In today's episode, I am super excited to share my interview with Eric Chen, a creator of Sabobatage, a boba card game that he launched on Kickstarter early this year and raised over $148,000! We talked about how he came up with the idea and how he turned this idea into a reality in a span of a year. If you like boba, card game, business, or a combination of the three (me!), you'd love this episode.

In today's episode, my dear friend Song shares with us what it was like growing up as a Korean American in a town of 600 people and how 'being and feeling different' has led her to a career trajectory that centers around equity and inclusion. No one Asian or Korean American experience is the same and I hope that you can take away from this interview one very unique and valuable perspective.

When I think of kbeauty, I think of complicated routines with so many steps! What products should I use? Which steps are the best bangs for my bucks? What makes kbeauty so special? Where do I go to buy these products? Wahhh so many questions. In this episode, I asked my dear friend Michelle to break down the basics for us. She even shared her *secret* beauty routines. So if you want a forever-glowing skin, this episode is not to be missed.

In this episode, my American friend Reeve, who is living and working in Seoul, shares his experience as a foreigner in Korea. It's easy to fall into a trap thinking that there is only one way of living and doing things, especially in today's world where you are bombarded with information that reinforces your world view. So it's always interesting to hear different perspectives of people experiencing a new culture and a new way of living. What they often realize is that just because they have done things a certain way their whole lives, it's not the only way. It opens their minds.

In this episode, I have my dear friend Yuwa who just would not stop throwing her knowledge and deep analysis left and right. Wow just wow. I hope this episode will help demystify the popularity of K-Pop and BTS and be a gateway for all newcomers to try some great new music.

If any of these topics sound familiar -- Black Pink, Crash Landing on You, 7 steps skincare routines, tteokbokki -- my friends, you have been hit by the Korean Wave. In this episode, I went through an analysis of Hallyu or the Korean Wave: how it got started, why Korea has been so successful at spreading its culture, the impact it has on all of us, and much more.

In the first season, I will be sharing with you all things Korean-related. Why, you ask? Why not! Korea is the talk of the town right now (and I guess it has been for a while). But to be honest, I really just got on this bandwagon. In the very first episode, I dive into what got me into k-dramas, some recommendations and lessons learned from watching these shows (you can learn from anything, am i rite?).
