After much anticipation, filming has officially started for the double male lead series, “The Silence of the Monster” (孤独的野兽), on June 12 in Chongqing. The production team announced NEXT members, Bi Wenjun (毕雯珺) and Zhu Zhengting (朱正廷), as the leads in alpha order based on their last names. The rumors around the cast have been circulating since late 2019. At one point, former NINE PERCENT member, Lin Yanjun, was tied to the project.

It’s reported the series is an original script. There is no detailed storyline yet, but the casting poster is already enough to attract viewers. The official Weibo account provided this excerpt: “In everyone’s mind, there exists a lonely monster. Walking silently while living a busy lifestyle, pride and roar are deeply stored in the heart. In the vast cemented forest, are you willing to cross the endless deep sea to meet a beast like me?”
