Day 16: Overall though, my favorite actress I watched this year is #HuYiYao ( #胡亦瑶 ) as #YunShang from the #MiniCdrama #DoubleLife (2024). Her portrayal was capable, strong, serious, yet also soft and loving. I also enjoyed her in #BoundBySin (2025), but prefer DL. #cdrama #EYDC2025 #LightAndDark

Day 16: Impossible to choose: #LiQin (李沁) in #FatedHearts, #WangYinglu (王影璐) in #TwelveLetters were notable performances, & in 2024 dramas I watched this year #SmileHu amused me to no end in #TheLoveDuel & #PyoYeJin (표예진) was delightful in #DreamingOfAFreakingFairytale. #EYDC2025 #cdrama #kdrama

Day 15: Posters - My favorite for artistry is the one @jamesdramac.bsky.social shared for #TransferGoldHairpin. My favorite for creativity is #TwelveLetters, which offers a unique visual as unique as the plot itself. My favorite for a romance poster is from #GrabYourLove. #EYDC2025 #cdrama #cdramas

#TheFirstFrost was so good. 🙏 There's still time left to vote, peeps. #cdrama #cdramas #CdramaCup2025

Day 14: #TheFirstFrost screenwriters 陈龙 ( #ChenLong ), 赵文晶 ( #ZhaoWenJing ), & 張可欣's ( #ChangKeiHsin ) script traversed so many difficult subjects with care & depth. Director #ElsieZhao (赵曦夕) from #DoubleLife did an epic job & is one whose work I would like to see more of. #EYDC2025 #cdrama

Day 13: It's extremely rare that I have one that bores me, but Melo Movie, unfortunately, did. It was too long. While it had a few nuggets of goodness to take away, it was too few. It felt like the secondary couple & ml's brother were more interesting than leads. I like slow stuff, but 🤷‍♀️. #EYDC2025

Day 12: My favorite platonic relationship was from a 2024 one & between Urabe Kanoko & Iwai Souma in #UsotokiRhetoric. They were adorable together. Both quirky & trying to survive in a world where they don't fit in well, they accept each other & are stronger together. #嘘解きレトリック #EYDC2025 #jdrama

Day 11: Less learning, more a reminder about what empathy entails. In #TheFirstFrost & #TheWhiteOliveTree behavior might seem irrational or extreme, but it's desperate self-preservation. As an outsider, one must be patient & not take the actions of a suffering person personally. #EYDC2025 #cdrama

#BloodRiver all the way! Vote peeps! #暗河传 #cdrama

Day 10: Rewatched #TheLoveDuel, #RipeForThePicking, and #SchoolNurseFiles. Often when I recommend something to someone later on, I like to rewatch to see if they are as good as I remember. These are short, so it's easy to rewatch. TLD & RFTP I'd rewatch anytime. 🥰 #EYDC2025 #cdrama #jdrama #kdrama

Day 9: Some of my top faves from past years that I watched this year are #DoubleLife #TheLoveDuel #YouAreMyLoverFriend #DreamingOfAFreakingFairyTale, & #Reset. I highly recommend them all depending on one's taste, DOFF has a small lame moment, otherwise smart/🤣. #cdrama #EYDC2025 #MiniCdrama #kdrama

Day 8: Fave 2ndary character: #MuCiLing was so fabulously unhinged! #LiDaiKun seemed to relish his role portraying him as deranged, complete with a convincingly evil laugh—a feat that's hard to do—& transforming him into a victim too, who merely wanted to be free. #cdrama #EYDC2025 #BloodRiver #暗河传

It's the 40th anniversary of Tim Curry's biggest day at the box office with the simultaneous release of Clue and Legend. Dec 13, 1985! We have 4 Curry-related books, including signed editions of @johnhatch.bsky.social's account of Clue's production. Link: mzs.press/search?keywo...

Day 7: I accidentally posted my favorite character on the wrong day, so, lucky me, I get to post him again: #SuChangHe from #BloodRiver. A light-hearted yet deadly assassin, he's an unusual front-runner for me, but was so delightful & intriguing that I want to see more. #attitude #cdrama #EYDC2025

Day 6: A drama I dropped: Changes of Heart or Honno Switch - 🤷‍♀️ #EYDC2025.

