Today's episode starts off the season of Throwing it Back w/ Lola! In this season of the podcast, we'll be jumping around the past 20+ years of Kdramaland to find and rediscover what it is about these small screen masterpieces that makes us love and appreciate them so much. It's also a journey for me to return to my beginnings of watching Kdrama and remember what things I've learned from these dramas and what more I hope to learn as I continue watching them!

So, to start us off, come join me as I throw it back to 2004's What Happened in Bali? It's a controversial one, hated and beloved by many, but let's see what I was left feeling after rewatching this drama after all these years!

Guess who's back? Back again! For a round 4!

Season 4 of Lola Pops Off about Kdramas Podcast starts with a new Ramblings & Musings episode to get you excited about what's to come and what's been up since I've been away! I have lots of dramas to fill you in on, but I also am gearing up for the real start of this year of the podcast so I may sound super excited throughout this long episode. Check out this episode to find out more about the new format for this season of the podcast, but also to know what dramas I've been watching, dramas I've dropped, and what dramas I'm looking forward to in the upcoming month! As always, time stamps are available!

Christmas came early again this year for me with the return of one of my favorite episodes I’ve ever done! This episode is truly a gift to me. So, thank you, thank you, thank you to Tiffany, Lee Song Wook, Beth, Sharon, Milica, Ariane, Squash & Yovita for allowing me to learn more about you and your time in Kdramaland! I can't wait to continue getting to know you all and look forward to getting to know more of you listening! Please check out this episode and show lots of love to our featured guests!

Small edit:: For question, “Do you have a Kdrama ritual? How do you best enjoy watching your Kdramas?”

I mistakenly read Squash’s answer from last year! 🙈

Today's episode is a quick Let's See What's Up one where I let you know my initial thoughts on two fantasy rom com dramas! Between the two, I express some concerns about one and question if I will keep watching it, while the other...I might be already in love with it ! Check out this quick episode to find out which one is what!
