E46 Summertime Sparking Joy: A Pop Culture Roundup (CDrama Brain Rot Edition): "I don't know how you live like this..."

Due to circumstances entirely within our control, we interrupt your regularly scheduled SLL programming for a special summer edition of our What’s Sparking Joy: Pop Culture Round Up.  In addition to checking in about what we’ve been watching, reading, and listening to so far this year, we each share three pieces of media that continue to live rent free in our heads.

Lit Discussed this Episode: Lost You Forever Season 2 (no spoilers), Challengers, There's a Door in this Darkness, A Sign of Affection, The Princess Royal, The Bear, and The Midnight Romance in Hagwon Content Warning: Familial de*th is mentioned twice in this episode, at (26:12) and again at (48:40)
