KDMEO Episode 132 - My Fellow Citizens! (국민여러분!) 5-8

K-Drama My Eyes Out - A podcast by Judy, Linda and Teresa

Categories:

After 5 weeks of hemming and hawing, Judy and Teresa have finally picked "My Fellow Citizens!" (국민여러분!) to cover this spring.  This week, we watched episodes 5-8 of this KBS2 drama starring Choi SiWon, Lee YooYoung and Kim MinJung. If you would like to hear about episodes 1-4, please check out KDMEO episodes 130 and 131. We really liked these 4 episodes. The production team is doing an excellent job at zipping things along and intercutting smoothly between jokes and serious moments. There may also be some rambling about Chairwoman's (Kim MinJung) coats, "Mister Sunshine" (미스터션샤인) and real estate scams. Digressions: 0:56 - "Avengers: Endgame" (spoiler free) 2:18 - "Captain Marvel" (spoiler free) 3:44 - Detective: A Modern Crime Board Game 8:28 - "The Handmaid's Tale" (minor spoilers)   Some Korean terms: 깍두기 [kkak-doo-gi]: kimchi made from radishes cut into small cubes. To see a picture of 깍두기 and imagine the process of turning a human body into that shape, click here.   Audio credits: Alan Silvestri – “Avengers: Endgame” – “Main on End” Pinar Toprek – “Captain Marvel” – “This Isn’t Goodbye” Adam Taylor – “The Handmaid’s Tale” – “The Salvaging”    Please send any questions, comments or suggestions on Facebook, Twitter and Instagram (@kdramamyeyesout) or e-mail us (kdramamyeyesout(at)gmail.com).
