Shin in Elle Girl and Nylon Magazine with Cross Gene

A Koala's Playground Posted on July 28, 2012 by ockoalaJuly 28, 2012

I won’t even pretend that I care about the new guy idol group Cross Gene, or know any of the other members other than my baby boy, aside from knowing that if the group keeps getting more popular, I’ll keep getting more Shin Won Ho. Yay! This is totally like NEWS all over again, where I could care less who … Continue reading →

Yoo Seung Ho is Adorable in New Vega S5 Cellphone CF

A Koala's Playground Posted on July 25, 2012 by ockoalaJuly 25, 2012

After seeing the first still of my precious Yoo Seung Ho in the character of the Celestial Emperor in Arang and the Magistrate, I am now sated and content to wait for the drama to arrive August 15th. Luckily there is a first peek at the Vega CF starring Yoo Seung Ho looking his patented combo of boyish and manly. … Continue reading →

Moon Geun Young Attends Summer Retreat with Namoo Actors

A Koala's Playground Posted on July 15, 2012 by ockoalaJuly 15, 2012

It’s fast approaching two years since Moon Geun Young last was onscreen in either a movie or drama, but I’m only keeping track because I miss her and not because I think she ought to delay her education to make crappy projects for the sake of exposure. She’s been busy finishing up her degree at Sungkyunkwan University and will graduate … Continue reading →

Yoon Eun Hye is Retro Fab at the Cartier Tank Watch Exhibit

A Koala's Playground Posted on July 15, 2012 by ockoalaJuly 15, 2012

Yoon Eun Hye was recently in Madagascar participating as a celebrity volunteer for the KBS program 2012 Road to Hope. While I can be cynical and decry celebrity involvement in charitable activities as patting themselves on the back, I do believe certain stars and average citizens alike are genuinely interested in causes that go beyond getting great press. Eun Hye … Continue reading →

Ha Ji Won Wows with her Golf Swing in KEB CF

A Koala's Playground Posted on July 12, 2012 by ockoalaJuly 11, 2012

This yeoja is seriously stunning. I often think its a travesty to film Ha Ji Won in anything less than all glammed up, because she brings the feminine oomph dialed up to 120. But then again, I think she’s a fantastic actor and can do anything. Which is why I’m hoping after she wraps the K-movie Joseon’s Angels, she’ll take … Continue reading →

Kim Ji Hoon is Released from Military Service

A Koala's Playground Posted on July 11, 2012 by ockoalaJuly 11, 2012

He’s back, he’s back, he’s really really back! While Kim Nam Gil‘s imminent release from military service is getting way more publicity, since his agent has been fielding drama offers left and right, I’m way more excited about how Kim Ji Hoon totally snuck back under the radar. His entrance into military service was low key and now his release … Continue reading →

Ariel Lin and Kim Bum are Captivating for Eichitoo in Official Stills and Videos

A Koala's Playground Posted on July 8, 2012 by ockoalaMay 17, 2015

What can I say? Gorgeous is as gorgeous does. Ariel Lin pairing with Kim Bum for Eichitoo is the sort of dream I used to think only happened in an alternate universe. Eichitoo released a boatload of pictures of Ariel and Bummie gamely and glamorously modeling their wares. After watching the BTS videos and sneak peaks at the CF, I’m … Continue reading →

Ha Ji Won in Sun-Drenched Mexico for Bazaar Magazine

A Koala's Playground Posted on July 1, 2012 by ockoalaJune 30, 2012

I’ve always thought Ha Ji Won was a goddess, but after The King 2 Hearts she’s become my queen (and probably Lee Seung Gi‘s as well, heh). After the drama wrapped, she took a trip to North America that involved some events in LA and a trip down to Los Cabos for a photoshoot for Harper’s Bazaar Korea. It’s not … Continue reading →

Lee Dong Wook in Australia for Sure Magazine July Edition

A Koala's Playground Posted on June 28, 2012 by ockoalaJune 28, 2012

Lee Dong Wook. Being seksi in Australia for Sure Magazine. The end. What? You guys need more words from me? Wookie has been on television regularly these days since taking over co-hosting duties on Strong Heart, occupying the position formerly held by Lee Seung Gi. It’s still odd to me since the two men appear to have such vastly different … Continue reading →

Lee Seung Gi Represents Samsung for the Olympic Torch Relay in London

A Koala's Playground Posted on June 25, 2012 by ockoalaJune 24, 2012

For all you UK drama fans, I’m sorry I was rather preoccupied lately and couldn’t give you the heads up that Lee Seung Gi was going to be in your neck of the woods this week. My adorable boy was there to carry the Olympic torch on behalf of Samsung, where he is one of their primary star endorsers, and … Continue reading →

Jung So Min and Im Shi Wan Pair Up in a Wide Ranging Pictorial

A Koala's Playground Posted on June 23, 2012 by ockoalaJune 23, 2012

It’s rather ironic for me to see Jung So Min paired up with Im Shi Wan, because they are almost opposites in how I perceive their acting. Min Min is the queen of 101 natural expressions, so vivid and candid without coming across as gummy or overacting. Shi Wan has at most one and a half expressions, and I’m rather … Continue reading →

Kim Bum and Ariel Lin Dazzles in Endorsement for Eichitoo

A Koala's Playground Posted on June 21, 2012 by ockoalaJune 21, 2012

Holy Moly, the amount of sheer beauty in this post is unreal. Chinese clothing brand Eichitoo released a slew of new pictures of its newest spokescouple Kim Bum and Ariel Lin, and I swear my breath caught in my throat and I couldn’t make a noise for a good ten seconds. Almost turned purple, but that is the power of … Continue reading →

Latest Batch of Cute Shin Pictures from Ceci Magazine and His Website

A Koala's Playground Posted on June 20, 2012 by ockoalaJune 19, 2012

Yeah, that’s my baby boy there. Shin made the pages of July’s Ceci Magazine prolly on account of his going from cute new idol to boy-who-competes-with-Gong-Yoo in screen presence. Let me say that while Gong Yoo is reaching new acting heights in Big, especially as he comes back from the one year time skip as new and improved Kyung Joon, … Continue reading →
