SBS Shelves Can We Love for I Hear Your Voice with Kim Jae Won and Lee Bo Young

A Koala's Playground Posted on April 19, 2013 by ockoalaApril 19, 2013

So this might be the most hilarious case of crossed wires ever in the casting rumor mill, and you can’t blame me (and many others) for reporting on what turns out to be erroneous news. So I heard that Lee Bo Young was being courted for the drama that was going to follow All About My Romance on SBS Wed-Thurs. … Continue reading →

Koala is Team Chang Hee in the Inexplicably Addicting May Queen

A Koala's Playground Posted on September 25, 2012 by ockoalaSeptember 24, 2012

When I first heard about May Queen, it sounded like a potential Giant. It’s not, it’s stupid beyond belief. It could be stupid and sprawling like East of Eden, but it isn’t either. The whole poor girl destined to reach ship building greatness feels pretty small-scale so far, and the amount of beyond ridiculous machinations of the bad guys to … Continue reading →

May Queen with Kim Jae Won, Han Ji Hye and Jae Hee Release Teaser and Stills

A Koala's Playground Posted on August 6, 2012 by ockoalaAugust 6, 2012

It’s been years since a weekend K-drama hooked me, and maybe May Queen will buck that trend. It’s not that I don’t like family dramas with a good dose of makjang, I’m just always running around on weekends and new episodes sorta slip through the cracks until I dang forget about it. Going up against the piano-playing makjang Five Fingers … Continue reading →

May Queen Releases First Look at Kim Yoo Jung and the Stellar Child Cast

A Koala's Playground Posted on July 8, 2012 by ockoalaJuly 8, 2012

For the first time ever, I’m more interested in a K-drama for its child cast than adult one. Which is a good thing, because the upcoming 32-episode MBC weekend drama May Queen appears to have a expansive child cast that will likely take up multiple episodes worth of setting the stage for the adult story. I’ve been a fan of Kim … Continue reading →

MBC to Delay Me Too Flower Premiere as Kim Jae Won Gets Surgery

A Koala's Playground Posted on October 10, 2011 by ockoalaOctober 10, 2011

MBC‘s upcoming drama Me, Too Flower! isn’t just accident-prone, the reaction to said accident is the oddest I’ve ever encountered. Leading man Kim Jae Won was in an on set motorcycle accident on the first day of filming (which already screams bad omen to me), which has been diagnosed as requiring surgery and about a month’s rest. Initially the production … Continue reading →

Kim Jae Won Leaves Upcoming K-drama Me Too, Flower! After Getting Injured Filming

A Koala's Playground Posted on October 6, 2011 by ockoalaOctober 6, 2011

Oh no, not again. Breaking news from K-drama land, and it’s not a good one. A few days ago news broke that Kim Jae Won was in a motorcycle accident on the first day of shooting Me too, Flower! Initially the doctor said he needed a few days rest for the shoulder injury, but today it’s been confirmed that it’s … Continue reading →

2011 Mid-Year Roll Call: Who is In and Out of the Military

A Koala's Playground Posted on July 12, 2011 by ockoalaJuly 12, 2011

When I was watching episode 1 of Spy Myung Wol today, I noticed TPTB (The Powers That Be) not only made recently released from the military Eric do the obligatory shirtless shower scene, it also made him do an even more gratuitous swimming scene. All in the same episode. Considering second male lead Lee Jin Wook is also freshly six-packed … Continue reading →

MBC Weekend Drama Can You Hear My Heart Releases Second Trailer

A Koala's Playground Posted on March 28, 2011 by ockoalaOctober 20, 2012

Flames of Desire finished its fifty-episode run today (I still need to marathon the second half of the drama once I get myself in the mood for Shakespearen makjang awesomeness), and MBC released a second trailer for the upcoming Can You Hear My Heart. I don’t know why this drama inexplicably intrigues me, there is just something about the tone … Continue reading →

MBC’s Weekend Drama Can You Hear My Heart Gears Up for its Early April Premiere

A Koala's Playground Posted on March 22, 2011 by ockoalaOctober 20, 2012

Best Subversive Casting Ever! I just realized that the upcoming MBC weekend drama Can You Hear My Heart has cast veteran Jung Bo Seok as the mentally disabled father of the lead actress character played Hwang Jung Eum. If anyone has watched all 60-episodes of Giant (truly an epic masterpiece), then you’ll likely ROFL along with me, because Jung Bo … Continue reading →

Upcoming MBC Drama Can You Hear My Heart Casts Its Leads Hwang Jung Eum, Kim Jae Won, and Nam Goong Min

A Koala's Playground Posted on February 10, 2011 by ockoalaOctober 20, 2012

MBC’s current weekend drama Flames of Desire is burning up the screens with its epic pathos, but its successor looks to do an about-turn and go the cheerful, upbeat route. Earlier in January, rising actress Hwang Jung Eum was cast as the lead of Can You Hear My Heart, and this week her leading man was selected – fresh out of the … Continue reading →
