In this week's episode I am joined by guests Laura and Becky, to review the 2025 Cdrama "The First Frost", staring Zhang Ruo Nan and Bai Jingting.

This drama was highly anticipated by many, based on the novel of the same name, The First Frost follows the story of Sang Yan (the brother from Hidden Love) and his childhood love Wen Yifan. Although this cdrama runs parallel to Hidden Love, it is a different story with a much darker theme surrounding it.

In this deep dive we discuss general non spoiler thoughts about this drama, as well as spoiler thoughts up to episode 10. We had so MANY notes, and therefore had to divide this episode into 2 parts.

Join us and relive this drama with us.

In this week’s episode I sit down to review the 2025 Chinese Drama ‘Moonlight Mystique’, staring Bai Lu and Ao Ruipeng. 

This drama is a xianxia, so it should’ve have  been a slam dunk for me, but the writing left a little bit to be desired for. Even with that in mind, I still overall enjoyed the drama. So join me as I ran through what I liked, what I didn’t, and how I think this is one Bai Lu best roles, even if the drama isn’t the best.

In this weeks episode we are dipping into Kdramland. I am joined by Caitling (nosleep4dramas) and Becky (dontsuerebecca, Drama Detours), and together the 3 of us review “When The Phone Rings”, staring Yoo Yeon Seok and Chae Soo Bin.

This drama came to us at the end of 2024, and quickly grabbed many viewers attentions, however as the story went on, more plotholes were found, and the ending left a lot of us thinking “what the hell just happened?”

Join us as we chat great chemistry, some poor writing choices and the possibly right frame of mind to watch this drama in.
