🌙 The After-Hours Reset: Week No. 4 – Crowns, Kitchens, and Moral Codes

📝 The Week In Review

Chef & My Fridge and Honour are back on the list! My comfort show and the show that I’ve put on the back-burner. You see, after watching the latest episodes of Perfect Crown, I definitely need my comfort show. That show is giving me a high blood pressure. I love it but the villains be villain-ing here! And the poor baby king being used and bullied by adults! The nerve. So, yes, I need Chef & My Fridge to calm my blood pressure down.

🤩 The Highlights

  • Perfect Crown (Ep 9-10): ⚡ – We have two more episodes and I don’t know how it’s going to end. That’s the thing with this show that I think made people hooked – you can never guess how the next episode will go even with the previews. While I can guess, it still managed to surprise me.
  • Chef & My Fridge (Ep 10-11): ☁️ – After the latest two episodes of Perfect Crown, I need something to comfort me. Ep 11 has Chef Sang Rok back. Aww…
  • Honour (Ep 3-4): ⚡ – Well, I’m not surprised that the side character that I don’t really like is not there anymore but it’s still quite tragic.
  • Sammy’s Children’s Day (Ep 7-8): 🦋 – I’m about to finish and I want smack Liu Yi awake. Sweetie pie, you like Chu San. Just admit it already!

💖 The Midnight Mood

  • 😋: Okay, since my work went a little crazy, I did eat some food beyond the time that I set myself at for my diet era. Just normal dinner, like the fish curry my mom cooked for today – on a Mother’s Day, yes. That’s mom’s love, y’all.
  • 🎶: Someone just help a girl out here. I’m stuck at Wednesday Girl by P1Harmony for a whole week now. My goodness! So stuck that I have added P1Harmony as one of the groups I stan now. Great! For a change, I’m embedding a YouTube video of them singing the song live because that’s when I laughed at myself and went: Ha! Another boy group in my list!

👀 Looking Ahead

I said I will finish Sammy’s Children’s Day, right? Ha! That didn’t happen. Should I promise finishing the show this week? Probably not. That’s dangerous 😂

Stay awake with me,

📃 The Great Reset: Week No. 4 – The Crown, The Feels, and The One

Show / Movie / BookProgressCurrent Vibe
Perfect CrownEp 8/12⚡ Electric
Sammy’s Children’s DayEp 7/9🦋 Heart-Fluttering
Feel What You FeelEp 1/8🦋 Heart-Fluttering
Wanna One Go: Back To BaseEp 2/6☁️ Cozy / Daydreaming

This week, my list is interesting – from usual K-drama to Chinese BL dramas to… K-pop variety show. Honestly, it’s good for my brain. Otherwise, with my busy work-life, I would get all my dramas mixed up.

🔊 Weekly Highlight: What a mix

With work being busy, I am amazed that I could slip in 2 shows which is Feel What You Feel and Wanna One Go: Back To Base. Now, Wanna One variety show would be easier for me to consume after a hard day at work. Bunch of cuties being a bunch of cuties together? Easy-peasy! It’s easy to watch as well because they are just a bunch of comedians so I was laughing a lot except for the latest episode, to which I was bawling. These boys deserve to be a permanent group.

💖 The Midnight Mood

  • 🎧 Soundtrack: This song has been looping in my head and it’s going to creep up into the top 10 of my Spotify 2026. I’ve been repeating it non-stop. It’s Wednesday Girl by P1Harmony. Where did they come from? Well, I can thank Gemini AI for recommending this song 😂
  • 😋 Snack: Nothing. My diet is working. I shall continue with it.
  • 🛏️ Sleep Thief: It’s either Sammy’s Children’s Day or Feel What You Feel. Either one of them I was watching at night.

📋 Drop / Keep / Add

  • 💯 Keep: All the shows, for now, including Honour.
  • 🫳🏽 Drop: Jun & Jun – I couldn’t finish it. The office-related stuff can be quite cringey. It’s unlike Secret Relationship, which is a little bit more believable.
  • ➕ Add: You know, every time I say something here, I won’t watch it and I watch some others so I don’t want to say anything anymore 😆

🌙 The After-Hours Reset: Week No. 3 – A Marathon of Crowns, Fridges and Enemies

📝 The Week In Review

Perfect Crown reminds me why I usually waited until a show completes before binge-watching. Because the waiting is excruciating. Good thing is: There’s always something to look out for after a hell of a week at work. This week, because of a hell-ish work week, I decided to watch one of my comfort shows – Chef & My Fridge. I also added two other BL shows because why not.

