As an American living in Korea, I learn so much from the two of you and love the show! I thoroughly enjoyed your recent episode about Korean dramas as someone who developed a love for K drama while living in Taiwan. I laughed out loud when you brought up the topic of how horrible foreign (or American) actors are when they appear in Korean shows. The first drama that I watched was The Heirs- and am surprised I made it past the horrid American actor in the first couple of episodes. Check it out if you want to see an example of someone who would never be an actor in the States.
A really great podcast!

As a Korean American still exploring my identity and learning more about modern Korean culture through K-dramas like many of us, it’s really very fascinating to hear Daniel and Jun discovering the whys behind some of the unconscious ways they use language and engage in cultural practices. The conversation flows so naturally between these two which makes it an easy listen while still helping us to always learn something new. Thanks Daniel and Jun!
