The main focus is the director’s philosophy in the film and other critics’ opinions. In contrast with ‘vulgar talk’ as they describe in their conversation, what listeners will hear on this podcast is very sophisticated.

Funny jokes and serious opinion exchanges coexist in the podcast. There is some explicit language and advanced vocabulary used which may be harder for learners of Korean.
