In China, the Spring Festival's film and television releases are always highly anticipated every year.
Especially in the film industry, the battle of gods begins from New Year's Eve. Though the competition in the TV industry isn't as fierce as in the film industry, not everyone dares to schedule their release on the twenty-ninth of the New Year.
"City of Youth" truly has the courage to fight for viewership ratings with the Spring Festival Gala during such a major festival.
As a result, the drama has gained immense attention even before its broadcast, attracting countless netizens.
On the twenty-ninth evening, at eight o'clock, "City of Youth" officially premiered on the Penguin video platform.
At the same time, various viewership rankings started changing — "City of Youth's" real-time viewership surged upwards at an astonishing speed.
By the end of the first episode, the drama's valid viewership had entered the top ten.
