It’s funny that international viewers can enjoy Chinese entertainment and the forget that it’s still a one party communist country where any perceived freedom of expression is a leeway and not a right. The social contract that binds each person to his/her community and country is even more absolute in China and ergo the consequences more severe where there is a violation of a common agreement whether in behavior or belief. C-star Wu Yi Fan’s downfall is basically inked in stone, he has been formally arrested for alleged rape and will not be out on bail during the investigation and prior to his trial date. With the arrest the China Association of Performing Arts has issued an official ban and within one day every single project he participated in has been removed from Chinese streaming sites. It includes movies, MVs, variety show episodes that include him, CFs, and any videos whether official or fanmade. There is a lot of innocent other stars affected by this but no one is objecting lest they get on the wrong side of the heavy handed government response. On another similar topic, Zhang Zhe Han’s Chinese fans have either deserted him or is laying low but his I-fans have been fully on his side and criticizing his cancellation for visiting Yasukuni Shrine. Those fans are now facing also a potential removal and deletion of his dramas and videos from streaming sites, it hasn’t happened yet but I would grab what you want now because it may be all one has of Zhang Zhe Hans body of work as an actor.

Zhang Zhe Han's situation is just unfair. Too harsh a punishment for travelling and taking pictures. Just too harsh. Not even any chance to reflect, repent and return. Too harsh.
Nope, you guys should keep hailing the Chinese government.. It will touch everybody
This I agree.
No doubt, ZZH is so wrong for being insensitive/ignorant/self-absorbed or whatever available terms out there to the sufferings of the chinese in the past which I can understand the backlash. But the punishment is just too heavy for his wrongdoing.
Interesting how this article cites both names together when 1 is charged with rape and the other, not charged but you can say exercise poor judgement and bad taste. Both not even remotely the same level of misdeed.
I think that exactly why she put them together. There is no middle ground. Just shows how extreme the Chinese government can be.
This is definitely interesting considering touching anything Zhang Zhe Han would include tampering with the much acclaimed drama that is 'Nirvana In Fire'. His part was small, but he was the younger version of the lead. The drama starts with him.
I mean, even the KW identity wipe is a bit extreme considering what other countries do about celebs accused, let alone convicted, of rape (he totally deserves it tho) but the ZZH scandal is so.........I'm beginning to think he saw some CPC higher-up run over a kid and instead of reaping the benefits, he's being gotten rid of instead. Like what is even going on at this point???
