This Singapore Series Is Worth Bingeing On Netflix And Cancelling All Your Dates
Okay, gather 'round, because there's a period drama on Netflix that's keeping us at the edge of our seats: "Emerald Hill: The Little Nyonya Story"!

Think gorgeous Peranakan fashion, jaw-dropping mansions, and enough family secrets to fill an entire season of "Keeping Up With The Kardashians." This show has it all: intense drama, unexpected twists, and three incredible Nyonya women navigating betrayals and power struggles in a truly visually stunning world. Seriously, the costumes are a whole vibe! It's a journey back to the 1950s-70s that's packed with cultural richness and emotional punches.

Well, don't take it from us; the people have spoken!
Awwwww #EmeraldHill ended on @Netflix_PH yesterday and the last few episodes felt like a Filipino series hurried to wrap up. And the gun-toting-villain-turned-p**cho trope is quite Filipino-coded, too. In short: Relatable! Nevertheless, I enjoyed its run!
