Starring Chen Xingxu and Lu Yuxiao, alongside Dai Xu, Ma Sichao, Li Tingting, Ren Youlun, Wang Zhifei, and Wang Ting, the series has attracted attention for its cast lineup and contemporary emotional theme.
The drama will air first on Dragon Television. Beginning January 9, it will broadcast at 7:30 p.m., starting with one episode on the premiere night. From then on, the airing schedule will vary by weekday: two episodes per night from Sunday through Thursday, and one episode per night on Fridays and Saturdays. The finale is scheduled to air on January 25.
For streaming platform members, the release pace will be faster. Four episodes will be made available at 7:30 p.m. on January 9, followed by nightly updates of two episodes. However, on January 16 and January 18, only one episode will be released each day, while no update is scheduled for January 21. Starting January 22, the update schedule will shift to one episode per night, leading up to the final episode on January 25.
As for non-member viewers, the detailed update rules have yet to be announced.
With a relatively compact broadcast plan across both television and online platforms, “Love Between Lines” aims to offer viewers a smooth and immersive watching experience. Entering a competitive early-year drama season, the series’ clear scheduling and steady release rhythm may help sustain audience engagement and discussion throughout its run.
