**********TRIGGER WARNING******** *TRIGGER WARNING* ******* *Please note some of the stories that were shared on this episode were requested to be removed, due to the nature of the topic. Therefore, some of the edits may seem out of place. Please understand we are here to share stories that women are ready to share. However, once they have revealed they are not yet ready with their story going public, we will adhere to their request.* *Whew.* This episode was HEAVY #SBFam. We sat in studio today with our friend Muna. A current student in her Master's program at one of South Korea's most prestigious universities. As Muna is entering her final semester of her graduate studies, she is currently in the process of completing her Thesis; which deals with Sexual Abuse of International/Exchange Women in University. She shared the reasoning behind why she selected this topic. As well as why it is so important for her to conduct her studies and research regarding this type of sexual abuse. We also shared our own personal stories of sexual abuse/misconduct and why Muna's study means so much to us. As always we ended our episode with a game of 'What Would You Do?' This episode may be tough for some, but we felt this was important to share this with our viewers and to be as open and honest as possible, while still respecting the stories of others. If you are a current or previous International/Exchange student that attended Uni in South Korea and you have a personal story of sexual abuse, please contact Muna @whatthemuna. Your voices need to be heard. @thesojublack @misskeeds @imyourdaddy.zefling

We were definitely on the sauce with this one. This episode was hella saucy (no pun intended). Your fave duo spilt some soju with En the sauce - a group of young, black creators in Korea. We had the pleasure of being joined in studio by two of the members, Asha and Jameelah, and man did we have some good laughs! These ladies are hilarious, and their YouTube channel is bound to crack you up! This was a really energetic episode with lots of shade and straight up honesty all around. It was a pleasure to finally sit down with these beautiful ladies. It felt like a catchup sesh with a couple of old friends, and it was a lot of fun. Also, let's settle this once and for all... which one is better: NYC or Florida, and why?

On this here episode, Soju Black fam, we had the pleasure of catching up with an old friend (an actual day 1), Arthur Hauser - whom, by the way, sculpted a mini soju bottle for us as a gift AND brought bottles of soju to the party too (our kind of house guest). We met Arthur during our first week in Korea and we are proud to witness his growth and the mark he's making as a creative in these streets. So on this episode, we talk about Hauser's life as a professional photographer in Korea. Mans is hungry for that creative energy and he is out there chasing it, all while working a full-time job as a young branch manager at his company. We touch on the things he looks for when creating his art, what makes him tick and what inspires him, the shitty models he's had to work with and the inspired. It's been a whirlwind of a journey, and we take you on Arthur's journey on this episode. So, tune in as we dig deep into Hauser's brain for some inspo and the nuggets of motivational quotes he graciously drops ever-so-often.

This episode is loud, opinionated, and raucous. LISTEN AT YOUR OWN RISK!! Ladies and gentlemen - we present to you, the other half of... We Fancy!! We were joined in studio by the one and only infamous and controversial, H-A-E-P-P-Y. Mr Haeppy is the other half of the YouTube famous 'We Fancy' duo and we were excited to finally have him on the show to be our 2020 opening act. We talked about A LOT of things on this pod, and some of them left us speechless. Join in on the conversation and let us know your thoughts on some of Haeppy's opinions and views. And since he dubs himself as a natural-born f**k boi, we had to test this claim. You know we love games on this show. So, using our 100% accurate and scientifically proven SBP F**kboi or Flunkboi test, we came to the conclusion that Haeppy is in fact a................

**DISCLAIMER - this is a fully sexual episode, so if you're (sadly) iffy about dirty sex talk, then you have been warned. "BIG BOOTY BECKA BIG BIG BOOTY BECKA" in the building!! On this episode, we were joined with the bad ass self-proclaimed International THOT, Big Booty Becka herself! This is one of our most fun recordings to date y'all. Big Booty Becka sat down with your girls and we had a raw, and dirty conversation about her shenanigans around the world as a thotty. And all the whorrible decisions we've made out in these streets. Becka tells all about her adventures to find premium dick, how she learned to give mean head, trashy men that have no respect for the consent code, and all the fun sex in between. Being an International THOT ain't easy, but it sure can be a lot of fun because sexual liberation is so freeing and exhilarating! Tune in to this episode to find out all the dirty details we get into with Big Booty Becka.

Are we all actually just on our worst behaviour out in these streets? LOL!! So on this episode, we had a chat with one of our friends @erinleighbrill - who is a graduate study-abroad student. You need to follow her on IG, because her stories will make you laugh ALL DAY!! Erin made us realise that regardless of your job or status as a foreigner in Korea, we all pretty much go through similar experiences. We talked about her adjustment to Korean student life compared to the US, the raw and honest truth about her experience and how foreign students are treated here, compared to Korean students. Right down to the fun bits about all the f**kbois she's encountered in the clubs (again, her IG stories will have you rolling on the floor). As well as how she got through life in Korea by using her 'foreigner privilege' card to get by (just like A LOT of us), instead of learning the language - which, let's be honest, is actually quite taxing. It's a fun episode filled with little nuggets of interesting experiences, lots of laughter, lots of shots, and of course, V's f**kery as always! And on this episode, we also give our most appreciated shoutout to Ariana AKA @spriteandsoju (Instagram) for being such a great supporter. We appreciate you, girl!
