Episode 108: Our recent feature in a BBC article, the return of BTS, Yoon's sentencing and loads more.
Mon Jan 19 2026
In this week’s (month’s ?) episode, we discuss our recent appearance in one of the world’s foremost media outlets, President Yoon’s sentencing, the exploitative practices of Chaebols, and BTS’s return (and the delusion of some of their fans).
We also get into the Trump administration recently acknowledging kimchi as a superfood, a Korean mum jailed for stealing test papers, fruit prices and the lack of football talent in Korea.
Loads more too, including a recent fire in a Gangnam slum, conscription in England, gay dating shows and marital expectations in Korea.
Something for everyone, as usual.
Get on it.
