First Slapsticky Teaser for One More Happy Ending Plays Up Rom-com Appeal

A Koala's Playground Posted on January 8, 2016 by ockoalaJanuary 8, 2016
Cast of a romantic comedy series.

It’s a good week to feel optimistic about upcoming K-dramas when there are interesting new goodies, case in point being the first teaser for upcoming MBC drama One More Happy Ending. I find myself loving the drama title and premise, it’s such a positive yet realistic belief, that romance isn’t always a one-shot happy ending take and even those who … Continue reading →

MBC Drama One More Happy Ending with Jung Kyung Ho and Jang Nara Hold Script Reading

A Koala's Playground Posted on December 9, 2015 by ockoalaDecember 8, 2015
Group of people in a meeting or discussion.

When I’m busy, and lately I’ve been busier then ever, it feels like currently airing dramas are passing me by and new dramas are arriving way before I’m ready. Script reading took place last week for upcoming MBC Wed-Thurs drama One More Happy Ending, taking over towards the end of January 2016 for Sweet Savage Family. Starring Jang Nara, Jung … Continue reading →

Jung Kyung Ho and Jang Nara Pair Up for MBC Wed-Thurs Drama One More Happy Ending

A Koala's Playground Posted on November 17, 2015 by ockoalaNovember 16, 2015
Two smiling individuals at a public event.

I still remember a long stretch of years when Jang Nara was never seen in K-dramas, but with last year’s Fated to Love You, it’s been a nonstop bullet train of one drama after another. Last year she also did Mr. Back, and this year she was in I Remember You, and in early 2016 she will be in upcoming … Continue reading →

Hello Monster Adds Lee Chun Hee, Park Bo Geum, D.O., and Choi Won Young

There are worst places to be in the casting process than where upcoming KBS drama Hello Monster is right now. The drama is in a weird spot of having filled out the cast except for the leading man role. Luckily the drama still has plenty of time to find a strapping fellow to play the criminal profiler expert since Hello … Continue reading →

KBS Courts Jang Nara as Lee Jin Wook’s Leading Lady in Hello Monster

Two people at a red carpet event.

Whenever I see a picture of smiling Jang Nara it also brings a smile to my face. She may not be an actress I love but she’s always watchable in all her performances. Call it a combination of effortless charm with baby-faced looks in a tasty match. She did two back-to-back MBC dramas last year with Fated to Love You … Continue reading →

2014 MBC Year End Drama Awards

A Koala's Playground Posted on December 30, 2014 by ockoalaDecember 30, 2014

The 2014 MBC Drama Awards mostly went off without a hitch, other than the Jaejoong last minute inexplicable no-show hiccup and all the winners being as predicted to make the evening feel rather dull. The fashion parade was more interesting for me what with the sequins and lace everywhere and the stark contrast between white/gold versus black. The Daesang went … Continue reading →

A Koala's Playground Posted on November 5, 2014 by ockoalaNovember 5, 2014

The year is less than two months from ending and there is finally a prime time K-drama that premiered in 2014 with ratings numbers that aren’t either an embarrassment or resigned mediocrity. MBC‘s rich grandpa age-reversing Wed-Thurs drama Mr. Back (Mr. Baek) just became the highest first episode prime time drama premiere of the year. Episode 1 notched a 14.2% … Continue reading →

Mr. Back Releases Four Fun Official Drama Posters

A Koala's Playground Posted on November 1, 2014 by ockoalaNovember 1, 2014

MBC has been regularly the ratings loser in the Wed-Thurs prime time slot for quite some time now until the just finished My Spring Days led a very very weak competition line up. That’s not an indication of quality since some of the dramas have been quite good actually. I’m really looking forward to the upcoming Mr. Back (Mr. Baek) … Continue reading →
