That intro :D T___T :D

Yey, what a great way to start a new week! Just getting of work, I am really excited to hear your comments. Ty, dramagoddesses.

Oh! It's HEREEEEEEE! I will now listen to it! :D

I'm so excited for this! Thank you for all the work and for being so consistent! This podcast is always a big highlight for me :)

I saw cats, and I had to listen.

Ohno, this just became a reminder that I haven't finished watching most of these. T_T

It's here and with dramas I liked, double YAY!!

I liked After the Show Ends, despite how experimental and not perfect it was.

And congrats on the new site. It's going really smoothly and the glitches WERE minimal. :)

I can listen to you two giggle about everything all day.

Thanks for using my favourite piece of the Romantic Doctor Teacher Kim OST. It's just so beautiful!

Agree on most points about Jealousy Incarnate! Took a few episodes to warm up to it but overall awesome quirky fun!

I was laughing throughout the section about Na Pd. His genius is such that even listening to both of you talking about his shows makes it funny.

Honestly, I'm so proud of you guys. I'm just really grateful and impressed that you went back and covered everything. Even revisiting my favorite show again, Jealousy Incarnate! Between the year-end reviews, all the 10-year anniversary features, and the new site, I never expected it. Please don't worry about being too consistent though! I personally enjoy the spontaneity and don't want you guys overworked :)

Btw, I totally know what shot in JI javabeans is referring to. It was when they were introducing the newsroom and it felt off-putting to me too. That said, I think the PD toned it down after that and found the right balance. There were still some long takes when he liked to move the camera around and shift perspective, but the shots never swirled around like they did that first time. In fact, they were pretty expertly used. I still remember this scene in episode 10 when Jo Jung-suk is wandering drunk around the newsroom asking every women he meets (lol, including Lee Mi-sook, his former sister-in-law,) to date him and I just loved the camerawork in this scene, along with his facial expressions and body movements. There was just something so funny about it.

Well, I'm very happy with this podcast because it focused on my personal favorites of 2016, JI and This Week, My Wife Will Have an Affair. Thank you so much for all the hard work!

Why do you do this to me when I need to finish a 12-page history essay?

About This Week, My Wife: Yeahhhh, Kim Hee-won. Because I ultimately did enjoy the resolution to his storyline (I knew they cast the fierce Yeh Ji-won for a reason) I forgave the show for perhaps spending a little too much screen-time on his escapades (which I honestly found quite nauseating).

If I had to pinpoint one underlying issue for me regarding all of it though, I probably just had a really hard time accepting this aspect of the drama's reality: that a married man of Kim Hee-won's caliber could so easily snag any women he wanted when Lee Do-yeon, who is pretty much as attractive as him, was thrown into the storyline again for comic relief & to have a hopeless, unrequited love. It just left a bad taste in my mouth while I was watching the show.

Still, his miserable ending made up for a lot of it. Sometimes a satisfying ending for an arc really can make any discomfort it caused worth it!

I'm so excited. I love y'alls podcasts they brighten up my day and this one came just in time. Thanks for the hard work!

Yoon Kyung Sang's instagram is literally mostly his cats. So cute

Awww, I missed JI! JJS and GHJ was such a dream combo! I hope to see them in another project together!

You are right; it'd be nice if the show had given the other 2 storylines more development because the moms' triangle was hilarious as well! I see potential in that line! ><

Nevertheless, another great comedy from GHJ and JJS.
It makes sucha different when the writing, directing, music, and acting are at the top of their game.... it really makes the show shines! <3
And an ending that actually doesn't sucks? I wouldn't be surprise of an ending that kills the entire drama (because I've seen so many from dramas that were doing so well) but I was so satisfied with the ending, especially the wedding! <3 Icing on a very yummy cake!

Why am I only now seeing this podcast link!

Yay! Podcast!

Thanks, javabeans and girlfriday!

