in all recent Gala Dinners? His soulmate, his beloved, his kitten!
We will wait patiently til the day they are strong enough to stand next to each other, side by side in public. For now, let's continue to show our love and support to YuZhou.
@aeislaeigh no worries XD we will always be here
@Kyleaddicted I'm glad you like it. Just, maybe edit your quoted post and you can just tag me instead haha. I don't want our members have to scroll through my crazy long post again and again *shy*
Have you read part 1 and 2 yet? You will find out who is YZ's stylist in my opinion XD
Quite a remarkable job of searching details, brands and much more really amazing seeing all this done so well and so consistent. Very nice post i have to say

You look like a sort of Wikipedia about Addicted and a restless one
I think ZZ having concert here is quite unrealistic there will be more than just language barriers and you need to gather a consistent number of people for a concert that justify costs and this i do not see it happening at least over here. While it is possible and even if not soon an European fan meeting. Together with my 'partner' we saw the internet link of D&G that looks more an event one organized by Mktg dept. rather than D&G knowing him/them directly but we can be completely mistaken. Good to know that there is a great brand that has his/their official contact. So @Alby Romait might be interesting to know if really Stefano and/or Domenico know him/them directly. This is your world if .....one day all can become easier, even if you did not even know that JY was just few steps away !!!! (AyB)
Oops You very right fortunately i do not know many things, however stick with facts and see your PVT MSG.

Yes, Dolce and Gabbana has invited JY to Milan before. Excerpts from the website
Huang Jingyu: Liaoning, China November 30, 1992
Occupation: Actor
Weibo: Johnny黄景瑜
Followers: 2.574.000
Trivia: Huang Jingyu, known in English as Johnny Huang found fame in the extremely successful and controversial web series Addicted that was banned by Chinese media regulators in 2015. Huang’s rise to fame included him being invited along with the Chinese contingent by Harper’s Bazaar China and Xiandanjia to the Cannes Film Festival in 2016. Huang has a dog called Billy.I still remember that some Korean and Chinese fans were there to support him. I guess the question is, how many people do you need to have a successful fan meet in Europe?
In Korea, 3,000 fans attended ZZ's concert. I believe a similar number will attend JY's fan meet in Korea later this year.
@xix19xixthanks for sharing that

Just wondering if he or they are invited to Europe if they are willing to come and meet local fans, It still looks their main focus is on Asia hope they know now their popularity goes beyond Asia/ It could be very interesting a press conference/fan meeting in Europe honestly
Great opportunity if the audience is already big enough do you think is it already ? but what about the press conference ............tricky one....

Here's where I understand how it happened: The SAPPRFT issued a memo on April 2nd to media outlets that they are to not promote the series. The implied statement being the leads could not appear to promote 'Addicted'.
Taking that, and to ensure their respective futures have success, each of their representation would take the necessary precautions against anything that may be construed to fan the flames further. Which, I can't blame them. They want to see their clients be successful.
As for the Thai FM (15 days after the SAPPRFT memo!), that too was another weight that tips the scales, in my mind, towards them having a really sincere and close relationship. And yes, FS's young age and overwhelming emotions were really tough to watch. Imagine being on that stage, having just finished watching that lovely video of the fans preparing to come meet you, and turning around to see everyone in that auditorium holding up signs that read, "We're with you." I get chills thinking about that. The impact it had on HJY, as well, was telling. I think ZZ handled it better than the other three because he's had experience in front of audiences before. I also think ZZ's management is very good at what they do, and have been able to keep ZZ focused on his future career... also if I'm not mistaken, it was ZZ's management that ran out on stage to separate ZZ and HJY after FS pushed them together.
I agree, it is cruel to separate those who want to be together. But I also think it's evil to demand such a thing, and hold their future successes and careers over their heads as hostage. And let's be clear about that - because that is exactly what the whole bans implied.
Here's the moment in the Thai FM, where the fan video ends.
And don't even get me started on this again... T.T
@baw74 What you wrote of course is correct but there are some odds things in all this story. Why a second reiterate informative by SAPPRFT that however has some clear borders and affects media only for reasons I can easily imagine in order to avoid the increase of people looking on how to find online the series. There many questions whose answers we will know i hope in the near future

