Song Rae and Something Else chop it up as we spoil the heck out of LOVE (ft. Marriage and Divorce) and The Devil Judge. Things that you will learn: (1) Thirsty step-moms never win, (2) Kdramas with multiple seasons are stale like old saltine crackers at the bottom of your grandma's pocketbook, (3) we desperately want the Devil Judge to be a bi, poly Batman (he's already got his Robin and Catwoman after all).
