A Koala's Playground Posted on June 10, 2022 by ockoalaJune 10, 2022
Woman in a veil with dramatic expression.

One of the lesser profile Netflix K-dramas scheduled for 2022 is actually close to premiere but may be overshadowed by the June release of the K-adaptation of Money Game. But it could also benefit from another surge in K-drama popularity if that drama is a success so it’ll be interesting to see the reception for Remarriage and Desires (Korean title … Continue reading →

The MBC Fri-Sat night fantasy grim reapers suicide prevention squad drama Tomorrow is getting headlines for all the wrong reasons, and the most fascinating thing is that this drama should work but isn’t working at all to such a noticeable degree it’s making pundit ponder what went wrong. The drama started off with a very promising 7.6% ratings but then … Continue reading →

This is like taking a nap while it’s sunny out and waking up to thunder and lightning a mere hour later. MBC Fri-Thurs drama Tomorrow, based on the same name webtoon about grim reapers rescuing suicidal people, premiered at a really promising 7.6% ratings in episode 1 but since then has fallen and then fallen some more.

Four stylized individuals in different settings.

Well, Tomorrow is officially here today and the reception is warm and positive for a drama dealing with death and grim reapers. It’s MBC‘s highest premiere rating for a Fri-Sat night drama bringing in 7.6% AGB nationwide.

Kim Hee Sun is Artfully Wrecked in the Joseon Era in New Stills from Fantasy Drama Tomorrow

A Koala's Playground Posted on March 29, 2022 by ockoalaMarch 30, 2022
Four characters in stylish suits pose dramatically.

The next evolution of K-actress Kim Hee Sun has been ongoing for the last decade and I feel like her next drama Tomorrow will combine various best elements. She’s fierce in Angry Mom, intellectual and single-minded in Alice, and together she’s all of the above as a grim reaper who likely became one through past life suffering. We’re seeing the … Continue reading →

Kim Hee Sun Runs the Grim Reaper Boy Band in New Posters for MBC Fantasy Thriller Tomorrow

Four characters in stylish suits pose dramatically.

I think K-actress Kim Hee Sun‘s career pivot from gorgeous fresh faced damsel to kick ass take no prisoners veteran happened around the time of Angry Mom. Its when I sat up and took notice of her, but I can see some fans arguing it was three years earlier than that with Faith setting the set. In those ten years … Continue reading →

Looking Forward to Tomorrow as MBC Releases New Striking Character Posters and Action Packed Teaser

A Koala's Playground Posted on March 17, 2022 by ockoalaMarch 17, 2022
Four characters from the drama "Tomorrow."

MBC hasn’t turned it’s underwhelming K-drama streak around last year with all hopes pinned on The Veil (Black Sun), but sometimes its the less high profile dramas that have a better chance of a possible surprise hit. I’m super excited for upcoming fantasy drama Tomorrow adapted from the same name webtoon about a group of angels of death trying to … Continue reading →

Portrait of a person with pink hair.

I know K-actress Kim Hee Sun was already considered TOP of the beauties in her debut decade of the 1990’s but I was never that entranced by her among her same gen leading ladies. My like for her was really the last decade after she got married, had a child, and returned to the small screen with some really good … Continue reading →

Four characters standing dramatically in suits.

It’s not easy for a K-drama promo circuit to start off with as positive a bang as MBC is doing for its upcoming fantasy drama Tomorrow but I’m just too happy bemoan why this can’t happen more frequently. The poster has the four leads Kim Hee Sun, Ro Woon, Lee Soo Hyuk, and Yoon Ji On perched at the edge … Continue reading →

K-ent Discusses Who is the Next Top Classic Korean Actress of the Decade After Kim Tae Hee in 00’s, Kim Hee Sun in 90’s, and Hwang Shin Hye in 80’s

I think most long time drama watchers know that K-actress Kim Tae Hee has been the unmoving consensus among K-ent and K-netizens for her Top Beauty. This week there is an article discussing the successor to the Top Beauty Per Decade and the feeling that there is no consensus decision. In the 1980’s the pick was Hwang Shin Hye, and … Continue reading →

A dark or uncomfortable topic often makes for a meaningful watch if it delivers a compelling story around the subject matter. Upcoming MBC Fri-Sat drama Tomorrow is adapted from the same name webtoon and deals with the members of a crisis management team tasked with saving suicidal people. The suicide rate in South Korea is extraordinarily high for a first … Continue reading →

A Koala's Playground Posted on April 6, 2021 by ockoalaApril 6, 2021

Another random out of nowhere K-drama casting is here and I’m hopeful it makes more sense if I read the source material and this was what the story required. Kim Hee Sun and Ro Woon are in talks as the leads of K-drama Tomorrow based on the same name webtoon. The drama is about a young man with no hope … Continue reading →

SBS Drama Alice Shuffles Off This Mortal Coil as Episode 16 Ends with Zero Narrative Logic or Emotional Resonance

A Koala's Playground Posted on October 25, 2020 by ockoalaOctober 24, 2020
Two people looking at each other on street.

Yeah, I freaking hate SBS drama Alice and definitely regret spending 16 episodes with it. The upside is learning to love male lead Joo Won, re-energizing my love for Kwak Si Yang, and meeting fresh face Lee Da In as a rising actress I was to see more of. Kim Hee Sun was passable but ended up saddled with annoying … Continue reading →
