New Video Preview for Episode 7 of In A Good Way

A Koala's Playground Posted on December 24, 2013 by ockoalaDecember 24, 2013

SETTV is a bunch of evil mean trolls because the video preview at the end of In A Good Way episode 6 for episode 7 was such weaksauce compared to the one that just came out today. Holy moly I can’t wait for what’s coming! A game of truth or dare? Jia En and Liu Chuan having skinship during a … Continue reading →

Prime Minister and I Episode 5 Baby Recap

A Koala's Playground Posted on December 23, 2013 by ockoalaJanuary 6, 2014

Just an FYI that I’ll probably only have time for baby recaps in the next two weeks since I’m vacation so don’t think I’ve dropped any dramas or have suddenly gone from love-to-hate. Prime Minister and I ended episode 4 on a high note so the wait has felt interminable for episode 5 to drop and now that it’s here … Continue reading →

Seung Nyang Has a Hottie On Each Hand in Empress Ki

A Koala's Playground Posted on December 23, 2013 by ockoalaDecember 23, 2013

The love triangle in Empress Ki is one open to lots of debate since there are plenty of fans of either Goryeo King Wang Yoo or Yuan Emperor Ta Hwan. But lately I’ve been thinking the object of the fight Seung Nyang is probably rolling her eyes at them if she wasn’t in such a position of danger and subservience … Continue reading →

So Ji Sub and After School’s Jooyeon Reportedly Dating Though Denials Abound

A Koala's Playground Posted on December 23, 2013 by ockoalaDecember 23, 2013

I still remember New Year’s Day of 2013 which started off with a bomb blast of news in the Korean entertainment industry with the jawdropping and out-of-left-field coupling of A-list beauty and middling actress Kim Tae Hee with Hallyu superstar Rain. That led to a year’s worth of dating news and with the year about to wrap up in a … Continue reading →

Festive Christmas Celebration Arrives in Prime Minister and I Episode 5

A Koala's Playground Posted on December 22, 2013 by ockoalaDecember 22, 2013

One of the reasons I know Prime Minister and I has hooked me good and garnered my full attention is that I’m interested in all aspects of the OTP relationship development. Of course the skinship (and there must be copious amounts of it) is a top priority, but I’m also just as invested in them becoming a functional married couple … Continue reading →

SETTV Holds Year End Drama Awards and the In A Good Way Cuties Attend as Presenters

A Koala's Playground Posted on December 22, 2013 by ockoalaDecember 22, 2013

I wish I could unsee this but it’s seared into my brain now that Lego Lee can clearly self-uglify to the point where I wanted to stage an intervention. This weekend SETTV held its own drama awards to fete its big ratings dramas and popular actors and actresses from 2013. Because In A Good Way just started airing the drama … Continue reading →

Rainie Yang’s Famous Co-stars Joseph Chang and Mike He Appear at Marc Jacobs Events in Taipei

A Koala's Playground Posted on December 22, 2013 by ockoalaDecember 20, 2013

I haven’t seen either of these hot namjas in awhile, and it’s rather serendipitous that they both have a Rainie Yang shared connection and happened to show up the same brand event at different spots on the same week. I guess I’m trying to say – it’s totally not random at all to do a joint post on Joseph Chang … Continue reading →

Recap and Video of the Hilarious Episode 6 BTS for In A Good Way

A Koala's Playground Posted on December 21, 2013 by ockoalaDecember 22, 2013

Lego Lee has kinda got himself into a pickle while us fans of In A Good Way can start rubbing our hands together in glee. At last week’s SETTV celebration event, Lego vowed that when the drama ratings broke 3 he and other male lead Jay Shih would ride their old-school motorcycles used in the drama from the network headquarters … Continue reading →

Pretty and Inappropriate Hugs Coming Up for In Ho and Da Jung in Prime Minister and I

A Koala's Playground Posted on December 21, 2013 by ockoalaDecember 21, 2013

I’m mentally ready for In Ho to step up in Prime Minister and I because the narrative needs it otherwise he’s as useful as window dressing, but I’m not emotionally ready for Yoon Si Yoon to either turn bad or become a totally morose and hopeless third wheel in the OTP relationship. This drama is moving so fast whatever is … Continue reading →

Liu Shi Shi Co-stars with Joseph Chang and Miura Haruma for Romance Thriller C-movie

A Koala's Playground Posted on December 21, 2013 by ockoalaDecember 21, 2013

Rising C-actress Liu Shi Shi continues to go down the list of gorgeous and talented TW-actor co-stars like you wouldn’t believe. I love some more than others but she hasn’t hit upon a total fail yet. She continues that trend and now pulls in a J-actor to boot – up next for Shi Shi is co-starring with Joseph Chang (Drunken … Continue reading →

In A Good Way Episode 6 Baby Recap

A Koala's Playground Posted on December 20, 2013 by ockoalaJanuary 10, 2014

There is such a lovely romantic simplicity to In A Good Way. All this talk of Christmas parties and dancing and makeovers are really quaint but I enjoy watching it so much because it all occurs in the still formative years of a bunch of college students. Some are more worldly than others, but still its very entertaining to see … Continue reading →

The Pretty Faces of SETTV Dramas Playfully Welcome the Holidays for December Spop Magazine

A Koala's Playground Posted on December 20, 2013 by ockoalaDecember 20, 2013

There won’t be any new SETTV drama premiering in Taiwan from here until year end so the network has rolled out its annual Year End Drama Awards which is an audience vote prize that is clearly based on popularity. Other than unexpectedly falling madly in love with the just started In A Good Way, the only other SETTV drama I … Continue reading →

Written Preview for Episode 6 of In A Good Way

A Koala's Playground Posted on December 20, 2013 by ockoalaDecember 20, 2013

We’re a few hours away from a new episode of In A Good Way and the written preview only recently dropped. SETTV is being so coy with information about what everyone wants to know – will Jia En discover that Liu Chuan is her online confidante 3631, and more importantly, will Liu Chuan out himself and dance with Jia En … Continue reading →