Yes, the chemistry between them was so palpable. I wonder what was the very first reaction of the crew and CJD when they first witnessed it. I guess it's along the lines of utter silence with their jaws dropping.
I also wanna ask about the ban on them being together. Was this ruled by the Chinese censors or was it imposed by their respective managers? Does anyone here know the specifics of it? So far I am only able to read the ban on the series and the promotion of their respective characters including FS and CW. But seeing that the latter two can still be seen together and even interact in social media, leaves me puzzled why JY & ZZ have such a harsh treatment imposed upon them and who and why it was imposed to them exclusively?
I just don't see the point in doing this other than fanning the rage of the fans against the censors. Did they see something early on that all of us have come to individually conclude? I agree with u @baw74 that their chemistry is just so apparent that the authorities might have viewed it as a threat to their archaic ways.
The Thai FM was the most heartbreaking. I could only imagine what was going on behind the scenes. Ironically it wasn't the reaction of the two that caught my attention but FS's. Being the youngest I guess he wasn't able to control his emotions as well as the others. We've all seen the clip of him pushing ZZ to the side of JY but the one that really got me teary was when a sobbing FS wished both ZZ and JY well. (I dunno where I watched it so if anyone know the link of this can you guys post it here? Tnx!)
It certianly is very cruel to separate two people who genuinely adore each other, regardless if they are romantic or not.
Again I didn't mean to ramble... Its just a deluge of words whenever I talk about the ban.
@suehpec the ban on them is almost sure does not come by the Chinese censors not officially and apparently not even unofficially. The more i dig the more seems a strong protection coming higher than their managers to avoid that this sort of feeling they do have each other might cause severe issues to both of them. In one of the video above posted recently, where they are both awarded ZZ cannot even look at him, he does sporadically. This might (apparently but not very apparently) mean they need to avoid to show publicly feelings. Then they wisely try to communicate to their respective audiences and also to each other their feelings in a very smart way and here in the last two pages you have wonderfully and with hard work summarize their links that i am sure is real now. Before i had some doubts. I removed my doubts after the letter was read by ZZ and when he clearly mention 'Da Hai' in a song and the post with the cat. I hope only that in their private life far from the 'paparazzi' they can enjoy each other at least as human being everybody deserves love freedom i can not imagine anything different from that so far. The ban won't last too long not this one only but in general. The recent election in Hong Kong legislative despite China mainland plans is a strong answer that China must taken in serious consideration and they will if they wish to survive, people do not need just money to live better but much more than that.

Wow. Thanks
It took the four of us more than a month to translate the 74 minutes video. I am not sure if it is too exhausting for one person to translate into three languages... Actually, the most critical thing right now I feel is to re-upload the video with credits. Furthermore, I understand that adding subtitles is a tedious process. I am not sure if it is possible for more than one person to work on the subtitling... It is going to be exhausting work for @narakeiko.
At the same time, the subtitling can be very confusing too. Since we are translating not only the chinese sub-titles but also what were said by JY, ZZ and others. Maybe it's best for @narakeiko to work out so that we can refine the script if needed for future translation into other European languages (if you or other people are still in for it later on)
@xix19xix agreed as usual clear if you need me just let me know ...........

Thanks @gashupingo, @skeletonworks and @bearology for your advice. Erm... the problem is I don't wish to open a youtube channel. Is there anyone who is willing to adopt and work with @narakeiko on the subbing? By the way, as advised, I've included the credits right at the beginning.
@skeletonworks, I honestly feel that if someone wants to use the translation, I am more than happy. They can certainly credit us. I mean it's not just my work. It is the effort of 4 people, including @lovelogic26, @prima13facie and @jlt4ever too. Personally, I don't even see it as plagiarism if it means more non-Chinese speaking folks get to know how they got to know each other and how their relationship developed. That is my motivation in the first place.
By the way, the video does not include events from June onwards such as the concerts of JY and ZZ and the instagram post of the white cat, etc. But I guess it at least gives us a good idea of how they know each other from Nov 2015 to May 2016.
Last but not least, when I woke up today, I suddenly remembered that I skipped a 8 seconds segment because it was unintelligible to me. The snippet is between 1:10:32 to 1:10:40. Can anyone make out what ZZ is saying then?
@lielee, I think I will melt if ZZ and JY sing the Promise one day...even if they sang it with a Chinese accent.
@xix19xixi can help or try to help on sub in italian, french and spanish in case you need

