Duanju (simplified Chinese: 短剧; traditional Chinese: 短劇; pinyin: duǎn jù) Chinese micro dramas, Chinese short dramas, ultra-short dramas, or TikTok short dramas, are a type of web series that has gained popularity in China. These series are mostly adapted from web fictions and are released on new media platforms such as TikTok (抖音 in China). Each episode is very short, lasting only around one minute. The total duration is comparable to that of a movie. To facilitate viewing on mobile devices, Duanju are directly produced in a vertical screen. Short dramas are sometimes adapted into interactive movie games.[1]
