China Cracks Down on Low-Quality Online Micro-Dramas

In a bid to promote the healthy development of the online micro-drama industry, the Chinese government has introduced a new regulation that prohibits the online transmission of low-quality micro-dramas. According to a recent notice published by the National Radio and Television Administration, all micro-dramas must undergo a "classification and layered audit" system, which categorizes them into three levels. The regulation stipulates that online video platforms are not allowed to broadcast micro-dramas without a permit or filing number, nor can they promote or recommend such content. This move aims to maintain social morals and promote positive social values by keeping inappropriate content offline.