🤩 The Highlights

  • Perfect Crown (Ep 7-8): ⚡ – Can someone just give our royal couple a break? They don’t get one day of peace (or maybe they do) without something happening and they have to manage it together. Anyways, now that the second half of the drama starts, the drama ups the ante and us viewers are waiting what Grand Prince I-An has on his cards. That man is very smart and these two episodes also show how dangerous he can be.
  • Chef & My Fridge (Ep 8-10): ☁️ – Still my comfort show. Watched it whenever I feel the lousiest and this week was definitely it.
  • Never Forget Your Enemy (Ep 1-8): 🔥 – I decided to go with this rather than 🦋. It’s more 🔥 than 🦋 but there are some sweet moments. I did watch all 8 episodes and yet to write a review because the next show in this highlights is distracting me.
  • Sammy’s Children’s Day (Ep 1-6): 🦋 – It’s been a while since I watched a Chinese BL show. Chusan is a cutie patootie who is also quite nerdy hot. While Liu Yi is such a clueless person. Will this man ever realize he’s actually in love with Chusan or not?

💖 The Midnight Mood

  • 😋: I’m still in my diet era. But because I was so stressed out, I was almost always eating past the time I’m supposed to stop eating. So, I was eating breads, which is favourite carbs of all carbs and drinking hot chocolate because sweet stuff makes me feel better after a shitty day at work.
  • 🎶: Let’s go with one of the songs from Perfect Crown – My Favourite Part by So Soo Bin.

👀 Looking Ahead

I think I will finish Sammy’s Children’s Day as it just ended. I definitely need to start Yumi’s Cells Season 3 at some point. And I saw some clips of Absolute Value of Romance that looks interesting.

🌙 The After-Hours Reset: Week No. 2 – Crowns, Closures and Honours

📝 The Week In Review

Wow! I really have to applaud myself that I am really following Perfect Crown as the show is ongoing. That was not very me. I can’t remember the last K-drama that I’ve done this. But I really kept up with the show. Yes, it means I did finish the latest episode 6. That episode was breath-taking, to say the least. I felt bad for my soft toys for getting whacked because the owner was giggling so hard. I wonder what is in store in the second half of the show though. I also just finished Love for Love’s Sake. Yes, I should also applaud myself for finally taking the plunge and just cried and the heart was mended back watching the last episode. Silly sweet boys! I also continued with Honour. It’s an interesting show – girl-bosses but with trauma.

🤩 The Highlights

  • Perfect Crown (Ep 5-6): ⚡ – K-dramas are truly back with this show. I’ve read comments from viewers who did not watch K-dramas for years until this very show. Depending on how the second half of the show plays out, this drama could very much win Best Drama.
  • Love For Love’s Sake (Ep 7-8): 🦋 – Yes, I finally finished this and I did not regret watching this at all. They are so cute. I wrote a review of it here.
  • Honour (Ep 2-3): ⚡ – I am intrigued by this show. Power moves by the 3 main ladies and kudos to them doing what they do. But one of the side characters is starting to piss me off and made me want to fast-forward her story but her case is the beginning of everything that will unfold later, I’m sure. Ugh!

💖 The Midnight Mood

  • 😋: Still in my diet era! The last food I ate was my dinner cooked by my mom. So mommy’s food, guys!
  • 🎶: Since yesterday, I was creating a Spotify playlist for my normal workday with NCT Dream songs after some hiatus because yours truly couldn’t listen to their songs without bawling after the latest news of Mark leaving the entire group of NCT. Finally, I got the courage of listening to their songs again and decided to create a K-pop playlist of sort with mostly their songs. But I won’t be putting NCT Dream song here. It would be Killing Me by IKON, which is in the playlist.

👀 Looking Ahead

I think I need to start Yumi’s Cells Season 3 or Absolute Value of Romance or Love Upon A Time. Or all three. I don’t know anymore!

