K-Drama My Eyes Out

WHO WANTS TO HIRE LINDA TO WRITE THE SEQUEL? Judy and Linda absolutely loved "KPop Demon Hunters" (케이팝 데몬 헌터스), starring Arden Cho, May Hong, Yoo JiYoung and Ahn HyoSeop.     Digressions:   0:56 - Listener E-mails! 10:38 - Judy watched season 2 of "The Devil's Plan" (데블스 플랜), and was annoyed by most of it, but especially furious about the ending. 14:18 - Linda is making the most of her Apple TV+ subscription by watching "The Buccaneers", which is about a group of American debutantes marrying up in the British upper class.  17:41 - "The Blue Castle" a rom-com novel written by Lucy Maud Montgomery. It's a delightful story about an "old maid" finding her own power and rediscovering happiness in her life. You can find it free online at the Gutenberg Project. 21:01 - "Good Boy" (굿보이) is the latest Park BoGum drama, about athletes who have been recruited into the police force. It's surprisingly violent, so beware! 24:39 - Judy's current video game is a fantasy RPG called "Avowed". The writing is good, the gameplay is fine, but the main draw is Brandon Keener, who played Judy's boyfriend in the "Mass Effect" series.     Some Korean terms: 조선: [jo-seon] Korean dynasty from 1392 to 1897. 도깨비: [do-kkae-bi] goblin. 김밥: [gim-bap] rice roll. 라면: [ra-myun] Korean instant noodles. 사자: [sa-ja] emissary. 저승사자: [jeo-seung-sa-ja] grim reaper; literally "hell's emissary". 갓: [gat] traditional horsehair hat from Joseon dynasty. 싸자: [ssa-ja] "Let's expel waste!"       Audio clips: AVAWAVES - "The Buccaneers" - "The Buccaneers" Venus Theory - "Avowed" - "The Avowed" EJAE, Audrey Nuna, Rei Ami - "KPop Demon Hunters" - "How' It's Done"     Please send any questions, comments or suggestions on Facebook, Twitter and Instagram (@kdramamyeyesout) or e-mail us (kdramamyeyesout(at)gmail.com).   You can become our patron at patreon.com/kdramamyeyesout for as little as $1 per month!     Download this and other episodes and while you're there, write us a review:   Apple Podcasts   Google Podcasts   Spotify   Libsyn RSS   The KDMEO theme music is 'Relaxing Ballad', by Alexander Nakarada (www.creatorchords.com) Licensed under Creative Commons BY Attribution 4.0 License https://creativecommons.org/licenses/by/4.0/

IF YOU DIDN'T CRY, YOU'RE A MONSTER. Judy and Linda give up on trying not to cry through their discussion of the latter half of "When Life Gives You Tangerines" (폭삭 속았수다), starring IU, Park BoGum, Moon SoRi and Park HaeJoon.     Our next episode will cover KPop Demon Hunters, an animated movie coming out on Netflix on June 20! It stars Arden Cho and Ahn HyoSeop. Are you excited for Linda's incandescent rage? Judy is!     Digressions:   1:17 - New Patreon donor and Listener E-mails! 13:29 - Linda watched the latest Marvel movie, "Thunderbolts" and was glad to see it get back to its snarky humour and fun! 14:57 - Judy was on the edge of her seat during season 2 of "Andor", and is so sad that there will be no more. Time to watch "Rogue One"! 16:52 - If you're a fan of ballet and dancing, Linda recommends "Etoile", a "Gilmore Girls"-esque show set in New York and Paris. 19:35 - Judy is playing "It Takes Two", a fun co-op puzzle platformer game. It's basically like "Honey, I Shrunk the Kids", if you remember that 1989 gem.     Some Korean terms: 파투: [pah-too] to call off (as in a wedding). 우리 집 안 보게 하고 살게: [oo-ri-jip-an-bo-geh-ha-go-sal-geh] 얼씨구: [eol-ssi-goo] exclamation of surprise admiration as in, "Hooray!" or "Look at you!"; can be used sarcastically as in, "Yeah right!" 저승사자: [jeo-seung-sa-ja] grim reaper. 앵벌이: [aeng-beol-ee] begging. 부족하다: [boo-jok-ha-da] to be lacking. 있어보이다: [eet-seo-bo-ee-da] to look fancy; literally "to look like you have it".       Audio clips: Son Lux - "Thunderbolts" - "Thunderbolts" Nicholas Britell - "Andor" - "Main Title" Kristofer - "It Takes Two" - "Deadly Disco"     Please send any questions, comments or suggestions on Facebook, Twitter and Instagram (@kdramamyeyesout) or e-mail us (kdramamyeyesout(at)gmail.com).   You can become our patron at patreon.com/kdramamyeyesout for as little as $1 per month!     Download this and other episodes and while you're there, write us a review:   Apple Podcasts   Google Podcasts   Spotify   Libsyn RSS   The KDMEO theme music is 'Relaxing Ballad', by Alexander Nakarada (www.creatorchords.com) Licensed under Creative Commons BY Attribution 4.0 License https://creativecommons.org/licenses/by/4.0/

