If you like your mysteries dark, your characters complicated, and your brain a little scrambled by the end of a drama, Nine Puzzles might be exactly what you’re looking for.

If you’re a fan of heartfelt romance with a dash of nostalgia, Hidden Love is an absolute must-watch. This drama beautifully captures the essence of first love, slow-burning emotions, and the kind of longing that lingers long after the screen fades to black. At its core, Hidden Love is built on some of the most beloved romance tropes—childhood crush, age gap romance, slow burn, and unrequited love (that turns out to be not-so-unrequited after all). But instead of feeling cliché, these elements are woven together in a way that feels fresh, natural, and touches the right chords.

It’s a story of love that starts in the quiet corners of everyday life—hidden glances, a fluttering heart, and the small yet significant moments that build a connection. The drama takes its time, allowing us to feel every ounce of Sang Zhi’s youthful admiration for Duan Jiaxu, a boy who was once just her brother’s best friend but slowly became her whole world. And while many dramas rely on grand declarations, Hidden Love thrives in its subtlety. It’s the kind of love that sneaks up on you, just as it does for the characters. The stry follows Sang Zhi, a bright and somewhat mischievous girl who develops a quiet crush on her older brother’s best friend, Duan Jiaxu. To her, he is the warm and gentle presence who unknowingly becomes the center of her world. However, with their age gap and the natural course of life pulling them in different directions, her feelings remain tucked away—hidden, just as the title suggests.

Years later, fate brings them together again, but this time, the dynamic has shifted. Sang Zhi is no longer just a little sister figure in the background—she’s grown into an independent young woman, and Jiaxu starts seeing her in a completely new light. What follows is a beautifully paced journey of friendship, rediscovery, and a love that blooms organically over time, making every step of their relationship feel authentic and deeply moving.

Sang Zhi (Zhao Lusi) is a breath of fresh air—playful yet sensitive, strong-willed yet deeply emotional. We see her grow from a spirited teenager with a secret crush into a confident young woman who knows what she wants. What makes her journey so compelling is how natural and relatable it feels. She doesn’t rush into love or force her feelings onto Duan Jiaxu; instead, she lets time and circumstances shape her emotions, allowing them to mature alongside her. Zhao Lusi’s portrayal is effortlessly charming, capturing the nuances of Sang Zhi’s emotions... her quiet yearning, her jealousy, her heartbreak, and, ultimately, her courage in pursuing what she wants.

Duan Jiaxu (Chen Zheyuan) is the perfect blend of warmth and restraint. He starts as the gentle, caring older brother figure who dotes on Sang Zhi without a second thought, but as time passes, we witness his internal conflict. He’s always been careful, maintaining his distance out of respect for her age and his own past struggles. However, as he begins to see her differently, his hesitation and eventual realization make his character arc incredibly satisfying. Chen Zheyuan brings an understated intensity to the role, making every small shift in his emotions... his protectiveness, his self-doubt, his growing affection, feel utterly believable.

And then, of course, there’s Sang Yan (Victor Ma), Sang Zhi’s hilarious yet fiercely protective older brother. His role might seem secondary, but he’s one of the most memorable parts of the drama. As much as he bickers with Sang Zhi, his love for her is undeniable. His reaction to the shifting dynamic between Sang Zhi and Jiaxu adds both humor and heartfelt moments to the story. Beneath his exasperation lies genuine care, and watching him slowly come to terms with his sister’s feelings is one of the drama’s more touching aspects.

Each of these characters grows in their own way—Sang Zhi learns to stand up for her love, Jiaxu learns to let go of his fears and embrace happiness, and Sang Yan learns that no matter how much he wants to shield his sister, she will find her own path. It’s this character-driven storytelling that makes Hidden Love so deeply engaging.

