Begin Again - Pretty much the toxic CEO trope to a T. Recommended it to a lot of people who couldn't stand how awful FL was, lol

i'm currently watching this now, and i'm enjoying it! thanks for the reco!

However, "Fated Hearts" was a different story.

OMG You have convinced me!! Starting Fated Hearts. 

I took a break from C dramas for a couple of months and moved to K dramas with Heroes Next Door, and A shop for killers etc. Both of which also have some good strong women. Back to trying out Fated Hearts, even though I haven't liked the actress who plays FL in her other roles, I am hoping this one will be different!! 


Dear beloved club members. 

I just wanted to take a moment to reach out and remind you that, no matter where you find yourselves today, you are incredibly special and there are people who are thinking of you fondly. I wish you a holiday filled with wonder, and may you stumble upon something today that brings you joy and makes you smile.


Very sweet message, thank you <3

Merry Christmas and happy holidays to you, Simi, and to all club members ^^ Hope you're all having a wonderful time

Thank you! If you have time off I hope you're taking a little bit of it for yourself, and of course friends and family (whether they're blood-related or found). Please stay warm if you're somewhere cold, and most importantly stay safe <3 

Happy New year 2026 everyone!! Here is to hoping we get more of our RR shows this year!!

Yes! I started this! A friend recommended it to me a few days back. Watched the beginning and it's seriously giving good femdom/RR O-O Like I was shook with what I was seeing! 

Checking the comments, it seems like this version of the story actually commits to a proper male-harem which sounds quite promising. Will definitely be continuing it

This popped up on my radar a few days ago, and I'm itching to watch it, but I can't find an upload that includes the background music as well. I know they usually have to take it out for copyright reasons (LOL @ China just throwing in whatever songs they want) but just hearing the characters talk against a quiet background drives me bananas. Mood music greatly affects the drama/movie-watching experience for me.

Ooh, was it good so far? I saw comments saying it commits to being an actual reverse harem too. We're talking kisses with multiple men...>.>

If anyone's interested I watched one of the best vertical dramas the other day with an awesome RR foundation called:

Xun Ye (aka Tamed by Temptation)

https://kisskh.at/795248-ye-gou-nan-xun

The ML has the biggest puppy dog eyes I've ever seen and the FL appreciates them too. Halfway through the drama he does get a little more dominant, but FL is still just as assertive and calls the shots. The chemistry was overwhelming, and I thoroughly enjoyed myself. I clutched my pearls a couple times too. If anyone wants to watch it, message me and I'll send over the link. 


(Omg look at who can finally quote lol).

So far, I enjoyed it! Like I was quite shook with just how bold she was O-O I'm leaving it for when I'm feeling better and able to enjoy it.

Aw, that's quite a shame. I really hate that in these verticals (tho it happens in p much all RR dramas to a certain extent). Where they'll start RR but then flip the script. I'll still check it out since you said it's good ^^ Thanks for the recc!

Small CLUB UPDATE

I updated the index, mostly removed the 2025 titles. You can find them in this list (linked in the index, too). I also added a couple to the list. 

Glory also started airing a while back, which seems to have a matriarchal family with matrilocal marriages (yippie!) (also side note that I got the Matrilocal Marriage tag approved :D)

And... I stumbled upon this little gem in the recently added section called: The Princess Decree. The poster intrigued me, and upon closer inspection, I realized he's the one on his knees in the background...

and uh... this is the trailer... I feel like y'all need to watch this and like, let me know if this also made y'all feel some kinda way because I... I am really itching to binge this one

Looks like we're finally getting a proper black-flag FL!!! OMGGG!!

Link in case the video doesn't load: https://youtu.be/3ZRU1H3CxLA?si=fW0Z0GjytDRXHY2t

I also stalked some mutuals and found not one but TWWWOOOO matriarchy dramas?!?!?! Ohmygod I'm eating SO good this year!

The Glory of Queen
In a matriarchal kingdom, Pei Jing Heng, a noble heir raised in disguise as a woman, meets Su Zhi Yao, an orphan who lost her memory after her family’s massacre. As their connection deepens, long-buried memories and shocking truths begin to emerge. 

Another matriarchy drama (YIPPPIIIEEEE)!! Comments claim the synopsis is false about ML's situation tho and judging from the trailer that seems to be true... He seems quite powerful and skilled too which is quite a shame... :(

I'll still check it out once later tho.
A Happy Life
Su Jin Li, a headstrong princess, is transported into a game world where danger, betrayal, and hidden rules govern her fate. As assassins close in and the system itself turns unstable, she joins forces with Yun Lang to uncover the truth behind the game and find a way back to reality.

Another matriarchy drama~ ML seems somewhat coquettish in this one, and the plot also seems compelling. I'm curious

Bold, you say??? I can't wait to find a good upload!!

Oh no, are you sick? D:

I know. I dislike the eventual "flip" too, but it's palatable in Xun Ye. The FL never becomes demure, and still calls the shots when it comes to the actual relationship. 

 Simi_Tutu:

YAY! CONGRATULATIONS!

Thanks <3

A black flag FL? That's the equivalent of a unicorn! Will people be able to handle her?

Thanks for all the recs, girlie. I'm adding ALL of them to my list.
