This new version stars Tian Hongjie as Duan Jiaxu and Huang Panpan as Sang Zhi. According to the drama’s official Weibo page, Hidden Love for You will consist of 24 episodes, though the runtime per episode has not yet been revealed. The drama is categorized as a short format series, likely to appeal to viewers looking for compact, emotionally rich storytelling.
The plot follows Sang Zhi, a girl who has secretly admired her older brother’s friend, Duan Jiaxu, since their school days. Years later, they meet again as adults, and the quiet affection she once hid begins to bloom into a deep, healing romance. Their journey explores themes of unspoken love, emotional trauma, and personal growth.

Youku announced the release via its official X (formerly Twitter) account, writing:
“#HiddenLoveforYou Streaming from June 26 on YOUKU! Watch Duan Jiaxu #TianHongjie and Sang Zhi #HuangPanpan turn a quiet crush into a burning romance!”
The drama is directed by Hu Xing and also features Ma Zhe as Sang Zhi’s older brother, Sang Yan, along with supporting cast members Zeng Qingsheng and Liu Boxu.
To clarify, Hidden Love for You is not a sequel or remake, but a new standalone version of the same source novel. In contrast, Hidden Love (2023) was a 25-episode standard-length drama. Youku’s 2025 version promises a shorter, stylized take on the story that still preserves the essence of long-term, unspoken love turning into mutual healing.
With its youthful charm and soft emotional tone, Hidden Love for You is set to be one of the most anticipated romance dramas of the summer—especially for fans of the original novel looking for a fresh perspective.