For some of you might means nothing but I am sure you know G20 is actually in China in the city of HangZhou USA, Canada Italy and UN stressed a lot indirectly about human rights while South Korea went even deeper about a recent ban on targeting its own country, we expect Angela Merkel to go even sharper. China is going to meet again Obama in few days in Vientiane Laos from 6 to 8 Sept for the Asean Conference and again South Korea will be there too. Obama is going to talk about human rights in a stronger way HBO journalist are following among other most of them are LGBT members very active ones. I know this may not directly ease or remove the ban but I want simply let you know that a 360 degree action is going on, that may lead to nothing but is a bell ringing once again for China. Have you all a good Sunday

And this was the domino effect that I was worried about and that all of us have mentioned in the past. This is why we ask that negativity is left on whatever social media platform it originated. Makes sense that in this way there is no possible way for anyone else to create any new rumors. Misguided individuals lock into the distorted truths and create new accounts further spreading the ridiculous and vile rumors re-posted from those other social media platforms. Will that help our idol?
Did we help or harm them in this instance? I don't know why anyone who is a fan of the boys would follow or chose to read vile and disgusting untruths about them. But if such accounts are unavoidable then the best that we can do is report them, block them, not read them do not give these trolls that sort of power over our idols. That is how we can show our love and support. As always this is only my opinion and I can not speak for anyone else.
@filmlore46 i think reporting and ignoring is just fine at the end of they day he has 17 followers others idiots like him. In all media environment when you reach some high degree of notoriety you may need also to take those trolls into account. It is part of the game having some contrary wind sometimes.

@charlie10 i have looked on this translate site Link looks like Johnny is playing with words again because you can translate it in several meanings hahaha
是 = is / are / am / yes / to be
一 = one / 1 / single / a (article) / as soon as / entire / whole / all / throughout
个 = individual / this / that / size / variant of
新 = new / newly / meso- (chemestry)
男友 = boyfriend
It looks like Chinese has so many differend meanings in just 1 character i wondering how mutch it happens in a conversation that one say just one word it can be i dunno about 5 or 6 differend meanings have hahahaha no wonder that Chinese so hard to learn is.
By the way Johnny looks soooo sexy sexy sexy with those stubble beard ( hahaha yeah repeat it 3 times)
@Kim Kruisbessie you are right this because most of Asians language are different from ours. I mean they have mostly tonal languages hence you must be very specific and listen what by writing becomes complicated as you correctly wrote. They use references what we do not (I have 2 dogs in most Asians become I have 2 dogs animal) because the same word used for dog has several other meanings. This guy despite his age is always very smart and i have always had the impression he uses the words as a sort of link to the other one to inform his audience. Why now he has to mention that he is the boyfriend of somebody else ? or he has a chemistry attraction toward someone ? i am a different boyfriend what different can mean a lot again. Moreover expression of the pictures are a sort of childish ones, that we all have been using when we have been in love, or very tired

Can somebody who has full details let me know if this DVD distribution and sales is apparently originated by Taiwan actually hence they must have received a sort of copy right licensee to do so. This might mean a sort of by passing some relevant aspects, I am interested to understand who has the copy right about that and where money are going. It might look irrelevant but it is not at all so whoever has some data about this aspect and wish to share will be highly appreciated. Thanks a lot.

