The creative personnel behind Delicious Romance, an upcoming film adapted from a popular online series, shared behind-the-scenes stories at Beijing Foreign Studies University at an event held on April 8.

Co-directed by filmmakers Leste Chen and Hsu Chao-jen, the movie is best described as a Chinese equivalent of the American hit Sex and the City. Starring actresses Li Chun, Zhang Hanyun and Wang Ju as three best friends, the story follows their personal challenges in career, family and love, examining the status quo of women in modern metropolises.

The film features the same cast as the namesake online series streamed in 2021, which was also directed by Chen and Hsu. The series, consisting of 20 episodes, gained popularity and earned an 8.1 out of 10 on the review aggregator Douban. It was also released in overseas markets such as South Korea.

During the promotional event, the three actresses performed the movie's theme song Girl Power with four students in five languages.

Director Chen said the movie aims to convey a positive message, encouraging young audiences to bravely follow their heart against the odds and overcome their stress.

The movie will be released in domestic theaters on April 15.
