Kim and Maddie watched the first three episodes of the new Netflix KDrama, Our Blues, ft. their girl Shin Min-ah (although she is no where to be seen so far) and another seaside village. They discuss the interesting strategy of story telling, try to guess where the show might be going in the next 17 episodes and lament the lack of Kim Woo-bin. They def recommend to all the Seoulmies who are interested, but may not have the time in their schedules to follow closely right now.…

Kim and Maddie review Business Proposal, a show that gave them almost everything they needed ft. literally every single trope known to man (Maddie runs through a full list if anyone is curious lol). They discuss the four main characters, all the moments that had them swooning, and some major weenies (looking at u Minwoo) before diving into feeling let down by the ending. While BP mostly understood the assignment, the commitment to all the tropes eventually was their downfall. .....

Following the finale of the very recently concluded KDrama, Twenty Five Twenty One (which #falseadvertising they were those ages for 2 seconds), Kim and Maddie spend the first few minutes of this review trying to figure out where they felt the most let down before jumping into the typical SEOULMATES categories. Topics discussed include: the real ship being friendship (seriously those Hee-do/Yu-rim hugs steal the show ppl), Moon Ji-woong and his long list of smooth one liners, Nam Joo-hyuk's acting range (also his stellar running form bc idk if you knew but he's an ~athlete~), and rooting for Hee-do (major props to Kim Tae-ri for slaying this role, what a queen). .....

Before Kim and Maddie intro their newest segment, they spend approx 10 minutes screaming about the BinJin wedding that took place last week. #willnevergetoverit Then they have their first ever Trailer Talk, where they watch some kdrama trailers and try to piece it all together, then check in with the actual official summary before realizing it's still impossible to know anything until watching the show.

Kim and Maddie took a big pivot this week and spontaneously started binging the 2015 Kdrama, Oh My Venus. The plot is problematic, but the two leads are intruiging and their chemistry is already off the charts. Plus the three musketeers ft. our boy John Kim, the Korean Snake, and yet another kdrama character named Ji-woong are a dream. (Spoiler alert: after recording we binged three more episodes so it's a Yah for us!)…

Kim and Maddie are halfway through Business Proposal (this is technically an After 6 lol) and wanted to do a quick check-in. They talk through the first half, make some predictions for the second half, and then answer the classic 10 questions from the red solo cup. Topics discussed include: Kang Tae-moo's impeccable fashion, Kim Se-jeong's comedic range, our second lead couple stealing the show, one recast wish, and the best skinship moment (it's so obvious Kim couldn't even breathe between the question and the answer lol).…

Brb crying because we're halfway through Twenty Five Twenty One and we don't want it to ever end!! Kim and Maddie hopped on the mics to answer some questions, including: biggest plot twist, biggest laugh, tastiest food, and more. They didn't draw a question about outfits, but they run through some favs anyways, including: the Korean national team atheisure (FILA hook us up), Hee-do's tomboy looks, Moon Ji-woong's green sweater vest, and of course, our boy Nam Joo-hyuk in anything and everything - from a plain navy tshirt to a suit and everything in between. Also the glasses. #bless ..... QUESTIONS: Best OST Moment (3:35), Dreamiest Scenery (5:08), Biggest Plot Twist (6:23), Who would we re-cast?

For all the Seoulmies who have been asking for the deets from the Eric Nam concert experience, this ep is for you. Kim and Maddie detail some backstory for their pal (and hopefully future boss?) Brian - CEO of DIVE Studios. (If he ever decides to listen ofc - skip to 8:35 for the rest of the Seoulmies who know this). Kim and Maddie talk through the events of meeting Bri Bri in the flesh, and also discuss the actual concert (to quote Eric: "once you've seen me, every other concert will feel lame." and tbh, he may be right). Tl;dr - Maddie low key blacked out, we actually met Brian way faster than imagined, and Eric Nam is the king of bops and body rolls.…

Kim and Maddie watched the first two epsiodes of yet another currently airing Netflix original, Business Proposal ft. every single Kdrama trope known to man! They discuss the ridiculous nature of the show so far, but talk through why it's working for them. Reasons include: the plot set up (tropey but we aren't complaining - fake dating! catfishing! long, drawn-out, slow mo sequences! give us more!!!!), Shin Ha-ri's unhingedness (and why it's relatable), bff vibes (both the girls and the #bromance), Ahn Hyo-seop's face, and Kim Min-kyu's face. Actual comps made: Hannah Montana, Lizzie McGuire, What's Wrong with Secretary Kim and 1% of Something. Warning: this ep is about as unhinged as Ha-ri is in both her forms running away from Pres Kang sorry not sorry.…

Kim and Maddie gave the first two episodes of Thirty Nine (currently airing on Netflix) a try after it was requested by many Seoulmies and it more than exceeded their expectations. It's a sweet story of friendship and love ft. some cute boys, a definite weenie, and some uncertain futures for our main characters. Shout out to unnie and sweet little Hoon from the orphanage, they might be the real MVP's! But also to our three leading ladies (Son Ye-jin you are a QUEEN), their chemistry as friends really carries this show so far.…

Kim and Maddie were a couple of days late to the first two episodes of Twenty Five Twenty One, but man they did not disappoint! They came to this currently airing kdrama for their boy Nam Joo-hyuk, but might be staying more for Kim Tae-ri as Na Hee-do. They discuss her feistiness, the way she's seamlessly pulling off a high school character (the dramatics, the tears, you name it!!!), and why Baek Yi-jin seems so intruiged by her already. They also talk through what is known about Yi-jin's backstory at this point and enjoying an ~edgy~ NJH character. Other notes include: our smooth talking sk8r boi Moon Ji-woong, the hard to read gold medalist Ko Yu-rim (all aboard the ship ppl!!!) and potential answers to the biggest question of the whole show.…

Kim and Maddie recently revisited Maddie's first Kdrama ever, The Liar and His Lover (2017) and figured it was about time for a full review. They discuss sweet So-rim winning prod K over, Han-gyul ~eventually~ figuring out how to balance music + relationships, and the real ship - Crude Play's leader Shi-hyun and the sole employee of Sole Music Soo-yeon (also a noona romanca aka Maddie's dream lol). Other talking points include: Crude Play being the real MVPs (seriously the amount of grace those boys give Han-gyul is impressive), going back and forth between Chan-young being a weenie but also feeling a little bad for him, and of course, mini rankings of Crude Play's discography / the various versions of 'I'm Okay.' .....
