A Koala's Playground Posted on December 28, 2022 by ockoalaDecember 28, 2022
Four characters posing with weapons dramatically.

Having Reborn Rich end feels like a wild ride just finished and now I can wander around the amusement park and try new dramas. TVing fantasy supernatural horror drama Island is coming in two days on December 30th with its live action adaptation of a popular webtoon about a group fighting against an ancient evil on Jeju Island.

TVing Supernatural Action Thriller Island Releases Compelling Horror Tinged Previews to Up the Interest Level

A Koala's Playground Posted on December 10, 2022 by ockoalaDecember 10, 2022
Four characters posing with weapons dramatically.

Now this is what I’m talkin’ about! The new previews for upcoming TVing supernatural with horror tinged K-drama Island released substantive previews that are rollicking good fun. My first thought is that Kim Nam Gil is going back to high fighting Bidam roots but this time in modern garb, and then the long preview ended with a flashback to historical … Continue reading →

Kim Nam Gil and Sung Joon are Bringing the Intensity in Character Posters for TVing Demon Fighting Drama Island

A Koala's Playground Posted on November 22, 2022 by ockoalaNovember 22, 2022
Four characters posing with weapons dramatically.

I judge character dramas on the design, and these look good, but then mostly on whether the actor or actress behind the character is bringing it. It’s half-brung here for the posters of Island, the upcoming supernatural demon fighting in Jeju K-drama starring Kim Nam Gil, Lee Da Hee, Cha Eun Woo, and Sung Joon, in that two of the … Continue reading →

The Fight Between Good and Evil is Coming in the First Teaser Poster for TVing Fantasy Drama Island with Kim Nam Gil

A Koala's Playground Posted on November 8, 2022 by ockoalaNovember 8, 2022
Casting announcement for TVING series Disneyland.

I don’t think skipping the casting of Seo Ye Ji for the upcoming TVing drama Island has anything impact on the audience excitement as everyone keeps getting hyped up for the return of Kim Nam Gil in a big budget action thriller like this. His last drama Through the Darkness was so highly lauded by critics and appreciated by viewers … Continue reading →

Nam Joo Hyuk and Cha Eun Woo Show Up at Same Event in Identical Leather Jacket Serving Two Different Vibes

A Koala's Playground Posted on October 22, 2022 by ockoalaOctober 22, 2022
Two men waving at a promotional event.

Oooooh, shirt collision time! It’s been awhile since stars accidentally wore the same thing to an event as stylists and fashion houses are much more careful. Cha Eun Woo and Nam Joo Hyuk had a moment last night at a movie premiere thanks to one very leathery leather jacket. It was hella expensive and clearly the brand made more than … Continue reading →

Kakao Webtoon Selects Cha Eun Woo, Han So Hee, and Lee Soo Hyuk as the Human Personas for the Upcoming Webtoon The Villainess is A Marionette

A Koala's Playground Posted on October 1, 2022 by ockoalaSeptember 30, 2022
Two women in elegant attire, fantasy theme.

Okay, I think I just saw the perfect female lead casting for the upcoming K-drama adaptation of Korean webtoon Remarried Empress. Han So Hee as Navier! Why have I never seen it, and now I’ve seen it I can’t unsee it haha. Of course, if it was Han So Hee from before she got famous I could totally see her … Continue reading →

A Koala's Playground Posted on September 25, 2022 by ockoalaSeptember 25, 2022
Collage of actors and animated characters.

I don’t know if this is an upgrade for Cha Eun Woo to go from the korean fried chicken drama to this dog drama but I personally love dogs more so upgrade! A new K-drama adapted from a webtoon is on its way called A Good Day to be a Dog. It will star Park Gyu Young as the titular … Continue reading →

Park Seo Joon and Kim Go Eun Top the Japan Viewer Poll on Favorite K-drama Female and Male Stars

A Koala's Playground Posted on November 25, 2021 by ockoalaNovember 27, 2021
Smiling woman with colorful event poster background.

I still remember when Bae Yong Joon and Choi Ji Woo would top every Japan viewer poll on anything Hallyu related for a good decade and more after Winter Sonata swept the nation. They’ve dropped off for years now but it’s still interesting to see which Korean stars are resonating with Japanese audiences and I get they definitely have a … Continue reading →

Burberry either has a ton of endorsements in South Korean or it’s just got plenty of sway to lure this many famous faces to attend this week’s event in Seoul at its flagship store. Han Hyo Joo and Moon Ga Young brought different actress vibes with the former more ladylike and the latter going for cool young hipness. For the … Continue reading →

tvN Fantasy Exorcism Drama Island Confirms Cast of Kim Nam Gil, Lee Da Hee, Cha Eun Woo, and the Return of Sung Joon Playing the Big Bad

A Koala's Playground Posted on September 28, 2021 by ockoalaSeptember 27, 2021
Four portraits of stylish Asian actors.

This was always going to be an ambitious drama production, with many CGII elements needed and a dark tone that would needed to be balanced for the majority K-drama viewing populace. That it’s initial leading lady pick had to bow out due to her poor real life behavior scandal was enough to delay everything. Now it’s back on track and … Continue reading →

A Koala's Playground Posted on August 26, 2021 by ockoalaAugust 26, 2021
Young man in blazer sitting against blue background.

Hul, talk about so weird I actually had to read the synopsis twice to process and also that this is apparently a wacky comedic of sorts and not some horror story. Cha Eun Woo will continue his drama streak after True Beauty, up next is playing the second male lead in fantasy supernatural drama Island and he may have yet … Continue reading →

There is casting updates around second half 2021 tvN drama Island, with a new fresh-faced male lead taking over for a prior name associated with the drama. Cha Eun Woo will be the other male lead in Island for the role that was initially courting Im Shi Wan who has clearly passed on it. I’m still unsold on Cha Eun … Continue reading →

Four men in stylish suits posing together.

Well this is a random four-box selection lol. Not that I have a complaint about any one selection just never would have smushed them into the same group. Popular and long-running Japanese ladies magazine 25ans held a poll of its readers (skewing 30s-20s age bracket) to ask who are the new or current generation of the Four Hallyu Kings, OG … Continue reading →
