The waning days of summer is also the kickoff to the biggest fashion season of the year in fall. The colors and fabrics transition from the playful and light to the experimental and substantial, and this year Italian design house Bottega Veneta is showcasing a lot of blacks and whites judging from the main color palate of the K-stars out … Continue reading →

This Friday May 26th was the wedding of Korean stars Joo Sang Wook and Cha Ye Ryun, capping off a love saturated year for the couple after starring in weekend drama Glamorous Temptation last year in 2016.

jTBC Drama Fantastic with Joo Sang Wook and Kim Hyun Joo Drops Exquisite Posters and Funny New Teaser

A Koala's Playground Posted on August 29, 2016 by ockoalaAugust 28, 2016

There’s plenty that is fantastic about upcoming jTBC drama Fantastic, starting off with the beautifully designed and rendered set of drama posters. It’s rare that I love the entire poster collection, usually one or two at most stand out, but here the OTP romance one is warm and loving in a way that already sells the central romance. The way … Continue reading →

Hoo boy, this is going to be one complicated watch for me with upcoming jTBC drama Fantastic. In paying homage to it’s title, the previews indeed look absolutely fantastic, with great music and visuals and tons of charm. But then the looming threat of the female lead starting off with a terminal illness diagnosis can’t be overlooked, and feels so … Continue reading →

Man exercising in gym, looking at phone.

I love the first character stills of male lead Joo Sang Wook in upcoming jTBC drama Fantastic, right now if I elect to check out the drama it’s all on account of him. Joo Sang Wook is going back to his unexpected comedic roots, playing a self-absorbed top Korean actor who sucks at acting but doesn’t know it, lol. The … Continue reading →

Four people holding scripts, smiling together.

Kim Tae  I so want to give this upcoming jTBC drama the benefit of the doubt that it’ll live up to it’s name and actually be Fantastic, because it certainly has a fantastic main cast in Kim Hyun Joo, Joo Sang Wook, Kim Tae Hoon, and Ji Soo. But it’s hard to remain optimistic when the glaring word in the … Continue reading →

Nam Joo Hyuk and Kim Sae Ron Bring the Romantic Intensity for the Teen Portion of Glamorous Temptation

A Koala's Playground Posted on September 27, 2015 by ockoalaSeptember 26, 2015
Young couple embracing by a serene lake.

I do like Joo Sang Wook a lot, but right now I’m wishing that upcoming MBC Mon-Tues drama Glamorous Temptation was solely about the teens played by Kim Sae Ron and Nam Joo Hyuk. Part of it is being so indifferent to leading lady Choi Kang Hee, but mostly it’s due to my past viewing experiences which have skewed towards … Continue reading →

Glamorous Temptation Holds Script Reading and Starts Filming Childhood Portion with Kim Sae Ron and Nam Joo Hyuk

Actors engaged in a script reading session.

There’s nothing wrong with deciding to watch a drama for any personal reason, however big, small, or totally nonsensical. In the case upcoming MBC 50-episode weekend drama Glamorous Temptation, my decision to watch for the first ten episodes featuring the teen portion for Kim Sae Ron seems like a perfectly legit and safe choice. Usually dramas start off better than … Continue reading →

There’s casting movement coupled with a major reversal for upcoming MBC Mon-Tues drama Glamorous Temptation. Earlier this week saw the casting of the teen leads Kim Sae Ron and Nam Joo Hyuk, roles that are less the typical child portion length but will be holding down the fort in the first 10 episodes of what is scheduled to be a … Continue reading →
