Kirk Hamilton

Oh, man, I forgot to say.

So, yeah, I mean, the first season is very Korean.

This season is also very Korean.

One of the chief creatives.

Let me pull up his I'll pull up his name.

Yeah.

The creator and showrunner is Lee Sung-jin, who is Korean.

This one, I forgot to mention that one of the characters, not a star, but one of the characters in it is played by Song Kang-ho, who is the lead character in Parasite, the dad of the lower class family in Parasite.

incredible there a lot of a lot of korean art is about the class divide between the rich and the poor as we've seen for parasite and many other things and this is very much exploring that same sort of thing um one of the kind of the owner of the club is this billionaire korean woman um who has their own story and character traits and interesting quirks um and the uh the the gen z dude austin is his name is half korean and that plays a key role in the story as well oh man

Yeah, it's really cool.

And class and money plays a big role in it, just like in the first season.

It's kind of the undercurrent that fuels a lot of what is going on.

But the beef itself is very fun to watch, and it's very fun to watch.

What's interesting about this one, as opposed to the first season,

season is that um these characters already had a relationship before the kind of the beef started and so they already know each other and so they're not like trying to track each other down or like get to know each other or anything like that um and also that it's kind of like two couples working against each other as opposed to just a man and a woman working against each other it's it's just very entertaining it's it's very good it's very well done i can't wait yeah i'm psyched to talk to you about it when i when i've watched

Yeah, hopefully I'll get to finish it before I start traveling, but we'll see.

But yeah, let me know when you start watching and we'll chat.

All right, that is that for this week's episode.

And Maximum Fun Drive is about to end.