Day 5: Visually Stunning Drama: #TheFirstFrost 's fractured distortions intrigued me. #FatedHearts had beautiful swaths of theatrical light that washed across scenes & awesome costumes. I 🖤ed #BloodRiver 's stunning costumes & cgi effects & settings! #cdrama #cdramas #EYDC2025 #暗河传 #难哄 #一笑随歌

Day 5: Favorite Character: #SuChangHe from #BloodRiver amused me, intrigued me, & was a mysterious force at work in the shadows. His cavalier attitude hid his depth, his role as a supportive, strong constant for all those in Dark River who sought a new shore. 🚨 FMV #暗河传 #cdrama #EYDC2025 #cdramas

Day 4: Favorite song: #FindMyWayBackToLife by #JenniferFoster from #TheWhiteOliveTree #OST. Poignant, cutting, relatable, & emotional this song wove through the #cdrama as a reminder that we can all feel adrift, unconnected, & struggle to find our lives, our home. #EYDC2025 #Cdramas #白色橄榄树

Got my tickets! Yay! Who else is going? #JacksonWang #MagicMan2

Day 3: Favorite Actor Found: #WangXuan grabbed my attention with #GrabYourLove & kept it with #DoubleLife & #TheLoveDuel. He consistently delivers watchworthy kiss scenes. Here's hoping he receives full-length #cdrama projects to gain more experience. Might I suggest romances? #王轩 #EYDC2025 #cdramas

A little under 3 hours and counting down. #JacksonWang 's North American tour on sale. 🤞 #LA, where you at? #LosAngeles #Cpop

Day 2: Favorite Actress Discovered: #LiQin 's portrayal of #FuYixiao in #FatedHearts was fabulous! She was a badass, a beauty, as well as both a gentle & vicious person. She embodied the character so well! Brava! 👏 I'm curious to see more of her #cdrama work. #EYDC2025 #李沁 #一笑随歌

@onekdramamomma.bsky.social shared a beautiful shot from #Gemini, so I added her mention to the list. Bonus points for screen shots, peeps! Let's all enjoy this list! 😊 #cdrama #cdramas #SubmissiveMen #RavagedMen

Please submit your dramas & films for this popular category. The list only allows a few characters in the title, but this includes also depictions of male-portrayed characters as being sultry & beautiful physically as well as enjoying being submissive. #Cdrama #Jdrama #kdrama #Tdrama #TaiwaneseDrama

🚨 #FatedHearts balanced its leads giving each time to be strong & weak. In a rare yet appreciated move, it shared a man's body can be sensuous & beautiful, soft & lovely as well as it can be desirable for a man to share control of intimacy & to be at the mercy of a woman. #InTheKnees💋 #一笑随歌 #cdrama

🚨 👏 #FatedHearts used theatrical lighting beautifully. I really loved so many scenes that were nodding to constructed cineama & theatre drama lighting styles of the past. #WhenTheLightSlicesThrough #BentKissedInTheMoonlight #一笑随歌 #cdrama #FengSuige #FuYiXiao

Adding #TheWhiteOliveTree to our Introverted Characters list as the FL is a self-confessed introvert. She doesn't feel comfortable around people, and she's shy. We've got 110 dramas and counting on this list. Please feel free to submit new ones. #cdrama #cdramas #CDramaIntrovert #白色橄榄树

Indeed I do, @tinacmml.bsky.social! Tysm for adding another to the list. We have 149 and counting! Keep em coming, peeps! #JdramaFashion #jdrama #cdrama #kdrama #ThaiDrama #Tdrama #TaiwaneseDrama #fashion

Day 1: In a first, I watched mostly #cdramas. Out of a total of 37 dramas completed so far, 22 were & most were exceedingly good! I blame #WangXuan 's kisses. #EYDC2025 #cdrama #TheLoveDuel #DoubleLife #GrabYourLove #YouAreMyLoverFriend #TheFirstFrost #TwelveLetters #BloodRiver #FatedHearts #Reset

TYSM @anniedelavoye.bsky.social! Always so fun to do!

Just added #TheWhiteOliveTree to our Film, TV, & Theatre Characters list as the FL is a television reporter who records film footage. We've got 196 on this list now and counting. Please let me know if you see any that are missing! I am happy to add them. #cdrama #cdramas #CDramaJournalist #白色橄榄树

🚨 👏 #FatedHearts showed we are all human. Gender doesn't determine your skill, potential, ambition, emotions, or worth. We are all equipped to "be" however & whoever: it is only society & ourselves who place limitations. #AllBeHardAndBreak #一笑随歌 #cdrama #FengSuige #FuYiXiao

🚨 The scene framing and cinematography in #FatedHearts was so striking. I absolutely loved the camera angles and attention to space used to tell the story. #FeastForTheEyes #FramedInTheRightWay #FatedHearts #一笑随歌 #cdrama

🚨 #FatedHearts is 2 b commended for showing how society needlessly restricts women & how that in turn constricts men: their future & freedom is squashed by expectation. It put forth strength is found in choice, not through force. #ZhaoBin was exceptional as the emperor: #HeWasSpitting! #一笑随歌 #cdrama

