The radio drama "Three-Body Problem" is officially planned by Himalayas, authorized IP of "Three-Body Universe", produced by China's top dubbing team "729 Sound Factory", and co-produced by Himalaya and Three-Body Universe. Adapted from Liu Cixin's well-known science fiction novel "The Three-Body Problem", the radio drama premiered in the Himalayas on November 30, 2019, and has been released in six seasons in the past two years.
