Axie Oh is a NYT and Indie bestselling author. Her book — The Girl Who Fell Beneath the Sea is literary magic. As a Korean American, Axie's stories center Korean culture and characters and are inspired by Korean folklore, but her storytelling reaches beyond any cultural limitations, as evidenced by the fact that her books are translated into over 30 languages. We talk about the deep comfort of the sounds and smells of our shared motherland, a truth that seems to reverberate within our very cells. We swap some outrageous stories including being misidentified, renamed, and asked if we are from North or South Korea. Axie shares her journey to becoming a published author, from the inspired guidance of teachers through racist feedback and rejections, to ultimately maintaining patience and perserverence and not letting the no's stop you. I love Axie's joy for Asian pop culture — K-pop, K-drama, and Pokemon — and we talk about how when touchpoints from various cultures are mixed into and immersed into everyone's day to day life, the result is true inclusion, and more space to understand experiences that are different to yours. Please enjoy the magical — Axie Oh.

Summary: Add some Seoul to your day and join Holly and Devin in South Korea for today's Summer Jetset Series episode! While neither of them have made it to Korea yet, they have both fallen in love with the country, the culture, the vibrancy and K-Pop. They appreciate the country for its massive pop-cultural influence in both music with KPop, KDramas and K-beauty trends and fashion - it's exciting to see South Korea stepping more and more onto the global stage. Until you can book your tickets, come armchair travel with us!  Topics Discussed: The Heart (2:51): Devin discussed XOXO by Axie Oh, a delightful YA novel that follows cellist Jenny as she travels from her home in LA to Seoul and the Seoul Arts Academy for a semester to help her mother care for her ailing grandmother. Once there, Jenny realizes that the mysterious hunk she connected with one random night in LA is actually Jaewoo, star of an up-and-coming K-Pop group. Devin's key takeaways were: Whether you're a huge K-Pop fan or new to the scene, this book provides a fantastic overview of the K-Pop experience, both for the fandom and for the group members themselves. Oh executes with wonderful accuracy on the excitement and struggles of Jaewoo and his groupmates.  Unlike most Hallmark movies, XOXO doesn't involve Jenny giving up her own dreams and goals for the sake of Jaewoo; she continues to explore what her cello career and future studies mean to her and her growth is not exclusively driven by her romance; a refreshing and important perspective for all readers. The side characters of this novel are phenomenal, well-rounded, and provide a pop of color and texture to the main plotline of a forbidden love between Jenny and Jaewoo.  The Dagger (16:47): Holly discussed The Plotters by Un-Su Kim, a contemporary novel that delves into the secretive world of assassins. The reader follows Reseng, a contract killer who was raised by the head of an underground organization, Old Racoon. The tensions between old guard leaders like Old Racoon and new blood portrayed by Hanja add layers of intrigue on top of an already compelling assassin story. Holly's key takeaways were: Don't judge a book by it's assassin plot! This novel is introspective and explores the theme of personal identity and the search for meaning in life. Reseng grapples with questions about his own identity as he begins to recognize that his life has been controlled by external forces who have been pulling the strings behind the scenes.  The Plotters raises ethical questions about the nature of killing and the moral implications of assassination while weaving in some seriously intense action scenes. As is the case with 21st-century Korean crime films, this novel relies heavily on sharp and pointy objects that get deadly - principally, knives and hatchets.  As we follow Renseng on his journey, Kim explores the complexities of loyalty and betrayal within his sphere of assassins and underground groups. It raises questions about trust, the nature of relationships, and the lengths to which individuals will go to protect their own interests.  Hot On the Shelf (33:13): Devin: The Fiancé Farce by Alexandria Bellefleur Holly: The Whispers by Ashley Audrain What's Making Our Hearts Race (36:42): Devin: The Nowhere Bookshop in San Antonio, TX (owned by Jenny Lawson!) Holly: Past Lives, a film in theaters!    Instagram: @heartsanddaggerspod Website: www.heartsanddaggerspod.com   If you like what you hear, please tell your friends and rate and review us on Apple Podcasts and Spotify so that we can find our perfect audience.  

