A Koala's Playground Posted on December 20, 2024 by ockoalaDecember 21, 2024
Three people posing for portraits.

This is an interesting twist on what sounds like a standard legal K-drama, the male lead attorney can see ghosts lol. MBC has confirmed the production on a legal drama airing in mid-2024 titled Labor Attorney Noh Moo Jin. The drama will star Jung Kyung Ho as the titular lawyer who is an ambulance chaser of sorts, he can see … Continue reading →

Park Eun Bin Delivers a Hit to tvN as Castaway Diva Hits 7.988% Ratings by Episode 4 But the Drama Becomes the Who is Ki Ho Show Between the Male Leads

A Koala's Playground Posted on November 6, 2023 by ockoalaNovember 6, 2023
Four characters exchange intense expressions.

So my love for screenwriter Park Hye Ryun is basically contrary to mainstream lol, I’m so invested in Pinocchio, While You Were Sleeping, and Start-Up, but her bigger hits are I Hear Your Voice and now Castaway Diva which I am enjoying but not rabid about. Her formula is still at work here to great success, an engaging and emotionally … Continue reading →

tvN Weekend Drama Castaway Diva Premieres to Low-ish 3.172% Ratings But Jumps in Second Episode to 5.155% with Solid Reviews

A Koala's Playground Posted on October 30, 2023 by ockoalaOctober 30, 2023
Two characters on a rocky beach backdrop.

Last weekend was a big new arrival in K-drama land with Castaway Diva premiering on tvN, following Arthdal Chronicles: The Sword of Aramun and with the return of Park Eun Bin after her career elevating hit Extraordinary Attorney Woo last year. I was swamped so haven’t checked it out yet but this is a much watch for me not just … Continue reading →

Park Eun Bin Gets Comparatively Less Famous Chae Jong Hyeob and Cha Hak Yeon as Male Leads for K-drama Diva of the Deserted Island

A Koala's Playground Posted on March 15, 2023 by ockoalaMarch 14, 2023
Two smiling individuals in different outfits.

I’m not sure if other bigger male leads passed on this drama but Park Eun Bin will be working with Chae Jong Hyeob as her costar with Cha Hak Yeon as the supporting lead for Diva of the Deserted Island. But this casting isn’t that odd considering that screenwriter Park Hye Ryun in some of her earlier dramas like Dream … Continue reading →

Young man in traditional clothing performing.

In my rattling off all the Joseon + a profession K-dramas in recent years in my first post about upcoming MBC drama Joseon Lawyer I totally forgot Joseon Exorcist. That list was not meant to be exclusive but goodness JE was a big one so big budget and cancelled after two episodes for a litany of cultural sins. Anyhoo, back … Continue reading →

Keeping expectations low so this one actually looks not bad. MBC Fri-Sat drama is currently Kokdu: Season of Deity which has neither ratings nor buzz and when it ends at the end of March will be succeeded by Joseon Lawyer starring Woo Do Hwan and Bona in what looks like a comedic romp about seeking justice in olden days using … Continue reading →

Third Time’s the Charm as Knowing Wife Wraps Drama Run and Cast Attend Party

The conclusion of tvN time-travel and do-over drama Knowing Wife (Familiar Wife) frees up on Wed-Thurs again after being fairly addicted for the past eight weeks. I tried to watch on the days it aired but wasn’t so engrossed that I couldn’t miss a few same day airings and catch up on the weekends. It was much better than I … Continue reading →
