This week Jun and Daniel review the popular Korean reality dating show "Na Neun Solo" (I Am Solo). They explore the format of the show where six men and six women live together for five days in hopes of finding love, using pseudonyms throughout their stay until revealing their real names during the final confession. From analyzing the various character "types" assigned to contestants, to discussing the show's portrayal of Korean dating culture, our hosts examine what makes this series both entertaining and culturally revealing. Topics include Korean beauty standards, flirting techniques, the concept of "pretending" in relational societies, and the contrast between Korean and American approaches to dating and courtship.

If you're interested in understanding Korean reality TV dynamics, learning about how dating shows reflect cultural values, or simply enjoying Jun and Daniel's reactions to some of the more cringe-worthy moments of Season 24, tune in to hear them discuss all this and more! This episode also features Daniel's careful notes from watching the entire season, Jun's explanations of Korean concepts like "cat-style" faces versus "dog-style" faces, and both hosts' analysis of which pseudonymous character they would be if they appeared on the show themselves.
