Dynamite Kiss Episode 1 | Chasing K-Dramas w/ Dulcé Sloan & Chrissy Choi | Korean Drama Podcast

Welcome to YOUR Korean podcast drama! Hello Sarangees! It’s time to start chasing our NEW drama, Dynamite Kiss! Since airing earlier this fall, Dynamite Kiss has become a bona fide hit in Korea and around the world, and it’s easy to see why. This is rom-com heaven, with every episode stuffed to the brim with tropes we love.We meet Go Da-rim, our happy-go-lucky but down-on-her-luck heroine, and Gong Ji-hyuk, a handsome, icy chaebol heir who doesn’t believe in love. After a very drunk Da-rim tries to save Ji-hyuk’s life on the cliffs of Jeju-do—while he’s convinced she’s completely unhinged—their fates collide again. Da-rim runs into her ex-boyfriend, now married to her high school friend, and surprise! He’s the very man Ji-hyuk is trying to recruit. What starts as a convenient alliance turns into a contract relationship, but things quickly spiral when their “fake” romance bleeds into reality, culminating in a first kiss that is truly dynamite. We wrap up the episode with our brand-new DK Trope Tracker. Let the chase begin! 💋🔥Announcements:We just launched our “Road to 10,000 Sarangees” campaign!
