Written and Video Preview for Prime Minister and I Episode 10

A Koala's Playground Posted on January 8, 2014 by ockoalaJanuary 8, 2014

This is too good not to just come flat out and share – the word “kiss” appears in the written preview for episode 10 of Prime Minister and I. I was flailing like a fish out of water by that alone but the context makes it even better. This is going to be a looooong week waiting for the next episode … Continue reading →

Seung Nyang is all Badass Again in Empress Ki with an Upcoming Proposal and Kiss from Wang Yoo

A Koala's Playground Posted on January 7, 2014 by ockoalaJanuary 6, 2014

Episode 19 of Empress Ki was interesting. I’m not sure what to think other than one ship appears to have sunk rather precipitously, though I never could understand how it was even sailing in the first place. The return of Seung Nyang to her Goryeo countrymen also brought back the freedom for her to speak her mind and boy did … Continue reading →

More Angst Coming for Ta Hwan and Seung Nyang in Empress Ki Episode 19

A Koala's Playground Posted on January 6, 2014 by ockoalaJanuary 6, 2014

It’s been two weeks since there was a new episode of Empress Ki and I’m interested to see if the drama returns from its hiatus with renewed vigor and a jump start on what had became a rather plodding love triangle plus palace intrigue combo. I thought if the drama ratings increased steadily it would have past 30 by now … Continue reading →

Yoon Si Yoon Steps Up his Second Lead Pursuit in Prime Minister and I

A Koala's Playground Posted on January 5, 2014 by ockoalaJanuary 5, 2014

It’s a testament to how into the drama I am that when I see Yoon Si Yoon hugging Yoona in the latest stills for Prime Minister and I, I started screaming “get your hands off her, you jackass!” before realizing I was yelling at my baby Si Yoon. His character Kang In Ho is turning into an easy target to … Continue reading →

Empress Ki Shifts Gears in Episode 19 as Seung Nyang Happily Rejoins the Goryeo Men

A Koala's Playground Posted on January 4, 2014 by ockoalaJanuary 3, 2014

Last week Empress Ki fans lost out on two new episodes of the drama but won out on seeing the entire main cast attending the MBC Drama Awards and taking home lots of trophies including the coveted top prize Daesang for Ha Ji Won. I understand the rationale for awarding the Daesang (or even acting prizes) to actors and actresses … Continue reading →

Written and Video Preview for Episode 8 of Prime Minister and I

A Koala's Playground Posted on January 3, 2014 by ockoalaJanuary 3, 2014

It’s a testament to how much I’ve grown to love Yoona that I even think her SNSD group mates swinging by the Prime Minister and I set for a visit is the cutest sweetest thing ever. I don’t follow K-pop in the slightest but I remain perplexed by the popularity of SNSD since it appears to be just a huge … Continue reading →

Written Preview for In A Good Way Episode 8

A Koala's Playground Posted on January 3, 2014 by ockoalaJanuary 3, 2014

Despite the recent video preview for In a Good Way showing that Jia En gets lost in the mountains at the same time a notorious kidnapping murder suspect is on the loose, the written preview doesn’t hint at that narrative but instead is much more school centric. Jia En and Liu Chuan have moved past the 3631 tangle and is … Continue reading →

Age of Feeling Releases Official Posters and Intense Sprawling Preview

A Koala's Playground Posted on January 2, 2014 by ockoalaJanuary 2, 2014

Next week Pretty Boy ends which means the long in production Age of Feeling (Inspiring Generation) with Kim Hyun Joong finally sees the light of day. I’m actually very intrigued both in terms of the story as well as whether this drama has a chance to put a dent in the runaway success of You From Another Star. Normally big-budget … Continue reading →

Lovely Ice-skating Date Stills of Jang Geun Seok and IU in Pretty Boy

A Koala's Playground Posted on January 2, 2014 by ockoalaJanuary 2, 2014

It feels like Pretty Boy is the drama that drama-watchers have forgotten about. I rarely hear anyone still watching it and its abysmal ratings isn’t balanced out by a rabid online fanbase that other lowly rated dramas in the past such as Playful Kiss or even Jang Geun Seok‘s own Love Rain had. On the flip side is that no … Continue reading →

Video Preview for Episode 8 of In A Good Way

A Koala's Playground Posted on January 1, 2014 by ockoalaJanuary 1, 2014

Oh man, I cannot believe In A Good Way went there and then managed to integrate it into the story. Episode 7 ended at the start of New Year 1997, but the latest video preview for episode 8 indicates a time jump to the Summer of ’97. Let me explain because that Summer the entire island was gripped in the … Continue reading →

KBS Confirms Extension and Releases Happy Running Stills from Episode 7 of Prime Minister and I

A Koala's Playground Posted on December 30, 2013 by ockoalaDecember 30, 2013

While MBC is preempting both episodes of Empress Ki and SBS is doing the same for Warm Words, KBS is the sole network airing a new episode of its Mon-Tues drama Prime Minister and I. But only one episode 7 will air tonight and thus the broadcast schedule will be disrupted. KBS has decided to add one more episode to … Continue reading →

Preview for Empress Ki Episode 19 as it’s Preempted this Week for MBC Year End Programs

A Koala's Playground Posted on December 29, 2013 by ockoalaDecember 29, 2013

The downside is that this week has no new episodes of Empress Ki as both days are preempted for year end shows on MBC while tn the upside is that the leads will be attending the MBC Drama Awards which means nice network recognition acting awards are forthcoming. An added bonus is we get to see the leads Ha Ji … Continue reading →

Prime Minister and I Episode 7 Written Preview

A Koala's Playground Posted on December 27, 2013 by ockoalaDecember 27, 2013

I think there is only one episode of Prime Minister and I next week, and in fact most of the K-dramas might have one or even both episodes preempt due to year end award shows and the like. I’m cool with that since I’m also on vacation and all, but I’m going to be hella anxious if episode 7 ends … Continue reading →