📃 The Great Reset: Week No. 2 – Crowns, Colleagues, and Hard-Earned Honour

Show / Movie / BookProgressCurrent Vibe
Perfect CrownEp 4/12⚡ Electric
Jun & JunEp 3/8🦋 Heart-Fluttering
HonourEp 2/12⚡ Electric

Last week was about the “Great Reset” – the fresh start after more than a month of spiritual stillness. This week, we’re digging deeper. The stakes are climbing for the Perfect Crown, the workplace is heating up in Jun & Jun, and I’ve just begun the journey into Honour.

🔊 Weekly Highlight: Settling In

I skipped on my comfort shows this week – work is just a little bit more busy. But I still managed to catch Perfect Crown latest episodes, sneaked in two episodes for Jun & Jun (while I’m still prepping for heartache with Love for Love’s Sake) and started on Honour, which I’ve been wanting to watch for a while now.

💖 The Midnight Mood

  • 🎧 Soundtrack: You know what? I’ve been loving BIGBANG in Coachella so let’s go with Sober by BIGBANG
  • 😋 Snack: I’m on my diet era and still is. And it’s working so no snacking at night
  • 🛏️ Sleep Thief: I would go for Jun & Jun. I did watch it while lying in bed.

📋 Drop / Keep / Add

  • 💯 Keep: All the shows in my list including Jun & Jun and Honour
  • 🫳🏽 Drop: Nothing for now
  • ➕ Add: Hmm… probably Yumi’s Cells Season 3.

🌙 The After-Hours Reset: Week No. 1 – Too Many Feels

The Week In Review

I can’t believe I’m able to keep up with Perfect Crown. But the problem with watching the episodes as it airs is… the waiting. Episode 4 ends in such a thrilling note how am I supposed to wait for next week? 😭 On the other hand, I’m left with 1-ish episode of Love for Love’s Sake. I’m kicking my feet at “Remember, you’re mine.”, I cannot get to the episode where he has to choose. So, I decided to start with Jun & Jun while I prepare my brain and heart for the last episodes of Love for Love’s Sake.

The Highlights

  • Perfect Crown (Ep 3-4): ⚡- I was laughing my ass off. Grand Prince I-An and Huiju is seriously a pair. As his assistant said: “Cute couple.”
  • Chef & My Fridge (Ep 8): ☁️ – Truly my comfort show: Just watching it as and when I need a break
  • Love For Love’s Sake (Ep 6): 🦋 – Sure, I was kicking my feet and giggling for 95% of the episode and then the heartbreak. My heart cannot handle this.
  • Jun & Jun (Ep 1): 🦋 – Interesting, though the office presentation made me laugh out loud. Probably just me and my corporate PTSD. Also, why can’t I get a GM as handsome as one of the Juns. Come on now!

The Midnight Mood

  • 😋: I’m in my diet era, guys! So, no food for me at night 😭
  • 🎶: Well, since it’s Perfect Crown sorta week for me, let’s go with the latest OST from the drama – Behind The Shine by RIIZE. This song is kinda sad though 😭

Looking Ahead

Let’s see if I can complete Love for Love’s Sake. My dear heart, please prepare yourself.

📃 The Great Reset: Week No. 1 – Royals, Recipes and Romance

Chef & My Fridge Season 4Ep 8/31☁️ Cozy / Daydreaming
Perfect CrownEp 2/12⚡ Electric
Love for Love’s SakeEp 6/8🦋 Heart-Flutter
High Potential Season 2Ep 5/18☁️ Cozy / Daydreaming

I decided to hit the reset button. Since I took more than a month off for spiritual reflection and rest, it felt only right to start my watchlist count back at No. 1. Consider this the “New Season” of This Siti Never Sleeps.

🔊 Weekly Highlight: It’s a perfect mix

Suffice to say, I can treat Chef & My Fridge and High Potential as my comfort shows in two different ways: One for the laugh, the other if I have nothing else to watch. This week I also started on Perfect Crown. I hardly try to watch a show that is currently ongoing but this one looks interesting. And, after The Time of Fever, I felt a loss and decided to watch Love for Love’s Sake and stopped at Ep 6 because I know I’m in for a heartbreak.

