Entering the World of ‘Speed and Love’
Esther Yu and He Yu’s fresh drama, “Speed and Love,” is creating quite a buzz in the entertainment industry. Adapted from the popular web novel ‘Star Trails’ by Shi Jiu Yuan, the production has begun filming, but it is unfortunately marred by behind-the-scenes controversies. While audiences eagerly await the pairing of Yu and He, recent events are causing a stir.
Social Media Cryptic Messages and Production Response
Recently, Esther Yu shared a cryptic message on social media in the early hours, hinting at challenges during production. She stated, “There will definitely be some grievances and difficulties on the road to growth, but I will do my best for you who love me! Don’t worry.” This statement led to a whirlwind of speculation regarding potential issues on set.
In response to the growing rumor mill, the production team released an official statement addressing the controversies. They dismissed claims of “actor bullying” and explained that certain staff members who leaked confidential information had been let go. Directors Yu Zhongzhong and Zhao Xiaolei aim to maintain the quality of the production while ensuring a safe working environment for everyone involved.
Netizen Skepticism and Show’s Promotion
Despite the production’s reassurances, many netizens remain unconvinced, especially after the show’s first poster was released, officially labeling Esther Yu as the female lead and unveiling its English title. Esther attended the iQIYI Scream Night, expressing her emotional connection to the script and her enjoyment of collaborating with the directors.
However, the off-screen troubles don’t seem to quiet. Rumors of disgruntled extras complaining about treatment continue to crop up, keeping ‘Speed and Love’ in the hot search. With both the drama and the dynamics around it under scrutiny, fans are left pondering what will unfold next.