When Life Gives You Tangerines might sound like the title of a breezy, feel good romcom, but don’t be fooled. This drama is all about heart and soul, and everything in between. It is a gentle reminder that life rarely gives us what we expect. It is a little reminder that life hands us little moments that are bittersweet, messy, beautiful and it’s up to us to make something of them. Sometimes, what we make is a new beginning. Sometimes, it can lead us to peace. And sometimes, it’s a love you didn’t even consider but absolutely needed.

Now, before we go further, let me issue a very important warning:

At the heart of When Life Gives You Tangerines is Yang Gwan-Shik, played with remarkable nuance by Park Bo-gum. Gwan-Shik isn’t flashy, doesn’t deliver grand declarations, and rarely makes a scene. But in a world where love is often loud and performative, his quiet loyalty, emotional steadiness, and thoughtful gestures feel like a revolution. He listens more than he speaks. He notices. He remembers. He adapts. Watching Gwan-Shik love is like watching someone water a plant daily… small actions that eventually bloom into something undeniable. He is the kind of character that could easily come off as too perfect or little dull in the hands of a less capable actor, but Park Bo-gum brings a gentle gravitas that makes you believe every moment. He’s a soft place to land; not just for the woman he loves but for the audience too. Then there’s IU, effortlessly stepping into the role of a woman grappling with the weight of expectation, regret, and hope. She doesn’t need to cry in every scene to show you heartbreak. Sometimes, it’s in the way she looks at a closed door, or the way she hesitates before saying something she’s been holding in for years. Her character arc is one of self-forgiveness and quiet courage and IU’s performance brings grace to Oh Ae-Sun’s character.

One standout dynamic in the series is the relationship between Gwan-Shik and his daughter. It’s tender without being overly sentimental. He isn’t trying to be a “cool dad”, he is just trying to be a good one. His love sets the benchmark for the kind of partner he hopes she finds, without ever becoming overbearing.

The cast as a whole is uniformly excellent, with no jarring missteps. Every supporting role feels purposeful. Together, they build a world where quiet moments speak volumes, and restraint is a strength, not a flaw.
What makes this drama shine isn’t just its male lead, though he does carry a significant chunk of emotional weight. It’s the way the story trusts its audience to slow down. There’s no rush here. No overblown conflict or endless misunderstandings. Just quiet tension, earned resolutions, and characters that feel like people you know I your real life. The back-and-forth timeline is one of the drama’s greatest strengths. It doesn’t confuse or disrupt. Instead, it mirrors how people’s memory works… How we return to the past, not always in pain, but to make sense of the present. And every time the story loops back, it adds more meaning.


Hidden Love was one of my first Chinese drama experiences, and it is still a favorite of mine. Victor Ma played Sang Yan, the older brother of the female protagonist, and I remember telling my friend that I wanted to learn about Sang Yan’s story. This spin-off finally gives us his long-anticipated story—a light-hearted yet emotionally intense romance set amidst the wistfulness of what might have been.

The First Frost uses my favorite second-chance and childhood-crush tropes. Sang Yan’s chemistry with his love, Wen Yifan, is filled with tension, camaraderie, and undeniable chemistry, and each scene between the two is compelling. The romance in Hidden Love is uncomplicated, but The First Frost delves into self-discovery, timing, and the bittersweetness of growing up.

The story follows Sang Yan and his childhood friend, Wen Yifan, played by Zhang Ruonan. Their dynamic is always one of teasing and unexpressed feelings. It is a platonic connection that complicates when they fall out of touch, then meet again at a point where you least expect it. The tension between what could have been and what still might be keeps you watching, so when they finally reunite, it is all the sweeter. Unlike the first-love sweetness of Hidden Love, this series explores maturity, emotional barriers, and the challenge of confronting long-suppressed feelings. It’s about timing—too soon, almost lost, and when two people finally meet. With missed chances, tender moments, and fiery arguments, The First Frost is a realistic yet powerfully romantic story that will have you cheering on Sang Yan’s happiness, even when he claims he doesn’t need it.

