Lovers of the Red Sky Episodes 11-12 Ratings Stay at 8.8% as the Plot Also Stagnates While the OTP is Kept Apart

A Koala's Playground Posted on October 13, 2021 by ockoalaOctober 13, 2021
Historical drama scene with couples and friends.

Whoever in the plot department thought it was a good idea to put Ha Ram in a jail for the entirety of two full episodes and separated from Chun Gi deserves a spanking. They are the only interesting aspect of Lovers the Red Sky and without them together the entire drama devolves into (1) Chun Gi must restore the royal … Continue reading →

Lovers of the Red Sky Episodes 9-10 Get Back on Track as Everyone Knows About the Demon in Ha Ram But He Just IDGAF and Keeps On Spending Quality Time with Chun Gi

A Koala's Playground Posted on October 7, 2021 by ockoalaOctober 7, 2021
Historical figures in traditional Korean attire.

It’s week 5 of Lovers of the Red Sky and after last week’s relatively dull and plodding two episodes the drama resumed being a delicious slice of sageuk crack. Ha Ram activates his alter ego Demon Mode in the middle of the Palace (oopsie) but Prince Yangmyeong gets knocked out so doesn’t remember but Chun Gi nearly gets strangled to … Continue reading →

Lovers of the Red Sky Episodes 7-8 Resumes with Similar Ratings of 9.3%, 8.9% as the Week Hiatus Slows the Momentum

A Koala's Playground Posted on September 29, 2021 by ockoalaSeptember 29, 2021
Two characters in traditional Korean attire, smiling.

I was super excited on Monday for the resumption of Lovers of the Red Sky, with episode 7 picking up from the end of the painting competition and the arrival of Chun Gi’s mentally damaged dad to cause a ruckus. I don’t know if it’s mostly due to the Chuseok week preemption but the episode felt so slow and took … Continue reading →

SBS Releases Eye-catching Pictures of Lovers of the Red Sky Leads Kim Yoo Jung, Ahn Hyo Seob, and Gong Myung During Chuseok Off Week

Traditional attire in historical setting.

Clearly I’m in withdrawal lol, and excuse my grasping at whatever straws/goodies are out for SBS Mon-Tues sageuk Lovers of the Red Sky (Hong Chun Gi). That the drama has overcome tons of doubts – Ahn Hyo Seob‘s sageuk acting concerns, the top billing brouhaha, and the general “will it work” questions about the fantasy with palace intrigue combo – … Continue reading →

SBS Preempts This Week of Lovers of the Red Sky Episodes 7-8 for Chuseok Festival, Will Air on September 27th

A Koala's Playground Posted on September 19, 2021 by ockoalaSeptember 19, 2021
Woman in traditional attire smiling warmly.

Grah, it’s the worst to be addicting to a K-drama when it airs over a holiday season, be it lunar new year or mid-autumn festival which is called Chuseok in Korea. It’s a big holiday as it is in Chinese-speaking countries, like the Asian version of Thanksgiving. This Tuesday the 20th of September is Chuseok in South Korea so everyone … Continue reading →

Lovers of the Red Sky Continues to be Lyrical Sageuk Drama Crack as Episode 5 Stays Solid at 9.7% Ratings

A Koala's Playground Posted on September 13, 2021 by ockoalaSeptember 13, 2021
Historical characters in traditional attire.

Oh god, how can this drama be soooooo addicting. Like, someone just found a recipe of Koala sageuk nip and bibimbap-ed it into Lovers of the Red Sky (Hong Chun Gi) and I seriously am toast for every scene. Episode 5 was basically a one-scene episode so credits to the drama narrative for making the painting contest so fascinating, beautiful, … Continue reading →

Full Set of Character Posters for SBS Sageuk Red Sky Showcases Each Lead in a Different Genre of Story

A Koala's Playground Posted on August 23, 2021 by ockoalaAugust 23, 2021
Couple wearing traditional attire in nature.

Okay, I totally love the character posters for upcoming sageuk Red Sky (Lovers of the Red Sky or Hong Chun Gi) but probably not for the reason SBS wants me to. I don’t think its any good or visually all that appealing but holy is it great for dissection. It’s like the drama can’t figure put what genre or vibe … Continue reading →

Third Preview for SBS Sageuk Red Sky Introduces the Likely Love Triangle Between Ahn Hyo Seob, Kim Yoo Jung, and Gong Myung

A Koala's Playground Posted on August 20, 2021 by ockoalaAugust 20, 2021
Romantic scene in traditional Korean attire.

Ah, I totally see the interpersonal set up of the core three leads in SBS sageuk Red Sky (Lovers of the Red Sky or Hong Chun Gi) just like in The Moon Embraces the Sun. Male lead Ahn Hyo Seob is the stickler upstanding male lead, Kim Yoo Jung is the charming girl every guy would fall for, and Gong … Continue reading →

SBS Releases Script Reading Stills for Upcoming Sageuk Romance Red Sky

A Koala's Playground Posted on July 7, 2021 by ockoalaJuly 7, 2021
Group photo of actors holding scripts.

It’s been a mixed bag so far this year in 2021 with sageuks but overall it felt like I’m getting that genre satisfied nicely with the ones I’ve watched. It’s also nice that one finishes and another starts right after so I can focus on one at a time and up next is SBS drama Red Sky (Hong Chun Gi). … Continue reading →

Twenty More Actors/Actresses Join the KOFIC Korean Actors 200 List in Second Release

A Koala's Playground Posted on March 23, 2021 by ockoalaMarch 23, 2021
Black and white portrait of a thoughtful man.

The KOFIC assembled Korean Actors 200 list (consisting of both actors and actresses) is already fodder for discussion with fans wondering why their faves may or may not have been included. This is definitely a movie (Chungmuro) driven list so straight up drama stars will likely not make it and many of the included may not be household names but … Continue reading →

A Koala's Playground Posted on December 15, 2020 by ockoalaDecember 15, 2020
Promotional images for the drama "Hong Cheon Gi."

I didn’t know the casting wasn’t “confirmed” confirmed until this week since the whole cast has been filming already. But here goes, alongside leads Kim Yoo Jung and Ahn Hyo Seob in sageuk romance Hong Chun Gi, the drama will have Gong Myung as the other line in the love triangle with Kwak Si Yang playing the antagonist to the … Continue reading →

Gong Myung is the Third Leg of Young Romance Sageuk Hong Chun Gi with Kim Yoo Jung and Ahn Hyo Seob

A Koala's Playground Posted on October 9, 2020 by ockoalaOctober 8, 2020
Two smiling individuals posing for the camera.

The upside is that it’s definitely age appropriate to the source material and to each other. But why do I feel like two legs are weaker than the third and it’s either going to be elevated or dragged down. Upcoming sageuk Hong Chun Gi, the name of the female lead and also the name of the novel by the writer … Continue reading →

Honey Lee and Gong Myung Reunite After Extreme Job for K-movie Killing Romance

A Koala's Playground Posted on April 14, 2020 by ockoalaApril 13, 2020
Two smiling individuals in cozy sweaters.

There are so many starts and stops right now in K-movie land thanks to COVID-19. Some movies had to halt filming, others delayed start, and even more movies were supposed to premiere in February and March and have been delayed. A movie further out in the horizon has my attention thanks to the cast: Honey Lee will be the female … Continue reading →
