There’s a really unfortunate and sad all-around news to share coming out of Korea involving Super Junior star Choi Siwon and his family. Earlier in October Choi Siwon’s beloved family French Bulldog Bugsy was off leash in the family apartment complex and ran into an elevator, biting a neighbor who lived in the same complex on her leg.

A Koala's Playground Posted on September 22, 2017 by ockoalaSeptember 22, 2017
Scenes from a suspenseful Korean drama series.

Cable network tvN is not having a good 2017 overall, the Mon-Tues dramas have been disappointments from Sensitive Boss to Bride of the Water God though Argon now is picking up, and Wed-Thurs resumed airing with Criminal Minds was a failed attempt all around. The bright spot has been on Sat-Sun with Living Up to Your Name (Deserving of the Name) … Continue reading →

Three people posing in stylish outfits.

Hopefully this will be one of tvN‘s solid romantic drama outings rather than one of it’s flat footed fails, for some reason the network is pretty extreme in either direction when it comes to rom-coms. In terns of now confirmed casting for upcoming Byun Hyuk’s Love it’s definitely picked right, scooping up just out of the military idol-actor Choi Siwon … Continue reading →

Two uniformed officers waving enthusiastically.

It’s insane that I remember vividly sending off Choi Siwon right after She Was Pretty wrapped and the same feeling of it happened yesterday when Changmin enlisted shortly after Scholar Who Walks the Night. That’s nearly two year ago (!!!) and today the boys in blue are back just in time for the tail end of summer. The fans were … Continue reading →

Oh now this is a promising and unexpected K-drama casting, and I’m happy to hear how in demand the actor in question is. Idol-actor Choi Siwon has been offered the male lead in upcoming romantic drama Byun Hyuk’s Love, with the lack of any news related to Siwon these past two years due to his quiet and uneventful military enlistment … Continue reading →

She Was Pretty Showcases More Colorful Posters and Drama Stills

A Koala's Playground Posted on September 14, 2015 by ockoalaSeptember 13, 2015
Four characters posing in a colorful setting.

It’s basically 50/50 right now on whether upcoming MBC Wed-Thurs drama She Was Pretty will work for me. I gave its predecessor Scholar Who Walks the Night so much leeway and lowered my expectations significantly, and that still wasn’t enough to keep me interest from flagging midway. SWP does have smaller shoes to fill by coming in as a light … Continue reading →

I’m already feeling bad for Hwang Jung Eum and the drama She Was Pretty hasn’t even aired yet. I know her (relatively) uglified look is solely for this particular character, but does she have to be so hapless and always staring up at men? In two new sets of drama stills, both featuring Hwang Jung Eum front and center, she’s … Continue reading →
