Love Endures, a popular drama aiming to portray the post-1990 generation in a new era, has proved to be hugely popular, garnering over 1.5 billion views on the streaming site Youku, an executive of the site revealed during a symposium held at Peking University on Monday.
Starring actress Yang Zi and actor Fan Chengcheng, the drama begins in 2008, as the country prepares to host the Summer Olympics.
Yang and Fan’s characters, both third-grade students at a middle school, are preparing, along with four other childhood friends who grew up in the same neighborhood in a northern city, for a stage play to commemorate their final year before entering adulthood.
