Rumors that a Chinese remake of the hit tvN drama series 'Guardian: The Lonely and Great God' is in the works are causing a significant buzz on Chinese online communities. 

According to the rumors, the remake series will be jointly produced by Korean and Chinese companies and will run for 36 episodes. Each episode is expect to be 45 minutes long, and the drama is currently considering global distribution via Netflix. The series will reportedly be filmed in Xiamen, Hainan and Macao. 

However, it seems that many Chinese netizens are averse to the idea of a remake. Some commented, "It's unnecessary", "Don't ruin one of the best dramas", "I hope this falls through", etc. Others also speculated that the social media post circulating via online communities was false,

Meanwhile, tvN's original hit drama series 'Guardian: The Lonely and Great God' aired from December of 2016 through January of 2017. The story featured lead actors like Gong Yoo, Kim Go Eun and more.

So, they ban anything Korean, but have absolutely no problem trying to capitalize on Korean entertainment/culture.
