Woman making a heart gesture, smiling widely.

Disney+ K-drama Moving a Major Hit with Chinese Speaking Audiences as Douban Ratings Rise to Incredibly High 8.8

A Koala's Playground Posted on September 5, 2023 by ockoalaSeptember 6, 2023
Two people connected in a surreal setting.

The hype and love for K-drama Moving continues through 13 episodes with still more runway with a 20-episode scheduled run on Disney+. I loved the high school kids section but the parents is even more heart wrenching so it’s just a drama that keeps getting better and better. K-netizens love it but even C-netizens feel the same way and that … Continue reading →

Disney+ Capitalizing on Hit K-drama Moving with Continuous Release of New Stills and Promo Materials

A Koala's Playground Posted on August 29, 2023 by ockoalaAugust 29, 2023
Two people connected in a surreal setting.

I can’t get over the irony of Disney+ finally having a massive hit with Moving in everything (casting, directing, writing) when there feels like a downtown in K-drama trends overall. This week there are new really charismatic and strong visual stills of the three older parent gen leads Jo In Sung, Ryu Seung Ryong, and Han Hyo Joo. I’m finally … Continue reading →

Buzzy Superpower Family Story Moving Becomes Highest Watched K-drama on Disney+

A Koala's Playground Posted on August 25, 2023 by ockoalaAugust 25, 2023

It’s clear now that Moving is the biggest K-drama for Disney+ and getting confirmation that it has the highest viewership of any K-drama on the platform is just perfunctory. If this drama aired on Netflix it would be HUGE based on how much people are talking about it, from the story to the acting to the execution and both the … Continue reading →

Jo In Sung and Han Hyo Joo Continue to Get More Buzz as the Parent Generation Storyline Increases in Disney+ Drama Moving

A Koala's Playground Posted on August 16, 2023 by ockoalaAugust 16, 2023
Couple gazing at cherry blossoms at night.

I’ve heard the Disney+ K-drama Moving described as more similar to a US show with the ensemble cast, time spanning story, superpowers, conspiracy, and without the usual two main leads set up in K-dramas that the story centers around. That makes sense since it’s a sprawling cast and so great to have big names take on a good role even … Continue reading →

Disney+ Superhero K-drama Moving Appears to be Doing Well with Netizen Buzz and Topping Good Data Drama List

A Koala's Playground Posted on August 15, 2023 by ockoalaAugust 15, 2023
Two people connected in a surreal setting.

So K-drama Moving may just be Disney+‘s biggest hit to date but with the news that the platform will stop investing in original K-dramas may be too little too late. Since the premiere last week I’ve seen more online chatter for this drama than expected and then to hear that it’s topped the Good Data drama buzz list this week … Continue reading →

Jo In Sung and Han Hyo Finally Work Together in Disney+ Drama Moving and Pal Around in Bazaar Korea Pictorial

A Koala's Playground Posted on August 12, 2023 by ockoalaAugust 11, 2023
Group of four people posing together.

It’s sad that Disney+ hasn’t made any headway in South Korea K-drama land despite having a built in brand name with a portfolio of popular Hollywood movies and TV shows to surround its investment into exclusive K-dramas. I’ve heard some have been good but nothing has made a splash in greater buzz, perhaps Snowdrop was as close as it got. … Continue reading →

A Koala's Playground Posted on July 28, 2023 by ockoalaJuly 28, 2023
Four women in stylish dresses posing together.

The good news is that none of the men look like Chanel rich grannys lol, especially poor Park Seo Joon who always tries his hardest with any Chanel outfit but can’t make lemonade out of lemons. But for this week’s Chanel event in Seoul he’s in a nice chic suit and so are the other guys including Park Hyung Sik … Continue reading →

Han Hyo Joo Pays Additional Taxes After Standard Audit Reveals Underpayment

A Koala's Playground Posted on June 13, 2023 by ockoalaJune 12, 2023
Woman waving with a friendly smile.

K-actress Han Hyo Joo is lucky she doesn’t work in Mainland China because she would totally get blacklisted by the government for this, tax evasion/underpayment is such a sticking point over there. The actress’s agency released a statement today that the actress paid an additional $55,000 USD in taxes after a tax audit revealed an underpayment. Her agency said this … Continue reading →

Some agencies wax and wane in strength but Lee Byung Hun‘s own agency BH Entertainment since it’s launch has been a powerhouse. He’s gotten top actors and actresses and kept them, many of the stars remain loyal and for good reason. Despite having stars who ostensibly ought to be competing with one another for the same type of roles, the … Continue reading →

There was the biggest star walk on Friday night at the 2023 Baeksang Awards but the next day a large contingent also paraded through for the Louis Vuitton fashion show in Seoul. To say it was underwhelming is an understatement, outfits range from unmemorable and inoffensive to wildly unappealing. But you can tell the clothes are expensive, good fabrics and … Continue reading →
