New Video Preview for Episode 13 of In A Good Way

A Koala's Playground Posted on February 11, 2014 by ockoalaFebruary 11, 2014

I try to refrain from overusing the word awesome but nothing quite describes episode 12 of In A Good Way as much as screaming out “It was so awesome!!!” and then making victory fist pumps. The Taiwan domestic audience thought so as well and after sitting in the 2s for the last ten episodes the drama surged dramatically and broke … Continue reading →

Palace Intrigue Heats Up in Episode 29 of Empress Ki as Seung Nyang Plots to Steal the Empress Seal

A Koala's Playground Posted on February 10, 2014 by ockoalaFebruary 9, 2014

This week’s Empress Ki will air only 1 episode thanks to the preemption for the Olympics. It’s a bit of a shame because I feel like the drama is really getting to the meat and potatoes of its story. The ascension of Seung Nyang from a warrior maiden into a calculating and determined Empress is every bit as interesting as … Continue reading →

Third Teaser for Full Sun is Both Stylish and Thrilling with an Accidental Death and Lots of Crying

A Koala's Playground Posted on February 7, 2014 by ockoalaFebruary 6, 2014

I’m a little disappointed Full Sun (Beyond the Clouds) won’t air next Monday on KBS. Having that time slot just vacated by Prime Minister and I remain dark for a week without a new K-drama feels as blah as the way my beloved PM signed off without any sizzle. On the upside, no drama production has ever complained about getting … Continue reading →

Consort Seung Nyang and Emperor Ta Hwan Start Getting Closer in Empress Ki

A Koala's Playground Posted on February 2, 2014 by ockoalaFebruary 2, 2014

In a shocking turn of events, Empress Ki has actually gotten really good again in the blink of a two episode eye, a feat made all the more startling considering its detour to far-out makjang land in the even earlier two episodes. I suppose when the story posits that the baby of the Goryeo King and his pretty wifey is … Continue reading →

Picture Spoilers for the Final Week Episodes of Prime Minister and I

A Koala's Playground Posted on February 1, 2014 by ockoalaFebruary 1, 2014

Monday is right around the corner and with it comes the last two episodes of Prime Minister and I. It’s out-and-out my favorite rom-com in the last two years and barring a unprecedented collapse ought to retain that goodwill. Some rom-coms enter the final stretch either just dragging along a conflict with an easy solution or waiting for the OTP … Continue reading →

Stills and Video Preview of the In A Good Way Lunar New Year Special Episode

A Koala's Playground Posted on January 30, 2014 by ockoalaJanuary 29, 2014

I have no clue how Lego Lee is able to princess carry his In A Good Way co-star Kirsten Jen. She’s incredibly thin for her height but she’s one tall girl and about as tall as Lego. Now I need to see more of that man flexing either in the drama or the BTS because his fitness quotient is clearly … Continue reading →

Written and Video Preview for Episode 16 of Prime Minister and I

A Koala's Playground Posted on January 29, 2014 by ockoalaJanuary 29, 2014

I quite loved the ending to episode 15 of Prime Minister and I. It’s been a long time since I’ve seen such a satisfying pull along scene and I was fairly screaming at Yul to drag his runaway errant wife home. The lack of much conversation was even better because nothing needs to be said between them at this point. … Continue reading →

An Apology Red Rose and a Pageant Dance-off is Coming in Episode 13 of Miss Korea

A Koala's Playground Posted on January 28, 2014 by ockoalaJanuary 28, 2014

The recent one-two punch of older man-younger woman K-drama pairings in Lee Bum Soo–Yoona in Prime Minister and I and Lee Seon Kyun–Lee Yeon Hee in Miss Korea is a refreshing change of pace from the popular trend for noona-dongsaeng pairings. I’ve liked plenty of those as well but right now I’m all about the Oppas. I double checked their … Continue reading →

Written and Video Preview for Episode 15 of Prime Minister and I

A Koala's Playground Posted on January 27, 2014 by ockoalaJanuary 27, 2014

It’s safe to say that the shit is about to hit the fan in Prime Minister and I. Episode 15 will be a pivotal episode as the two people most affected by Na Young’s not being dead find out the twist in the story, namely my OTP of Da Jung and Yul. If K-dramas haven’t let me down so often … Continue reading →

Ha Ji Won Transforms into a Yuan Dynasty Consort in Empress Ki

A Koala's Playground Posted on January 27, 2014 by ockoalaJanuary 28, 2014

Hhhhmmm, looking good Ha Ji Won! With more than half its run remaining in Empress Ki, it’s only fitting that the titular character Ki Seung Nyang actually gets to working climbing up the court ladder to before the future Yuan Empress. It’s astounding really that the past twenty something episodes have basically been set up. It’s not unimportant and as … Continue reading →

Written Preview for Episode 11 of In A Good Way

A Koala's Playground Posted on January 24, 2014 by ockoalaJanuary 24, 2014

A few housekeeping items about In A Good Way first before getting to the good stuff about the upcoming episode 11. Next Friday’s episode 12 will be preempted for Lunar New Year so the network is airing a special instead and episode 12 will air the following week on February 7th. Let’s hope episode 11 doesn’t end on a raging … Continue reading →

Written and Video Preview for Episode 14 of Prime Minister and I

A Koala's Playground Posted on January 22, 2014 by ockoalaJanuary 22, 2014

Does anyone else think Kwon Yul is reverse aging in Prime Minister and I? I already think Lee Bum Soo is the bees knees but in the last two episodes of PM he’s literally so smexy I wonder how Da Jung can keep her hands off her hubby. Forget giving him time to figure out his feelings, I’d just kiss … Continue reading →

In A Good Way Stages Campus Concert with Cameo Performances By Rock Stars Wu Bai and Chang Chen Yue

A Koala's Playground Posted on January 22, 2014 by ockoalaJanuary 21, 2014

There is never a bad time for more In A Good Way, right? This drama is my little pick-me-up and each episode always provides a scene or three that I can re-watch over and over. One of my faves happens to be the Liu Chuan-Jia En Taipei motorcycle ride and subsequent Wu Bai and China Blue concert in episode 3, so … Continue reading →
