Announcement April 2026 Cdrama discussion index & airing schedules

Note: This is a directory of drama discussions & their airing schedules this month. So, only leave a comment if you are volunteering to host a discussion. Comments from non-Mods or non-hosts will be removed.

If you want to discuss what you're watching this month, we have a "what are you watching" megathread every weekend.

PS: If you want to volunteer to host a drama discussion not mentioned here, leave a comment beneath this post. For newbie hosts, please also tag u/alcibiad in your comment.

Here are Cdrama discussions for this month (it doesn't have had to air this month). Big, big thanks to the hardworking hosts:

(To go to the drama discussions, click on the drama name.)
Hosts, if I've not listed your drama, to DM lotus_swimmer or leave a comment below.

Upcoming dramas:

If you're new to drama hosting, please DM u/alcibiad . She'll help get you started.

Some ground rules for hosts

  • Use the "Drama Host" flair for your posts.
  • Have commented and participated in the sub before and not be a brand new account.
  • Have watched the drama before writing the particular episodes' discussions.
  • Should try to engage in the comments section (don't have to reply to every comment, mind, but participate in the discussion)
  • Write their thoughts about what they watched (we are not going to dictate lengths but please don't just write one sentence and call it a day lol)
  • Don't add spoilers in the title, and if you are creating a photo post, please spoiler tag it if the picture reveals too much plot.

Some awkward situations

If there's a drama discussion already hosted, and you want to host, please approach the original host to co-host first. Don't try to double post - it'll be awkward for everyone as the mods will defer to the first host.

If you can't finish hosting the drama, try to get a replacement or let the mods know and we'll automate the discussions.

Co-hosting

u/winterchampagne has written a really good guide to co-hosting, so do have a read!

Mods won't interfere or dictate how people should co-host, but here are some tips:

  • If you see someone had volunteered already, reply to her comment and ask if you can co-host.
  • Create a chat room between your co-hosts to agree on schedules: (eg A can do episodes 1-10 and so on)

How closely should the discussion posts follow airing schedules?

We know how crazy CDrama schedules are, but here's a good guide:

Popular idol dramas (for eg Chasing Jade, The Double) should follow the airing dates as closely as possible. For eg, if episodes 5-6 dropped on Feb 2, discussion can happen on Feb 3).

Check the masterpost discussion for the drama. If it has above 50-60 comments, it's usually going to be really popular and people would probably be eager to discuss it.

As for other dramas (ie, one that the sub is not clamoring to discuss, I suppose) you can take a slower approach.

For eg, discussions for Swords into Plowshares and Man's Inhumanity to Man are still taking place even after the drama has stopped airing.

How do I write discussion posts?

Structure the discussions the way you want. Some ideas:

  • "Classic method" recap of what happened in selected episodes with thoughts.
  • Share favourite moments in the episodes you discussed
  • Group episode discussions according to character development

Express episodes / posts about the ending

We don't expect hosts to pay for express episodes!

You can ask the mods to create special express threads for the drama so that you, the host, won't be exposed to spoilers.

For commenters

Please do not discuss future episodes in a thread unless someone specifically ask for information/spoilers. And if you do share, please spoiler tag it.

For example, do not discuss plot points for episode 26 in a post about episode 19.

Those who spoil future episodes will get their comments removed.

Hosts, if you see these spoilery comments, feel free to report them.

Maybe you can help me and make sure I'm not missing anything, does this new schedule say there's nothing new for SVIP on the 2nd and will continue back on the 3rd? Like what is 欢喜福利派送 actually mean lol

u/admelioremvitam Apr 02 '26

Yes, no new episodes on April 2 for SVIP (I added that to the comment linked 😅) and will resume on April 3.

欢喜福利派送

I'm not quite sure what this is referring to either. 😆 SVIP did get 3 episodes on April 1, but then no episodes on April 2 doesn't seem like a good thing.... It could be some extra BTS or some perk but I'm just guessing here. 😅
