Did you guys love that closet kiss or what? Judy and Teresa are intrigued by episodes 9-10 of “What’s Wrong With Secretary Kim” (김비서가 왜 그럴까), a TVN drama starring Park MinYoung and Park SeoJoon.

What is wrong with the family members of our lead characters? Youngjoon's (Park SeoJoon) shady family urgently needs a therapist, while Miso's (Park MinYoung) sisters need to check their attitudes. This week is saved by the absolutely great closet kiss (you know the one) and Secretary Yang (Kang HongSeok) making progress with Lipstick Lady (Hwang BoRa).

Judy refuses to watch the new kdrama, “Time”, if only for the fact that Kim JungHyun continues to be sourfaced in it. Teresa tried the first two episodes of “Come and Hug Me” and was intrigued by it. Judy is still watching and loving “Lawless Lawyer”.

 

Digressions:

0:48 - Domino's in Korea

29:28 - Teresa's childhood nickname

38:08 - Judy explains the finer points of "Oppa"

47:25 - Why do Koreans love crabs in soy sauce so much?

55:23 - Traditional Korean medicine method of pricking one's finger for indigestion. This method of treating indigestion is not scientifically verified and therefore not recommended.

56:56 - Judy feels embarrassed for One Suit Man (aka Chansung from the boy group, 2PM). See the music video for "Heartbeat", which is now 8 years old!!! and Teresa swoons over Secretary Yang's (Kang HongSeok) singing. Please click here to watch a clip of Kang HongSeok on "Immortal Song".

1:02:36 - Cameo by Jung SoMin and Lee JoonKi (from "Beause This Is My First Life"). If you want to know which KDMEO episode Teresa's talking about, it's our Episode 68! Check it out if you want to hear a lot of ranting!

 

Some Korean terms:

씨: [ssi] a suffix you add to a person's name to indicate formality; the Japanese equivalent would be "san".
