K-Drama School – Ep 61: Producers and Crystal Dildos with Kate Cheka

[Spoiler Alert] In this episode of K-Drama School, Grace discusses the show Producers (2015, KBS), and the K-drama-hits-churning writer Park Ji-eun (My Love From the Star, Legend of the Blue Sea, and Crash Landing on You) whose writing career includes sit-coms, variety shows and talk radio before dramas. Grace gets into how Producers is self-reflexive in its critique of the music industry’s treatment of K-pop stars and its intense work hours behind the scenes of a variety show. Grace’s guest is London-based comedian Kate Cheka (@katecheka on Instagram). They discuss growing as comedians, the Woke Panties Show in Berlin, managers, vision boards, burning out, education, writing a book, and crystal dildos.
