Korean Acting Stars Shine on the MAMA 2017 Hong Kong Red Carpet

A Koala's Playground Posted on December 1, 2017 by ockoalaDecember 1, 2017
Two smiling celebrities at an event.

Since I don’t follow K-pop the interest in the pan-Asian Mnet Asian Music Awards (MAMA) is solely on the attendee star power of many K-stars. The Hong Kong show last night was a total win for me on the actors and actresses who attended and their fashion choices. EVERYONE LOOKED GREAT! Yes, there was the usual black, white/neutral, and red … Continue reading →

A Koala's Playground Posted on September 16, 2017 by ockoalaSeptember 16, 2017
Four people making heart shapes with hands.

I’m ready to test the temperature this Monday for new SBS Mon-Tues drama Temperature of Love, changing the mood on the network from serious dark subject matter to seemingly light airy romance. Starring Seo Hyun Jin, Yang Se Jong, Kim Jae Wook, and Jo Boa, the leads attended last week’s press conference in a fantastic show of camaraderie, chemistry, and … Continue reading →

Drama Posters and New Preview for SBS Romance Drama Temperature of Love

A Koala's Playground Posted on September 12, 2017 by ockoalaSeptember 12, 2017
Four characters in a romantic drama poster.

The heat isn’t quite rising yet for soon to premiere new SBS romance drama Temperature of Love, arriving next Monday as Falsify wraps up its run this week. The vibe I get is less hot vat of oil bubbling and more oven on pre-heat, with all the right and light touches in setting up a visually appealing romance drama but … Continue reading →

First Teaser Brings the Airy Romance for Upcoming SBS Drama Temperature of Love

A Koala's Playground Posted on August 28, 2017 by ockoalaAugust 28, 2017
Four individuals in a cozy caf setting.

I’m so super duper excited for upcoming SBS Mon-Tues drama Temperature of Love, the first time in a long time for the network to do a straight up modern rom-com in that time slot since Lie to Me. Plus Falsify is so dark and SBS has been alternating dark tense dramas this year with Defendant and Whisper I’m so ready … Continue reading →

Kim Soo Hyun Leads the VIP Attendees at Jang Hyuk and Son Hyun Joo’s New Movie Ordinary People

A Koala's Playground Posted on March 23, 2017 by ockoalaMarch 21, 2017
Male model posing in a green bomber jacket.

The movie Ordinary People is certainly a forgettable cinematic title used more than once before, but at least the cast of the upcoming K-movie isn’t ordinary in the least. Starring Jang Hyuk and Son Hyun Joo, it’s a twisty psychological power thriller that mines the dark reaches of human need, which I can totally see the two male leads bringing … Continue reading →

It can’t always be only good news so it’s with a saddened heart that I share the update that news of three K-ent couples having broken up came out all within the week. First came the drama couple On Joo Wan and Jo Bao, who met on the set of Surplus Princess and dated for almost three years. They were a … Continue reading →

A Koala's Playground Posted on September 6, 2016 by ockoalaSeptember 5, 2016
Four young actors posing for photographs.

Nine years isn’t super long but it feels like forever when one is stuck in the world of intense melodramas. That’s the case with K-actress Su Ae who is making her drama comeback this fall with the KBS Mon-Tues rom-com The Man Living in Our House. She’s been doing dramas consistently but all her works in the last nine years … Continue reading →

Jo Boa Up for MBC Drama Monster and Goes Sleek and Edgy for Elle Korea

A Koala's Playground Posted on February 1, 2016 by ockoalaFebruary 3, 2016
Black and white portrait of a woman.

I quite like that K-actress Jo Boa isn’t all that popular yet, I feel like some IT things peak too early or for the wrong reasons. Jo Boa has been on the radar since Shut Up: Flower Boy Band, and was one of the best things about the silly Surplus Princess. She went dark for Missing Noir M and is … Continue reading →

A Koala's Playground Posted on December 31, 2015 by ockoalaDecember 31, 2015
Award winners on stage at an event.

Just because KBS is the ratings pits all year doesn’t mean it can’t throw a fun awards party and reward the acting talent that has attempted to infuse some excitement and life into the network’s drama. Things were going swimmingly at the 2015 KBS Drama Awards until the biggest award of the night, whereby KBS manage to split the baby … Continue reading →

Couple lying on pillows, playful expression.

Love (or lust, or a combination of both) is in the waters of K-ent and I’m just waiting to see which other star couples get outed this week alone. So far the confirmed Korean celebrity couples since the week started include globetrotting young Hallyu superstar lovebirds Lee Min Ho with Suzy along with actress Park Ha Sun and Ryu Soo Young putting … Continue reading →