🚨 I 爱 these scenes that show #FengSuige & #FuYiXiao cuddling. She's such a badass yet she can find someone with whom she can feel vulnerable, comforted, & small. He also offers for her to kill the person who gave her pain with her own hands, so sweet.😅🖤 #ICanBeWeakWithYou #FatedHearts #一笑随歌 #cdrama

🚨 #FuYiXiao is like "listen here, buddy, I am into you." Straight-up, no shyness. He's the shy, guarded 一. It fits their character's past. He's been hurt by loved ones & has a fragile heart; she was raised familyless by pain, so love, love is nothing to fear: dive in. 🖤 #FatedHearts #一笑随歌 #cdrama

And a new one coming up that fits perfectly for our Architect /Designer's list. #WhyIsHeStillSingle features an ML who is an #InteriorDesigner with Wallace Huo. I am curious. It just dropped on Viki and youtube. #他为什么依然单身 #cdrama List: #jdrama #kdrama #ThaiDrama #Tdrama #TaiwaneseDrama

In case you are new to the drama world. You can "Request a tv show or movie" for Viki to get. Will they ever get it? Who knows, but I keep trying! The more of us who do the better a chance we have of them getting it. You can do so at this link: #cdrama #kdrama #jdrama #TDrama

And this one goes on our Cooking, culinary arts industry list as well as fluffy! Yay! If I am missing any, please let me know. We're at 253 and counting!

This one looks so good! All I can find online are some overview videos in 30 minutes in Chinese. Maybe we can all suggest it to Viki? Also, this one goes on our E-sports list. Everyone, if you see any new e-sports/industry dramas that are missing from that list, would you let me know? We've got 97.

🚨 #FengSuige & #FuYiXiao come together in such a lovely way. After earlier sexy-hate, their touch is at first gentle, a just holding hands & each other, & there is a moment when he seems to be tearing up: A bit of a mysterious expression & an intriguing moment to me. #FatedHearts #一笑随歌 #cdrama

🚨 #FengSuige finds #FuYiXiao both comfortable & entrancing as she is similar to his beloved 妈妈. Everything about her shows that her values mirror his: how he treats people, what is important to him: family, bonds, & she fights well as well. #ToKnowAnotherLikeOnesSelf #FatedHearts #一笑随歌 #cdrama

First vote of the Bluesky #CdramaCup2025 is here!!! R1M1: Legend of the Female General v. The Best Thing Will you choose the slow burn historical epic with a cross dressing female lead, or the sweet Traditional Chinese Medicine themed romance? (vote link in post below) *REPOSTS APPRECIATED*

I didn't realize I had seen #ChenZheYuan in #MrBad many, many moons ago. 😅 Happy to see him again in #FatedHearts. I like his Fated Hearts character better & the story more overall 🖤, though Mr. Bad was super cute. A slightly more mature look looks good on him.👍 #cdrama #MyBadMrBad #一笑随歌 #我的反派男友

And if you've seen anymore #fluffy #dramas lately that need to be added to our list, please send them my way. These are for checking out and not getting damaged dramas. tysm, we're at 63 and counting. #cdrama #jdrama #kdrama

Adding #YesIAmASpy to our fluff list. It goes down easy and before you know it it's done and forgotten, but leaves a few sweet notes lingering. #Fluffy #Fluff #Cdrama #MiniCdrama

🚨 And I guess the answer is "yes!" Lucky girl. Ha, ha, but really this scene was so adorable and made it worth it to see. And that my friends is this #cdrama in a nutshell! You're welcome. #YesIAmASpy #奈何寨主不好当 #MiniCdrama #SweetSubmission #ForgettableWithSomeLovelyLittleNotesAww

🚨 And these nap scenes were so lovely. That's all I want to do nap with a pretty face next to me and snuggling me.🤣 Who doesn't want that? #YesIAmASpy #奈何寨主不好当 #SnuggleUp #PrettyBoyWhoBringsMeSweetDreams #cdrama #MiniCdrama

Started and finished #YesIAmASpy today. Not a fan of the FL character: it's the type I don't like, but she's doing it that way on purpose, so 🤷‍♀️. 🚨 No you don't need to watch it, but happy to say I got a lovely little kiss out of it. #奈何寨主不好当 #SmoochSmoochSmooch

🚨 So I was suspicious of this "好朋友" the whole time and sure enough he's awful. Heartbreaking for #FengSuige who had zero control over anything. 😢 #FatedHearts #一笑随歌 #cdrama
