Why LLD Fest?
Whether you’ve been a fan of LLD for a week, a year, or two years, something about them has drawn you in. Is it the way they look at each other? Is it how they defend each other to others? Is it their sincerity? The sound of their laughter together?
Maybe you ship them because Gong-laoshi is perfect in Zhang Zhehan’s heart.
Maybe you ship them because no one is more compatible with Gong Jun than Zhang-laoshi.
Maybe you love the way Zhang Zhehan supports Gong Jun’s singing, or how Gong Jun carries everything for Zhang Zhehan (whether it’s his script or his heart).
Maybe you ship them because they’re an unforgettable memory, and they’ll be there for each other forever.
Whatever the reason, you’re in.
The LLD fandom has seen its ups and downs over the last year and change. There’s been great joy, great kindness, and a lot of grief too. The community that has started because of LLD, and grown in strange and diverse directions, is incredible, and deserves a chance to celebrate.
We want to celebrate LLD and its fan community this July, and we hope you’ll join us.
