I think a video is a proper success when half my viewers run off to watch the #kdrama 5 minutes into me talking excitedly about it. 🤣
Here's my video on why you should ALSO be watching #SpiritFingers!

I found a hilarious post on Xiaohongshu from an artist management agent discussing the negotiations that go on when there's a drama kissing scene. It's literally down to "you can put your lower lip on her upper lip for 2.5 seconds" and this explains A LOT #cdrama 🔗 xhslink.com/o/2zkAvb4Z9lS

Perfect summary
The Dream Life of Mr. Kim: Probably the highest quality Kdrama of 2025 and also one of the least enjoyable watches I've had this year. It's so painful to see him get stomped by the company while he keeps twisting himself into knots so they can get a better shot at him.

Happy Thanksgiving! Remember if your family is getting on your nerves you can always hide in the bedroom and watch something on the Viki app 🍗🥧😬😱📱

I’m half ready to cancel Viki. It’s not what it used to be. I’m especially upset at how they removed the ability to leave Disqus comments on each show’s reviews page (underneath the reviews section). That, paired with all the shows leaving the app and subpar streaming quality…I’m fed up!

We are all aggravated by those episode 13 fake breakups 💔 (episode 37 if you're watching a cdrama). This song speaks for all of us rolling our eyes knowing the couple will get back together in the last 15 minutes of the last episode. #kdrama

Please give Director #LeeChulHa a lot of love this week on his IG.
#SpiritFingers was a project he made with a lot of effort and love, that broadcasting decided to shelve for two years before finally releasing it.
This is a really good kdrama and it deserves love!

![Screenshot of song lyrics that reads:
Every paycheck knows where it's gonna go Netflix, Viki, iQIYI in a row GagaOOlala, Prime, and Tencent too YouTube Premium so I can binge on cue
[Chorus]
I work to stream, I stream to live
Monday through Friday, that's all I give
My bias on the screen at 2 AM
Worth every hour, I'd do it again
I work to stream, that's my whole vibe
Real life's pending while I subscribe Nine to five's just my side quest, it's true
My main story starts when I'm watching you

At 25:35 he says a fan is calling his personal number and then he talks about the invasion of his privacy. He's visibly upset yet so many international fans ignored it so they could drool over how hot he looks which is screwed up y'all. But people on Chinese sociam media called it out #cdrama

Yes, exactly. In some cases, agencies take as much as 70% of the artist's earnings. This could be a third thread on how agencies in China work.
I read that the agencies take a much bigger percentage than that from the artists, more like 70%. Maybe it depends on how established they are?

If you're like me and read a lot of things in different languages using Google translate, I discovered a feature on Android phones and tablets that enables you to translate images by pressing the home button and selecting translate. Lawd, that makes so many things easier #cdrama #kdrama #jdrama
