S1 E15 / Brett Battles is back to talk with me about Like Flowers in Sand, a brilliantly layered Kdrama that’s so much more than a sports story.

In this spotlight episode, we gush about:

Strong female characters in the village
The golden retriever that is Baek Doo and the delightful pairing of him with focused Doo Sik and their slow-burn romance
Flashbacks done right
The joy of a well-integrated mystery plot (versus tacked-on serial killer plot)
Found family, hidden identity, childhood friendship, and underdog tropes
