This episode ended up being movie-centric without us even realising. The three of us discuss Netflix’ Emily in Paris and the portrayal of a foreign land through the eyes of someone who hasn’t really lived there. We also talk about the controversial movie: Cuties and how sexualising minors to write a commentary about sexualising minors basically sucks. Chris then goes on to share about one of South Korea’s most famous cases—The Hwaseong Serial Murders. Thanks to Bong Joon Ho’s acclaimed (and frankly, AMAZING) film, Memories of Murder… many details of this case has become confused. But we try to stick to the facts. While also listing several K-dramas inspired by this case. Honda then tells us about the Manananggal, a vampire-like creature from the Philippines. Though its name’s a mouthful (try to say Manananggal five times in a row, we dare you) this cryptid’s got a taste for blood. And babies. After all, killers and spirits are just things… Hidden Among Us.
