My dearest drama friend Thundie, who always has the coolest and most creative posts, whispered to me yesterday that she was running a poll on the May K-dramas, asking folks what is their favorite, etc. I told her I’d make a post just to pimp her poll, so click here to vote away to your heart’s content. It looks like … Continue reading →
We’re just two and a half weeks away from the premiere of the TW-drama Material Queen, and this is one drama where every single promo, still, and trailer gets me more excited about it, where initially I had zero interest. Unlike in Autumn’s Concerto, lead actor Vanness Wu gets to showcase his singer roots and grew-up-in-the-US crossover appeal by singing the theme … Continue reading →
Just a word of warning for you guys – for the last 10 minutes of episode 8 of Lie to Me, I just sat there and sobbed. The uncontrollable pain came from deep within, and it’s a sign I’m so invested in Ah Jung and Ki Joon that when either or both of them hurt, I hurt. The spoiler about … Continue reading →
Dui bu qi. Miahne. Gomen. Sorry to all the Drunkeners out there for this later than usual recap. Yes, I do feel bad when I don’t post on my usual schedule. It was a long weekend here in Koalalandia, plus another drama about a pretend marriage exploded in insane shippiness. So perfect, wonderful, reliable Drunken to Love You took a … Continue reading →
The Hong Sisters love to do cameos in their dramas, and there is no shortage of actors made famous in a Hong Sisters drama that is more than happy to come back. Best Love is the ideal drama for celebrity cameos, because its set in the K-ent world. Park Shi Yeon (who did My Girl) has already cameod as an … Continue reading →
WTF?!?! The latest spoiler pics for Lie to Me just dropped, and I almost herniated my disc from the combination of rage and shock. I’m getting some needle and thread, and a certain chick better be ready for her lips sewn shut. If you told me 3 weeks ago I’d be so invested in the OTP, I would have said … Continue reading →
I know it wasn’t a simple kiss that got me going from indifferent to insanely addicted to Lie to Me. Lots of dramas have great kisses, but what is different for me is that the kiss at the end of episode 6 emotionally connected with me. It was akin to watching two people crazy attracted to each other give in … Continue reading →
Yeah, so that thing I said about keeping spoiler pictures below the jump? That’s kinda getting chucked out the window, especially since my new glorious header gives it all away. So go ahead and stare at the Cola Kiss all you want, and then feast on the preview for episode 8 of Lie to Me. I actually woke up early … Continue reading →
Seeing these previews released my angst considerably with respect to Ae Jung. I never thought she would Heart Break simply by what Jin said, but it’s reassuring to see how their story continues to move forward, inspite all attempts by Jin to stop the runaway train that is his heart. Best Love continues to be the best rom-com on the … Continue reading →
This post is dedicated to my sister (my real one, not my kindred spirit drama sisters), who spent the past week calling me ostensibly to say hi each time, but really it was just an excuse to talk about Dream High. Which really was also an excuse for her to moon over Kim Soo Hyun. I don’t blame her, I … Continue reading →
Dear drama gods: It’s me, Koala. Thank you from the bottom of my heart, for you have truly outdone yourselves this time when you allowed the universe to align and Kang Ji Hwan and Yoon Eun Hye to make a drama together. Sincerely: *still picking jaw off the ground* Hey guys, I’ve never lead off with a spoiler picture, usually … Continue reading →
Of the two K-dramas I am currently watching, the two sets of OTP appear to be going in opposite directions. One is kissing each other towards a head-on collision of love, the other is purposely walking away from each other. The latter refers to Jin and Ae Jung in Best Love, of course, where my insides were twisted into a … Continue reading →
The final episode of Taiwan’s airing of Sunny Happiness is this Sunday night. I haven’t been keeping up with the TW-airing of SH since I’ve watched the darn drama three times now. I know there were cut scenes from the China airing that were added back for the TW-airing, most notably the entire wedding night scene, but now its been … Continue reading →
