Final Batch of Iron Man Stills as the Drama Premieres Wednesday on KBS

A Koala's Playground Posted on September 9, 2014 by ockoalaSeptember 9, 2014

I’m getting so pumped for Iron Man (Blade Man) which premieres tomorrow on KBS. Once in a blue moon does a drama come along this over-the-top in concept. It requires hand-rubbing glee to welcome its arrival rather than indifferent waiting. I still think it looks like a hot mess in the making from the previews and stills but occasionally even … Continue reading →

Iron Man Gets English Title of Blade Man and Releases Long 5-minute Preview

A Koala's Playground Posted on September 6, 2014 by ockoalaSeptember 6, 2014

Are you suited up and ready for K-Iron Man to arrive? The much mocked KBS drama Iron Man is set to premiere next Wednesday and has gotten a new English title of Blade Man just to completely destroy its very reason for naming it Iron Man in Korean in the first place. Why can’t the Korean title be Blade Man … Continue reading →

Knives and More Knives in the Official Drama Posters for Iron Man

A Koala's Playground Posted on September 1, 2014 by ockoalaSeptember 1, 2014

Not gonna lie, I kinda dig these posters of Iron Man…..if you take away with knives on male lead Lee Dong Wook. Taken as a non-supernatural romance melo between Lee Dong Wook and Shin Se Kyung, these official drama posters are actually decent. KBS likes to do saturated colors and expansive backdrops and the one with Lee Dong Wook sitting … Continue reading →

Second Teaser for Iron Man Goes the Comedy and Heartwarming Route

A Koala's Playground Posted on August 31, 2014 by ockoalaAugust 31, 2014

As Iron Man gets closer and closer to arriving on our collective cringing doorsteps, there is a part of me that wishes to be proven wrong. To have my first impression vacated for what turns out to be the surprise K-drama of the century in terms of awesome. I remember joking with other K-drama lovers years ago about the possibility … Continue reading →

First Teaser of Iron Man Shows Lee Dong Wook Climbing a Building Using Body Knives

A Koala's Playground Posted on August 30, 2014 by ockoalaAugust 30, 2014

JAW DROP. I have no words. Really, this cannot be happening. But if I were to give my two cents, I would advise Lee Dong Wook to run for his life and not look back. KBS dropped a teensy weensy teaser today for its upcoming Wed-Thurs drama Iron Man airing in two weeks after Joseon Gunman wraps up. JG needed … Continue reading →

Lee Dong Wook Channels His Rage While Shin Se Kyung Transforms into a Healing Sweetie in Iron Man

A Koala's Playground Posted on August 26, 2014 by ockoalaAugust 25, 2014

I feel like the upcoming K-drama version of Iron Man could be the drama that keeps on giving….in unintentional hilarity that is. I know Lee Dong Wook has plenty of fangirls and I find him quite good looking and easy to watch onscreen as well. But it has to be said that he’s one of the biggest over-actors around, and heck … Continue reading →

KBS Releases First Stills of Iron Man Lee Dong Wook with Leading Lady Shin Se Kyung

A Koala's Playground Posted on August 23, 2014 by ockoalaAugust 22, 2014

Man, I really really hate that KBS decided to name its upcoming drama Iron Man. Setting aside the lifting of the title from a famous Western comic book superhero that has in recent years been revived in popular culture, the blatant and overly obvious naming mechanism is something that is at the core of comic book genesis. He dresses like … Continue reading →

Lee Dong Wook Turns into Iron Man and Romances Shin Se Kyung

A Koala's Playground Posted on August 9, 2014 by ockoalaAugust 8, 2014

Everything about Iron Man gives off the whiff of something wrong cooking. KBS tried desperately to lure Ji Sung to the project after he delivered unexpected success with the melodrama Secret (Secret Love) but alas it was a no go. Then KBS admitted it was in talks with the unearthed overacting relic that is Park Shin Yang and even he … Continue reading →

KBS in Lurch with Iron Man: Lead-in Joseon Gunman Extended 2-episodes and Follow-up Healer Complete Main Cast

A Koala's Playground Posted on August 4, 2014 by ockoalaAugust 4, 2014

There’s a storm brewing in the KBS Wed-Thurs time slot and hopefully this week will iron (har har) things out fully. Joseon Gunman has been leading the ratings but it’s a nominal victory since all three dramas including It’s Okay, It’s Love and Fated to Love You are are so close together and have plenty of buzz. I like it … Continue reading →
