A popular entertainment forum recently saw a thread rack up over a thousand replies. The original poster asked: "Why is 'Burning Urgency' such a great ship? The two barely interact, and they act like strangers on variety shows. But somehow, I still ship them."
Top reply 1: "You don't get it, OP? Their appeal is that they have divorced-couple vibes."
Top reply 2: "Jiang Yuran and Yi Mei: a dance troupe's principal dancer and a top-tier star. A perfectly matched power couple."
Top reply 3: "I heard they went to the same high school but didn't know each other. Now they've both reached the top, only to realize they missed each other for so many years... Ah, what a wonderful setup."
Yi Mei read the posts, her vision going dark again and again. Because...
She and Jiang Yuran really had broken up!
[What do I do when the ship I just got into is a real-life divorced couple?]
