Hello Ari , still getting used to this mediium of communication at my age.
Have read quite a few of your articles by now which are always thought provoking, and also listened to some of your previous podcasts ,and also listened to this evenings release.
So I have listened to quite a few samples of your spoken English and read your written, and feel qualified to give you an assessment as an aging Australian Engilish speaker and reader with an academic background.
You will definitely have to stop apologising in your emails and podcasts about Bad English..
Your speaking is very lucid and clear, and your prosody is good, which makes it very easy to follow, even with a few very minor mistakes.
So Be very Cool re Your English; it is 100% and more better than my non existent Korean, and my slowly improving French.Sure others of your readers or listeners will say the same.
English is a troublesome language, but can put you onto some interesting sites, if you wish.
Intrigued by your report on the movie Exhuma (the full English word Is Exhumation, and could talk a bit more), as it was on a list of questions I had about Shammanism and The Dead, and is it really a big thing in modern Korea and not on just KDramas (which due to period of illnees , I have got to watch a lot off, but obviously subbed versions)??
And the recipes are great, and will have to talk more about them.
And see I have managed to misspell English in line 5 of my previous.
And spell correct not saved me but troubled me excessively a lot with a recent send about Timor L'Este current Prime Minister Xanana Gusmao. A person I admire. And cool attendee at a Melbourne event called Global Citizen just the other day, with a nice music end with band Crowded House and others.
And a testament to my grade 2 teacher . Ms Dunne, who said you must always re read what you have written to check.
Met her for many years after as she lived down the road a bit and I collected the newspaper money for the local agency.
So, a nice cup of tea often in the morning. A rather long and tiresome job on a Saturday, but I was paid 2.5% of what I collected. So not too bad as in the day not taxed.

And like your Korean Language education.

I was on the fence about watching 파묘 but you've convinced me to watch it this weekend!
I'm not a movie person, but you're really making me want to watch it! Thank you for the recommendation 😊
So excited you’re bringing back your podcast!!!

Sorry. I am a bit talkative too, maybe.