Great article Alby Roma, thumbs up for you..::)).. Anyone with the same 'passion' 'love & support' for ShangYin & our two adorable boys HJY&XWZ as us is MOST WELCOME here in this dedicated YuZhou Soompi family ;)).. Your article is really good and I'm sure it'll attract so much more people's attention and support outside of China for the series and in particular for our two incredible boys YuZhou.. Although however..& whatever.. we hope and pray that our two boys CAN and WILL continue to move on 'peacefully' 'smoothly' and 'greater successfully' without further obstacles/complications of any.. But certainly, ALL SUPPORT & 'HELPING HEARTS' for YUZHOU are much appreciated ;)).. I'm a 'slow' one here in this fandom, forever behind everyone with reading etc lol.. I'm sure you're enjoying yourself here very much Alby Roma and everyone's who's a newbie haha.. Aren't we glad to have this YuZhou family..?!.. Thankyou everyone :))).. Big hugs..xx..
@lovehaiyinThanks a lot really appreciated I really hope those 2 smart guys can have a great success. and much more I really wish to see them together back again even for few minutes they do deserve it. Banning a movie or series I can understand, banning people i cannot and i will never accept it. It will take decades to see another Asian series breaking the west part of the world, hence for sure my support is endless above all under a merely human right point of view. Be sure out there we have quite a large number of people hardly working, some silently trying at least to ease the ban what it is hard but we all need to be consistent and persistent.

@charlie10This is the road that links North West Italy with the french coast, despite on Instagram the name is not really on the sign but i presume this has relation simply with the word deviation that except the accent are written similar in french and English he has chosen a deviated (another way of living) what puzzled me that this photo has been most probably taken when he did the photo service hence he has been choosing this specific photo among others in thst specific moment to underline that he has finally decided to start a different path from others.

Well, I suspect that most Chinese are happy with the way things are. After all, China is relatively safe for a big country. How many Western nations can claim that it is safe for women to walk alone in the streets in the middle of the night? You can in China. The economy is chugging along better than most European countries. The problem is they are still at the phase where they have bigger issues to tackle such as corruption, redistribution of wealth, food safety, inflation, ethnic tensions, South China Sea, etc. LGBT rights is honestly a matter of the minority. They won't pay too much attention to this for a while.
I don't think Arab Spring is a good example too. After all, China takes care of its people enough to lift many out of poverty. Most are contented. I have to say that many Chinese (including overseas Chinese) seriously disdain the democratic system of Taiwan. It is just too chaotic and all about trying to bring down your political opponents rather than doing actual work. Instead, Singapore is a closer comparison. I think China like our system. We are basically also one party rule with strong economic fundamentals and basic rights. By the way, Singapore isn't socially progressive too, due to the influence of religious conservatives. I think we will be one of the last in the world to recognise LGBT rights. In fact, it is still criminal by law (though not enforced) to engage in consensual same sex intercourse.
That is not to say that China is not changing. But she prefers a non-aggressive approach unlike the Umbrella movement in Hong Kong. Have you all seen clips of Fu Yuanhui during the Olympics? China is actually celebrating (with the world) a bronze medal winner who exudes authentic joy and personality. Several news reports have shared how this is a stark contrast to the reaction of Chinese in previous Olympics. So change will come but not in the Western way.
If we are hoping they will get married in the next few years though, it probably would have to be overseas. By the way, they are only 22 and 24... I think they should wait. Sorry if I offend anyone here. I am writing as if they are a couple because I seriously think they are. But they may not be.
On a lighter note, JY has gained a fair bit of weight lately. Some weibo fans joked that ZZ is "responsible" for the "growing tummy".
@xix19xix Always a great pleasure interacting with you next time i will be in Singapore (where i believe you are ) we can have a chat perhaps in one of the toast box shop that i like a lot or elsewhere. All you said is correct but despite illegal in Singapore plenty of sauna, msg, and cruising opportunity here and there but i really hope next time i come we can meet Usually i am each quarter in Singapore it might be an opportunity above all for me to understand more about Asia and about Addicted as you know on both much more than me at least hundredfold more Thanks a lot i do mean it

