Addicted (Chinese: 上瘾; pinyin: Shàngyǐn), also known as Heroin, is a 2016 streaming television series based on the boys' love novel Are You Addicted? (你丫上瘾了) by Chai Jidan. The series is about two sixteen-year-old boys, Bai Luoyin and Gu Hai, who despite their social differences and personal history forge a close love relationship. Starring Timmy Xu and Huang Jingyu in their television debut, it premiered on January 29, 2016, and aired for three episodes weekly until February 23, 2016, when it was banned by Chinese authorities. The series' groundbreaking success and its subsequent ban brought attention to the taboo topic of homosexuality in mainland China.[1] The series has since developed a cult following.[2]
