Joo Ji Hoon Leads Fashionably Diverse Contingent of K-stars at Zegna Event in Seoul

A Koala's Playground Posted on September 24, 2018 by ockoalaSeptember 23, 2018
Man in black cardigan and rust tee

I love me some perfectly tailored Ermenegildo Zegna for my man so I’m familiar with their classic suiting and accessories and find myself rather amused at the brand’s casual offerings. It’s time for the men to walk the brand red carpet as the ladies do it more often with plenty of hits and misses. Joo Ji Hoon was the standout … Continue reading →

The height differential between movie costars Kim Young Kwang and Park Bo Young still makes my eyes smile when I see them.

Three men in leather, suit, and historical costume

The Mon-Tues slot is about to get a much needed refresher but sadly it won’t be my favorite battle to the death when three new prime time dramas premiere at the same time.

A Koala's Playground Posted on February 6, 2017 by ockoalaFebruary 7, 2017
Woman in blue outfit smiling at event.

I’m way more fascinated by the fashion, mostly lack thereof, parade at the VIP movie premiere for the thriller movie Fabricated City than I am in the actual movie. Starring Ji Chang Wook and Shim Eun Kyung, the movie is a cross between wrongfully accused of murder Defendant and Healer‘s computer hacking and chase thrills. The trailer looks sleek enough … Continue reading →

Two couples meet in outdoor settings.

Leave it to Su Ae to appear so effortlessly a rom-com female lead when she’s been away from the genre for nearly a decade which has been spent doing dark melo roles. She’s back in fine form in the first stills and teaser for upcoming KBC drama The Man Living in Our House which takes over from Moonlight Drawn by … Continue reading →

A Koala's Playground Posted on September 6, 2016 by ockoalaSeptember 5, 2016
Four young actors posing for photographs.

Nine years isn’t super long but it feels like forever when one is stuck in the world of intense melodramas. That’s the case with K-actress Su Ae who is making her drama comeback this fall with the KBS Mon-Tues rom-com The Man Living in Our House. She’s been doing dramas consistently but all her works in the last nine years … Continue reading →

School-aged Pictures of Popular Hallyu K-actors Show the Before and After

A Koala's Playground Posted on October 4, 2015 by ockoalaOctober 4, 2015
Four young men in formal school portraits.

For years I’ve been seeing these types of pre-star pictures floating around here and there, and finally decided to collect as many as I can into one post. Half of it is for my own viewing lulz and the other half is to share since so many folks like one or more of these K-actors. This collection of school-aged pictures … Continue reading →

Disaster Drama D-Day Releases Intense First Teaser and Character Stills

A Koala's Playground Posted on July 27, 2015 by ockoalaJuly 26, 2015
Nine characters with diverse expressions and attire.

Consider me optimistically impressed with the latest round of substantive peeks at upcoming jTBC disaster drama D-Day. Just the concept alone is worth checking out, leaving the typical K-drama genres behind and embracing a gritty urgent story about medical professionals responding to a major disaster striking Seoul. US shows have done this to death and back but K-dramas rarely tread … Continue reading →

First Drama Stills of Jung So Min and Kim Young Kwang in the Middle of a Seoul D-Day Disaster

A Koala's Playground Posted on July 4, 2015 by ockoalaJuly 4, 2015
Two people looking up in the city.

I was initially not all that interested in upcoming cable network jTBC disaster drama D-Day, it sounded too ambitious for the ability of K-dramas to wrangle and the cast was decent without including a single must watch actor or actress for me. Starring Jung So Min, Kim Young Kwang, Ha Suk Jin, Kim Jung Hwa, and Sungyeol of INFINIITE, the … Continue reading →

Real life good friends Lee Soo Hyuk and Kim Young Kwang have basically the exact same career trajectory. Both are models turned actors and currently reside comfortably in second lead territory in dramas and supporting roles in movies. That’s not a bad place to be, but if they aspire to reach higher then both need to look no further than … Continue reading →
