This song is the opening credits theme song to Taiwanese BL web drama, HIStory 3 – Make Our Days Count (HIStory 3 《那一天》). The first time I heard the song late last year, I thought it was good but not really memorable. At the time I did try to search for the drama to watch online but was not able to find any results, well, only preview or promos but no full episodes, so I totally put it out of my mind.

【美食大三通】Malaysia Part 4 馬來西亞（四）
This is the final instalment on Malaysian street food on the Taiwanese TV show, 美食大三通, from 2011. The name of the show was changed to 愛玩客iWalker in 2012, and there were more episodes on Malaysian street food, I will see if I can gather those episodes together and link them here in the future.

【美食大三通】Malaysia Part 1 馬來西亞（一）
This Taiwanese TV food series appeared as a recommendation for me recently on YouTube. I watched it and, oh boy, made me so homesick for Malaysian street food! Even though this is almost 10 years old (the show was from 2011), it is still very informative on the traditional street food of Malaysia. One thing I like about this show is that the hosts, one of them is a chef, are not afraid to try everything since they are from Taiwan which has very similar food heritage to Chinese Malaysian, especially Hokkien food. This is part 1 of a 4-part series on Peninsular Malaysia (West Malaysia). Oh, and look out for the Nyonya Desert! LOL…

The Sound of Falling Snow 雪落下的聲音（電視劇《延禧攻略》片尾曲）
This song is the closing credits song from the 2018 Chinese period TV drama Story of Yanxi Palace (延禧攻略). I have never watched the 70-episode series, so the first time I heard the song was from the third season of the reality singing show Sound of My Dream (夢想的聲音). I love the song, so I went and searched for the original track sung by Rover Lu (陸虎), and love that version too which fitted with the mood of the drama. If you have watched the episode of Sound of My Dream where J J Lin covered the song, you would have noticed he interpreted it differently. Well, that is because he was given the criteria which was to perform the song with a “dazzling, splendour, grandeur” arrangement (歌曲限定詞：金碧輝煌).
