Welcome to YOUR Korean podcast drama! 

Sarangees, we’re BACK with episode 9 of Genie, Make A Wish — and the plot twists are twistier than ever! Genie and Ka Young are inching closer to uncovering the truth behind Genie’s mysterious 20-year memory gap. We learn that Genie’s brothers Shadi and Zahara pulled the ultimate forbidden move: they swapped the soul of Shadi’s son, Khalid, with the immortal soul of young Hunbish. Now Khalid is gunning for Ka-young’s final wish so he can level up into a supreme being. Angel-nim (or psycho angel ajusshi) confronts young Halmoni/Miju and tells her she can’t avoid death even in a younger boyd. Minji finally uncovers Miju’s true identity, Ppoppi/Kim Gae makes his final wish, and Genie and Ka Young launch a time-travel heist to catch Sangtae in the middle of his LAST murder. And then?? A soft, squeal-worthy moment between Genie and Ka Young to end the episode. We were kicking our feet! We also dive deep into our chaotic Angel-nim himself — Noh Sang-hyun / Steve Noh!
