Tea And Soju - A C-drama Podcast

The Early Spring came, conquered, and completely took over our lives! 🌸

This week, on Tea & Soju I am joined by guests Carol (Kdramasmusings) & Viv (Vivlikes), to dive into one of the dramas that had us hooked from beginning to end. We talk about everything we loved (and maybe a few things we didn't) as we look back at The Early Spring.
From unforgettable moments and favourite characters to the relationships that had us completely invested, we're breaking it all down in this special review episode!
Did The Early Spring live up to the hype? Let's get into it!

Somehow, Tea & Soju is officially four years old! In this special solo episode, I’m taking a little trip down memory lane — from what I thought the podcast would be when I started it, to what it has become today.

I’m also sharing some of my favourite episodes and memories from the last four years, plus answering your questions and hearing what the Tea & Soju community has to say.

Thank you for being part of this little C-drama corner of the internet for the last four years. 💚
Grab your tea (or soju!) and come celebrate with me!

From modern romances to historical dramas, let’s have a little catch-up on what’s currently on my screen.
Grab your tea, pour your soju, and let’s chat dramas! 🍵🥂

There are some things nobody tells you when you fall down the C-drama rabbit hole — like why you absolutely cannot trust a drama poster, when it's okay to give up on a 40-episode commitment, how to recognise the warning signs of impending emotional damage, and why a drama being “good” doesn't necessarily mean you're going to enjoy it.

So this week, I'm sharing my C-drama survival guide: the things I wish someone had told me when I first started watching.
From ratings to filler, political plots, and knowing when to just WALK AWAY… let's talk about everything I've learned after years of watching C-dramas.
And because I know I'm not the only one who's learned some of these lessons the hard way — what would YOU add to the C-drama survival guide? 🍵

Come hang out with me and let's survive the C-drama rabbit hole together! 💕

Halfway through 2026, it’s time to look back at all the C-dramas I’ve watched so far and, more importantly, the ones that have stolen my heart! 💕
In this episode, I’m sharing my favourite dramas of the year so far, the characters I’m still thinking about, the romances that had me invested, and the shows that have earned a permanent spot in my drama-loving heart.
From Pursuit of Jade and Love Between Lines to Bloom Life and The First Jasmine, let’s talk about the dramas that have made 2026 such a fun year for watching C-dramas.
And because this is Tea & Soju, expect plenty of opinions, questionable levels of attachment to fictional characters, and probably a few “I was NOT prepared for this” moments. 😂
🍵 What has been YOUR favourite C-drama of 2026 so far? Let me know!
Grab your tea, pour your soju, and let’s chat dramas!
