Loosely based on the Taken Out format, the show is produced by JSBC : Jiangsu Television and taped in Nanjing. It was first broadcast on January 15, 2010, and originally aired twice a week on Saturday and Sundays until December 2014. From January 2015 to March 2017, It aired on Saturday nights at 9 : 10 pm on Jiangsu TV. In 2013, the show began broadcasting on SBS 2 ( now SBS Viceland ) in Australia, in an hour - long version with English subtitles provided by SBS. If You Are the One has been a ratings success in China and is now the highest - rated show for Jiangsu TV. Episodes are also widely distributed online. The show is viewed internationally over the internet and satellite television. The show 's popularity and social commentary has drawn attention of academics and foreign media, and after concerns from Chinese regulators in 2011 the show 's format was tweaked to de-emphasize factors such as financial wealth. After a short break from March 2017 to May 2017, If You Are the One returned in a revised format.

According to Beijing - based CSM Media Research, the audience ratings for Fei Cheng Wu Rao - which as of May 22, 2013 had screened a total of 343 episodes - were 2.77 percent of television viewers, or 36 million, twice as many as the nearest competitor for that timeslot. The idea of the show was brought to Jiangsu Television by veteran television producer Wang Peijie, who worked in collaboration with Columbia University - educated Xing Wenning. The pair drew inspiration from the Taken Out format, however when the rights for that show were instead won by a rival network, If You Are the One was launched instead. Wang said that the show is a window into Chinese society at large, and that through it, `` you can tell what China is thinking about and chasing after. '' The show 's focus was intended to be young professionals. While most of the contestants are in their twenties, there have been instances of male contestants as old as 48 appearing on the show. If You Are the One experienced great popularity in its first broadcast because of its unique approach to dating and the conversations that are often humorous with friendly insults. The show sought to ' stretch the limits ' of what could be discussed on Chinese television. Unlike Taken Out, If You Are the One does not rely on audience participation, use of catchphrases and physical attractiveness among male contestants. Controversy and revisions ( Edit ) In the first half of 2010, the show broke ratings records, with some 50 million watching every episode, an audience second only to the CCTV evening news broadcast Xinwen Lianbo. In the initial format of the show, the contestants reported things such as their annual earnings, their material possessions, etc. During this phase several contestants earned notoriety and became internet sensations. Female contestant Ma Nuo became a media interest after her controversial remarks to a male contestant that she would `` prefer to cry in a BMW '' than laugh riding on the back of a bicycle. One male contestant, a son of a businessman, was rejected by all 24 women on one episode for egregiously showing off his sports cars and bank statements instead of his life and interests. There have been three different male contestants who have lost the show in the beginning when the female contestants first study the male. Both controversial contestants were some of the most - talked - about people in Chinese entertainment. In addition, concerns were raised that some of the contestants on the show were not who they said they were, and that the TV station was ' planting ' contestants to make controversial remarks to increase ratings. Chinese authorities looked upon the show unfavourably, asserting that it was spreading the ' wrong values '. State media editorialized against the show on television, in print, and online. Six months after the show first aired, officials from the State Administration of Radio, Film and Television stepped in to regulate the show. From that point forward, Fei Cheng Wu Rao was to curb mentions of financial wealth and sex, and a third host was added : a party school psychology teacher named Huang Han, who was seen to ' balance ' the show to make it more grounded and less controversial as well as adding more banter between the three hosts. A wholesale replacement of the contestant pool with more tame individuals followed. The revised program scrubbed contestant information such as bank account information and salaries etc. Also omitted is the ' final opinions ' on a departing male contestant from the women ; previously this part of the show was especially prone to pointed insults and ridicule. Moreover, the original reel of the show must undergo heavy editing before airing depending on length and number of contestants present. Despite the changed format, the show remains extremely popular. 2016 ( Edit ) In January 2016, as a result of a Chinese judge ruling that the show 's name `` Fei Cheng Wu Rao '' infringed another individual 's copyright who owned the same name as the show, the producers temporarily changed the name of the show to `` Yuan Lai Fei Cheng Wu Rao '' ( although the English name seems to have stayed the same ). Jiangsu Television station has promised to appeal the ruling. Between November 19 to December 10, 2016, a series of specials titled `` 1vs24 '' was aired where the roles of the genders were reversed with 24 Males taking to the podiums to face a single woman. The gameplay of the special episodes was the same as the normal episodes. Another series of 1vs24 specials was aired between March 4 to March 25, 2017. On December 31, 2016, the Guangdong High Court overturned the decision on appeal by ruling that `` Fei Cheng Wu Rao '' did not infringe on another individual 's copyrights and therefore the