At the center of The First Frost is Sang Yan, played by Bai Jingting, who brings to perfect life the witty and self-assured yet emotionally guarded character we first saw in Hidden Love. In the first series, he was the protective, sometimes exasperated older brother. Here, we get to see his own vulnerabilities, regrets, and unspoken desires. His journey is richly satisfying—from the lovestruck youth to the one left behind, and then to the one who gets his first love back. We get to know a wiser, emotionally complex Sang Yan, whose teasing conceals his own issues with love and timing. The drama picks up where the charming, quick-witted Sang Yan of Hidden Love left off, now living in adulthood. While he seemed carefree before, this story peels back his layers to expose the emotional depth behind his teasing and sarcasm.

For those who, like me, adored Victor Ma’s portrayal of Sang Yan in Hidden Love, it’s impossible not to miss him here. His naturalness and scene-stealing presence made him stand out. But Bai Jingting does a great job of carrying on the spirit of Sang Yan, delivering a more mature but still playful interpretation of the character we fell in love with. Opposite him, Zhang Ruonan delivers a beautiful performance, bringing quiet strength to the story. Her character has loved Sang Yan for years but had to leave him behind for heart-wrenching reasons. She undergoes her own journey—one of self-worth and moving on—making the two of them getting back together all the more fulfilling. Their chemistry is palpable, with lingering eye contact, banter, and emotional struggles that make the love story feel true and earned. It’s a romance founded on history, heartache, and ultimately, on healing.

The performances in The First Frost truly bring the story to life. Bai Jingting gets into the role of Sang Yan so naturally, both his charismatic, teasing side and his hidden emotional issues coming to the surface. He has you in hysterics with his sharp comebacks, yet he tugs on your heartstrings when his defenses begin to crumble. His interpretation relies so much on Sang Yan’s growth, regret, and emotional depth, so his journey to love is all the more poignant.

The direction is responsible for keeping this drama so gripping. The story is slow-building yet gripping, with emotion accumulating rather than resorting to forced dramatic confrontations. Nostalgic flashbacks, soft focus, and lingering close-ups create an intimate atmosphere, so that every second between the leads is all the more poignant. The cinematography is stunning in capturing the progression of their romance—from carefree memories of youth to the weight of pent-up emotion in adulthood.

And what is a drama without a good OST? The First Frost’s soundtrack is equally apt for its bittersweet, heartwarming mood. It may not have as iconic an OST as Hidden Love’s Forever Star or I Have Someone I Like, but the tracks here bring out the same feelings of wistfulness, love, and fate. The soft, lilting tunes contribute to the emotional beats of the narrative, so that you recall them long after the episode ends.

What is so compelling about this drama is the balance it strikes between nostalgia, humor, and emotional depth. We get to see Sang Yan’s gentler side, something that was just hinted at in Hidden Love, so his arc is all the more gratifying. Their dynamic is filled with years of pent-up feelings, so each moment is rich and full of significance.

For those who love slow-burn romance with a touch of angst and heartwarming moments, this drama is a treat. It is not better than Hidden Love to me, but it is still a beautifully narrated love story that lingers with you long after the final episode.

If you are into the K-Drama or Asian Drama scene, I think you have heard of this series already. It has the audience on tenterhooks ever since it dropped on Netflix. When the Phone Rings is a suspenseful series that keeps viewers on the edge of their seats with its mysterious plot line and characters that have depth. The series blends psychological thriller elements with a lot of family drama, though not without a few missteps in its narrative and execution.



The drama starts with an unexpected phone call that changes the lives of the characters, triggering a chain of events that lead them to uncover secrets, confront their pasts, and face their deepest fears. Chae Soo-bin as Hong Hee-joo is central to the unravelling of the mystery, delivering a captivating performance as a woman caught in a dangerous web of lies, conspiracy and their consequences. The premise initially intrigues the audience with the strong mysterious Baek Sa-eon and gentle and emotional Hong Hee-joo. 

However, while the show keeps you guessing, there are a few moments where the story feels convoluted, particularly in the later episodes, where plot twists may appear forced or less cohesive. Some unresolved threads left viewers wondering about the show’s intended message, making it harder to fully connect with the story by the end.