FYI - I CRIED EDITING THIS. Judy and Linda try not to outright sob through their discussion of "When Life Gives You Tangerines" (폭삭 속았수다), starring IU, Park BoGum, Moon SoRi and Park HaeJoon.     Digressions:   0:57 - New Patreon donor and Listener E-mails! 12:21 - Judy watched "Twisters", starring Glen Powell and Kiernan Shipka. It just didn't have the same charm as the 1996 film. Boo. 14:20 - Linda was surprisingly absorbed by "1883" and "1923", prequels to "Yellowstone". Who knew she would be so into Westerns? 18:08 - Judy read "Convenience Store Woman" by Sayaka Murata and was fascinated by the POV of the main character and her unusual way of dealing with the pressure to conform in society. 20:30 - Judy watched "Indiana Jones and the Dial of Destiny" and couldn't believe she slept through the climax. Yikes.      Some Korean terms: 감사합니다: [gam-sa-hap-ni-da] "thank you", formally. 폭삭 속았수다: [pok-sak-sok-at-soo-da] "thank you for your hard work", in Jeju dialect. 사랑에 빠진게 죄가 아니잖아: [sa-rang-eh-ppa-jin-geh-jweh-ga-a-ni-jan-a] "It's not a crime to fall in love". 해녀: [heh-nyeo] traditional Korean women divers. 잠녀: [jam-nyeo] Jeju dialect for "해녀". 배째: [beh-jjeh] "I will never give in"; literally "slit open your belly". 짜증나: [jja-jeung-na] "I'm so annoyed". 삐뚤어지다: [ppi-ddool-eo-jeot-seo] to be bent; to go down the wrong path, in reference to a delinquent person. 제사: [jeh-sa] death ritual.     Audio clips: Brian Tyler - "1883" - "1883 Theme" John Williams - "Indiana Jones and the Dial of Destiny" - "Auction at Hotel L'Atlantique" 김정미 (Kim JungMi) - "봄" (Spring)     Please send any questions, comments or suggestions on Facebook, Twitter and Instagram (@kdramamyeyesout) or e-mail us (kdramamyeyesout(at)gmail.com).   You can become our patron at patreon.com/kdramamyeyesout for as little as $1 per month!     Download this and other episodes and while you're there, write us a review:   Apple Podcasts   Google Podcasts   Spotify   Libsyn RSS   The KDMEO theme music is 'Relaxing Ballad', by Alexander Nakarada (www.creatorchords.com) Licensed under Creative Commons BY Attribution 4.0 License https://creativecommons.org/licenses/by/4.0/

