[Episode] Chinese Dude Nitpicks The Apothecary Diaries | Video Essay
Added 2025-08-29 14:43:45 +0000 UTCAfter the heavy topic of our last video, let's do something silly and relaxing. Let's watch The Apothecary Diaries together, and let me point out as many Chinese details as possible. We'll cover everything from clothing styles to architectural decorations. It'll be as exhaustive as time allows.
Did I say relaxing? I mean relaxing for me. This might be irritatingly pedantic for you.
