  • Love it! Super well researched and the music is excellent :)

    I have learned so much about Chinese culture since finding this podcast - it has taken my enjoyment of C-dramas to the next level, as I can finally understand a lot of the cultural context I was missing out on before. more

  • I like this…

    for the brief summary style but it also comes across as a bit stiff/too news-casterish (just my opinion/not trying to be a hater— just how it sounds as a listener). If you all have time, I’d appreciate the dramas being listed in the summary too. Just a suggestion. Thanks!

  • Great info for drama watchers!

    Having loved Chinese dramas since I was little (Journey to the West 1986, anyone?), I appreciate how Karen and Cathy pick out the historical references or little cultural references that I would typically just gloss over when watching. I’m learning but also having fun listening to recaps of some of my favorite shows as well! Highly recommend!
