Kchat Jjigae Podcast

It’s possible we got so excited talking about all the good (and very bad) things we were watching that we ran long. Very long. Which always gives Stephanie fits, because she has to cut out all those meanderings she and Cherry take. This episode we’re talking Big Gay Gangster’s Big Dumb Drama, D-Day, The Village, and Kiss Me (aka Thai Playful Kiss). Yes, see? We can talk about new dramas! We’re also talking about the no good, very bad thing that's going on at YouTube, and then we answer a fun listener question about embarrassing situations caused by Kdrama and Kpop. Is it any wonder we couldn’t stop talking??

Podcast time! Seems like it’s been forever since we’ve had a good Kdrama chat. This episode, we answer some awesomely long-winded listener questions and comments regarding the mythical candy hero, Smile Dong Hae, the length and subbing of Taiwanese dramas, and the classic drama All About Eve. We also weigh in on the recent BTS US debacle, and we, as usual, go off and various tangents, including the tale of Mr. McFeeley and his hunt to find real Korean people to show off his new Running Man addiction.

This is Episode 35B! Or awesome part deux. We still have Jacqueline from Fangirl Musings with us to finish up the episode, and we’re talking Kdrama tropes, about tropes, favorite tropes, and tropes we just wish would go away.

Yep, we chatted too long again! Bad news? This episode was broken up into two episodes. Good news? The second episode is out tomorrow! Oh Yeah! In this episode, we’re talking about how iKON made Stephanie very cranky, great strides being taken in the DMCA battle, and then we have an interview with Jacqueline from the YouTube Kdrama review channel Fangirl Musings, about Kdrama, romance novels, and how much work goes into making a video.

Are you ready for an epic (or epikly long) podcast? This episode, Jacqueline from Fangirl Musings stops by to chat about Kdramas, Kpop schwag, Kdrama tropes, and all about her youtube channel–unfortunately, we spend so much time talking about dramas, so she’s coming back next week to talk the tropes and the YouTube stuff. So this episode is about Kdramas, Kdramas, Kdramas!

No sickness, no schedules, no technical difficulties will keep us from our podcasting path! And trust me—they all took their turns trying to thwart us this week. In this episode, Cherry manages to drag Stephanie’s secret watching out of her, they talk about how hard it can be watching friends watch Kdrama for the first time, we squee over Jackson and Junsu, chat some news, and then round it off talking about using spoilers or even skipping ahead to cheat-watch dramas.

Now that KCon is done, we’re getting back to our regularly scheduled programming—talking about Kdrama! In this episode, Stephanie is a little punchy, Cherry can’t stop laughing, and we talk about newsy things like, ugh, Ghost Seeing Detective, Soompi canceling their premium program, Super Junior and the Teen Choice awards, we answer some listener questions, and finally, we ponder the time-old did-not-finish list, talking about why we drop some shows and whether you should go back again.

Let’s get reaaaaaady to KCON! Or actually, we’ve already done KCon and are ready to talk all about the experience. Like last year, we are actually together recording and not in our hermetically sealed boxes, so there is a lot more background noise and it’s straight off our lips and into your ears (meaning it’s missing the hours of editing we usually put into it). We’re talking about the music, the panels, and the people of KCon (with a brief stop into what we’re watching). See you next year, Cherry Cordial!

Episode 30! Can we get a woot-woot! It’s our last podcast before we westward-KCON-ho. In this episode, Stephanie hijacks Cherry’s drama watching list with a rant about Scholar Who Walks At Night. We discuss the very upsetting news about the NYC BTS concert, and then we have a very special KCON announcement. And as always, we get a little spoilery on Lovesick (and for good measure Scholar Who Walks At Night—not our fault guys—how can you talk about that crazy-pants drama without giving crazy-pants details?)

Whew, with all the changes to the schedule, we didn’t think we were going to make this one on time! But by the power of GDragon we have made it. In this episode we talk about ice cream, Top Gear, and Stephanie’s new AC. Oh, and in drama-related topics we chatter about what dramas we’re watching, new and upcoming dramas to consider adding to our lists, randomly newsy stuff, and then a listener question where we talk about whether the sound of the a language itself can drive you from a drama. **Alert, we get a little spoilery about Lovesick, so if you haven’t watched up to episode 17—do it already!**
