A Cute Group Photo for Army Colleagues Rain, Im Joo Hwan, and Kim Jae Wook

A Koala's Playground Posted on September 13, 2012 by ockoalaSeptember 11, 2012

Hee. Hee hee hee hee. HOMG laughing my head off forever at the cuteness here. In the army all enlisted men are equal, but clearly some are still prettier than others. The current crop of enlisted Korean actors include some of my favorites like Kim Jae Wook and Im Joo Hwan, so it was to my absolute delight to see … Continue reading →

Jung Kyung Ho Completes Military Service and Heads to the Airport

A Koala's Playground Posted on September 12, 2012 by ockoalaSeptember 11, 2012

Jung Kyung Ho happily completed his military service last week and a few days after he returned to civilian life, the media caught him at the airport already rocking the trying-to-be-surreptitious celebrity travel style. The sunglasses and cap clearly can’t hide this cutie pie from the eagle-eyed photogs. I wonder where he’s off to? Seeing Jung Kyung Ho with his … Continue reading →

Ariel Lin and Rainie Yang Playfully Smooch at the Next Awards

A Koala's Playground Posted on September 8, 2012 by ockoalaSeptember 8, 2012

Is there something in the water in Taiwan, or are Taiwanese celebs suddenly super affectionate with their same-gender pals? Following on the heels of James Wen and Chris Wang smooching three times to pay off a bet for the box office success of The Fierce Wife movie, this past weekend Ariel Lin presented an award to her good friend Rainie … Continue reading →

Jang Geun Seok Rocks Taipei Arena with Flair

A Koala's Playground Posted on September 6, 2012 by ockoalaSeptember 5, 2012

I can’t take Jang Geun Seok seriously anymore. I haven’t written him off, because a boy that immensely talented as an actor cannot simply be written off being he’s apparently going through what appears to be a phase. At least that’s what I’m hoping it is, because if he continues down this path of doing shitty dramas and holding money-making … Continue reading →

Lee Seung Gi Holds First Ever Taiwan Fan Meeting

A Koala's Playground Posted on September 3, 2012 by ockoalaSeptember 2, 2012

Seung Gi, baby boy of mine, you do know you’re not supposed to visit Taiwan without giving your noona (ME!) a heads up and coordinating times with me, right? It was to my utter horror and despair to learn that my beautiful Lee Seung Gi hied himself off to Taipei this weekend for a fan meeting with his Taiwanese fans … Continue reading →

Roy Qiu and Tang Yan Return to San Ya Where They Filmed Waking Up Love

A Koala's Playground Posted on September 1, 2012 by ockoalaSeptember 1, 2012

The are two things I am absolutely certain about when I saw the pictures from Roy Qiu and Tang Yan‘s most recent ad campaign fan event held in touristy beach town San Ya, China – Roy needs to get some sleep and Tang Yan needs to eat about 3 sandwiches a meal for one month straight. Despite fanning the flames … Continue reading →

Mike He and Chris Wang Pair Up for Snappy Biore Skincare CF

A Koala's Playground Posted on August 26, 2012 by ockoalaAugust 24, 2012

Whenever I travel around Asia I love to watch network television not for the programs but for the CFs. The commercials are always fun and colorful, and also gives me a better idea of who and what is popular. Mike He has been notably absent from TW-dramas for the past year since he wrapped Love Keeps Going (so bad I … Continue reading →

Final Batch of Photos of Ariel Lin and Kim Bum for Echitoo

A Koala's Playground Posted on August 25, 2012 by ockoalaAugust 24, 2012

I’m still pinching myself despite posting multiple times about the Kim Bum and Ariel Lin collaboration for the Echitoo Fall ad campaign. Fandoms colliding is a magical and interesting experience, one which either works or fails spectacularly. Everything about the Bummie and Ariel couples shoot for Echitoo screams Epic Amazeballs. Ariel looks younger than her age while Bummie channels a … Continue reading →

Joe Cheng Meets the TW-media After Enlisting for Military Service

A Koala's Playground Posted on August 24, 2012 by ockoalaAugust 24, 2012

When Joe Cheng quietly snuck off to enlist last week, I thought he wanted to avoid the media scrutiny and keep his shaved head under wraps. Turns out he just wanted to be low key, and this week he got a day off to visit family and he happily left the training camp to speak with the media gather outside. … Continue reading →

Sneak Peek at Mind Bridge Fall 2012 Ad Campaign with Gong Yoo and Lee Min Jung

A Koala's Playground Posted on August 21, 2012 by ockoalaAugust 22, 2012

I’m still slowly coming off the high of Big, despite knowing that the story was mostly all expectations that weren’t met, ultimately what little that did pay off truly connected with me. I think of Da Ran and Kyung Joon somewhere falling in love again, and telling the world that it can take its objections and shove it. Gong Yoo … Continue reading →

Additional Stills of Jung Woo Sung and Yoo Seung Ho in Vogue Korea

A Koala's Playground Posted on August 20, 2012 by ockoalaAugust 17, 2012

Everyone knows my actors biases so whenever I can cram my faves together for any reason I go for it. I posted last week about the 12 K-actors selected for Vogue Korea’s 16th Anniversary edition, and each of the 12 actors were featured in one still each. Turns out the magazine actually had details spreads on each of the actors … Continue reading →

A Koala's Playground Posted on August 15, 2012 by ockoalaOctober 25, 2012

My babies are back together again! I must’ve been good indeed to be rewarded by High Cut magazine sending Kim Soo Hyun and Suzy to New Zealand for an outdoorsy photoshoot. Kim Soo Hyun is riding high in his acting career after winning a Baeksang Best Actor award for The Moon that Embraces the Sun and his Summer ensemble caper … Continue reading →

Ariel Lin Confirms New Relationship with Non-celebrity Boyfriend

A Koala's Playground Posted on August 7, 2012 by ockoalaAugust 6, 2012

Ariel Lin is one of those magnetic actresses that always leads to people shipping her in real life with her leading men. Most notably being Joe Cheng after they did It Started with a Kiss, or Hu Ge after they did Legend of the Condor Heroes 2008, or Mike He after Love Contract, and most recently with Bolin Chen after … Continue reading →
