  • Binge-listen worthy & Focussed

    I like listening to your conversations and thinking about Kdrama together. Your voice quality is very very good, and that’s a rarity.

    I saved all the kdrama I watched that you discussed cause it’s so comforting to listen to.

    Thank you for creating this podcast!^^

  • In depth discussions

    This podcast is different from my other two favorites: Lee Evie and Afternoona Delight, in that these hosts really discuss dramas episode by episode. I love it that they are organized, prepared, never say “um” or just laugh to fill time. They are fun to listen to and helpful with breaking down some more complicated plot twists. Keep up the great work!

  • Feels Like I Am Hanging Out With My Girlfriends

    Okay so I’ve only listened to a couple episodes so far since I just found my first K Drama (Crash Landing On You), and these girls have a great rapport, and it feels like I am sitting in the living room and chatting with them while we all gush over the episodes being covered!

    Great job girls, as a cohost of my own podcast about Turkish dramas, it’s fun to be on the listening side of a podcast that covers a show I love.

    Big hugs!
