    We've all been there. You're loving a C-drama, completely invested in the characters and the story… and then THAT storyline happens. Suddenly, you're questioning the writers, the characters and possibly your own life choices. 😂


    This week, I'm joined by Lisa from Well.Behaved.Ahjummas to talk about some of the most frustrating C-drama plotlines.


    From questionable writing choices to storylines that test our patience, we're getting into the things that can turn an otherwise enjoyable drama into a rather exasperating experience.


    Why do some plotlines make us want to scream at the screen? Can a frustrating storyline ruin an entire drama? And just how much patience should a viewer be expected to have?


    Grab your favourite drink and join us for a discussion full of drama, opinions and a little bit of frustration!

    It's time to dive into Spring of the Blade!


    I'm joined by Reyshilmarie (@reshilmarie) to discuss this drama, share our thoughts and opinions, and get into what worked for us (and perhaps what didn't!).


    We start with a spoiler-free section, where we cover all the drama details, including the cast, and share our general thoughts without giving anything away. I'll give a clear warning before we move into the spoiler discussion, where we can really get into the story!


    So, was Spring of the Blade worth watching? Did the story deliver? And where do we stand on its characters and overall execution?


    Join us for a C-drama chat filled with thoughts, opinions and plenty to discuss!

    Thank you to Reyshilmarie for joining me!

    It's time for The Tea & The Teasers – October 2026! 🍵


    From Where the Mask Ends to Small Town Remedy, I'm chatting about the C-dramas currently on my watchlist, what I'm absolutely loving, what's keeping me hooked, and what might be getting left behind. Because let's be honest, sometimes a drama just isn't giving what we hoped it would!


    Then we're looking ahead to November, diving into the upcoming C-dramas rumoured to be on their way and discussing which ones have already caught my attention. Are there any new dramas that could be making their way onto my watchlist? And which ones have me feeling cautiously optimistic?


    Grab your favourite drink, get comfy, and join me for a catch-up full of current watches, drama thoughts, and a little bit of speculation about what's coming next!

    🍵 This week on Tea & Soju, Liliana is joined by special guest Angie to chat about the historical C-drama Against the Current!


    At its heart, this is a story about women navigating the challenges, expectations and restrictions placed upon them by the world around them. We're discussing the struggles they face, their journeys towards finding their own place, and the strength it takes to push back against the current.


    Of course, there's also a little romance along the way! ❤️ But with so much more to explore, we're looking at how the relationships, characters and wider themes come together to tell this story.

    What did we think of the drama's portrayal of women's struggles? How did we feel about the characters and their journeys? And did Against the Current manage to leave a lasting impression on us?

    Join us as we share our thoughts, opinions and takeaways in another Tea & Soju drama review!


    Make yourself a cuppa, get comfy, and come join the conversation!

    It's time to roll out the red carpet! 🏆✨


    In this episode of Tea & Soju, the Drama Trio is building its very own Cdrama Actors Hall of Fame! Liliana, Jess and Caitlin are bringing their picks to the table and making the case for which Chinese actors deserve a place among the greats.


    But with three drama fans, plenty of opinions and only so much room in the Hall of Fame, who will make the cut? Who will get snubbed? And will we actually agree on anything? 👀


    Expect passionate arguments, questionable decisions, plenty of actor appreciation and all the Cdrama fangirling you've come to expect from us.

    🏆 Who would YOU induct into the Cdrama Actors Hall of Fame? Let us know!

    Grab your favourite drink and join us for another cosy chat with Tea & Soju. 🍵
