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 →

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 →

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 →

I’m normally okay with preemptions these days since it’s been awhile since a K-drama got me addicted but I’m thisclose to be super addicted to MBC weekly rom-com A Good Day to be a Dog and this week’s unexpected non-airing of episode 4 hit me like ice cold water. I need my doggie couple and the obligatory cuteness of doggie … Continue reading →

As a dog mom and a lover of rom-coms I’m feeling more and more excited for upcoming KBS drama A Good Day to be a Dog. Adapted from the same name webtoon, it’s got a silly premise but with the right leads can totally pull it off. The latest poster has leads Park Kyu Young and Cha Eun Woo in … Continue reading →

Park Kyu Young and Cha Eun Woo Adorable in New Stills and Teaser for MBC Fantasy Romance A Good Day to be a Dog

A Koala's Playground Posted on September 15, 2023 by ockoalaSeptember 15, 2023
Young adults in various romantic settings.

Until I watched Park Kyu Young in one of my fave rom-coms Dali and the Cocky Prince I didn’t find her all that suitable as a romantic leading lady. Afterwards I realized she’s not just a natural at the rom-com cadence but she has excellent chemistry with her leading men, she had it in spades with both male leads in … Continue reading →

MBC continues to lag in ratings and buzz and I’m not expecting this drama to change much other than I’m curious and interested to watch it. The first stills are out for A Good Day to be a Dog adapted from a webtoon about a high school teacher with the curse to turn into a dog when she kisses someone. … Continue reading →
