[Spoiler Alert] Grace discusses the show See You in My 19th Life (tvN, 2023) based on a webtoon by Lee Hye, written by Choi Young-rim and directed by Lee Na-jeong. The show explores the theme of past lives which Grace sees as a metaphor for negative flashbacks. How to let go of past memories that feel so real? Grace also discusses her experience of seeing Barbie (2023) in theaters, and her fantasy of working on a show for Cartoon Network. Grace talks about the history of South Korean animators (e.g., Nelson Shin) who hand drew the majority of hit animated shows in the US like The Simpsons, Family Guy, Bob’s Burgers, Spongebob Squarepants, Adventure Time and King of the Hill.