While the show starts strong, the plot eventually begins to stumble in certain areas. Several key moments appear too convenient or lack conviction, especially regarding character reactions. There are instances where Yoo Yeon-seok’s Baek Sa-eon seem surprisingly oblivious to what’s going on around him. Some of their decisions often feel out of place or unrealistic, making them appear too “dumb” to notice or understand what’s happening. This undermines the suspense and weakens the overall narrative.

The performances of the cast are undoubtedly one of the drama’s strongest points. Chae Soo-bin’s portrayal of Hong Hee-joo is gripping, capturing the internal struggles of her character with depth and subtlety. Yoo Yeon-seok as Baek Sa-eon delivers a nuanced performance, bringing complexity to his character’s journey of self-discovery and guilt. Heo Nam-Joon shines as Ji Sang-woo, offering moments of camaraderie and strength that resonate with viewers. Jang Gyu-ri as Na Yu-ri and Han Jae-Yi as Hong In-a both bring in some stability among all the volatile characters around them and with standout performances that add layers to the story. The chemistry between the cast, particularly between Chae Soo-bin and Yoo Yeon-seok, is palpable, making their complex relationship dynamic one of the most compelling aspects of the drama.

So, tell me, did you folks enjoy the show?

Overall Rating: ★★★★☆ (4/5 stars)

'Fall into Your Smile' delivers a memorable viewing experience, inspiring audiences with its uplifting message about sportsmanship, empathy, and triumph over cyberbullying.

 

Asian dramas have taken the world by storm; K-dramas in particular. One that stands out as a must-watch for any Asian drama enthusiast is "Healer." If you are new to the world of K-dramas (or Asian Dramas) I need to put a disclaimer for you - this one is going to ruin you for a while. I know, because I started my Asian Drama journey with Healer and it took me a while to like anything else. It is THAT good. 

“Healer” is an action-packed series with an amazing romance running in parallel. It is sure to keep you hooked from the very first episode. Whether you are a newbie to this world of dramas, or a veteran - “Healer” is a must watch for you and I will give you 5 reasons why without too many spoilers!

1. Unconventional Protagonists: 

Our male protagonist is Seo Jung Hoo (played by Ji Chang-Wook) is a chameleon of sorts. He is a ‘night courier’ who runs unconventional errands for money. At first glance, he is not your knight is shining armour. But he is someone who plays any role required convincingly - from the night courier who is an expert in martial arts to a scaredy-cat reporter to a son trying to find out about his past. Our female protagonist is Chae Young Shin (played by Park Min-Young) is a fiery but ‘failed’ reporter. She aspires to be the best yet puts other people’s safety before her own aspirations. She is not fearless, but she is someone who do what is necessary despite her fears.

2. Well-Developed Characters:

It is not just our protagonists and antagonists that are well developed in the series. Each character brings in something to the plot. 

For instance, Kim Moon-Ho (played by Yoo Ji-Tae) is an ace reporter who refuses to access certain resources that are available to him because his sense of honour tell him that those resources are tainted. He is haunted by the past and wants to do what’s best for the victims even if it means that he has to go up against those close to him. Then there is the character of Chae Chi-Soo (played by Park Sang-Myeon) who through his actions show how blood doesn’t matter to be a family. His kind moments with his adoptive daughter will touch the audiences heart and ultimately is what shaped our female protagonist. 

Overall, there is a diverse set of characters who add depth to the over all plot.

3. Intriguing Plot and Thrilling Action:

The story revolves around secrets from the past of a group of friends, that not only affect the cast of characters in the present, but also the political situation of the country. As the characters dig up the secrets, they realise what they are really dealing with. The fight scenes involving Ji Chang-Wook are stylish and exciting enough to make you want to see more action sequences. The romance element of the story really works because of the chemistry between the characters is palpable as they really compliment each other.