producers changed the name of the show back to `` Fei Cheng Wu Rao '' 2017 revision ( Edit ) Main article : If You Are the One ( 2017 game show ) On April 1, 2017. Jiangsu Television announced that the final episode of If You Are The One in the original format had aired on March 25 with the filming of shows suspended since January, announcing a temporary suspension of the show as it undergoes reformatting for a relaunch late in May. Meng Fei will continue as host of the revised format of the show. The revised version was first aired on May 13, 2017. Premise ( Edit ) Twenty - four women stand in an arc, each behind a podium with a light that they initially turn on. The women face a single man, who chooses one of them as his `` heartbeat girl '' ( simplified Chinese : 心动 女生 ) from sight alone before any conversation between the women and the single man has taken place. His choice of `` heartbeat girl '' is initially known only to himself and the host of the programme - although there has been one instance where this has been revealed soon after. The single man uses two or three video clips to reveal some personal information such as occupation, interests, love history and friends ' opinions. During each video clip, each of the women decides whether or not he is still `` date - worthy '' in her opinion by keeping her light on or turning it off. The contestants, psychologists and host frequently exchange banter with each other when video clips are n't being shown. If a girl does n't like the man, she will turn her light off ( followed by a sound cue ). If, after all the videos have been played, there are more than two girls still with lights on, the man goes and turns off some of those lights, choosing only two of the remaining girls to come up on stage as finalists. After that, the identity of the man 's `` heartbeat girl '' is revealed. She too is invited onto the stage ( if not already there ) as a finalist. A new procedural option ( simplified Chinese : 爆 灯 ; literally : `` burst light '' ), enabling a woman to signal a special interest in the man, was introduced to the programme in the episode broadcast on 20 October 2012. It can be activated only once per round, and is heralded by a `` smashing '' sound cue, followed by a show of pulsating hearts, along with the number of the woman who `` burst the light '', on display screens around the studio. It is essentially the opposite of turning the podium light off ; instead, a woman who `` bursts the light '' is choosing to signal her interest in the man demonstratively rather than just passively leaving her light on. If a woman has activated the `` burst light '', her light can not be turned off ; instead, her light changes to a pulsating heart display, and she is guaranteed a place as a finalist at the end of the round. If a woman has activated the `` burst light '', she is now invited onto the stage as a finalist. Thus, there can end up being two, three or four women on the stage as finalists. The man puts to the finalists a question that he chooses from a set menu of queries. Following that, he can put to the finalists an original question of his own. After that, if one of the finalists had `` burst the light '', she is given an opportunity to explain her interest in the man and why she should be chosen. If the man elects to take one of the finalists who had shown interest in him ( i.e., had n't turned her light off ), he walks to her, takes her hand, and they depart for a presumed future date. The man may insist on his `` heartbeat girl '' even if she had turned her light off. In that case, the other finalists are dismissed back to their podiums, and the man is given an opportunity to win his `` heartbeat girl '' over. She may accept him as her date and depart with him, or reject him and return to her podium. Occasionally, a man elects to choose none of the finalists and to depart alone. The post-game interview appears with the man alone, or with him and his chosen girl if he is `` successful ''. Songs featured on the show ( Edit ) The introduction song when a male contestant enters the stage is Jean - Roch 's `` Can You Feel It '' ( Big Ali Edit ). The girls make their entrance to Jessie J, Ariana Grande and Nicki Minaj 's `` Bang Bang ''. Previous songs included : Avril Lavigne 's `` Girlfriend '' Madonna 's `` Give Me All Your Luvin ' '' If the male contestant has 0 / 24 lights left, Carl Orff 's `` O Fortuna - Carmina Burana '' is played. If the male contestant leaves without a date, Eason Chan 's ( 陈奕迅 ) `` Eliminate '' ( `` 淘汰 '' ) plays. Previous songs included : Fish Leong 's ( ' 可惜 不是 你 ' ) `` Sadly, it 's not you '' A-Lin 's ( ' 離開 的 時候 ' ) `` Time to leave '' When two finalist girls walk the catwalk, the song `` Gee '' by Korean girl group Girls ' Generation ( 소녀 시대 ) plays. When the burst light girl walks the catwalk, the song `` Hush '' by Korean girl group Miss A ( 미쓰 에이 ) plays. This was formerly `` I LOVE YOU '' by 2NE1. If the favourite girl is not one of the two finalists, she will walk down the catwalk to a swing beat. If the two finalists are not chosen ( i.e. the contestant insists on the favorite girl ), `` Real Man '' ( 大丈夫 ) by Taiwanese pop singer Jolin Tsai ( 蔡依林 ) plays. This was formerly `` Goodbye bye bye '' by Elva Hsiao ( 蕭亞軒 ). A matched couple leave to the tune of `` You 're The Right One '' ( `` 你 是 对 的 人 '' ) by Lee Junho ( 이준호 ) featuring Qi Wei ( 戚薇 ), or `` Finally waited for you '' ( `` 終於 等到 你 '' ) by Jane Zhang ( 張靚穎 ). Previous songs included : `` Liang Shanbo and Juliet '' ( `` 梁山 伯 与 朱丽叶 '' ) by Genie Chuo ( 卓文萱 ) featuring Gary Cao ( 曹格 ), `` Beautiful Love '' by Tanya Chua ( 蔡健雅 ) `` Romance '' by Jiang Yu Chen ( 江語晨 ) `` Everybody '' by Ingrid Michaelson The outro song with the credits is `` One Step Forward '' ( 往 前 一步 ) by Meng Fei.
