Evie's Korean Drama Podcast Evie

It's Guest Gabble time! Lovely friends from patreon are invited to be guests on the podcast today to rant about any kdrama they have watched that had a truly terrible ending. Like, those Korean drama endings so bad they made you wish you'd never watched the show in the first place. Be warned! This episode is a big, spoilery rant! And also heaps of fun! Special guests are: Vani, D, Katherine, Lorna, Lizzie and Delaney :) Thank you so much to these special guests!!

Here are Evie's top ten favourite kdramas (as of recording in mid-2022) and be warned ... her choices are weird? But she can't help it! These are the Korean dramas that will forever own her heart!!!

Lose your eyes, find your eyes, lose your eyes, and then turn into a big demon smoke, because this week on the show Evie is chatting about the 2021 fantasy romance kdrama RED SKY LOVERS. Starring the beautiful Kim Yoo-jung, Ahn Hyo-sep and Gong Myung, with a fun villain played by Kwak Si Yang, this historical Korean drama started with a bang (so charming, so fun, so swoony!) and then (in Evie's opinion) sort of ended with a small whimper. Buckle up and be warned, Evie didn't adore the end of this one.

Grab some illegal moonshine liquor and then take over the Joseon gangster underworld, all while falling in love with the man hunting you, because this week Evie is chatting about the absolute joy of a historical Kdrama rom-com MOONSHINE, also known as When Flowers Bloom, I think of the Moon. This 2022 fun and fizzy adventure sageuk stars Hyeri as the coolest criminal around and Yoo Seung-ho as the police investigator trying to arrest her (obviously he falls in love with her instead! Brilliant!). This Korean drama also has excellent appearances from second leads Byeon Woo-seok (charming Joseon prince) and Kang Mi-na (another cool sort of criminal! What a girl!). If you hadn't already guessed, Evie loved this one!

Star in a documentary with your worst enemy and bicker your way to love, because this week Evie is chatting about the charming romance kdrama OUR BELOVED SUMMER from 2022. This one was sweet, gentle and romantic, and stars the very cute Choi Woo-sik, Kim Da-mi, and Kim Sung-cheol. This one felt like a summer breeze! 

Climb a mountain, fight a crime and then turn into a ghost (?!) because this week on the show Evie is chatting about the 2021 thriller kdrama JIRISAN. This action and supernatural mountain rescue Korean drama (what a weird genre!) stars Jun Ji-hyun and Joo Ji-hoon, and a whole lot of timelines (four timelines, right?) and is a twisty, twisty show that requires rather a lot of thought! Evie thoughts it was ... fine. It was okay. Visit Evie's Patreon to support the show and for extra episodes: www.patreon.com/EvieKoreanDramaPodcast
