I won’t lie, my blanket and the walls of my flat (and probably my neighbors) are already familiar with my intermittent shrieking whenever I get into a drama.
I’m sure we’ve all felt it at least once – Really, there’s no way you’ve watched more than two romantic Chinese dramas and you haven’t gotten that “butterflies in the stomach” kind of moment.
