    It's Okay, That's Love

    It's been a minute, but your Afternoonas are back with a deep dive with the 2014 drama, It's Okay, That's Love. This was a request from our podcast middle child, Lia, who thought Megan might like the drama and was pretty sure Amy wouldn't like the drama, and guess what? We all loved it! So hop on board and join us as we discuss such hard-hitting topics as sandals, sex on the beach, and throwing tomatoes. BUT FOR REAL, FOLKS, this drama has some incredible twists and turns, so we urge you to watch at least through episode four if you don't want one of the twistiest twists spoiled for you. Otherwise, hop on board the sandal-slapping train for one wild ride! K-Pop Rec: ROSÉ & Bruno Mars "APT" Ready to download your first audiobook?

    Lia is dropping in hot with a snack-sized episode celebrating her new release Puck and Prejudice and 3 K-dramas that use isekai (water portals) which served as her inspiration: Splash, Splash Love, Moon Lovers, and Mr. Queen. She also says she'll talk about the election and the world and romance for just a second, but spoiler: it's more than a second. Anyway...her first book in seven years is out and you should check it out for good karma, K-drama easter eggs, and good vibes. Grab your copy here Ready to download your first audiobook?

    Second Lead SOS

    We were long overdue for this one! Welcome to our 2024 installment of Second Lead SOS where we take a beloved second lead from a drama, one who did NOT get a romantic happily ever after (or in Lia's case, did not even get to live), and we write them the story we know they deserve. Do our choices surprise you? Would you watch these dramas if they actually existed? Do you have a second lead you'd like us to consider the next time we do an SOS?