I think we have taken for granted many things that were permissive in the West. China is more concerned about the legitimacy of the ruling party than personal freedom. Media is a propaganda machine to maintain order and good behaviour, rather than an avenue to promote new ways of thinking and new perspectives.
Ironically for their economy to be vibrant and innovative, they need to be more receptive to diverse opinions and interpretation of social norms.
I am not sure when China will be more liberal and let the masses to decide what is good or bad. The funny thing is probably in the minds of many officials, too much freedom is actually a step backwards. You know it is the same as how some religious organisation consider acceptance of alternative lifestyles as a sign of decadence...
However, considering that it took nearly 50 years for gays to gain the rights to marry in USA, China may already be on an accelerated path towards a more open society.
Incidentally, the biggest LGBT company in the world is in China btw.
I saw this mv the other day. How I wish one day JY and ZZ will make a similar wedding mv. It will be so beautiful...
@xix19xix you are very right the biggest LGBT organization - without counting Hong Kong and Macau - is actually in China, Media are indeed a propaganda machine that however nobody really cares too much. China has the largest number of people travelling abroad and mainly to the west and with the years their education is on rise hence they have been starting thinking. A large number of Chinese despite the ban has been watching Addicted what is easy to understand by watching the reaction they have during the concert as the very last one. It is true in the western world we got thing after several years but we have been fighting for it. This is the big difference, i do not see China actually going on a more open society i see part of Chinese mocking the ruling party and going on their way anyway. The interactions of those 2 actors is a daily bypassing the rules. I found a weibo interaction of the actor that plays the role of the father of BLY in the series a good, strong and brave one. What it is hard for me to understand - perhaps because i am not Chinese - is our there, they have 1 billion 300 million people most of them drinking bitter water without spitting that's the most dramatic part. I do not believe in country changing if people is not willing to change. I love despite few mention here the author of the book of these series, she is really a great one indeed she dreams with consistent words and challenging the party, brave and visionary continuing her prolific work. I have seen Asians countries changing quite a lot with people risking their life i hope as it has been happening with Arab spring with all its problems also in Asia some countries will start standing up for their rights. Myanmar is an example that should push others, Thailand is on a sort of beginning and Singapore despite free compared to others is going to change the constitution in favor of minorities to be more representative. Japan and Taiwan are big example of democracy keeping their culture alive but also giving people freedom. My apology to be so long but there are situation believe me very hard to be accepted by watching people with no reaction at all. China continues to ban and will continue to do so until people will no halt them and they do ban because they know they can because nobody dares challenging them

Some people do react fortunately http://edition.cnn.com/2016/01/27/asia/china-first-gay-marriage-court-case/ i admire those people able to chase a prehistoric system without giving up if all could do that a change will happen particular in time like this as media are everywhere and China won't dare to cross the line, it would sound too dangerous and problematic for them to explain

It's heartbreaking to think about whether or not they've moved on from Addicted, but I guess it is a fact of life. They're actors after all. I just wish Addicted will always have a special place in their hearts, the same way it has in ours.
I hope that 8 or 10 years from now, when their country's more open to this sort of genre or topic, they can have a televised reunion of sorts recounting what they've been through since, like those Sound of Music gatherings they hold every 5 years.
@Kyleaddicted well in 10 years is quite a long time honestly i hope they can sit together somewhere close to each other without waiting to so long time, in 10 yrs time i do not think China will ever change, if you wait them to change nothing will ever change. Countries can change if people wish to change

. JY wore this first back on 14/06 during his photoshoot for OK! x HJY x Olay ad. ZZ wore it during his livestream photoshoot for L’Officiel on 29/06. Then, ZZ wore it again for his OK! Thailand Magazine photoshoot on 28/07. The first 2 photoshoots were back in June. JY’s Olay clip was released not long after that. I’ve been keeping an eye for ZZ L’Officiel photoshoot photos. They released one or two photos from this shoot around the first week of August but not with this top. I thought because this top was spotted quickly by CPF that JY wore it not long ago so they decided not to release this photo.
) show
Have you read part 1 and 2 yet? You will find out who is YZ's stylist in my opinion XD
I think ZZ having concert here is quite unrealistic there will be more than just language barriers and you need to gather a consistent number of people for a concert that justify costs and this i do not see it happening at least over here. While it is possible and even if not soon an European fan meeting. Together with my 'partner' we saw the internet link of D&G that looks more an event one organized by Mktg dept. rather than D&G knowing him/them directly but we can be completely mistaken. Good to know that there is a great brand that has his/their official contact. So
