[2016] Addicted (aka Heroin) Web Series 上瘾网络剧

[Ijustcant]

Fun fact#2: The "Hai" of "Gu Hai" means sea, the "Yang" of "Gu Yang" means ocean, and the word "Hai Yang" means, well, sea and ocean. I personally think the reason that Gu Yang as an elder brother was given the second character of the word "Hai Yang" as given name is that ocean is bigger than sea. (tbh I really like that CJD named them this way.)

Haha no wonder when I try to translate the novel using google translate , I'll get Gu Hai --- Gu Sea , Gu Yang--- Gu Ocean

and Gh's dad is Gu Vito . The worst is Bly --- white heroin and his dad is white chinese flag! :leaf5:. Oh and You Qi ---- In particular (WHAT!!!)foxy4

 

We only have few episodes left :No!: wHEN will GH break up with his girlfriend. Faster break up:Red_fox4:

[Blazhou]

Lol... Now I understand why the hell with 'white heroin' word.. :Excited:

"Gu Vito" makes no sense at all lmao!!! OMG what does Google translate think? (A good English name for GH's father tho) "White Chinese flag" however is a right literal translated term, his name literally means that (more than that actually, it's complicated). "BLY" is more like white "roin", you need to put "Hai" and "Luo Yin" together to make "Heroin".

 

As for break up thing, soon baby soon~

[kmontsy]

i wonder how would they put the remaining contents of the story in 6 more episodes with less than half an hour time frame per release lol... will we ever get to witness the highlights shown in the trailer? Or some of it have already been ommited from the previous episodes?

 

Oh my lord...

 

 

We still have to keep our fingers crossed...

[kmontsy]

Yeah, only few more episodes to look forward to, sigh!

Well maybe CJD the author just came to test the waters, if her book/webseries could attract market eventually, and now its becoming a big hit, i just hope shes aware of the popularity of her works globally and she tends to prolong the season 2 with much details more than we could ever wish for hahaha

...

 

If ever the season 2 would start by May? When are they going to air it?

 

Coz several tv series get to completely shoot the entire episodes and it usually takes a year before the airing as the new season starts... sigh!

Most tv programs needs prolly 6-8mos of shooting and some 3-4mos of editing. Then prolly we need to wait yes, for a year. Just my calculations too. But since this is a webseries, I doubt they'll be taking a whole year to finish this .. hopefully by October or November this could be aired. Im also hoping that Season 2 would give us more than what Season 1 already has.

If they film it in May, there is another possibility there, they might be planning to air it during their summer holiday period, somewhere around July and August. So we need not have to wait for so long then.:Excited:

 

For this season, they filmed it around last year's Oct-Dec right? Then they aired it now. So, it seems possible right? :cuteonion54:

[mchan]

i believe every one already watching this, but let's just passing time while waiting for episode 10 & re-watch this again

 

 

my 5 cents? geez, get a room you two!!

:Red_fox6:

[Sloan]

CJD and the actors today are going back to Beijing because her company is from there. I can imagine now they are busy planning for more fanmeetings and probably greenlight upcoming events.

Haha, it was the first thing I noticed. In the beginning, there was something about Johnny's eyes that drew me in. But then I fell in love with Zhouzhou's wooky eyes. Hehehe. I mean, gosh are they photoshopped?? I can't believe how flawless these guys are.... I wonder if they used a feature on their phones to soften the contrast.... Since canine teeth are so popular and most desired trend in Japan, I'd think Japanese girls would find Johnny so hot and cute! But I love his front teeth.

 

The guy next to him, I don;t recognize him...? He's quite handsome but his eyebrows are wild!!! Hahaha

 

The video... ahh I love it when BLY plays pranks on him even after all these serious episodes... making me wonder when they're going back to school setting?? Are they on school break or something????

[leneay]

I'm dying to see ep 10 now, finally some big developments are going to happen :8yoyo13: but I'm also pretty certain it's gonna end in a terrible cliffhanger or at least in the middle of the fight between BLY and GH, so waiting for ep 11 or later to see them together again will kill me too :_red_fox 5 from here til the season's end i feel like I'm just gonna be on an emotional roller coaster xD.

 

 

I found some statistics about the audience of Addicted on the QQ site that I thought was interesting. I'm especially surprised at how many male viewers there are of the series, honestly never would have expected there to be more men than women.

 

 

 

 

This one is about the level of education: PhD and above, College/University, High School, Middle School, Elementary School.

 

 

 

Ages of viewers. I still have a few good years left in me before I become statistically unlikely to watch BL lol.

