Girl, you're a millionaire now. Put down the toilet phone! Judy and Robert get tipsy as they ramble about episode 3 of "Memories of the Alhambra" (알함브라 궁전의 추억), a TVN drama starring Park ShinHye and Hyun Bin.
We have to give credit where it's due. Could it be that all of the flaws in the video game were actually intended by the screenwriter to hint at an interesting twist in this "magical" game?
Of course, the "magic" that Hyun Bin's character keeps talking about seems to be basically money.

This week's theme is: "That's not how [insert plot device] works!" Judy and Teresa are befuddled by episodes 21-24 of “Ms Ma, Nemesis” (미스 마), an SBS mystery drama starring Kim YoonJin and Jung WoongIn.
Kim YoonJin is doing the lord's work this week, portraying both Ms Ma and also the doppleganger Writer. Judy gets disproportionately upset with a piece of jewelry. Teresa wants Ms Ma to adopt Eyeliner Kid (Choi SeungHoon) to form a Revenge Family.

Judy and Teresa's heads are spinning from the twists and turns in episodes 17-20 of “Ms Ma, Nemesis” (미스 마), an SBS mystery drama starring Kim YoonJin and Jung WoongIn.
The Actress (Yoon HaeYoung) continues to be a self-absorbed idiot, and her easily preventable death at the end of this week means that she can't even be useful to Ms Ma (Kim YoonJin) as a witness for her daughter's case, so thanks for nothing. The Photographer's (Park MinJi) motives are so vague that her story arc doesn't have the tragic oomph that it deserved.
You know which mystery manga series does tragic backstories very well? Check out "The Kindaichi Case Files". They are GREAT. Judy just keeps forgetting to mention them in the podcast.

Teresa, come back and save Judy! Join Judy and Robert for this super casual chat in which they struggle to focus on second episode of "Memories of the Alhambra" (알함브라 궁전의 추억), a TVN drama starring Park ShinHye and Hyun Bin.
This episode really didn't do anything to make us like Hyun Bin's douchebag CEO character. We were hopeful for Park ShinHye's character for a split second until she went back to grovelling, just because she finds out he's rich. We just wanted more dorky, nonsensical video game bits.

Happy New Year! Judy is joined by special guest, Robert, to talk about the first episode of "Encounter" (남자친구), yet another TVN winter drama starring Park BoGum and Song HyeKyo.
Robert is surprised that this show is also from TVN, seeing as how it's shot and edited exponentially better than "Memories of the Alhambra". Judy is annoyed that the main obstacle to the main characters' romance can be summed up with #RichPeopleProblems. Robert suspects Park BoGum's character of having sinister stalker-y intentions.
