On May 15, 2006, it was revamped to become the first free newspaper of Nanjing Metro.[6] In August 2012, five editors from the Oriental Guardian were suspended for the paper's critical coverage of former Olympic champion Liu Xiang's injury cover-up.[7]

On June 1, 2020, Oriental Guardian ceased publication.[8]
