Netflix Denies May 2026 Release for The Wonderfools and Civic Tax Group Files Complaint Against Tax Official Over Release of the Fact that Cha Eun Woo is Under Investigation

A Koala's Playground Posted on February 11, 2026 by ockoalaFebruary 11, 2026

The Cha Eun Woo tax evasion scandal started before his fellow agency mate Kim Sun Ho but that one wrapped up quickly (admission and apology and payment of taxes) while his seems to still be ongoing for whatever reason. For scandals its a double edged sword of concluding quickly to move on faster or drag on until hopefully the next … Continue reading →

The fallout is already starting to be covered in K-ent with the recent tax evasion scandals with same agency stars Cha Eun Woo and then Kim Sun Ho.

K-netizens Note that Shinhan Bank is Now the Cursed Advertiser in South Korea After Three Consecutive Spokesmodels Cha Eun Woo, NewJeans, and Kim Soo Hyun Encounter Scandals

A Koala's Playground Posted on January 26, 2026 by ockoalaJanuary 26, 2026

For a few years now Asian entertainment has noted that Italian couture house Prada appears to be the cursed advertisers with both Mainland Chinese and South Korean stars that rep the brand getting cancelled for various personal scandals. Now there is a domestic equivalent with Shinhan Bank seeing not one, or two, but three of its high profile star spokespersons … Continue reading →

K-star Cha Eun Woo Under Investigation for Alleged Tax Evasion of Around $13.6 Million USD

A Koala's Playground Posted on January 22, 2026 by ockoalaJanuary 22, 2026

Oh this is not good news to wake up and see for me. If true what a shame, a clean reputation to date tanked to save on taxes. K-ent is reporting that actor-singer Cha Eun Woo is under investigation for tax evasion by the government, and it actually started in spring of 2025 so last year. The gist of it … Continue reading →

First Look at Comedic Superhero Netflix K-drama The WONDERfools with Park Eun Bin and Cha Eun Woo

A Koala's Playground Posted on January 8, 2026 by ockoalaJanuary 7, 2026

So the drama title is stylized exactly to read The WONDERfools, soon to air in 2026 on Netflix and starring Park Eun Bin and Cha Eun Woo. I can’t even describe what this drama is about better than Netflix itself with this blurb – “A goofy group of townies stumbles into superpowers and fights rising evil as doomsday panic grows … Continue reading →

Cha Eun Woo and Go Min Si in Talks for the Next Hong Sisters Penned K-drama

A Koala's Playground Posted on January 9, 2025 by ockoalaJanuary 9, 2025

So this is a big casting news so rather frustrating to have zero anything substantive about it. K-ent is reporting that Cha Eun Woo and Go Min Si have been offered the leads in the next Hong Sisters K-drama, with some saying Go Min Si is confirmed while Cha Eun Woo is still considering. There is no information about the … Continue reading →

Cha Eun Woo Offered Male Lead Role Opposite Park Eun Bin in Her Next Drama The Wonder Fools

A Koala's Playground Posted on July 27, 2024 by ockoalaJuly 26, 2024

So award winning K-actress Park Eun Bin has been inked for her next drama for some time now but now her male lead has floated to the surface. Cha Eun Woo has been offered the role and his agency says he’s considering but I can’t see how he would pass on this. The drama is called The Wonder Fools (original … Continue reading →

MBC Fri-Sat Thriller Revenge Drama Wonderful World with Kim Nam Joo and Cha Eun Woo Doubles in Ratings Through 9-episodes Aired So Far

A Koala's Playground Posted on March 30, 2024 by ockoalaMarch 30, 2024
Two hosts engaged in lively conversation.

My hats off to the MBC Fri-Sat drama Wonderful World for being a slow and sure storyteller and getting the recognition. The drama debuted with 5% ratings and the most recent episode 11 got over 11%, doubling the ratings with even room for further growth. Kim Nam Joo is a veteran actress with a track record of good drama selection … Continue reading →

Veteran Leading Lady Kim Nam Joo Speaks Everyone’s Mind When Asked What the Roles are in Her New Drama Wonderful World with Cha Eun Woo

A Koala's Playground Posted on March 2, 2024 by ockoalaMarch 1, 2024
Actors making a heart shape together.

I love when a star speaketh not just the truth but what the vast majority of audience members are thinking. Leading lady Kim Nam Joo was out promoting her new drama Wonderful World this week and was a guest on a variety show and was asked about her working with Cha Eun Woo. She explained that once she explained to … Continue reading →

Cha Eun Woo Transforms into a Bike Riding Welder in New Drama Wonderful World

I give Cha Eun Woo credit for taking on drama after drama and continuing to improve. His micro expressions and quite decent comedic timing in his most recent drama A Good Day to be a Dog reminded me yet again that in the right role he’s quite pleasing and pleasant to watch onscreen. He is also willing to expand beyond … Continue reading →

Cha Eun Woo’s Steamy Kissing Ability in Episode 9 of A Good Day to be a Dog Makes the News

A Koala's Playground Posted on December 8, 2023 by ockoalaDecember 7, 2023
Couple sharing a romantic kiss.

I’m so amused by the K-media on one hand denigrating Cha Eun Woo for still being not a good (enough) actor but on the other hand finding his kissing skillz more than good enough to write about. In all seriousness, it’s even making the news because as an idol he’s actually going full kissing (tongue and all) in the latest … Continue reading →

Cha Eun Woo and Song Kang are Criticized in K-media for their Lack of Improvement in Acting and Coasting on Top Level Good Looks

A Koala's Playground Posted on December 6, 2023 by ockoalaDecember 7, 2023
Two young men in stylish outfits.

I would say that a good drama goes a long way to making me have a soft spot for less than stellar stars and Song Kang and Cha Eun Woo fits that bill exactly. I’ve liked them despite their admittedly limited acting skills because when each plays the right role it just works and the performance is entertaining to watch. … Continue reading →

MBC Pre-empts This Week’s Episode 5 of A Good Day to be a Dog Continuing to Thwart Me

A Koala's Playground Posted on November 7, 2023 by ockoalaNovember 7, 2023
Group of people and dog in a park.

I feel like I’m in a stare down with MBC and it keeps calling my bluff that I will abandon this drama. Wednesday rom-com A Good Day to be a Dog only has 14 episodes and airs once a week and already MBC has pre-empted it once and will do so again this week. Episode 5 will have to wait … Continue reading →
