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!

We are starting a new series today where we examine a first episode for all its conflicts and tropes. Today's pick is Megan's choice: I Am Not A Robot. We get into why the first scene is so epic, why the conflict is dripping with butter, and why it makes us want to watch more.

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.

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? We can't wait to hear what you think!

On today's episode we unleash some of your noonas' deepest, darkest secrets...like Amy being a cheerleader in high school, Lia's questionable behavior at a Green Day concert when she was fourteen, and Megan's college encounter with a stairway beer bong. Don't worry...we ask and answer a lot of questions about K-Dramas too, thanks to our fantastic patrons! What is Chekov's gun, and how does it relate to K-Drama and our writing? Should we stick with a drama where the story doesn't grip us but the main character does? Have we ever challenged our genre preferences and won? Join us for 2024's August Uncensored!

Today Amy and Lia have the pleasure of talking to costume designer/maker Lynne Martens who scored a press pas to L.A.'s K-Con and got to breathe the same air as Park Min-Young, Rowoon, Kim Soo-Hyun, and Taemin, to name a few. We loved getting to hear Lynne's K-Drama and K-Pop origin story, how she's only two Kevin Bacons away from Ji Chang-Wook and Lee Min-Ho, and of course what it was like to brave the chaotic joy of K-Con! You can find Lynne on Instagram and TikTok at @hallyuwithme and @hallyu.with.me. Check out her YouTube Channel (also @hallyuwithme) for all the K-Pop and K-Drama joy. And for some fabulous K-Pop fan art, head on over to hallyuwithme.com!

When someone whispers "angsty" about a drama, buckle up! You're in for a ride that could twist your insides like a pretzel and possibly leave you ugly-crying into your mattress. So, what's your flavor? Are you the type who thrives on emotional turbulence, eagerly lapping up every tear and heartache? Or do you prefer your stories fluffy as a cloud, with just a pinch of angst to keep things interesting? We explore the highs, the lows, and everything in between. Get ready to talk about dramas that made us writhe, cry, and maybe throw a pillow or two at our screen (gently, of course).
