Addicted (Chinese: 上瘾; pinyin: Shàngyǐn), also known as Heroin, is a 2016 streaming television series based on the boys' love novel Are You Addicted? (你丫上瘾了) by Chai Jidan. The series is about two sixteen-year-old boys, Bai Luo Yin and Gu Hai, who despite their social differences and personal history forge a close love relationship. Starring Xu Weizhou and Huang Jingyu in their television debut, it premiered on January 29, 2016, and aired for three episodes weekly until February 23, 2016, when it was banned by Chinese authorities.
