The evolution of Lee Jun Ki continues full throttle after he tackled a really layered and fascinating character in melodrama Flower of Evil. He had to share the spotlight in the second half with gone full crazy Kim Ji Hoon and that made for double the pleasure. He’s in the pages of Arena Korea this month for a stylistic and … Continue reading →

I totally forget that the Navy uniforms make everyone look like Popeye the Sailorman crossed with the 80’s Japanese high school girl uniform on top. K-actor Park Bo Gum is doing his darnest to make those Navy stripes proud as mere two months after enlisting for his military service he was already MC-ing an event for the military.

I’m a little late with this post but better late than never with something so pretty. K-actress Son Ye Jin has been low key since wrapping hit tvN drama Crash Landing on You and though she was offered the sageuk Moon Rising Over the River (early called Cut to the Heart) she ended up passing and the entire drama got … Continue reading →

Joo Won Trades His Cop Casual From Alice for Dreamy Sensitive Look in New Pictorial

A Koala's Playground Posted on October 11, 2020 by ockoalaOctober 11, 2020
Young person holding dried flower, thoughtful expression.

I’m still on the fence on whether the best thing about SBS fantasy time travel drama Alice is Joo Won or second male lead Kwak Shi Yang. It’s not a diss on Joo Won because he’s been incredibly on point in that drama since the very beginning but his character feels so reactive where his time traveler daddy is all … Continue reading →

A Koala's Playground Posted on October 10, 2020 by ockoalaOctober 9, 2020

Until I watched K-dramas I never realized an entire population would be captivated by a physical trait known as “small face”. Like, what? Years later it’s clear that having a small face remains frequently used in netizen comments and even reporters writing about dramas and movies, that a particular lead is very handsome with his proportions and small face. This … Continue reading →

K-actor Kim Woo Bin‘s return to his entertainment career has been a slow ramp up since last November when he attended the Blue Dragon Awards as a presenter. Slow and steady is especially important as his health remains a top priority despite recovering from cancer after three years off for treatment. I want to see him pursue that evolving and … Continue reading →

There are so many accolades deservingly heaped on recently concluded tvN drama Flower of Evil and one of them is definitely lead actor Kim Ji Hoon taking on a surprising villainous role. He’s not done a true baddie before, even early on in his career and when he was firmly in second male lead territory he always played characters the … Continue reading →

Wow, 16 years is a loooong time and K-actress Moon Geun Young went from late teen to mature actress in that span of time she was with agency Namoo Actors. Her last 5 years in acting projects hasn’t been the most high profile of her career so a fresh reboot is not a bad decision. She’s amicably parting ways with … Continue reading →

Most of the remaining K-dramas of 2020 are cast and readying for production so I’m banking on new year new everything career wise for the lovely Kim Yoo Jung.

Hyun Bin Returns From Nearly Two Months Filming in Jordan for Thriller Movie Bargaining

Back in the days a K-star will wear a face mask when exiting the airport to keep the media at bay from recognizing them but now everyone is wearing masks and the media is getting even better at recognizing them lol. Practice makes perfect, and honestly a specimen of male lead perfection like Hyun Bin just exudes “I’m someone famous” … Continue reading →

Gosh, I didn’t realize how much I needed real life Lee Min Ho, as opposed to airbrushed to perfection and playing a perfectly written male hero role Lee Min Ho. Real like Lee Min Ho is a real life version of a derp hottie, so preternaturally handsome but really a big dork at heart. It’s so clear to see in … Continue reading →
