When I Saw Jackson Yee’s Album Delay Notice, I Realized: Overseas Fans Deserve Better Access

I was scrolling through Weibo during my lunch break at a café in Toronto when I saw the news: Jackson Yee’s new album, ‘礐嶨 2025 (Live)’, was delayed. The official post was polite—’new release date to be announced, thank you for your understanding’—but my heart sank a little. Not just because I’ve been replaying his tracks since his TFBOYS days, but because it reminded me of all the times I’ve missed out on releases, concerts, or shows simply because I live overseas.

You know that feeling? When you’re excited to stream a new drama or listen to a fresh drop, only to be hit with that ‘This content is not available in your region’ message. It’s like being left out of a group chat with your closest friends. Last month, my cousin in Beijing sent me a clip of a variety show she thought I’d love—the hosts were cracking jokes, the audience was roaring, but all I got was a buffering wheel and eventual error screen. I ended up watching a grainy, subtitled upload days later, feeling like I’d time-traveled to the event.

Jackson’s delay notice included a line that hit home: ‘祈愿同胞平安’ (Wishing our compatriots safety). It made me think—what about us ‘同胞’ scattered across the globe? We’re still tuning in, still supporting artists like him, but often, we’re an afterthought. Stats from a 2023 overseas fan survey show that over 60% of Chinese living abroad face geo-blocks weekly, with music and variety shows being the biggest culprits. Yet, we find ways: VPNs, family accounts, or just waiting patiently. It’s not just about convenience; it’s about staying connected to home.

I remember back in college, my roommate and I would huddle around a laptop to watch the latest episodes of ‘The Untamed’—buffering every few minutes, but we didn’t care. Now, as a working adult in a different time zone, I’ve missed live streams of concerts because they aired at 3 AM my time, with no replays available here. It’s these small frustrations that pile up. When Jackson’s album drops, I’ll probably have to ask my mom to screen-record it for me, just like she did with my childhood favorite shows.

So, to all my fellow overseas fans feeling that disconnect: you’re not alone. Let’s share our workarounds and keep the support flowing—because no matter where we are, we’re still part of the conversation. What’s the last show or album you struggled to access?
