Yi Sang, born Kim Haegyŏng, 1910-1937, was a prolific and influential Korean writer and poet during the Japanese imperial occupation of Korea. An outstanding member of the literary group Guinhoe, or the League of Nine, Yi Sang was known for his biting wit and his distinctly detatched and self-critical autobiographical style, and is an influential figure in Korean literature today.

Soul Mates! is proud to present this reading of one of his most accomplished works, The Wings, published shortly before his tragic death at 26. Featuring an original soundtrack by Pandora Grace, we ask you to join us for this timeless piece of writing, about a man so self obsessed that he loses all perspective on the world around him, only to be overwhelmed once beginning to gain it back. We hope you enjoy, and we hope you are inspired to seek out more works by this great artist.

In this episode, our first ever first part of a two-parter, we zoom in on the first part of Yui Yagi, estrogen-infused perpetual shy girl with a poor sense of taste but a great taste in overcoats, and ask a question that considering our proclivities we really should know the answer to: What does spironolactone do?

In this episode, in which we cover SEVEN outfits, we zoom in on the perpetually terrified specifically of the viewer shrine maiden Mai Aiahara, who prompts a very spooky question, when it isn't even Halloween yet: Are we sure that this girl is like, alive? Flesh and blood, and not a mere wandering spirit?

In this episode, fueled by an anime watching experience that was certainly, uhm, well, anyway, we zoom in on Washizu Iwao from mahjong anime Akagi, who plays mahjong with your blood, but not necessarily with your heart because he's kinda, well, anyway, we ask a very geometric question: What are the shapes on this man's face actually supposed to be? Why does he look so different sometimes and exactly the same others?

In this episode, our third Limbus Company episode, and also our longest episode ever and certainly our most infected, we look at perpetual failboy trapped in his egg Emil Sinclair, and ask a truly insane question that I promise by the end of the episode you will maybe understand: How much milk could you drink out of a woman's gambeson?
