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

➡ Use the chapter markers to find the non-spoiler and spoiler sections.
