Guangdong's provincial radio and television bureau opened its draft rules implementing the national Micro-Drama Development Management Measures for public comment on October 12, with a November 11 deadline. Compared with the national rules, the draft makes filing mandatory for Class II micro-dramas rather than optional, sets a 15-working-day review clock for Class I and II, and requires platforms to apply the same licence checks or pre-broadcast review and programme numbers to dramas uploaded through user accounts. One media report said the draft classifies interactive dramas by whether they are live-action or AI-generated; we did not find that provision in the official attachment.