4. Heartwarming Romance:

If the action sequences and the mystery angle of the plot gets your blood roaring, the romance in the series will get your heart thumping. If you are someone who loves ‘love-at-first-sight’ tropes, only then maybe this may not be your cup of tea. Our protagonists fall for each other slowly and steadily. They build a camaraderie that is bot fun and sweet. Their personalities are so different, yet similar at places that really matter. As a viewer, you will hoot and cheer for them to be together.

5. Memorable Soundtrack:

I don’t think I will ever be able to listen to ‘Eternal Love by MLTR’ and not think of this series ever again. Other than that ‘I will protect you by Ji Chang-wook’, ‘You by BEN’ and the Healer theme song just adds to the overall ambience of the series in a way that it is impossible to separate them.

Bonus Reason: Ji Chang-Wook! Yes he is easy on the eyes as most asian drama heroes are. The reason why I like him is because he is an expert at micro-expressions. Small things that he does in his acting really make you involved in the story telling. 

“Healer” is a favourite among K-Drama enthusiasts because everything about the series just falls into place to take the audience on a journey of action, thrills, heartbreak and love. I assure you that once you start the series, you will not be able to stop. Happy binge-watching!

I started watching Law & Order: Special Victims Unit after reading Piu’s post about her favourite TV shows. And once I started watching, I was hooked!

SVU, as the name suggests, is about special victims and mostly known as the sex crimes unit. In the first season we find out that it is a unit made up of agents who join it voluntarily. Once you know that, and watch a few of the episodes, you have a certain amount of respect for the agents who work there. It is not easy to handle the cases that they handle and then go back to normal life. It is no wonder that most of the agents who work there are single. After the kind of crimes, they deal with every day – the fact that some of them still believe in decent humans is nothing but a wonder to me.

As the seasons’ progressed, I collected quite a few favourite characters. Olivia Benson, the face of the series, is an amazing character. The amount of compassion she has for each victim, the way she turns up at her job day after day with all heart is really amazing! There’s Odafin ‘Fin’ Tutuola who his just there, every day, doing his job and a background that he doesn’t talk much about. Then there is Dominick Carisi who enters the scenes with an attitude that has Olivia Benson asking, ‘Carisi, remind me why you're SVU, again?’

Carisi’s response was:

I worked Homicide, couple years. It's the women who get you. I mean, they're dead, but their hair's clean, they're nicely dressed, they're made up. And that means their husbands, or their boyfriends did it. It's like they knew. They knew it was coming. They don't even look surprised.

And the way he says it – it surprises you and he grows as the show progresses.

But the one character that will stay with me even after the show is over is Rafael Barba, Assistant District Attorney. Barba is introduced to the audience in Season 14 as a recurring character and then becomes a part of the main cast till Season 19.

When Barba first shows up, he is almost ruthless – with the reputation as someone who will take on the toughest cases, even the ones that no one else will touch. He slowly warms up to the SVU and develops a good friendship with Olivia Benson. He is ruthless – he pushes the members of the SVU, the suspects and sometimes even the victims to get the results that we want. At the same time, he can also be calm and composed in the courtroom. Some of my favourite scenes involves him being extremely quiet and calm when the defence attorneys are ripping the witnesses apart and using the dirtiest tricks in the book. 

I liked him from almost the beginning, but as the show progressed his character arc grew by leaps and bounds. Everyone on SVU do their best to make the world a better place by placing their faith in the victims and then fighting to put the perpetrators behind the bars. But then Barba doesn’t just do his own job but goes one step further!

In Flight Risk (Season 19, Episode 11), a flight attendant is raped by the pilot, and the company not only covers it up but forces the flight attendant to continue working with him in close quarters despite promising her otherwise. Once SVU manages to put the pilot away for rape – this is a (slightly paraphrased – as much as I can remember) discussion that Olivia Benson and Barba has shortly after:

Benson: Putting away a single pilot rapist isn’t enough?
Barba: No, it's not. The whole culture has to change. All the people who enabled Captain Carter should be in that cell with him.
Benson: Yes, they should. But unfortunately, being sexist, misogynistic pigs isn't a crime.
Barba: It should be.