 

 

 

Views per day. I'm so happy to see the popularity of this series skyrocketing like this

 

 

[LolaLaRue]

So we're past ep 9 and still haven't had a single kiss or real development in the relationship (They're still not more than friends). Either the last 6 episodes are going to be crazy or we've missed so much development because of cut scenes that we'll have to wait for the extended series. If the series ends before they get together I think I'd be pretty devastated and while I would definitely be desperately waiting for series 2 I think some of the trust I had in the production would be damaged. Not to say I wouldn't support/watch but I'd be wary about the plan to bring the rest of the novel to life. How many series would it take to get to the end of the book? The behind the scenes makes it seem like they filmed a lot of stuff we have yet to see, but is that because of editing or because they weren't allowed to show it? Please let's kick this series into gear (even if you can't show kisses) give me relationship development. Give me BLY realising that he likes Gu Hai! Give me conversations where they grow closer. I need development.

[kyhfan14]

This serious maybe its up to us now to "DTR" them. I guess from ep08 they already had these intimate relationship with each other. Its brothers no more, much like love lol.

[boorazr]

Well wasn't planning to post anything since i'm just a lurker, well in terms of male viewers i can't talk much about the chinese men but i'm from indonesia and i can honestly say that some of my friends (yes male) watch this series and actually like it.

 

Not just indonesia tbh, i have friends overseas and most of them do enjoy addicted. Lets break it down, Addicted talking about the story in general flows beautifully, there is progression and you see how the relationship grows. SO yes to the contrary we guys do like a good storyline and no we don't look at the cast all the time and yes we do watch this sappy kind of series once in a while and yes we sometimes watch it with out gf.

 

but most importantly this series to some extent is very realistic, just because we are guys doesn't mean we are not open to other sexual adventures. In fact i've had my fair share of this kind of relationship (where i have a gf and i'm close to this one guy and etc). This kind of stuff is very common amongst guys (again can't represent the whole male population but yeah lol) it's just not many men like to explore more or even admit to having feelings for other guys.

 

Although it is to be noted we all went to private school so yes we are a lot more open minded and comfortable with our sexuality. It is kind of sad that a lot of guys can't be comfortable with their sexuality, i mean it's not like the sex is any different :Excited:

 

So yes all in all i am a guy and i watch this series and some of my male friends do watch this series too :Jumping around:

You took it the wrong way; I don't see why you needed to get all defensive. I am only surprised it's popular amongst men because the majority of BL fans are female. It's not in any way related to whatever stereotype of men you think I have.

If you have some secret to make guys watch Addicted, I would actually like to know cuz I've been trying to persuade my best friend to watch this with me for weeks now and he's still not budging :/

I thought straight guys would be more to yuri rather than yaoi themed?

[GingerCake]

This serious maybe its up to us now to "DTR" them. I guess from ep08 they already had these intimate relationship with each other. Its brothers no more, much like love lol.

 

In my opinion, I think the author is trying to portrays their relationship now as something like they can feel a little special in it but they are still not dare to admit or confess to it openly. They still need some time to making sure of it, especially BLY, he's a bit passive and cool.

 

GH somehow is not straightforward too, he given out so much of hints, but he did not goes straight to the point. He is treating BLY more like a brother, keep saying that "it's ok, we both are men, bla bla bla...", maybe he wanted to test on BLY's acceptability and worried if he get rejected, their tie and relationship will be no more. So he rather spends some time to do more for BLY.

 

On the other side, BLY might be feeling insecured and confused too. He received so much of hints from GH, but GH did not confess to him directly. BLY might be also worried if he's misunderstood GH's kindness is actually just friendship, brotherhood, or even having any motives on it (that's why he's trying to get some clues from GH's friends). Or he might also wondering that what if he's really fell in love with GH.

 

Moreover, this is their first time having some feelings with a guy, there should be some feelings of uncertainties that keeping deep inside their heart. So, it's not that easy to going through all these barriers. Their relationship is like in a grey zone now.

i'm happy to see that many peoples are more open-minded nowadays. good story is a good story, doesn't matter what is its gender preference. my brother is one of open-minded person too & i showed him this series. he said it's good & he started watching it too. good to see that peoples started to leave the prejudice mind toward LGBT

i have this question to you guys,

 

when do you think that BLY started to like GH?

 

let's hear your opinion here (i'm dying here waiting for episode 10, so let's lighten some moods)

leaf4

[LolaLaRue]

I don't think that BLY knows that he likes Gu Hai yet, but he's noticed how much Gu Hai cares for him. I think the change in attitude came after Gu Hai drugged him and took him to the school nurse. He's been gradually seeing all the things Gu Hai does for him but I still don't think he knows that he (BLY) likes Gu Hai as more than a brother.

Hi everybody! I just got the news via sms from my friend in China: Addicted aka Heroin aka ShangYin Web Series is going to have 3 seasons, each with 18 Episodes... so there is still a looooong way to go before the end. I hope my friend got this information right, but until now I never had a reason not to believe him. Thank you so much Juan, in China...!!

 

I hope this is true, then we can have more episodes to come. =)
