剧粉

• Pinyin: jù fěn
• Hanzi breakdown: 剧 means drama; 粉 means fan. The focus is the show itself.

Meaning

A fan of a specific drama or series, not necessarily of its actors.

剧粉 helps separate love for the work from actor fandom, CP fandom, or celebrity support. It is a useful neutral label in drama discussions.

Examples

1. 我是剧粉，只关心剧情别崩。 I'm a drama fan; I only care that the plot doesn't fall apart.
2. 剧粉夸的是导演节奏，不是单个演员。 The drama fans praised the director's pacing, not any one actor.
3. 大结局后，剧粉还在整理伏笔。 After the finale, the drama fans were still piecing together the foreshadowing.
