#661 The Love Game

So what do gaming and immigration have in common? 

The Love Game by Wing Kuang

In our second story from the Jesse Cox Audio Fellowship 2025, Wing Kuang guides us through a love story of two gamers —one in Melbourne and one in Shanghai —navigating the complexities of long-distance relationships and the bureaucracy of Australia’s immigration system. 

Produced by Wing Kuang 

Supervising Producer: M. Cristina Marras