RDTK and 3MAD were the only shows in this installment I watched, so it was great to hear your takes on the others. I also enjoyed hearing the OSTs. JEALOUSY INCARNATE is on my watch list. ;-)

Love the new site, ladies! A huuuuugggge *pat on the back* for all your hard work and efforts - it's seriously payed off!

And thank you for covering Jealousy Incarnate. Just hearing the OST again made me so happy!!

First time podcast listener! This is so amazing and I can't believe I skipped out on this for so long!! Analysis of sitcom feel of the 2 moms in Jealousy Incarnate and wanting more on that storyline really resonated with me!! Them all living together in the end was such a quirky end.

I will say I actually loved Go Gyung Pyo as the second lead. He plays the super nice guy really well and I thought he had great chemistry with Jo Jeong Suk, which was another important aspect of his role. Sung Hoon, to me, comes off as too bratty or emotionally aloof.

This Week and Jealousy are both my last year's favorite also!

Okay, haha, I just have to mention one more thing.

I honestly thought it was so weird, even at the time, that After the Show Ends would employ Ha Suk-jin when he was working on all these other dramas (each pairing him with a different actress). Like, no, really...what was the plan there? If the whole concept was intimacy forming between two leads, then why not find an actor that wasn't the lead of a legit rom-com at the time? If I remember correctly, he was even filming 1% while working on their show.

I'm actually rewatching 1% right now while waiting for new Radiant Office episodes and, well, I can't help hoping JB's theory is true ;)

Jealousy has the same writer as Pasta? Man that explains the similarity in asshole-y male lead character and doormat candy female lead! Jo Jung Suk saves it from going overboard, like I can only stand Lee Sung Kyung's character for 10 episodes (granted Chef is worse, and maybe because it was aired years before and alpha-male was so idolised back then).

I can watch this ensemble of casts for 50 episodes to be honest, I love the sitcom-y feel and the casts really makes it work. I don't normally like office dramas (I dropped Chief Kim and Radiant Office in episode 3) but I can see Jo Jung Suk, the moms, and the chief bicker all day in the office. Or Jo Jung Suk bickering with the doctor and nurse, oh Park Jin Joo is hilarious!

Also, I belatedly realised that Do Bong Soon's dad is the same dude from Jealousy during the wedding scene in final episode of SWDBS when he's all suited up and has his specs on. I remember him being a charismatic anchor in Jealousy and I am awed that he can play the beta-male character well like in DBS too - so well that I don't even recognize both being the same actors, and I watched Jealousy twice!

I had to actually pause the podcast when you were mentioning names for the fantasy casting of Jealousy Incarnate to imagine the suggestions in their roles. AND THEN SUNG HOON'S NAME DROPPED AND I SQUEALED. (I skimmed through the episodes of My Secret Romance today, liked it, then went on a Sung Hoon hunt and watched every single scene on KBSdrama of his love line on Five Children last year oops). Yes suddenly wish that had happened.

I still haven't found a way to watch Awl. :(

Please come back with a new episode soon!! This was so pleasant! I think I may check out the newlywed show!

It's too bad I haven't finished watching This Week My Wife Will Have An Affair.. I watch them subtitled in Chinese, and the version I have doesn't translate the text messages. So, I miss most of the meaning when so much information is conveyed in text on screen, instead of being spoken. At any rate, that's my own problem. And I could easily find another source to watch it on.

A'way, I'm just so happy to listen to podcasts. I could listen to JB and GF talk all day long. Thanks for this, and...I hope more are in the works!

Finally got the time to listen to this podcast while setting up my new account :)

Don't worry, you girls don't have to be on time, as long as you keep them coming.

And Minhyuk is the same age as me, it feels so weird to see him act in dramas.

I felt so alone watching Entourage when it was airing, made worst by the fact that it was such a poor drama and a huge letdown. So glad to hear you sharing your thoughts about the drama, mainly because I agree with everything you said about the show!

Glad to have a new podcast, yey!

I hope we could have one featuring the lastest dramas, SWDBS, ManxMan, etc.

Thanks.
