Pregnant Jeon Ji Hyun Elegant as Always in Strategically Bag Placed New CF Pictorial

A Koala's Playground Posted on August 19, 2017 by ockoalaAugust 19, 2017

I love this new Jeon Ji Hyun pictorial doubly for how beautiful she looks and how the photographer strategically shot every frame to use the bags she’s modeling to hide her second pregnancy. It does double duty of emphasizing the bags which makes me wonder why bag makers don’t just pick pregnant stars to do all their ad campaigns because … Continue reading →

Kim Ha Neul Goes Metallic Leather in Near Hit Fashion at Estee Lauder CF Event

Smiling woman in stylish outfit walking.

Fashion is subject and I totally accept others liking outfits I find fugly and vice-versa, but what interests me more is dissecting why something works for me or doesn’t. Its similar to the qualitative commentary over acting performances which is rarely uniform in feedback. Recently I thoroughly lulz-ed over Park Min Young‘s 90’s crossed with 70’s slit and cutout polyester … Continue reading →

It’s a little over a month away for actor Kang Ha Neul‘s upcoming military enlistment on September 11, 2017, giving him time to promote his cop caper movie Midnight Runners with costar Park Seo Joon but having him drop out of upcoming drama sequel Bad Guys 2. He’s been such a hard working acting presence since his breakout role in … Continue reading →

Lin Chi Ling and the Summer Backdrop of Monaco Both Shine in Taiwan Vogue Pictorial

A fantastic pictorial needs to be shared and this latest gem from Vogue Taiwan visually marries the exquisite Taiwanese top model Lin Chi Ling with the Euro splendor of Monaco. That Lin Chi Ling is 42 year old doesn’t even phase because she’s even more beautiful if you ask me, she seemed gawkier during her heyday but now has an … Continue reading →

Ishihara Satomi Releases Beautifully Shot 15th Anniversary Photo Book Shot in Cuba

When I hear someone has been doing a job for fifteen years I tend to ascribe a slightly older age bracket to them so it’s really incredible that J-actress Ishihara Satomi is celebrating her 15th anniversary in J-ent this year and she’s only 30 years old. She just released a special 15th anniversary photo book, a staple among younger Japanese … Continue reading →

W Korea Presents Park Shin Hye as an 80’s Femme Fatale Look in August Issue

The summer of Park Shin Hye fashion pictorials continues and I’m glad this one from W Magazine is arriving towards the tail end because it’s my least favorite to date. W is high fashion in concept but this pictorial is more old-fashioned or at least it really ages up Park Shin Hye and wastes her young girlish charms. She actually … Continue reading →

Hani in Hawaii Embodies the Summer Vibe in Breezy Discovery Expedition Pictorial

Summer days reminds me at times of the fleeting shelf life of idol stars, even more precarious than their acting colleagues as popularity hinges on one song or even one performance. EXID‘s Hani is someone who was everywhere two summers ago when the group’s hit “Up and Down” propelled her to near instantaneous super stardom. Last year she was also … Continue reading →

Lee Dong Wook is a Modern Flower Gentleman for Marie Claire Korea

A Koala's Playground Posted on August 1, 2017 by ockoalaJuly 31, 2017
Smiling person in a suit holding flowers.

I do love a talented Korean flower boy, slurped up plenty of flower boy type K-dramas over the year as long as the acting is on point and the story charming. With that said there are fewer and fewer new flower boy types that correctly straddle the line between absurdly good looking but still maintaining the veneer of manliness, think … Continue reading →

Park Shin Hye Does Rich Heiress Look for August Issue of Elle Hong Kong

A Koala's Playground Posted on July 29, 2017 by ockoalaJuly 29, 2017
Magazine cover featuring elegant woman in dress.

It’s the summer of Park Shin Hye pictorials and I’m not complaining because each have been distinctive and beautiful in highlighting her charisma even in print. The latest comes from Elle Hong Kong, portraying a couture society princess look that imagines if Park Shin Hye played one of the rich high school girl characters in Heirs rather than her poor … Continue reading →

Yang Mi Ravishing in Chic Chanel Outfit at Press Conference for C-movie Brotherhood of Blades 2

A Koala's Playground Posted on July 24, 2017 by ockoalaJuly 23, 2017

Success must be a glorious and beautifying elixir because C-actress Yang Mi has been on fire level gorgeous since starting the year off on a mega high note with the drama adaptation of Three Lives Three Worlds, Ten Miles Peach Blossoms (Eternal Love). I don’t think I’ve seen her styled as beautifully in any period C-drama as she was arrayed … Continue reading →

Suzy is K-star Dressing Goals in Chic Black Suit and Bootie Ensemble at Airport

A Koala's Playground Posted on July 24, 2017 by ockoalaJuly 24, 2017
Young woman with long hair and bright lipstick.

I feel idol-actress Suzy deserves a kudos for her airport outfit last week as she jetted off to Italy to shoot an upcoming fashion pictorial. It’s definitely fashion goals no matter what venue she’s at, and for the usual media scrutiny of K-stars at the airport she definitely hits it out of the park. From the flawless but not caked … Continue reading →

Ha Ji Won Pulls Off Short Wavy Bob with Bangs in Array of Interesting Outfits for Instyle Korea

A Koala's Playground Posted on July 20, 2017 by ockoalaJuly 19, 2017

Ha Ji Won has pulled off yet another transformation in a look I’m surprised to like. The short shoulder length bob with bangs in a soft wave feels a tad young for her, like what a high school or college kid would do for ease of getting ready, yet in the InStyle Korea pictorial the cut has been styled to … Continue reading →

Park Shin Hye Beautiful From Both Profiles for Elle Korea Jewelry Spread

A Koala's Playground Posted on July 19, 2017 by ockoalaJuly 20, 2017
Model in pale blue lace dress, thoughtful expression

I often hear stories of stars favoring one side view over another, some to the point of strict control and obsessive dislike of the other side. I’m sure if I stared intently on pictures of myself from every conceivable angle I can find nits with one side and favor the other, but then who has the time and the energy for … Continue reading →
