Sorry this week’s episode is late. I had recorded it, but when I opened the file to edit, my voice suddenly sounded oddly metallic, so I had to scrap it and record again.
This episode grows out of this week’s newsletter, (yoonjiwon.substack.com/p/why-koreans-drink-ice…) but it wanders a little farther: into the backstory, the books, and the very Korean logic behind iced Americano in winter. In other words, this is not just a story about coffee.
It’s a story about work, habit, space, youth, and the small stubborn self that still says, “I’ll have it iced.”
