Emotional Kdramas (aka . . . Kdramas to make you cry), Workplace Romance, and the Joy of Lists
S1 E10 / Nas from the Swoon Diaries Podcast joins me to talk about her favorite Kdramas, focusing on those emotional stories that pull at our heartstrings.
🏢 We also chat about the office workplace trope, exploring why the setting is a staple of Kdramas and why chaebol romances and found family vibes are often paired up.
📝 Additionally, we dive into the joy of list-making, discussing how many Kdrama fans (including Nas and myself!) love to organize our viewing experiences and keep track of favorite shows.