HOW CAN A DRAMA GO FROM BEING TEDIOUS IN THE FIRST HALF TO DEVASTATING IN THE LATTER HALF. Judy and Linda watched "Melo Movie" (멜로무비), a Netflix drama starring Choi WooSik, Park BoYoung, Lee JunYoung, Jeon SoNee and Kim JaeWook.     Digressions:   0:46 - Listener E-mails! 17:28 - Judy is playing "Dragon Age: The Veilguard", but isn't romancing anybody! So far, the story feels a bit nebulous, but the gameplay feels great and she's enjoying it! Judy uses the wrong pronouns for the character of Taash, because she hasn't gotten to the point in the game where they confirms their pronouns as they/them. Sorry! 21:56 - Linda was hooked by the end of the first episode of "Paradise", starring James Marsden and has binged the entire first season! Check it out! 24:57 - Judy watched "The Witcher: Sirens of the Deep" animated film on Netflix, and it was goofy fun but we were not expecting straight up Little Mermaid. 27:04 - Linda watched "THE MOON" (더문)  starring D.O. about a lone astronaut who survives a disaster on the moon.     Some Korean terms: 솔의 눈: [sol-eui-noon] pine bud;     Audio clips: Hans Zimmer - "Dragon Age: The Veilguard" - "Dragon Age: The Veilguard Main Theme" Siddhartha Khosla - "Paradise" - "Welcome to Paradise" Joseph Trapanese - "The Witcher: Sirens of the Deep" - "Allamorax Attack" 하람 (feat. 기탁) - "더문" (THE MOON) - "The Moon"     Please send any questions, comments or suggestions on Facebook, Twitter and Instagram (@kdramamyeyesout) or e-mail us (kdramamyeyesout(at)gmail.com).   You can become our patron at patreon.com/kdramamyeyesout for as little as $1 per month!     Download this and other episodes and while you're there, write us a review:   Apple Podcasts   Google Podcasts   Spotify   Libsyn RSS   The KDMEO theme music is 'Relaxing Ballad', by Alexander Nakarada (www.creatorchords.com) Licensed under Creative Commons BY Attribution 4.0 License https://creativecommons.org/licenses/by/4.0/

TIME FOR FIRST IMPRESSIONS IN WINTER 2025!   Judy and Linda watched "The Trauma Code: Heroes on Call" (중증외상센터), "The Trunk" (트렁크), "When the Phone Rings" (지금 거신 전화는), and "The Queen Who Crowns" (원경).   We will start covering "Melo Movie" (멜로무비) starring Choi WooSik and Park BoYoung in March. Hope it's good!   Digressions:   1:18 - Listener E-mails! 4:27 - Judy watched "The Unbearable Weight of Massive Talent", starring Nicholas Cage and Pedro Pascal. It was a delightful meta action comedy, and you should check it out! 5:52 - Linda watched Part 2 of "Alienoid" (외계+인), and found a massive plot hole. 7:54 - Judy finished playing "Baldur's Gate 3" and is suffering from post-game depression once more. Time to catch up on the jillion games on her backlog! 9:51 - Linda watched the second season of "Night Agent" on Netflix, which is good to have on in the background.     11:59 - "When the Phone Rings" (지금 거신 전화는) is an MBC drama starring Yoo YeonSeok and Chae SooBin. Some things definitely work better as a webtoon. 31:04 - "The Queen Who Crowns" (원경) is a tvN drama starring Cha JooYoung and Lee HyunWook. The first episode is definitely scattered and hard to follow, but it shows much promise in terms of exploring the story of a very influential queen in Korean history.  42:19 - "The Trunk" (트렁크) is a Netflix drama starring Gong Yoo and Seo HyunJin. This one is weird, but we liked it? 49:55 - "The Trauma Code: Heroes on Call" (중증외상센터) is a Netflix drama, starring Ju JiHoon. Just don't take it too seriously.     Audio clips: Mark Isham - "The Unbearable Weight of Massive Talent" - "Score Suite" 이병훈 (Lee ByungHoon) - "외계+인" (Alienoid) - "외계인" (Alien 1) Borislav Slavov - "Baldur's Gate 3" - "Main Theme Part I" Robert Duncan - "Night Agent" - "End Credits"     Please send any questions, comments or suggestions on Facebook, Twitter and Instagram (@kdramamyeyesout) or e-mail us (kdramamyeyesout(at)gmail.com).   You can become our patron at patreon.com/kdramamyeyesout for as little as $1 per month!     Download this and other episodes and while you're there, write us a review:   Apple Podcasts   Google Podcasts   Spotify   Libsyn RSS   The KDMEO theme music is 'Relaxing Ballad', by Alexander Nakarada (www.creatorchords.com) Licensed under Creative Commons BY Attribution 4.0 License https://creativecommons.org/licenses/by/4.0/

