| Zhao Lusi Sparks Agency Exit Rumours Amid Favouritism Allegations (Instagram/Xiaohongshu) |
Rumours are swirling once again around one of C-drama’s biggest sweethearts — and this time, it’s not about a drama role or a rumoured CP. Zhao Lusi is reportedly no longer under contract with her management agency, Galaxy Cool Entertainment (also known as Yinhekuyu Media), and fans are buzzing over the possible behind-the-scenes drama that led to this quiet split.
The speculation kicked off when eagle-eyed netizens noticed something missing from Zhao Lusi’s Xiaohongshu bio — her agency’s name.
The edit may seem subtle, but for C-ent watchers, it's a tell-tale move that usually signals a change in status. And things didn’t stop there.

Some also dug up an old Xiaohongshu post that Zhao Lusi allegedly liked — one that called out Galaxy Cool for pouring all their marketing money into The Princess’s Gambit starring Meng Ziyi, while seemingly giving the cold shoulder to Lusi’s own major hits like Hidden Love and Love Like the Galaxy. That move, liked or not, speaks volumes to her fans who’ve long been side-eyeing the company’s treatment of her.
To add more fuel to the fire, people are linking this situation to a post Zhao Lusi made after she was hospitalised in late December. She openly admitted she’d been battling depression and physical ailments caused by a “bad relationship with [her] boss”. Though she didn’t name names, fans didn’t need a map to start connecting dots.
In response, Galaxy Cool Entertainment issued a firm denial back then, brushing aside the mental health concerns and attributing any tension to simple “disagreements on work plans”. They also warned against spreading what they called false allegations.
Now, with contract rumours re-igniting, Galaxy Cool has given a brief but vague new statement: “We have not terminated the contract. Thank you.” No further clarification, no attempt to squash the fire — just enough to stir even more debate.
As of now, Zhao Lusi has remained silent on the matter — no studio statement, no social media hints, just business as usual. She’s recently been spotted working, with no signs of slowing down professionally. But fans are wondering: Is she finally going independent? Will she sign with a new team? Or is this just another cold war situation behind the scenes?