“I can even still have my festively neurotic characters, but they can be working their way toward a happy ending, instead of working their way towards crushing disappointment.”  Curtis Sittenfeld's Romantic Comedy is a playful, smart and fizzy look at love and pop culture through the eyes of a charming and relatable late-night TV writer. Sittenfeld joins us to talk about how a good novel feels like eavesdropping, what makes a character likable, surprising literary influences and more with Poured Over host Miwa Messer. And we end this episode with TBR Topoff book recommendations from Marc and Madyson.  This episode of Poured Over was hosted by Executive Producer Miwa Messer and mixed by Harry Liang.   New episodes land Tuesdays and Thursdays (with occasional Saturdays) here and on your favorite podcast app.    Featured Books (Episode):  Romantic Comedy by Curtis Sittenfeld  Prep by Curtis Sittenfeld  Eligible by Curtis Sittenfeld  The Great Reclamation by Rachel Heng    Featured Books (TBR Topoff):  The Lonely Hearts Book Club by Lucy Gilmore  XOXO by Axie Oh 

Sometimes truth is stranger than fiction, at least that's what Tonya, Alison, Megan and Lia have learned in the world of ARMY fandom. Back before BTS got their hooks in us, we were avid K-drama watchers and one drama that delighted us was Her Private Life which depicts the secret life of a professional art curator who happens to be a little (lot) obsessed with a Kpop idol. We thought it was cute but also maybe over the top at first watch. Nowadays...we aren't so sure. Suddenly having a giant cut out of Jungkook in our living room seems pretty reasonable. So we decide to return to the drama with new eyes and see how we related to the exploration of adult women in fandom.If you have any questions email us at afternoonaarmy@gmail.com.Want to try an audiobook for the bookclub?

Avika and Simran discuss one of their 2021 favourites, XOXO by Axie Oh.

This week's selections: Ariadne by Jennifer Saint, The Girl Who Fell Beneath The Sea by Axie Oh, Twisted Tales-A Series, Galatea , Circe, and the Song of Achilles-all by Madeline Miller.

Deadly storms. An ancient curse. Will her sacrifice save them all? For generations, deadly storms have ravaged Mina's homeland. Her people believe the Sea God, once their protector, now curse them with death and despair. To appease him, each year a maiden is thrown into the sea, in the hopes that one day the 'true bride' will be chosen and end the suffering. Many believe Shim Cheong - Mina's brother's beloved - to be the legendary true bride. But on the night Cheong is sacrificed, Mina's brother follows her, even knowing that to interfere is a death sentence. To save her brother, Mina throws herself into the water in Cheong's stead. Swept away to the Spirit Realm, a magical city of lesser gods and mythical beasts, Mina finds the Sea God, trapped in an enchanted sleep. With the help of a mysterious young man and a motley crew of demons, gods and spirits, Mina sets out to wake him and bring an end to the storms once and for all. But she doesn't have much time: a human cannot live long in the land of the spirits. And there are those who would do anything to keep the Sea God from waking.... The Girl Who Fell Beneath the Sea is a magical feminist retelling of a classic Korean legend, perfect for fans of Uprooted and Miyazaki's SpiritedAway.

Rosa Escoda's dreamy narration sweeps listeners up into a captivating retelling of the Korean folktale “The Tale of Shim Cheong.” Host Jo Reed and AudioFile's Emily Connelly discuss Axie Oh's new YA fantasy set in the spirit realm. Deadly storms rage along the coast each year, only calming after a sacrifice to the Sea God. When Mina realizes her brother is desperately in love with this year's “Sea God's Bride,” Mina plunges into the sea to save her brother's heart, setting her on a quest to end the storms. Escoda narrates with a British accent, smoothly shifting into Korean. Listeners will love getting lost in this lush, romantic story. Read the full review of the audiobook on AudioFile's website.
