✨KIND won the Best Fiction Podcast award at Sydney Web Fest 2025! ✨
Considering the incredible caliber of shows at the festival this year, this was really unexpected news, and we are extremely thrilled and grateful for the honour! We'd like to thank the Sydney Web Fest team from the bottom of our hearts - even being selected to be a part of this festival was an incredible opportunity for us. And a huge congratulations to all the winners, every award and nomination was truly well deserved! <3
I also want to show my deep appreciation for the cast & crew of KIND who brought nothing but the utmost professionalism, skill, and heart to the production. Not to mention an abundance of patience as I fumbled my way through unfamiliar territory, for which I will never stop being grateful for.
This production was done on a completely voluntary basis and KIND would not exist without the cast & crew's incredible generosity and passion for both the show and their craft. They are all so so deserving of this award and all the recognition they can get for everything they poured into this show 💕

KIND: An LGBTQ+ Mythical Noir Audio Drama is Strangekind Studio’s debut audio drama, featuring a diverse cast, immersive sound design, and with queer BIPOC characters front and center. It is heavily inspired by East Asian dramas, classic noir films, and Korean & Japanese folk mythologies. The show has 13 episodes with a total runtime of 15.5 hours.
Unassuming Sujin Baek (Jiho | KoreHan) works at Eden Orphanage, cooking and cleaning for twelve boisterous children. He is happily married to the love of his life - Giv Hasan (GM Hakim), an ever-patient and caring nurse. Their days are idyllic, filled with scraped knees, overdue homework, and driving the kids to soccer practice - the vibrant chaos of domestic life.
But during the dead hours of the night, Sujin takes to the streets as the Kind Killer, Silver City's most prolific and terrifying serial killer.
The bullish Detective Dana Liu (Skye Redden) and her enigmatic partner, Detective Ilana Stone (Bree Frankel), are determined to stop Kind before he strikes again. They are given their best lead yet when the witness to his latest murder makes herself known.
Meanwhile, the detectives must also navigate the tumultuous waters of a burgeoning relationship - which is, in Dana's opinion, a trial far more difficult than catching a serial killer.
When the true identity of the Kind Killer is forced to the surface, the city's dark underbelly threatens the very heart and humanity of all Silverians.
