In this week’s episode of your favorite Korean Adoptee podcast, the Janchi Boys kick off 2024 the only way they know how….with a solo! The Banquet Boys catch up with each other post-holiday season, if we had any adoption-related holiday situations, and how we navigate Asian spaces. They also look ahead at the year to come.
Later, they snack on a drink (spoiler alert: it’s watermelon-y!). Also, VOICEMAILS!

The Janchi Show Quick Bio
We’re three Korean Adoptees spread out around America and each of us are at different stages in life. We’ll talk about the Korean adoptee experience from our perspectives and learn more about our shared culture, usually with food. And it won’t just be the three of us; each week we’ll have other adoptees from all over the world joining us to talk about what makes us similar and what makes us unique. So join the party!
// Meet the Janchi Boys!
