In this shorter episode, you'll hear from Jay and Tim, but also about Mark... that's Mark Kermode.

You could even say that this episode [no. 40] features 3 film critics - Mark, Jay & Tim! Well, it's concerning Mark Kermode, the UK's most-loved film critic and about Korean film or Korean diaspora movies... but Jay also has a film review/interview website (MiniMiniMovie.com) AND Tim returns to our ears - after several episodes without him - and he too occasionally works on reviews related to Korean film.

Essentially though, we chat about Mark Kermode's recent Top 5 films of 2023 and the 3 films which are included in his overall list of the best, which can also be heard in a recent episode of his and Simon Mayo's "Kermode & Mayo's Take" show.

Can you guess which 3 films films these are?

Plus... As mentioned back in episode 37, these slightly shorter, mini-shows are being called the Not So 'Long' Korean Podcast episodes (or 'NoSoLOKoPo') and we will be inserting such 'bite-sized' or 'subject specific' Korean related episodes into our Series [or Seasons;)] every now and then.


[NOTE: As always, a version of this episode will also be available over on our fairly recently created @notsokoreanpodcast YouTube channel - please feel free to subscribe to that!]

CrimeLess: Hillbilly Heist

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.
