Arsenal Military Academy: Xu Kai's Magnetic Appeal & Bai Lu's Epic Badassery

This episode started as a spoilery discussion of Arsenal Military Academy (a 2019 chinese drama set in the early 20th century, starring Bai Lu and Xu Kai), but became a longer conversation on the history of imperialism and china's use of underdog stories to ignite national pride. But it's still a dramas over flowers episode, so expect lots of fangirling and explosive laughter.Send us your thoughts on the episode in a voice note here: <Recording Page>LINKS:KOBO PLUS is available in Italy | Canada | Australia | New ZealandThe music video that convinced Paroma to watch Arsenal Military AcademyMORE EPISODES YOU'LL LIKE:Episode 130: Cross-fire (spoiler free) & discussion of rise in gaming cdramasNEWSLETTER:Join our email list for the monthly newsletter with podcast announcements and special episodes!PATRONS:SPECIAL THANK YOU to our beloved patrons for another year of helping us light the lanterns to sail our ship!Join our Patreon here! ❤︎ You can also support us by leaving a review on your podcast app, or sharing the episode with friends! ❤︎SOCIAL:Follow us on Twitter @dramasoverflow and Instagram @dramasoverflowers_.Email us at [email protected]:This episode was edited by Saya (assisted by Paroma)Dramas Over Flowers is part of the Frolic Podcast Network.
