    ;-;
    I thought you meant like commit s*icide But I read the ratings and found out it wasn't Phew ;-;
  • mac titel
    Awesome!
    I say commit to “Itaewon Class”. Thank you so much for this podcast! No one at my school likes Korean things, so I feel out of place. When I listen to you guys it makes me feel like I am just having a chat with my friends. I’m saying this from a heart of truth, one of the BEST PODCASTS EVER!!!!
  • dowinteris
    Time Saver!
    I really love this podcast, I often struggle with what Drama I should watch as their is always 1 big drama and then a few okay interim dramas to watch. I always struggle to decide what to watch, but Commit or Quit helps me not waste time and find Dramas I will love and enjoy. I hope you guys come back and continue it.
  • LulasTea
    Love them
    Hopefulyl they get to review my favorite drama “psychopath diary” I haven’t quit on it it was so addicting. Love this podcast with my life I swear fellow sister support 😌😌
  • Tblue77
    Love it
    It is nice to hear from someone who actually lived around Itaewon and is very knowledgeable about Korean society review this drama. I also chose to commit to Itaewon class. Perhaps you guys can review Crash Landing on You, Parasite, City Hunter, or My Love from Another Star next. Finished listening to all the episodes. It’s sad to see it go, but I totally understand. I am going to miss these insightful reviews. I really enjoyed listening to Eric’s, Eddie’s, Brian’s, and all the other guests’ opinions. You guys are hilarious!
  • AprilBeynon
    Great Show.
    Love listening to your thoughts on K Drama’s. None of my friends watch K Drama’s and I never get to share how much I enjoy them. Listening to you guys makes me feel like I’m enjoying a good chat with my friends. I would love to hear your review on Record of my youth.
  • mandaloberrr
    DIANE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
    SO HAPPY WE GET TO HEAR YOU MORE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! YOUR SUPER AWESOME!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
  • Musicmotivator
    Diane is my spirit animal
    The new episode has me snorting so bad. I love it
  • Haych C
    This show is comforting
    My first intro ep was Insecure with Phoebe Robinson and it was truly such a nice convo. I appreciate the contextual questions relating to the guests and the show they’re reviewing. Eddie and Eric gas up their guests and it’s just a good and respectful time. I’m about to check out CLOY bc of y’all.
  • ukuleile_^_^
    so good!
    i love this show and i can’t WAIT for more! the way that they go in deep and really take the emotional factor into their commit/quit test. i recommend reviewing Banana Fish, Kakegurui, and Kimi no Na wa.

    Commit! Conversion of First Time Podcast Listener
    I stumbled upon this podcast accidentally on Spotify, held no real expectations, and was not convinced I would benefit from listening. Gratefully I was wrong, and the time spent listening has converted me to become a fan not only of this show, but of podcasts as a whole. The show charms it’s audience- evoking a convivial, conversational atmosphere reminiscent of lounging with friends to share drinks and TV recommendations. It’s discussions around each show’s central themes are sprinkled with insightful quips and perceptive stories contributing to an overall pleasant listening experience. The show is a perfectly balanced nugget of lighthearted yet precise evaluation and I look forward to listening to more Commit or Quit episodes in the future!

