While 8K television has been available in China for a while now, there is actually no 8K content readily available in the country. Owners of 8K TVs had to look for content upscaled to 8K since no true native 8K resolution shows were available. But now, a new show in China has apparently finished filming and is the first to have been recorded in 8K resolutions.

The new TV series is called “Love In Shanghai,” which is based on a novel by Yifei. It is directed Meng Ji and stars actors Guo Jingfei and Wang Luodan. Notably, the series theater adaptation has already received honors back in 2011 for its script, so there are quite a number of people looking forward to it. Thanks to 8K technology, the production has been shot in ultra high resolutions with vivid colors.

For those unaware, 8K has a resolution of 7680 x 4320px, with a total of 33 million pixels. In other words, its pixels count is 4 times higher than 4K resolution and 16 time higher than the current mainstream resolution of 1080p. At the moment, there are only a few TVs that support such ultra high resolutions in China. A great example being Samsung with its new QLED 8K TV Q950TS, which is the new flagship TV that launched back in May 2020. So for those that have such a high end TV, you can enjoy the story based in Shanghai in ultra high quality.