💖 The Midnight Mood

  • 🎧 Soundtrack: My Pace by BIBI – the OST for Perfect Crown. I almost mistake her for IU, the female lead for the show
  • 😋 Snack: Well, currently I feel like I’m going to get a cough so I’m sucking on Strepsils to ensure I don’t get into a coughing fit. Wish me well!
  • 🛏️ Sleep Thief: Love for Love’s Sake – though, yes, I’m pausing it because of potential heartbreak coming in the next two episodes. I’m protecting myself!

📋 Drop / Keep / Add

  • 💯 Keep: All the shows in my current list
  • 🫳🏽 Drop: Nothing for now
  • ➕ Add: Potentially another BL but not sure which yet

High Potential Season 2Ep 2/18☕ Wide Awake
The Name of the Game is a KidnappingPage 63☕ Wide Awake

Weekly Highlight: It’s all about the boys
But seriously, this week, I finished 2 BLs, which is a feat. It helps that these BLs are short but still… quite amazing that I finished them and still manage to watch others like No Tail To Tell, The Art of Sarah, High Potential Season 2. I’d give this spot to The Art of Sarah. I literally started it today and I’m already at Episode 3. I’m a slow watcher but I’m going pretty fast here.

The Midnight Mood

  • The Soundtrack: Let’s go with YOARI’s Can’t Be from No Tail To Tell. Very mystical sounding that fits the theme of the show
  • The Midnight Snack: I’ve not been snacking this week. Been drinking Milo though.
  • The Sleep Thief: The BLs that I completed – I Hear The Sunspot and Love Begins In The World of If. I’ve posted the reviews for these two!

Drop/Keep/Add

  • Keeping: Our Universe. I’m just pausing at Episode 2 because it’s still ongoing.
  • Dropping: None at the moment.
  • Adding: I really need to start watching The Judge Returns and/or Honour.

🕛 Midnight Wrap-Up: Issue #5

The Week In Review: This week went better than the weeks before. I wasn’t feeling well – physically and mentally – so I slowed down and watched something comforting instead. Yes, that’d be Chef & My Fridge but there’s also my fave group’s YouTube contents. This week, though, I was back in full force.

The Highlights (What I Actually Watched)

  • No Tail To Tell (Ep 3-8): ☕ – Quick thought: In Korea, this show is not doing well but I find it interesting actually.
  • I Hear The Sunspot (Ep 7-8): 🦋 – Quick thought: I can see why some people find it to be more bromantic than BL. It can be seen as a typical coming-of-age, friendship drama. So far.
  • Our Universe (Ep 1-2): 🦋 – Quick thought: The baby is so cute. Every episode so far gives me baby fever. Woo Joo is so adorable. This baby is the main plot. Well, he is.
  • Chef & My Fridge (Ep 49-53): ☁️ – Q️uick thought: Erm… I hope Netflix gets the license to air the rest of the episodes. It’ll be weird if Ep 53 is the last one.

The Midnight Mood

  • The Snack: When I was watching all these shows, I was eating actual meals most of the time – either lunch or dinner. But I’ve been eating a few waffles quite lately. So, waffles it is 😂
  • The Vibe: Since I’ve been pretty much binge-watching No Tail To Tell till the last episode that Netflix has at the moment, I would say Can’t Be by YOARI, which is one of their soundtracks. It’s very mystical. It fits the theme of the show.

Looking Ahead

  • I might try to finish I Hear The Sunspot. I’ve also been seeing Honour on my TikTok fyp so I might give that one a go as well.

Weekly Highlight: Chef & My Fridge
For this week, I couldn’t stop watching this show. It is getting more and more hilarious and the chemistry between the chefs are so good. They look like a family to me and I just hope that it continues. And Netflix can get the licensing to continue with the show. I put a “?” because it was supposed to be till Episode 60. But it is showing till Episode 53 now.

The Midnight Mood

  • The Soundtrack: I’m going to go with a song that’s playing on my random Spotify playlist – Fools by Troye Sivan.
  • The Midnight Snack: My bottle of water. It feels so healthy but I’m just very thirsty while writing this post.
  • The Sleep Thief: I would say Chef & My Fridge. I was watching 3-4 episodes straight at one point.

Drop/Keep/Add

  • Keeping: Still No Tail To Tell. I’m pacing myself as it’s still ongoing.
  • Dropping: Nothing to drop this week. Yay!
  • Adding: Our Universe – This show might give the viewers baby fever. The baby is so cute!
