Dramas Over Flowers 
Just came across you and loved this podcast. I was also thrilled that you interviewed Kfangirl because I also just came across her page as well. Thanks to her I am finally watching Nirvana in Fire..something that had been on my list forever but I didn’t want to watch it by myself!!
Will look forward to hear more of your chats…though I might not be able to hear them all since there are so many dramas that you talk about which I haven’t seen yet!
Thank you!!

Hello chingu! Thank you for listening to our episode with kfangurl! Isn’t her blog amazing? We do talk about a lot of dramas and we love cross referencing them, so our episodes are filled with spoilers. It’s a minefield! XD But to make things easier on listeners, we usually timestamp our episodes and put the times in the show notes and descriptions below. Please refer to them any time you feel like we’re veering into dangerous territory and skip ahead to the next segment! I hope you enjoy NIV as much as I did. It was my first full fledged Chinese historical fantasy, and it was perfect! (Hu Ge for king!) – Paroma

Time Stamping is an awesome idea!! Especially for people with spoiler phobias like me!!! I’m enjoying NIF so far..totally amazed by our beloved strategist…reminds me how utterly attractive an intelligent man can be..lol…I thought the same about Money FLower..I LOVE it when mind is prioritized over brawn…I discovered Hu Ge in Disguiser and I loved him there. Been a huge fan since..that was also a great drama with more heartstopping moments…
Thanks Paroma! Until next time…
