I really love the 上瘾 Addicted series and after the conclusion of the first season I went on a hunt for more information regarding the series and the actors. Here's a comment that I've found~ Credits to Ruiting Yu (YT) Hey, guys, I'm just going to share some facts and news for those who can't read Chinese and don't have Weibo. Do keep in mind that although these pieces of information are all confirmed, nobody knows what will happen in the future (the team is facing a lot of problems right now because of all the censoring, lack of funds, etc.) 1. THERE WILL BE A SECOND SEASON. CJD said on her Weibo account that the preparations are supposed to start in March and the filming in May. But the thing is, we will probably get to watch the second season in the beginning of 2017. CJD said that Heroin and the other drama are seasonal dramas. The other one airs in the summer and Heroin in the winter. The second season will also be longer than this first season, and that's totally predictable because the story becomes much sadder and heavier after this episode, but don't worry, it will have a happy ending. 2. THEY WILL NOT CHANGE THE CAST. CJD knows what she's doing. It is obvious that if the cast changes, they will lose many fans. Not to mention that they will face so much hate on Weibo, and let me tell you, don't underestimate the power of AFoW (Angry Fans on Weibo lol). They can say things so harsh that you can't even imagine. Also, CJD loves her boys. She wouldn't want to change the cast for anything. And the boys are very close too. You can be sure of that. Just go to their Weibo or Miaopai and you'll see. 2. The fact that this drama has been taken down online in mainland China will NOT affect the production of the second season. Whether it's CJD or the boys, they all seem to be very excited about it. The actors don't look like they know the exact start date of the filming, but it is positive that they are all looking forward to it. (Let's hope that they won't delay the filming because of the reasons mentioned earlier) 3. I'm guessing that there will be three seasons. As I said before, the story gets very heavy after this one and only one more season will not be enough to finish it. I don't want to give away spoilers, so I'm just going to explain this very briefly. CJD said that she is not sure where the second season will end at, but it won't be long enough to reach ...a certain part... of the story yet. So that means there will be more than two seasons. 4. They are looking for sponsors. They didn't expect that this first season will be so popular, so they didn't do much for reserving the credits and looking for strong and rich sponsors. CJD is planning to do some advertising in the second season (though not too much please). Although that is understandable because, according to the story (no spoilers lol), they will need money to produce what's coming next. But now the problem is: even when the staff already cut out A LOT of scenes already, the first season still got banned by SAPPRFT for the following reasons: "mention of drugs", "unusual sexual activities and orientations" and "violation of the public morals". If the first season got banned, it won't be a surprise that the second season follows, because there will be much more sexual scenes going on. So if we run the risk to get the second season banned again, it will be difficult to find good sponsors. But I am positive that money won't be the main problem. 5. If they lack of funds, or if the filming gets complicated, they might have to change a few things for the next seasons. Again, not to spoil anything, they will need money to film what's coming next. CJD said that even if they change some things, they will still follow the original story and use the original dialogues. What I am worried about is if they will be able to make the DVDs and if season two will be normally produced and funded.
