This has so much potential to be awesome or awesomely trainwreck. Man, I love me some rough angry boy Ji Soo but he was so so sooooo bad in Moon Lovers: Scarlet Heart Ryeo which convinced me he should stay far far away from sageuks. But now he’s coming back and playing his 8th brother Kang Ha Neul’s son lololol, … Continue reading →

Kim So Hyun Looking Uber Fresh Modeling Simple White T-shirt Perfect for Summer

A Koala's Playground Posted on July 14, 2020 by ockoalaJuly 13, 2020
Young woman posing in casual white shirt.

The simple white t-shirt is problematic for me, too thin and it’s see through and too thick it looks chunky. That sucks because the white t-shirt and denim shorts look perfectly encapsulates summer chic. Kim So Hyun totally pulls it off in her latest clothing CF modeling a white t-shirt with an orange slice in the middle but randomly the … Continue reading →

Kim Yoo Jung the First Pick of Netizens for Female Lead of Sageuk Drama Hong Chun Gi with Ahn Hyo Seob by the Writer of The Moon Embraces the Sun

A Koala's Playground Posted on June 30, 2020 by ockoalaJune 30, 2020
Young woman smiling in a blue vest.

I always felt that Han Ga In was not right for the female lead role in hit sageuk The Moon Embraces the Sun, the age gap with Kim Soo Hyun, her acting limitations (he was acting circles around her), and that the age of the character really suited a early 20s actress. There’s a chance to cast right for Hong … Continue reading →

Young woman in various poses and outfits.

K-actress Kim So Hyun is definitely in the Spring of her life and it’s great seeing her in a new pictorial for a CF campaign showcasing her wide array of charm. It’s such an odd time in the world and some consistency such as writing my blog, watching my K-dramas, and seeing the same familiar faces working hard in K-ent … Continue reading →

K-actress Kim So Hyun is naturally beautiful and with the advantages of youth can pull off any hairstyle and still look fantastic. Clothes are less unanimous as there are still outfits that no one would look good in, but her choice of attire this week attending the VIP movie premiere for political thriller film The Man Standing Next (Chiefs of … Continue reading →

Kim So Hyun Attends 2019 Melon Awards in Black Gown with Gold Applique Border

Youth remains Kim So Hyun‘s weapon to overcome anything, and good for her in trying different styles. But her black ballgown at the 2019 Melon Awards is a total miss for me. The top is deep v-neck with spaghetti straps and looks the top half of a little black dress. Then the bottom is a full bown with lovely gold … Continue reading →

The Tale of Nokdu Ends Historically Consistent with a Happy Ending for the Adorable Jang Dong Yoon and Kim So Hyun OTP

The last 9 weeks flew by probably because I was so addicted to KBS Mon-Tues sageuk The Tale of Nokdu that I looked forward to each Monday arriving. I’m going to genuinely miss this drama that managed to start off wacky with the cross-dressing hijinks but settle into a serious and heartwarming romance and family issues drama. The politics always … Continue reading →

A Koala's Playground Posted on November 24, 2019 by ockoalaNovember 24, 2019
Historical drama scenes with romance and action.

The little sageuk that could readies itself for a finale on Monday in a balance scale of what was so wonderful and what could have been more. KBS drama The Tale of Nokdu has only one episode left, the final episode 16, airing this Monday due to a schedule disruption that upended the usual odd-even airing pairs. That made last … Continue reading →

Couple in traditional attire, smiling together.

I totally forgot that K-drama land was prepping a drama remake of the hit movie Miss Granny which came out in 2015. Probably due to how long this is taking, nearly 4 years since the movie came out and 3 years since the remake was announced. Initial casting news was that Kim So Hyun had been tapped for the female … Continue reading →
