We've been letting Chicago Typewriter simmer for a week, and now we're back to serve you some review soup. We're worried we've added too much salt to this K drama since we started watching it, so hopefully some viewer comments will help to spice it up. Join us this week as we try to imagine this K drama without subtitles and weigh the pros and cons of the past and present plot lines.
Emily and Raquel made a promise a long time ago that they would finish this K drama, and now they have reincarnated to bring you the review of the final episodes of 'Chicago Typewriter'. We have been haunting your computer/phone/other listening device, and now we are ready to tell you tales of romantic love, platonic love, and surprising amounts of gun violence for a K drama.
We’re a couple weeks into ‘Chicago Typewriter’ and we are starting to have some feelings! If you’ve listened along this far then you know we’ve been slow on the uptake with this one. But don’t you worry, we’re still here to talk about things we are under qualified to discuss! Go catch up on the episode and then join us here as we talk more about Korean history, bucket hat pranks, and love polygons.
We're back for a second week with Chicago Typewriter! We thought we didn't have much to say, but in the true spirit of podcasting and K drama enthusiasm we found a way to keep talking anyway. Join us here for a chat about characters we are trying to like and a history lesson where we are the only ones who learn anything.
It's time for a new K drama! This week we watched the first four episodes of 'Chicago Typewriter' where we meet Han Se Ju, a famous author who battles with writers block after his biggest fan, Jeon Seol, delivers a relic from a past life to his home. Go catch up on the episodes and then come listen to us as we chat about misery and 'Misery'.
Maybe you thought we were done here with DotS, but we really aren't! We're coming at you like a secret third ending because we still have to cover some bonus material on this drama. This week we are reading viewer comments and then shamelessly using them to help us come to terms with our own opinions on this K drama.
Oh hi there! Maybe you remember us? It’s Emily and Raquel! We’re back and we have reached the end of ‘Descendants of the Sun’! It’s been a while since we’ve reviewed this show, but we are excited to jump back in and finish up this amazing K drama. Go catch up on the finale and then come listen to us as we talk about what could have been the ending, the actual ending, and then the other ending.
We have some more reviewing to do here on DotS! As the drama picks up we are finding out just how far our expertise goes on many topics. Go catch up on the episodes, and then listen here so we can tell you how to properly apply sunscreen, how surgery actually works, and how to dress as a Very Cool Korean Man. Trust us, we’re experts.
Time for some more DotS! We are back this week to review episodes 5-8 and this K drama continues to be compelling and overwhelmingly good. Go catch up on the episodes and then join us here so we can tell you how many tears to cry, which wonderfully silly jokes to laugh at, and what outfits to never ever pack when you go to a war zone.
We took a brief and unexpected break, but we are back this week and we are starting a new K drama! That's right, we started 'Descendants of the Sun' and it is very very good! Before you listen to us go catch up on episodes 1-4 of DotS where Alpha Team leader Yoo Shi Jin meets doctor Kang Mo Yeon, and they hit it off immediately, but their demanding jobs may keep them apart. Then join us back here and listen as we talk about surprisingly pleasant communication, hunger for friendships, and our very deep fear of war dramas.