Barba goes on to hold a grand jury  to charge the airline company with grand larceny. It is his way of trying to make a difference - by trying to change the law that lets people look away and pretend that nothing is wrong. He knows that it is a long shot; that he can only try and probably not be able to make such a huge change in his lifetime, yet he fights for it anyway.

If one can get paid to watch TV shows (not daily saas-bahu shows), I would be a multi-millionaire. This love affair started with Vampire Diaries; we are still passionate lovers even after 10 years. 

Disclaimer Alert: I am in no way claiming these are the best shows ever made or other shows are not good. All I want to say is that these are my favourites.

Without any delay, let’s talk about my favourite TV Series:

Modern Family: Modern Family is about three families from California trying to deal with their kids, quirky spouses, and jobs in their own unique ways.

It was a summer evening around 7 years back and I was lazily surfing the internet and came across this show. And voila; I am was in love right from the first episode of the first season. 

My most favourite episode is the Punkin Chunkin from season 3. 

And the most favorite quote from the show is….

“There are dreamers and there are realists in this world. You'd think the dreamers would find the dreamers and the realists would find the realists, but more often than not the opposite is true. You see, the dreamers need the realists to keep them from soaring too close to the sun.”

Person of Interest: Former CIA agent Reese, now presumed dead; and billionaire software genius Finch join forces as a vigilante crime-fighting team. 

Though this show was started in 2011 and ended in 2016, I saw it in 2019. And to my surprise, I loved it so much that I binged watched 103 episodes. There are very few shows where all the seasons are well made, this is one of them. 

My favourite quote from the show is….

"Maybe it's up to me to do what the good people can't. Or maybe there are no good people. Maybe there are only good decisions."

Law & Order: SUV: A special victims unit of NYPD detectives solve sexual assault, child abuse, and rape cases based on real crimes. 

This show is on its 22nd season and I have seen all the episodes of all 22 seasons. This is one of the shows which is still able to hold its good storyline even after so many episodes. 

My favourite quote from the show is….

“Some things, you can put them behind you…but they do change you.”

Evil: Psychologist Kristen Bouchard reluctantly works together with David Acosta, a priest in training, to investigate and find a logical explanation for every supernatural occurrence within the Church.

This show gives an X-Files vibe and I love the grey area it’s exploring. And I love Mike Colter. 

My favourite quote from the show is….

“There’s no such thing as good and evil, black and white. There’s only gray. There’s only what a man can stand.”

Billions: This Showtime drama pits billionaire hedge-fund manager Bobby opposite the U.S. Attorney for New York. 

This show is a character study. All the characters are very well written and well developed. 

My favourite quote from the show is….

“Get good at letting go, which is a different kind of freedom.”

Hannibal: Based on the Thomas Harris novels “Red Dragon” and “Hannibal,” brilliant forensic psychologist/cannibalistic serial killer Hannibal Lecter.

This show portrays serial killing like art and I simply loved it (FYI, I am not a serial killer, not even one in making).

My favourite quote from the show is….

“An abnormal reaction to an abnormal situation is a normal behaviour.”

Mindhunter: This crime drama follows two FBI agents who essentially write the book on criminal profiling in the late 1970s by interviewing serial killers. 

Well, I am fascinated by serial killers and this show is brilliant, to say the least. This show is based on a time when the “Serial Killer” term was not even coined.

My favourite quote from the show is….

"We're All Our Own Prisons. We Are Each Our Own Wardens. We Do Our Own Time. Prison Is In Your Mind."

Honorable Mentions: 

The Handmaid's Tale, Prison Break, 24, Mad Men, The Marvelous Mrs. Maisel, The Family Man, Dark, House of Cards, Paatal Lok, American Crime Story, Ted Lasso, Sherlock, The Americans, and many more. 

Happy Watching
