Season 3 Coming Soon!
Welcome to the American K-sisters podcast!
We, Heena and Linda moved from Korea and have been living in the U.S. over the past 10 and 20 years, respectively. We are fans of K-pop, especially BTS, and love talking about Korean food and culture. We also share our experiences with immigration, careers, graduate school, dating, marriage, and interracial relationships.
We have released 20 episodes in Korean since 2021, and starting with episode 18, we recorded English episodes. This way, we hope to reach more audiences who can relate to our joys and struggles. We welcome all listeners who are curious about Korea, Korean American friends, and folks with multicultural background!

탈출구가 없어 보이는 지긋지긋한 코로나시대. 여러분은 어떻게 이 난관을 극복하고 계신가요? 저희 미국사는 언니들과 같이 미국에 거주하고 계신 분들은, 정부와 미디어의 각기 다른 메세지에 더해, 마스크 착용과 백신에 반대하는 미국인들로 인해 더욱 혼란스러웠을 겁니다. 이번 에피소드에서는 코로나시대를 저희는 어떻게 버텨왔는지, 지난 약 2년 간의 팬데믹 동안 저희의 직장생활과 인간관계, 건강 방면에서 어떤 변화가 있었는지 얘기해보려고 합니다.Are you burned out from the pandemic? We hear you! K-sisters have been dreaming of a post-pandemic world forever. Back in early 2020, we started hearing news about novel coronavirus from Chinese and Korean media. It eventually arrived in the United States and rapidly swept over the country, heightening anti-Asian narratives and violence. In this episode, Heena and Linda talk about how the CVOID-19 pandemic has affected their lives in terms of their work, relationships, and health. They also share what they have learned from their experiences and how they continue to manage safety concerns and limitations on socialization. #ARMYvaccinatedtoo 에피소드와 관련된 린다의 뉴스레터들 @DefinitelyNotOkay.com Linda's Phone Game AddictionAsian Hate CrimeHeena's Daily WalkAmerican K-sisters Information웹사이트: AmericanKsisters.com인스타그램: @AmericanKsisters YouTube: 미국사는언니들AmericanKsisters이메일: AmericanKsisters@gmail.com 음악: Miss Christine
