Kchat Jjigae PodcastTipsy With SaraG - Nu'est SchoolThis episode, Stephanie and special guest SaraG drink and talk about Nu'est. Okay.

They finally do the greatly anticipated (by them) podcast where they talk bout the inception, rise, fall, and rise again of Nu'est. We also attempt to talk about the importance of multifandom, but turns out? That part is being broken off for its own episode. To read the complete show notes, please visit the official website.

scandal-filled episode! Although, us making terrible scandal puns
out of newsy topics may not have been quite the scandals she was
looking for. However, as it is the land of Kdrama and Kpop, we were

And as always, we get a little spoilery on Lovesick (and for good measure Scholar Who Walks At Night—not our fault guys—how can you talk about that crazy-pants drama without giving crazy-pants details?)

Kchat Jjigae PodcastKdrama UnwrappedHoly Gdragon, this is the second week in a row we’ve managed to keep the podcast under a manageable level. I’m so proud! This week, we talk about how Cherry and Amber tricked Stephanie into either watching terrible dramas, or not watching dramas at all. We also talk about the rash of injuries in Kdramaland, the results of our BigBang ticket hunt, what we’re watching (or in Stephanie’s case, which fanfiction she’s now reading), answer a question on whether or not it is worth it to go to KCon, and then end up with a discussi...

Kchat Jjigae PodcastKdrama vs All The Other DramasIn this episode, Stephanie was determined to get the podcast to a manageable length. We chat about Chinese dramas, which seems to have taken over our current drama watching, KCon updates, BigBang, comments on comments, we draw the winner for the year anniversary giveaway (thanks for entering guys!), and then we end on something a little different—Stephanie’s Ranty Corner, where she talks about DramaFever’s apparent decision to start carrying BBC programming. All in all, one of the best times we’ve had in a while!

Then, for our celebration we’re answering a basket full of listener questions covering the best and the worst in drama tropes, our favorite romantic moments, high school dramas, and actor swap outs.

Kchat Jjigae PodcastKdrama, Not Korean Soap OperasIn this episode we put our ranty hats on and talk about how delightful we think it is when people call Kdramas "Korean soap operas," and if they can say it while rolling their eyes? Even better! (This is a lie, neither of these things are good.) We talk about what we’re watching and Stephanie lays a big surprise on Cherry Cordial, add on some newsy type stuff and a listener-question-inspired topic about the changes of Kdrama through history which we “Uhhh…” our way through, and you have the perfect recipe for an interesting podcast.

Kchat Jjigae PodcastKdrama Take DownStephanie pauses her current Junsu obsession to discuss the sad demise of the Crazy for Kdrama site. We talk what we know happened, what we think happened, and all the murky details in between. We cover what that means for the future of the podcast, and, most importantly, what bloggers out there can (and should) do to protect themselves. Finally, we move on to what we’re watching (listen for Stephanie butchering the name of a Japanese manga/movie), and then we finish up with a Valentine’s themed “Who Would You.”

Kchat Jjigae PodcastKdrama Film SchoolEver wonder why some dramas look great and some look like poo? Well, it's time for some Kdrama schoolin' here at the Crazy for Kdrama Podcast or, to be more exact, film schoolin' as special guest Sean McFeeley teaches us about the difference of film vs. video and why dramas may choose to use one over the other. We also talk about introducing friends to Running Man, choosing the best episodes to start with, and ask about some of the more memorable games.

Kchat Jjigae PodcastAttack of the Beta Heroes!, Part 1Hey Everyone! I put a little disclaimer on top of our disclaimer in the episode, but Cherry and I ran long — real long. So what we decided to do was split the episode up into two parts, one that will come out today and another which will become live tomorrow. Two times the amount of podcast for the price of one! And that one is free! So really, this is probably the best deal on the internet.
On top of all that? We’re super excited to be doing our first giveaway! So make sure to listen to fi...

Kchat Jjigae PodcastKCON, The AftermathThis podcast is coming straight to you from LA, actually, to be more exact, a car in the middle of the desert. In this episode Cherry Cordial and I record a not-too-short episode with The Mystical Being of Unicorns and Kate, where we talk about KCON, Kdrama sightseeing, bad vacation karma, magical hands and whether I may or may not be currently dating Eric Nam.
As this was recorded in the car, the sound quality is maybe not as perfect as usual, but I think where it lacks in noise reduction, it more than makes up for i...

Kchat Jjigae PodcastBeginnings, Tangents, and Kim Hyun JoongThanks for listening to our first podcast! Today we do the things you do in a first podcast like introduce ourselves, lay out our terrible pronunciation disclaimer, talk about what we're watching, and discuss whether Stephanie's bias is Kim Hyun Joong or if Cherry Cordial is just making things up.
