Addicted (Chinese: 上瘾; pinyin: Shàngyǐn), also known as Heroin, is a 2016 Chinese 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 (Timmy Xu) and Gu Hai (Huang Jingyu), who fall in love despite their different backgrounds. The series premiered on January 29, 2016 and aired for three episodes weekly until February 23, 2016, when it was banned by Chinese authorities before its finale. The series developed a cult following in Asia, propelled its two leading actors to fame, and marked the official ban of LGBTQ content in mainland China’s film and television industry.