Our first attempt at ASMR! 9:08 - New Patreon donor and Listener E-mails! 17:44 - "Borderlands" movie is irredeemably awful, and Judy can't figure out who is was made for, other than the actors who were extremely bored during the pandemic. 21:12 - Gasp! Linda watched "Revenant" (악귀) starring Kim TaeRi? New horizons have opened up! 24:02 - "Gladiator II" was so disappointing. If you have such an uncharismatic lead character, who am I supposed to root for? Judy is mad that there isn't enough Pedro Pascal.  29:03 - Linda finally watched "Mister Sunshine" (미스터 션샤인) and found it to be beautiful but long. 32:40 - Judy's new dinnertime show is "White Collar", starring Matt Bomer and Tim DeKay. 34:50 - Linda watched "Blitz" starring Saoirse Ronan on Apple TV, which is excellent for historical reference but aimless as a film. 37:55 - Judy started playing "Indiana Jones and the Great Circle", and is thrilled that she gets to be the whip-cracking archaeologist.  40:47 - Linda watched Part 1 of "Alienoid" (외계+인), and found it...interesting.     Some Korean terms: 솔의 눈: [sol-eui-noon] pine bud; literally "eye of pine" 머리까지 시원해지는 느낌: [meo-ri-kka-ji-shi-won-heh-ji-neun-neu-kkim] "cooling sensation to the top of your head". 파스: [pah-seu] pain relief patch for muscle ache. 뻔데기: [ppeon-deh-gi] silkworm chrysalis. 고구려: [go-goo-ryeo] kingdom in the Korean peninsula from approximately 500BCE to 918AD. 공기: [gong-gi] Korean game, similar to jacks. 제기: [jeh-gi] Korean version of hacky sack. 김밥: [gim-bap] rice roll.     Audio clips: 주인로 (Joo InRo) - "악귀" (Revenant) - "신내림" Harry Gregson-Williams - "Gladiator II" - "Overture" Hans Zimmer - "Blitz" - "September 1940" Gordy Haab - "Indiana Jones and the Great Circle" - "The Great Circle" 이병훈 (Lee ByungHoon) - "외계+인" (Alienoid) - "외계인" (Alien 1) 정재일 (Jung JaeIl) - "오징어게임" (Squid Game" - "그때 그 시절" (Way Back Then)     Please send any questions, comments or suggestions on Facebook, Twitter and Instagram (@kdramamyeyesout) or e-mail us (kdramamyeyesout(at)gmail.com).   You can become our patron at patreon.com/kdramamyeyesout for as little as $1 per month!     Download this and other episodes and while you're there, write us a review:   Apple Podcasts   Google Podcasts   Samsung Podcasts Spotify   Libsyn RSS   The KDMEO theme music is 'Relaxing Ballad', by Alexander Nakarada (www.creatorchords.com) Licensed under Creative Commons BY Attribution 4.0 License https://creativecommons.org/licenses/by/4.0/

OKGYEONG, HOW COULD YOU.

