Judy and Teresa finally watched the first season of "Kingdom" (킹덤), the first ever Netflix original K-drama, starring Ju JiHoon and Bae DooNa.
The first thing that will strike you about "Kingdom" is that it is a beautifully shot drama. The writer (Kim EunHee, who also wrote "Signal") knows exactly why we're watching - old-timey zombies - but also sprinkles enough interpersonal drama to keep us interested.
Next week, we start our springtime First Impressions! We'll be talking about "Legal High" (리걸하이) from JTBC, "Touch Your Heart" (진심이 닿다) from TVN and "Romance is a Bonus Book" (로맨스는 별책부록) from TVN. We're so excited!
Digressions:
0:52 - Listener E-mails!
10:15 - What's the Haewon Cho clan?
Audio credits:
Howard Shore - "Lord of the Rings: The Return of the King" – "The Lighting of the Beacons"
Will Judy's voice ever return to normal? It's a distant memory...
