Haha, not all scandals are created equal and this one is on the low end of being a serious impact on K-actor Kim Kyung Nam‘s rising career. With that said, I HATE inconsiderate and loud neighbors with a passion so dude, grow some thoughtfulness and make this a life changing attitude going forward. An post today by someone claiming to … Continue reading →

A Koala's Playground Posted on July 14, 2021 by ockoalaJuly 14, 2021
Two men in formal clothing at events.

I would call this an even trade and I’m just glad the casting got switched up early and finalized quickly. Upcoming jTBC drama Just One Person is replacing one person for another person this week. Male lead Park Sung Hoon, who signed up for this drama three months ago after the Joseon Exorcist cancellation fiasco, has stepped down reportedly due … Continue reading →

Okay, I can totally see the close knit cast of The King; Eternal Monarch keeping tabs on cutie pie Woo Do Hwan‘s schedule in the military and grabbing him when he’s on leave to hang out. Lee Min Ho shared two pictures this weekend of himself at a dinner party with his The King cast mates including picture taker Kim … Continue reading →

Weekend K-dramas remain a safe and happy place for actors and actresses, devoid of fanwars and the viewers tend to connect with 50-episode lengths like a family. The number of weekend dramas being produced has also gone down and hopefully that means more quality fare. KBS has cast its 2021 spring weekend K-drama called Other Happy People (Happy Other Family) … Continue reading →

Talk about a new boyband in the making!

Past and Present is Rewritten in Final Episode 16 of The King: Eternal Monarch Ending with 5.8%, 8.1% Ratings

A Koala's Playground Posted on June 12, 2020 by ockoalaJune 13, 2020
Dramatic scene with four characters interacting.

It’s weird how time tempers disappointment. I’ll likely remember The King: Eternal Monarch fondly now that it’s over, the earlier episodes were just so inexplicably terrible and made for drastic expectation rewritting but as the episodes went on I settled into a nice rhythm with it. Each week I hoped it would make better sense and it never did but … Continue reading →

If I were still activity recapping I probably would not have the energy to continue on with The King: Eternal Monarch. Needing to describe every scene with a prelude and my thoughts after would only amplify all the problems and I would be hard pressed to muster the commitment to continue. Being able to watch and casually comment has made … Continue reading →

The Cast of The King: Eternal Monarch are Chummy and Chill in Netflix Promotional Stills

A Koala's Playground Posted on May 7, 2020 by ockoalaMay 7, 2020
Group of five people in stylish outfits.

I came across this week Netflix promotional stills featuring the cast of K-drama The King: Eternal Monarch. The drama is streaming an hour after it airs on SBS every Fri-Sat so that’s fast consumption for online and international viewers. I still think the cast of Lee Min Ho, Kim Go Eun, Woo Do Hwan, Jung Eun Chae, and Kim Kyung … Continue reading →

Second Episode of The King: Eternal Monarch Remains Consistent in Ratings of 8.4% and 11.6%

Characters interacting in a dramatic office setting.

It’s episode 2 time for SBS Fri-Sat night drama The King: Eternal Monarch, and there are ever only three ways a second episode could go: up, same, or down. I thought The King would increase in ratings but it stayed basically the same with second episode ratings of 8.4% and 11.6% in half episode increments. I found the world building … Continue reading →

It’s finally here woo hoo! Finally the wait is over and something interesting to watch is only a day away to look forward to.

I find Kim Kyung Nam a fantastic actor who always delivers and that seems to be the widespread feedback from other drama viewers. He’s just charismatic and his presence in upcoming SBS K-drama The King: Eternal Monarch really ups the ante. His first character stills are out and shows his police officer character tackling a suspect and he’s seems the … Continue reading →