Even if you know nothing about League of Legends videogame, you won't regret checking out this beautiful work of animation. 8:47 - Linda finished rewatching "Twenty-Five, Twenty-One" (25, 21) and finally understands why they broke up in the end! 11:11 - Judy watched the Netflix series, "Bodies", a sci-fi thriller that starts off really cool, but why do they always aim for a second season that they're probably not gonna get? 14:02 - Linda watched "Wicked", and there's no doubt that the songs are great, but 3 hours for part 1? Yikes.     Some Korean terms: 국극: [gook-geuk] traditional Korean musical theatre. 판소리: [pan-so-ri] traditional Korean singing. 재수없어: [jeh-soo-up-seo] "You're unlucky". 넌 한번도 날 완전히 가진 적이 없어: [neon-han-beon-do-nal-wan-jeon-hee-gah-jin-jeok-ee-up-seo] "You've never once had me completely". 너무 답답했어, 정말: [neo-moo-dap-dap-het-suh-jeong-mal] "I was so frustrated, honestly".     Audio clips: 김태성 (Kim TaeSeong) - "1987" - "그날이 오면" (When The Day Comes) Imagine Dragons - "Arcane" - "Enemy" Jon Opstad - "Bodies" - "Main Title" Ariana Grande - "Wicked" - "Popular"     Please send any questions, comments or suggestions on Facebook, Twitter and Instagram (@kdramamyeyesout) or e-mail us (kdramamyeyesout(at)gmail.com).   You can become our patron at patreon.com/kdramamyeyesout for as little as $1 per month!     Download this and other episodes and while you're there, write us a review:   Apple Podcasts   Google Podcasts   Samsung Podcasts Spotify   Libsyn RSS   The KDMEO theme music is 'Relaxing Ballad', by Alexander Nakarada (www.creatorchords.com) Licensed under Creative Commons BY Attribution 4.0 License https://creativecommons.org/licenses/by/4.0/

JEONGNYEON, NO. JEONGNEYON, YES. Judy and Linda yelled at the screen so much during episodes 5-8 of "Jeongnyeon: The Star Is Born" (정년이), starring Kim TaeRi, Jung EunChae, Shin YeEun and Ra MiRan.     Digressions:   0:51 - Listener E-mails! 11:52 - Linda is re-watching "Twenty-Five, Twenty-One" (스물다섯, 스물하나). Should she finally finish "Mister Sunshine" (미스터션샤인)?  12:30 - Judy watched "Batman: The Caped Crusader" on Prime, and it was reminiscent of the great "Batman: The Animated Series" from the 90s, but with a modern take.     Some Korean terms: 국극: [gook-geuk] traditional Korean musical theatre.       Please send any questions, comments or suggestions on Facebook, Twitter and Instagram (@kdramamyeyesout) or e-mail us (kdramamyeyesout(at)gmail.com).   You can become our patron at patreon.com/kdramamyeyesout for as little as $1 per month!     Download this and other episodes and while you're there, write us a review:   Apple Podcasts   Google Podcasts   Samsung Podcasts Spotify   Libsyn RSS   The KDMEO theme music is 'Relaxing Ballad', by Alexander Nakarada (www.creatorchords.com) Licensed under Creative Commons BY Attribution 4.0 License https://creativecommons.org/licenses/by/4.0/

YOU GOTTA WATCH JEONGNYEON. It's been so long since we've been this excited about a TV show. Judy and Linda are so glad that there are actually interesting K-dramas out now!     Digressions:   1:48 - New Patreon donors and Listener E-mails! 24:52 - Linda watched "Soulmate" (소울메이트), because Byeon WooSeok was in it, and liked it! 27:03 - "Alien: Romulus" was very similar to the original "Alien" movie, but it was a great theatre experience. 35:28 - Linda tried "Welcome to Samdal-ri" (웰컴 투 삼달리) and "Mr. Queen" (철인왕후) and was NOT pleased. 38:23 - "Agatha All Along" is one of the few Marvel shows worth watching on Disney+. Kathryn Hahn continues to be excellent! 40:36 - Linda was so bored that she watched all of "Popstar Academy" on Netflix.  43:19 - Jet Lag: The Game is a Youtube channel that will hook any "Amazing Race" fans! Check it out if you love travelling and drama-free reality shows. 45:32 - "Nobody Wants This" is a series on Netflix with people who actually talk through their relationship problems like adults? Gasp!     48:04 - Linda literally fell asleep approximately 10 minutes into "Dear Hyeri Haeri" (나의 해리에게), starring Shin HyeSun and Lee JinWook. It's from some channel called ENA, but who cares, you guys. If you really want to use "Hyeri" in the English title, then just change the name to 혜리 [SCREEEE].   1:03:11 - "A Virtuous Business" (정숙한 세일즈) is a JTBC show set in the 1990s about small town ladies selling adult products and finding their inner power. It stars Kim SoYeon and Kim SunYoung. Judy is intrigued, but it needs to ramp up soon!   1:12:30 - "Family By Choice" (조립식 가족) is also a JTBC drama starring Jung ChaeYeon, Hwang InYoup and Bae HyunSung. We found the child actors adorable, and really liked the idea of people coming together and depending on each other.    1:27:03 - "Jeongnyeon: The Star Is Born" (정년이) is a tvN drama based on a webtoon about female theatre groups in the 1950s.

