Rosmei revealed the cover and dust jacket designs for their English release of Art Thou Ailing?, a danmei novel series by Ru Si Wo Wen. The release also comes with a small postcard as a bonus with each of the two total volumes, Vol. 1 and Vol. 2 (pictured below).
Rosmei originally announced their license for this series (among others) in October 2024. Art Thou Ailing? is one of several series that Rosmei plans to release digitally through a collaboration with the ePUB platform Publang. Any upcoming digital releases by the publisher will likely only be available to purchase via the Publang site; rather than being available on all standard platforms such as Kindle, NOOK, etc.
No release dates have been announced for either volume in the series, but Rosmei stated in a reply to a Twitter/X comment that they aim to launch preorders by the end of 2025. Rosmei’s reply is quoted below:
[Redacted]:
So beautiful! Thank you for giving them breathing dust-jackets on top of the gorgeous covers! 😍
Your progress page states the translation is completed, so now when the covers are too, can we expect pre-orders soon? 👀Rosmei Official Twitter/X:
The preorder of the first volume is scheduled later this year
All international buyers must go through Group Orders, forwarding services, or independent partnered retailers, as Rosmei’s publishing license only allows them to sell within Singapore. Their books are not available for purchase at North American retailers such Barnes & Noble, Indigo/Chapters, or Amazon.
Art Thou Ailing? (君有疾否), also known as Jun You Ji Fou or JYJF, is a danmei novel series by author Ru Si Wo Wen. It was originally serialized on jjwxc starting in 2016, and ran for 89 chapters (plus 3 Extras). It has inspired an audio drama, available in Chinese on MissEvan.
Rosmei does not provide summaries for any of their licensed series. The below series summary is taken from DanmeiNews’ series catalogue entry:
For the sake of a political scheme, the top-ranking military official Chu Mingyun pretends to be in love with his long-time rival, a top-ranking civil official named Su Shiyu. However, it doesn’t take long for true lovesickness to take root.
