In the Song dynasty, tea became a ritual of grace among scholar-officials. At gatherings, they perfected every detail: tea’s color, water’s source, the shape of cups, the stillness of the room. Tea was more than a drink; it was cultured silence, shared thought, and refined presence. 🎨 《文會圖》宋徽宗

Hope everyone is having a very Happy Holidays! Someone has posted ETU2 subbed until ep6 for you to enjoy!

Holidays can be stressful. Be gentle with yourself. Nothing has to be perfect. Being late isn't the end of the world. If you feel overwhelmed by either too many or too few people around you right now, that's ok and you are not the only one who feels that way. 💜💜💜

Again, I did not see either but it will be on the list! Good luck to both!

Did not see either but it will be on my "to watch" list. Good luck for the next round!

May I suggest that LUO YUNXI AND FANG YILUN DESERVE THE WORLD (or at minimum your vote for Whispers of Fate 🙏)

I have not seen "When Destiny Brings the Demon" So my boy, Leo, gets my vote 🥹 WoF is a visual feast ❤️

I did not see either but both look good! 👍

Zhang Tianshi, founder of the Way of the Five Pecks of Rice, stands as a pillar of Daoism’s mystical legacy. In the Eastern Han, atop Heming Mountain, he penned 24 sacred texts and communed with Taishang Laojun, earning the title "Zhengyi Zhenren". 1/2 #daoism

I did not see Filter, but it sounds interesting! Legend of Zang Hai gets my vote again!

this is rude who allowed this

I saw both and love both!!!! I love that Coroner's Diary is different than the usual dramas I see. Shadow Love was 🔥🔥🔥! This drama is special too! A strong female lead and the leading male having to play three personas of himself.

In the folktale of Mr. Dong Guo and the wolf, a scholar saves a fleeing wolf, guided by Mohist ideals of universal love. But once freed, the wolf turns on him, demanding flesh for gratitude. Seeking judgment, they ask an apricot tree and an old cow, 1/2 #folklore

I'm still searching for the right words to describe this photo…It feels like he’s in harmony with the wind

Guess I'll post this again

Take your time, Baby Boy 🥹💚

"But you still enjoy being an actor, right?" Yibo: "Of course, having more work has brought more choices in life. I think I need to rest for a while and then go back, and find the feeling of this actor again." Actor Wang Yibo will return 🙏 hope the dancer, too.

In this late Qing tapestry "Celebrating Longevity", two elders sit in a grand hall, honored by family on their birthday. Kneeling boys offer a scroll bearing a blue “shou” for longevity, encircled by five red “fu” bats, symbols of fortune. 1/2 #art #painting

#WangXian 💙❤️ #TheUntamed/ #CQL #cdrama #XiaoZhan肖战 #WangYibo王一博 #mdzs #mxtx

Zhan Zhan, you lucky man 🔥

Again, may the best drama win. No vote here. 🥲

POLL HAS CLOSED WHISPERS OF FATE VICTORIOUS thank you to everyone who voted, and especially to those last couple of votes that saved admin from a hernia. Commiserations to the nobly defeated Desire the Series

May the best drama win!

Oh noes! Why do Whispers of Fate have to go against the ABO drama ☹️ I never saw Desire, but I thought of seeing it. I am voting for WoF because Leo always gives so much in his works!

In "Elegant Gathering in the Inner Courtyard(闱中雅会图)", we glimpse a world beyond the masculine halls of scholarship: Qing dynasty gardens where women gathered in refined sisterhood. Here, poetry flowed like tea, brushes danced on silk, and each verse defied the silence imposed by 1/2 🎨 in ALT.

behind the scenes stuff that wasn't in the ep AKA two sleepy dudes try to make coffee 😂

No vote again, but both look interesting to watch. May the best drama win! 👍🏽
