During our Twice episode, we got into a side conversation about fatphobia and beauty standards prevalent in society and in idol culture and decided that it would be beneficial as its own small episode. It's an issue that deserves a lot more discussion, and we hadn't intended to dive into it when we started the episode so we don't go into as much as we should, but maybe this small start will lead to greater conversations.

This week we are confused and talking about the first four episodes of the kdrama, Sisyphus the Myth on Netflix. Although we do talk about the first four episodes, it's debatable if we actually spoil anything. Or that the drama can even be spoiled at this point. But avoid the episode if you aren't caught up yet.

Editors note: We all are kind of in different states of life right now and access to our normal setups aren't a thing we can guarantee, so the audio may be a little weird and background noises might come up a bit more. Sorry about that. But hey, we've never said we were professional about this.
It's been a week and it just keeps getting crazier. We're a little off-topic this episode, but we figured that talking about what's going on with the world (and our own lives) and how it's affecting us was essential.

In honor of Im Siwan's return to civilian life, we watched the first episode of the kdrama Misaeng (also know as Incomplete Life). We also play a fun Madlibs game and talk about what we're watching and what shows we're looking forward to.
We only spoil the first episode of the show, and discuss a few slight things that happen in some of the later episodes, but it really isn't much and doesn't ruin anything. There is a small Touch Your Heart spoiler, and we did discuss the meaning behind the name Misaeng which is found out later in the series. Times for these spoilers are down in the time codes section.

We also watched the first couple episodes of the kdrama A Thousand Kisses, a family drama that we chose because it was the only drama with "thousand" in the title we could find legally. We like themes, ok?

If you ever wanted to know how we were outside of the podcast, this episode really shows how crazy we are. No real topic, so we decided to talk generally about a number of things including what we are watching, more discussion on Romance is a Bonus Book and Touch Your Heart, upcoming things...and then it basically spirals from there.
There are some minor spoilers, so I added when we talk about them in the time codes. It really isn't anything big, so even if you haven't watched those things it won't ruin it for you.
Next week we'll be back to normal. Maybe.

It's that time of the year, friends, and to keep up with the holiday we decided to dedicate an episode to (almost) everyone's favorite genre: the romcom.

We also talk about the first four episodes of Romance is a Bonus Book and the first two episodes of Touch Your Heart.
During the general talk, we keep it mostly spoiler free sans a few plot points that won't ruin the show (the are from older dramas) but we do talk extensively about the two newest dramas so beware of spoilers in them.

It's our Christmas extravaganza episode! What better way to celebrate the holidays than to hang out with your sisters talking about random kdramas to get you into the festive mood.
Dramaland doesn't have many Christmas specific shows, so we decided to create our own and recast the classic movie White Christmas and our individual holiday favorites. We also watched the first episode of the very-much-not-holiday-themed drama special, White Christmas and discuss what we thought of it (no spoilers!).
