Ji Hyun Woo and Kim So Eun Both Disdain Romance in First Teasers for K-drama Love is Annoying, But I Hate Being Lonely

A Koala's Playground Posted on July 15, 2020 by ockoalaJuly 15, 2020

I think good things only come with hard work, and that includes romance/life partnership/marriage. It’s not supposed to be easy and that shouldn’t be reason enough to eschew it, especially if the fall back option is being lonely potentially for life. That point of view will be explored in the upcoming MBC Every1 drama Love is Annoying, But I Hate … Continue reading →

Boy does the title of this drama hit on every partnering nerve. I’m sure there are true diehard romantics out there but the thought that Love is Annoying But I Hate Being Lonely driving people to pair up is probably a vast majority. MBC every1 is premiering this August 11th an 1-episode a week drama with Ji Hyun Woo and … Continue reading →

2016 Year End Awards Roundup From Big Three Networks Capped Off Drama Year

A Koala's Playground Posted on January 3, 2017 by ockoalaJanuary 3, 2017
Four celebrities at an awards event.

The 2016 year end K-drama awards for the big three networks came and went last weekend, smack dab in the middle of me heading off for my trans-pacific flight, taking said long flight, traveling back home from long flight, and then being massively jetlagged from said flight. All in all I lost 36 hours and also the ability to collect … Continue reading →

Scholar Who Walks the Night Slays with Romance and Thrills in Awesome Long Preview

A Koala's Playground Posted on July 7, 2015 by ockoalaJuly 7, 2015
Two stylish individuals posing together confidently.

I’m going to preemptively thank Scholar Who Walks the Night for releasing the most riveting long K-drama preview this year, for me at least but really that’s all I personally care about since I’m the one looking for some drama inspiration. I can’t proffer assurances that it’ll be great but the extended look had me crying (during the scene with … Continue reading →

Lee Jun Ki and Kim So Eun Bring the Intense Stares in New Stills for Scholar Who Walks the Night

The visual feast of promos for Scholar Who Walks the Night fairly guarantees eye candy onscreen, and maybe that will be only positive thing about it. We’ll find out next Wed (who’s excited, I’m soooo excited!) but the chance of a hot mess doesn’t deter me from eagerly gobbling up every new tidbit from the production. Case in point – … Continue reading →

Official Drama Posters for Scholar Who Walks the Night Dazzles with Dramatic Flair

A Koala's Playground Posted on July 2, 2015 by ockoalaJuly 1, 2015
Romantic scene from a historical drama series.

Feel free to have your own opinions regarding upcoming vampire sageuk Scholar Who Walks the Night as its certainly been one of the most eventful K-drama productions this year. I find the not too serious and a tad over-the-top style charmingly cheesy rather than annoyingly florid. It’s got just enough dramatic flair in all the teaser materials befitting the whole vampire … Continue reading →

Colorful Character Stills and Second Rollicking Teaser for Scholar Who Walks the Night

July is finally here and that means Scholar Who Walks the Night is just around the corner. The drama arrives next Wed on MBC and the network continues to pull out all the punches when it comes to promo material. This is one drama that can’t blame failure on a lack of promotion. Today the drama dropped a second teaser … Continue reading →

Kim So Eun Transforms Beautifully into a Joseon Noble Lady for Scholar Who Walks the Night

It’s been a busy month for the production of Scholar Who Walks the Night, going from full speed filming to losing both leads one after another to temporary injury. Things are back on track and the production has been steadily releasing drama stills to stir up interest. My interest is piqued for sure by the better than expected stills but … Continue reading →

First Action-packed Teaser for Scholar Who Walks the Night

A Koala's Playground Posted on June 24, 2015 by ockoalaJune 24, 2015
Historical characters in dramatic, moody settings.

The first teaser is out for upcoming fantasy vampire sageuk Scholar Who Walks the Night, and the verdict remains unclear as it straddles the line between potential hot mess and potential awesome drama crack. Thirty seconds isn’t enough for a first impression either way, but is enough to keep me firmly in the anticipation track. The drama started filming quite … Continue reading →

The Casts of Scholar Who Walks the Night and High Society Get Busy Script Reading

A Koala's Playground Posted on May 17, 2015 by ockoalaMay 17, 2015
Group script reading session with actors and crew.

The work week is off to a nice start in drama land with the release of script reading stills from two upcoming dramas that I’m looking forward to. Even better is that these two dramas aren’t competing against each other in the same time slot so I can enjoy both without feeling like I’m picking between favorites. MBC is prepping … Continue reading →

Scholar Who Walks the Night Releases Character Descriptions and Readies to Start Filming

A Koala's Playground Posted on May 9, 2015 by ockoalaMay 9, 2015
Three people posing for a photo.

With MBC‘s next Wed-Thurs drama Warm and Cozy premiering next week, the network must be relieved that the follow up drama Scholar Who Walks the Night finally locked down the main cast last month. I actually found the casting discussion changes surrounding Night Scholar even more exhausting than befell Kill Me Heal Me, now only time will show whether the end … Continue reading →

And it’s a wrap! At least the casting portion is for upcoming vampire fantasy sageuk drama Scholar Who Walks the Night. I think this drama officially trumps the casting carousel of Kill Me Heal Me, we’ll have to wait until July to see if Scholar turns out as good as KMHM made out with its final cast. Night Scholar held a script … Continue reading →

Just when I felt like sitting Scholar Who Walks the Night down and demanding that the drama get its act together, it goes and gets it act together. FINALLY. The production company just released a statement that Kim So Eun is confirmed as the female lead of Scholar, playing the cross-dressing fallen noblewoman leading lady who falls in love with the … Continue reading →
