In today’s episode, we really meant to talk about online concerts and the possible future of concert-going. And then we were going to go into new kdramas, new castings, and new rumored casting. And we do, we promise …. just in a roundabout way.

Big news in the swell of the Hallyu wave here in the US. We’re discussing the possible success of Monsta X’s decision to visit almost every city in the US. Or, we talk about it while Stephanie fretts for them. Then we’re talking the excitement of all Parasites Oscar nominations and the idea of the incoming HBO adaptation.

This episode we’re talking about a pretty serious topic — what butt-holes commenters on the internet can be. In particular, we were asked to chime in on an issue going down on Tumblr & Twitter regarding racism in the Kpop fandom… and again… the general butt-holery of the internet. We asked friend and Kpop fan Alexis to join us. We also talk BTS and the AMAs and discuss the reasoning behind those shortened drama episodes.

In this very special episode, the East Coast faction of Kchat Jjigae — handily coined the Kpop Nerd Herd — is fresh off a very special evening with B1A4. We talk all about the concert (spoiler alert for you Banas out there whose concerts haven’t happened yet), a little bit of the Kpop Nerd Herd’s storming of Manhattan, just how B1A4’s skin feels (Hint: Delightful), and how high touches feel (Hint: Awkward).

Another KCON has been put to bed, which means it’s that time again for our KCON wrap up post! Why do we love this particular episode so much? It’s the one time the entire year we not only record from the same side of the country, but we’re in the same space! In this case? A car. On the highway. In the desert. So road noise is a thing. As always with our KCON wrap up episode, it is left completely as is, as in no editing at all. We recorded it and put it directly on the site. (Which is good, because with all the photos left to edit, Stephanie has no time for such shenanigans like editing.) It’s also long. Epically long. But she left that, too. In the episode, we talk about KCON, panels, awesome listener meet ups, and of course, Kpop. Lots and lots of Kpop. Kim Jong Kook, Block B, Monsta X, Lee Min Ho, SHINee, and of course, BTS.

After a few weeks of special episodes, we’re back to just us! It feels weird. Is it weird? We’re hopping right back in, talking about dramas we’re watching, like Another Miss Oh, announcing Stephanie’s KCON NY-adjacent panels, talk meetups, Gong Yoo and Lee Dong Wook, Heechul! Heechul! Heechul! and we, of course, have to talk about #burgerpartyforjungkook. We’re back in the k-saddle again!
