Put Your Head on My Shoulder: The Chinese drama that feels like iced coffee and a warm hug

It's summer, and you just need a watchlist. What comforts you better than a Chinese drama?

Well, we have a suggestion: Put Your Head on My Shoulder: It has all the softness and slow burns you need.

What's it about? Si Tu Mo (Xing Fei) is a soon-to-be accounting grad who would rather be dreaming up ad campaigns than crunching numbers. Sigh, if only she could figure out her life. She’s got a soft spot for Fu Pei (Tang Xiaotian), her flaky childhood crush who can’t seem to commit to lunch plans, let alone a relationship. Meanwhile, Si Tu Mo herself is all over the place, trying everything, deciding on nothing, and vibing through her quarter-life crisis.

Enter Gu Wei Yi (Lin Yi), a genius physics major with the emotional range of a calculator... or so she thinks. Thanks to a meddling mom and a housing mix-up, Si Tu Mo finds herself living with said genius — because, of course, their mothers were college besties who low-key ship them harder than any fan could.

At first, sparks don’t exactly fly. Cue some arcastic jabs and awkward run-ins. But under the same roof and with major slow-burn chemistry, they discover they’re more compatible than either expected. From petty fights to soft glances and shared toothpaste, this accidental cohabitation turns into the kind of romance, that's top-notch for the lovers of the genre.

It’s sweet, clean, cosy, and the kind of drama that makes you believe the right person might just be one lease agreement away.

Watch if you love: sunshine x grump pairings, nerdy boyfriends, meddling moms with matchmaking agendas, and slow-burn roommates-to-lovers perfection.
