For The Young Ones, the latest production by China's leading online entertainment provider iQIYI and the first Chinese drama to feature juvenile prosecutors, premiered globally on Aug 14.

The series offers a nuanced exploration of widely discussed societal topics, including issues related to minors, and follows a dedicated team of juvenile prosecutors as they navigate complex cases and address the broader societal struggles affecting today's youth. It also goes beyond the courtroom to explore the root causes of juvenile offenses in an effort to shed light on pressing topics such as school bullying and parental neglect. With a warm and uplifting tone, For The Young Ones invites audiences to reflect on the human side of legal cases, showcasing how prosecutors take a holistic approach to their responsibilities by working together with families, schools, and communities to support minors.

Leading up to its premiere, the drama has generated high anticipation, thanks in part to its outstanding cast, including actor Zhang Yi, known for his powerful performance in The Knockout, and celebrated actress Qin Lan.

"We hope this show highlights that juvenile prosecutors do more than handle cases; they play a crucial role in shaping youth's lives. We also aim to raise awareness among adults about how to respond to incidents involving minors and ensure their well-being," said Jia Zhiqi, head of iQIYI Qixi Studio and chief producer of the series.

This drama series reflects iQIYI's commitment to creating powerful content that zooms in on social issues. Following the premiere of the thought-provoking film Trending Topic last November, which addressed cyberbullying, For The Young Ones further underscores iQIYI's dedication in raising awareness and promoting positive social change through its contents.
