YOUKU Sets November 11 Premiere for Chinese BL Drama Love on a Leash
YOUKU has released a premiere-date trailer for Love on a Leash, a Chinese BL suspense drama that begins streaming on November 11.
01The date is set
YOUKU has published a premiere-date trailer for Love on a Leash (Chinese title 欲望牵绳) on its official YouTube channel. The video title gives November 11 at 12:00 as the start date, and the platform labels the show as a BL drama. The trailer comes with English subtitles, a sign that YOUKU is also aiming the series at viewers outside China through its international app and website.
02What the story is about
According to YOUKU's description, the series is a modern suspense story built on a tense push and pull between two men. Years ago, Fang Yu did a small act of kindness that Shan Shuchun happened to see, and Fang Yu became the person Shan quietly idealised. When the two meet again by chance, Shan, who carries childhood trauma and a possessive streak, holds Fang Yu against his will.
03A darker kind of romance
The description says harm and tenderness are mixed together, and that Fang Yu keeps trying to escape while also being shaken by Shan's unusual care. The two characters struggle between control and resistance and are forced to face their own past wounds. The themes are clearly darker than a typical romance, so the series will suit viewers who like psychological drama.
