In this unplanned “Eonni’s First Take,” I hit record with zero outline, a warm drink nearby, and a LOT of thoughts. ☕✨

Today we’re talking about my early impressions of the K-drama Game of Witches — including the slow start, my expectations for delicious revenge, and why the first few episodes are giving… tension without payoff (so far).

We also wander into a very real discussion about why aunties ride so hard for daytime dramas, makjang energy, and emotionally chaotic TV. If you grew up hearing soaps in the background or watching dramatic shows with older women in your life, this conversation will feel VERY familiar. 😭

This episode is cozy, honest, slightly chaotic, and deeply relatable — especially if you’re a K-drama fan, enjoy comfort media, are experience burnout, or just wanting something soft to listen to while you fold laundry or rest your brain. 💛

If you love K-drama commentary, revenge plots, makjang chaos, and low-pressure “just talking” episodes, you’re in the right place.

Grab your tea, get comfortable, and let’s unpack why the revenge isn’t revenging (yet). 🎧

On this episode of The Brown Skin Eonni Podcast, the Eonni herself shares her first take on the Korean drama Iron Family.