    Anime on Commit or Quit?!
    FINALLY! I never thought I’d live to see anime represented in Commit or Quit but I am here for it. I’m caught up on the anime, the manga volumes that we have out since it’s still ongoing and yes be prepared cuz a lot of sh*t goes down and once you think you get what’s going on they throw a curveball on you. It’s definitely kept me on my toes and it’s up there on my favorite anime list. Listening to this now made me realize Attack on Titan hits differently in 2020 for sure and now I want to rewatch it from the beginning, so I will be on this journey with you Eric and Eddie. Thank you Manny for suggesting this otherwise this gem would’ve gone on unnoticed. I enjoyed this week’s episode!
  • mochiWhiskers
    great podcast about tv!
    it’s really fun hearing about new tv shows and the nam brothers opinions!! it also includes random interesting conversations!!
  • Cmhoem2190
    Oldie But A Goodie Recommendation
    Love this show and all of your banter. I know Eddie loves RomComs but there is a show on NETFLIX that is an older KDrama that has a little bit of a more sci-fi twist to it as well. I am recommending Tomorrow, With You! I am currently rewatching it for the third time; so good and has some of my favorite actors! Would love to hear your take on it.
  • 😊🤗😊🤗😊🤗
    My favorite podcast
    Love this podcast! Love the reviews, the sibling dynamic, and the side banters and personal stories :) Hope to see all 3 brothers on more podcasts!
  • Idontknowmyname😎
    Great show
    I absolutely enjoy the casual talk and review of the shows that I enjoyed. You guys are doing amazing 👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼
  • nessamartinezz
    Show recommendation
    can you guys please review Cheese in the Trap. it’s such a great show!
  • Punmaychee
    Loving the brother chemistry <3 and I have an animation request
    I enjoy the causal reviews of you guys. Can you review an animated webtoon series? Like Tower of God or The God of High School which is my current favorite so far.
  • weirdNCTzen
    maybe this show??
    could you maybeee review the show... My Holo Love??? i actually really loved it a lot.
  • XuMxhao
    Drama request and love alarm note
    So I have a kdrama you could do which is called “it’s okay to not be okay” on Netflix (it’s not finished yet, but still). For my love alarm not I’m just saying, that the drama takes a turn and I actually finished the drama in one day and I loved it, but you two should definitely give it another chance, because oooo Eric, Eddie it will not be what you expect it to be, but overall this is just my opinion that you two should give love alarm another chance and also PLEASE (;´༎ຶٹ༎ຶ`) at least try It’s Okay To Not Be Okay. (;´༎ຶٹ༎ຶ`) bye
  • bts_alex
    Please read all of it
    Hello! I only gave 1 star because you didn’t understand the show and immediately judged it didn’t look anything up at all I watched the whole season and they did not understand the k-drama at all the show is love alarm. The show is “ok” They need to redo the episode after watching a few more episodes
  • Po12245
    We deep in this now
    Eddie tearing up had me in my feels big time. So - pleaseeee review Vagabond! It looks like solid action instead of a love hexagon! Also — can u provide more cultural context like u did about korea having a big fraternal skinship type platonic friendships? I find that so fascinating. Because is it also considered weird to just hug ur friends hello?
  • RamenPucci
    Insightful, hilarious, and honest. One of the best podcasts.
    During quarantine, I picked up this podcast. What begins as just a podcast that reviews movies and tv shows unravels and becomes an insightf discussion on life and culture. The Nam Brothers feature different prominent guest stars each week. I could identify with their in-depth discussions growing up as an Asian American. I haven’t really watched kdramas prior to Commit or Quit, due to the amount of content to sift through. Their kdrama recommendations are on point! Highly reccomend it!
  • JZha123
    Funny and informative
    The Nam brothers are hilarious! I love hearing about their lives growing up, television/films worth watching, and Korean culture. Highly recommend
  • Bookworm00
    Worth the time
    Sometimes the one to two minute trailer for a show is lacking, but with Commit or Quit you are given laughs and honest reviews. I also enjoy listening after I watch the show/movie they review.
  • Sar_sizzle
    Good commentary
    After a couple minutes in I could not continue I did not like it. I just could not get into it.
  • lilly flamm
    ✨❤️Scrumptious nam brothers❤️✨
    I love the side banter and this podcast is the best to listen to when playing video games, car trips, sleeping, or just when your bored, etc.
  • death fantom
    Me writing a review while my sister babbles
    Okay I see where you are coming from but I just have to say watch at least one more episode of It’s okay not to be okay please like it gets soooo amazing by episode 3
  • Thegatzbee
    All about the banter
    I just love the way Eric, Eddie, Brian and their sometimes guests interact. The banter is fantastic. Great listening for that alone, but the reviews can be insightful as well.
  • heyit'ssimo
    Really nice
    Interesting stuff, I’ve never heard americans reviewing korean dramas, so this is new and I like it. Also, the insight into korean culture is really cool. Would be awesome if you guys reviewed Miss Hammurabi, I think it’s an underrated show. P.S. You know what show needs attention? Jack Ryan, that’s one good show.
  • OnewTofu
    Solid, quality content 😏
    I was waiting to hear the Nam Bros talk about Extracurricular and they do not disappoint! Extracurricular is definitely on the darker side of k-dramas but I feel like it’s definitely a needed subject to be discussed. Not everything in life is bright and bubbly and it’s tough when growing up alone. So, yes! This is a commit for me! Also, Eric with his “watch it and come back but make sure you come back.” 🤣🤣
  • It's Harry Potter Itches! ;D
    why is this so good
    worth listening too!! feels like im having a convo with them about the shows they are discussing which is really nice and refreshing!! love it so much!!
  • Ukiss fan
    Solid Podcast
    Eric Nam always brings a solid guest speaker. I love listening to their podcast. Heard all the episodes. The banter between him and his brothers are great
  • rzeszow91
    Very entertaining and informative!!
    Every time when I listen to this podcast I feel happy, nostalgic, and entertained. I like how the hosts not only review the tv drama, but at the same time they talk about the interesting aspects that appeared in featured series, like for example Korean culture, social status in Korea, differences in Korean and American lifestyle, and so on. It reminds me of the conversations with my own siblings. The podcast is fresh, entertaining, and easy to listen to. I hope they will continue it!

  • V-Hizz
    Eternal Monarch
    Definitely understand why you guys dropped it, although I loved it. If you guys ever decide to come back to it on your own time, I’ll just say that patience is a must, at least up until like episode 5 or 6. Great review 👍
  • Bartman6195
    Commit to this Podcast
    The banter between the three brothers is fantastic as is their analysis of the various shows they watch (I’m glad I wasn’t the only confused by Hospital Playlist). Thank you for making quarantine a little better for everyone! ~ I recommend Never Have I Ever for your next episode!

    Nam Brothers
    Love the podcast!! Love the Nam brothers chemistry! I always love hearing about Eric’s perspective on things. I’m confident that Eric and the Dive team will continue to show case an incredible content. Just love all around!!
  • lowkeyGEEK
    Nam Nam Nam, Delicious!
    Just like these guys, i’m writing this review after 2 episodes. Great work! I absolutely hate hate hate spoilers but I love these guys. Even though the first 2 episodes of the series are “spoiled”, i’m looking at it as more of a detailed synopsis. Just a thought on future episodes, maybe disclose which streaming service (netflix, amazon, hulu, etc..) the show you are reviewing is on. It’s gonna be commit for me. Keep it up boys!!
  • Susie002023
    Best podcast

  • Asheldo
    Crash Landing on you
    So I listened to you and committed to the show, crash landing on you. Thank goodness I did. The four soldiers who are under the leads command are hilarious and they are a huge part to the shows success. Thanks for the advise!!!
  • krisanon
    One of my all time favorites
    They never fail to make me laugh!