DO YOURSELF A FAVOUR. DON'T BOTHER WATCHING THIS DRAMA. Judy and Linda are dumbfounded by "Miss Night and Day" (낮과 밤이 다른 그녀), the JTBC drama starring Jung EunJi, Lee JungEun and Choi JinHyuk.      Since we have decided to abandon this nonsensical show, we will instead be starting "Lovely Runner" (선재 업고 튀어), starring Byeon WooSeok and Kim HyeYoon.       Digressions:   1:09 - Listener E-mails! 10:29 - Linda has started "Lovely Runner" (선재 업고 튀어) and is now hooked! 12:34 - Judy watched "Furiosa: A Mad Max Saga" in the theatres and enjoyed it very much. 15:40 - We've misled you! "Road to Avonlea" is not all free on GazeboTV after all, sadly. There are still some free episodes, so you can still check those out! 16:47 - Judy finally finished watching "Fallout" on Amazon Prime, starring Ella Purnell, Walton Goggins and Aaron Moten. It was a stylish adaptation of a beloved video game series, and you should check it out. Apparently Judy is on an apocalypse kick. 20:21 - Judy and Linda finished watching the third season of "Bridgerton" and it was predictably boring. Who cares anymore about this conflict, you guys. 23:57 - Judy picked up Sophie Kinsella's "The Burnout" on a whim in a physical bookstore!

AS USUAL, I BLAME CONFUCIUS. Judy and Linda wish they got a more down-to-earth storyline with the same characters from "Queen of Tears" (눈물의 여왕), the tvN drama, starring Kim JiWon and Kim SooHyun.   "Miss Night and Day" (낮과 밤이 다른 그녀) is the frontrunner for our next drama to cover. It stars Jung EunJi and Lee JungEun. It looks goofy, but it's the best we got right now. Please let us know what you guys are watching!     Digressions:   1:18 - Listener E-mails! 7:00 - Linda watched "Civil War", starring Kirsten Dunst, and found it thoroughly depressing as the premise becomes ever increasingly plausible.  9:12 - Judy started watching "The Acolyte", starring Lee JungJae, Amandla Stenberg, Manny Jacinto and Carrie-Anne Moss. The editing is a bit odd, but she is loving Lee JungJae's foray into mainstream entertainment. Click here to watch the "PingGyeGo" (핑계고) episode that we talk about! 12:27 - Linda was quickly bored by the second half of "Bridgerton" season 3. More of the same, you guys, more of the same. 14:12 - Judy and Robert were HOOKED on "X-Men '97". If you remember the original animated series from the 90s, you MUST watch. Click here to watch "Road to Avonlea" on GazeboTV!

It's no "The Usual Suspects", but Cho JinWoong was onscreen 95% of the time, so it was still a great time. 37:10 - Linda has been watching "Queen of Tears" (눈물의 여왕) like everyone else in Korea. It stars Kim JiWon and Kim SooHyun. 39:36 - Judy and Robert have been watching the second season of "Physical: 100", as motivation to get healthier in our advanced age. 42:18 - As a history buff, Linda watched "Masters of the Air" on Apple TV+.

We keep calling Kim GoEun by the wrong name.
