Anisa and Paroma chat about Start-Up, the first twelve episodes of Do Do Sol Sol La La Sol (i.e. before that disastrous, bafflingly bad ending), and 18 Again. We also gush over Avatar: The Last Airbender, which Anisa finally watched—and loved, obviously—only fifteen years late. https://soundcloud.com/akdramapodcast/80-tly-start-up-do-do-sol-sol-la-la-sol-18-again Time Stamps: 03:33 Start-Up10:02 Do Do Sol Sol La...

Paroma and our friend Anja de Jager talk about how much they loved Do You Like Brahms?, why they almost dropped it, and why the ending was perfect! As always with our Spoiled Yaks, this episode is FULL of spoilers, so proceed with your eyes open. https://soundcloud.com/akdramapodcast/77-the-spoiled-yak-do-you-like-brahms Find Anja's mystery novels here.

We're still loving this drama, so Paroma and I sat down to enumerate the many ways we keep falling for Joon, Ra-ra, and the gang. Do Do might seem lightweight at first glance, but it's actually surprisingly thoughtful, and does a great job of balancing its darker elements with the characters' inherent optimism, and the...

In this second Long Yak of the month, we discuss the rest of what we watched in October: Korean dramas Search, Alice, and The School Nurse Files.

Saner and I are without our Saya today, because she’s off doing important and busy things, but we have plenty to say about the penultimate week of 18 Again between the two of us. We’ve got revelations, long-awaited conversations, and confessions galore. Much of it was lovely, but there were aspects that drove us to... Continue Reading →
We're back with a Long Yak! We've decided to split our monthly yaks about what we've been watching (which were more like woolly mammoths, let's be real) so that we can get the episodes out to you more quickly and hopefully in a more manageable chunk for your ears! This episode we discuss ongoing shows... Continue Reading →
We're back with a bit more to say on Do Do Sol Sol La La Sol, surprisingly! After its opening weeks, I was convinced the drama would have a satisfying but predictable trajectory that I could sit back and enjoy, but then it hit us with that Episode 5 reveal. Yes, that one, which you've... Continue Reading →
We enjoyed the first weeks of Tale of the Nine Tailed so much that we did a quick first impressions on instagram live (@dramasoverflowers_) last Sunday. Paroma (@festerfaster) was the host, and our guest was Rimi (@_payodhi on Twitter). The audio isn't the greatest, but we thought you may enjoy our glee at this fluffy and... Continue Reading →
