We’re diving into the spicy Korean web-dramaHit the Spot, akaFanta G Spot. There was so much ground to cover (and once again,so much sex)that we’re splitting our discussion into two parts. In part one–which you’re reading about right now–we give some context for the show’s setup, introduce the cast of characters, and share our reactions to the two main romances. Make sure you listen to part two for our thoughts on the ways the drama centers female pleasure, how it balances education with fantasy, and more!

Most importantly though, we need your thoughts on Roy Choiwith a beard orwithout. Will y'all vindicate Ayanni's appreciation for stubble? Or will you side with Corinne's approval of a clean shave? Let us know on Twitter, Instagram, or by answering the Spotify poll~
