YA GIRL'S KDrama Podcast Maddie, Christina and Elle

Serendipity’s Embrace or do you mean SHAGGYTOWN’S Embrace?! IYKYK.



This new drama stars Kim Su-Hyeon (My Lovely Liar, Love Alarm) and Chae Jong-Hyeop (Castaway Diva, Eye Love You). It is about meeting your first love (Shaggytown’s first love) by fate years later.



In this Through Two, Maddie & Christina discuss the two leads, how the plot isn’t the strongest, and are very curious about what will happen next. They also talk ad nauseam about Chae Jong-Hyeop (correction: MADDIE DOES) and how they are looking forward to seeing his character open up more. Flash that sweet smile, Chae Jong-Hyeop! 



This is an eight-episode drama and can be found on Viki.

SURPRISE! Elle and Christina are back for a midway review of Miss Night & Day and they honestly didn't think they would still be watching. This drama continues to surprise them with the fantastic female leads.



In this episode, the ladies debrief about episodes three through eight and discuss theories, thoughts, and predictions they have. The slow burn between Mi-Jin and Ji-Ung is getting a little too slow and EVERYONE is waiting for them to get together (or for Ji-Ung to FINALLY ADMIT HIS FEELINGS). Yes? Yes. 



Miss Night & Day is a 16-episode drama and is airing on Netflix.

The review for The Atypical Family is finally here! SHAGGY DADDY FOR PRESIDENT. 



In this review, Maddie and Christina dissect the amazing character development, stunning OST, agree that I-na’s storyline was top-notch, and why they (Christina) love Gwi-Jui so very much. Gwi-Jui carried this show ON HIS BACK. Jang Ki-Yong, you did well, buddy.  



This 12-episode drama kept everyone guessing and wanting more each week. Sadly, this show has ended, but WHAT A WAY TO END, right? 



The Atypical Family can be watched on Netflix.

Robot vibes are the best vibes, right? (Especially when the male lead can’t distinguish between a robot and a human.) Maddie and Christina have watched half of I’m Not a Robot and have MANY thoughts. 



The ladies love the leads, but find that everything else not involving them in the drama doesn’t need to be there. The ex-boyfriend is a huge red-flag, Ji-ah needs to advocate more for herself, and Kim Min-kyu with a K should attend a class to help him figure out the difference between robots and humans. 



All jokes aside, the leads are SO likable, and Maddie & Christina are WAITING for them to get together because human Ji-ah is pretty awesome (with her cute short hair, too). 



I’m Not a Robot can be found on Viki. This was a fun episode to record - enjoy!

Christina & Elle watched the first two episodes of Miss Night & Day and they like the premise so far! They love the leads (both young & old Mi-Jin) and find the male lead super swoony with all the umbrella-saving he does. The actress Lee Jung-Eun is doing a phenomenal job acting as twenty-eight-year-old woman.



In this Through Two, the ladies talk about how funny this show is, how they have empathy for the female lead, and contemplate on whether or not they will continue watching the drama since a new murder element has been introduced. 



One thing is for certain: Mi-Jin deserves EVERYTHING. PROTECT HER AT ALL COSTS.



Miss Night & Day is a 16-episode drama and is airing on Netflix.
