We’re taking a short break between seasons after wrapping up with Hotel Del Luna. In this episode, we have a conversation with a couple of friends: Sung Hee, who was our guest in Episode 6, and cousin Linda, who we have mentioned so many times! Be prepared to laugh with us as we discuss our love of K Dramas! We cover:

• Our individual K Drama journeys
• What makes K Dramas so addicting
• How K Dramas are so wholesome
• The invention of the Korean language, Hangeul, and our own languages journeys with Hangeul
• Our favorite shows and actors
• Our favorite K Drama OSTs
• Are Korean really that wonderful?
• What it’s like to be Asian-American and Korean-American at a time when KPop, K Dramas and Korean culture are so popular
• What we thought about Hotel Del Luna
• What we think about our choice of It’s Okay to Not Be Okay as the next K Drama that we will recap and analyze

Listeners, next week, we will have another special guest: Professor Ernabel Demillo is Department Chair of the Communication and Media Culture Department at Saint Peter's University and host of the Emmy-award winning "Asian American Life" show on CUNY-TV.  

After the episode with Professor Demillo, we will begin Season 2 of K Drama Chat by recapping and analyzing Episode 1 of It’s Okay to Not Be Okay. If you haven’t started watching, please start now!
