A Koala's Playground Posted on October 24, 2022 by ockoalaOctober 24, 2022
Text discussing a performance or event.

Well, nobody asked for this but the likely flop is coming anyways. C-ent is making a C-movie remake of classic Hallyu drama Full House, the one everyone loves to hate or hates to love.

Sliding Scale of When Lead Onscreen Chemistry Saves or Sinks Preposterously Plotted K-dramas

A Koala's Playground Posted on April 26, 2020 by ockoalaApril 26, 2020
K-drama scenes with romance and royalty themes.

Four episodes into watching K-drama The King: Eternal Monarch and it’s a steady stream of “buh” and “huh” and “snooze…..” The story may be disjointed but there have been way worse written K-dramas that have worked better thanks to the onscreen romantic chemistry of the leads – not talking about acting ability, just whether the two leads make the viewer … Continue reading →

Two stylish portraits of young adults.

I’m going to preface, or remind if you read my blog from the early days, that I LOATH the K-drama Full House.

Recess: This Hurts My Eyes So Get it Away From Me

A Koala's Playground Posted on August 23, 2011 by ockoalaAugust 23, 2011

Ji Sung’s unfortunate hairstyle in Protect the Boss is just that – unfortunate. What’s worse is that it’s completely unnecessary. Does that hairstyle actually enhance his character’s unique personality traits? Of course not. Ji Sung is owning the role of Cha Ji Heon by his performance skills alone, and actually doing a battle to make sure his broccoli hair doesn’t … Continue reading →
