In this episode of Inside Vertical Short Dramas from Short Drama Decode, we talk with Jen Cooper, a London-based entrepreneur and cultural analyst who unexpectedly became a devoted fan of Chinese vertical dramas.

Jen shares her unique perspective on why these fast-paced, emotionally addictive stories are resonating with Western audiences. We explore how short dramas bypass cultural barriers, the power of “domineering CEO” tropes, and what makes Chinese platforms distinct in shaping global viewing behaviors.

Jen is also the founder of Vertical Drama Love and Jennifer Cooper Timesaver, and has been featured by BBC Radio 4 and The Guardian as a leading voice on vertical video culture.
