This week Jun and Daniel continue their milestone celebration by tackling episodes 34-66 in the second part of their three-part series honoring 100 episodes. From exploring the N-Po Generation's societal pressures to diving deep into Korean concepts like jeong and han, our hosts reflect on their middle third of episodes that covered some of their most meaningful cultural discussions. They revisit topics ranging from the unique Korean rental system to daily life observations, guest interviews with former coworkers and visitors, and media reviews of trending K-dramas and films. The conversation spans cultural phenomena like sports day (운동회), hygiene differences, food debates, and the evolution of Korean-American identity, while the hosts note how this period represented their "sweet spot" with deeper guest perspectives and more challenging topics.
If you're interested in hearing Daniel and Jun's reflections on covering major Korean cultural concepts, their experiences with viral social media content and reaching #1 on Korean podcast charts, insights into the evolution of their episode formats, or simply enjoying their nostalgic journey through episodes covering everything from trending words to Netflix shows, tune in to hear them discuss all this and more! This episode also features discussions about their growth during this golden era of the podcast, memorable interactions with listeners, and how their understanding of Korean culture deepened.
We hope you enjoy listening to our conversation, and we're so excited to have you following us on this journey!

CrimeLess: Hillbilly Heist
It’s 1996 in rural North Carolina, and an oddball crew makes history when they pull off America’s third largest cash heist. But it’s all downhill from there. Join host Johnny Knoxville as he unspools a wild and woolly tale about a group of regular ‘ol folks who risked it all for a chance at a better life. CrimeLess: Hillbilly Heist answers the question: what would you do with 17.3 million dollars? The answer includes diamond rings, mansions, velvet Elvis paintings, plus a run for the border, murder-for-hire-plots, and FBI busts.
