A Koala's Playground Posted on March 21, 2020 by ockoalaMarch 21, 2020
Collage of emotional restaurant scenes and interactions.

There’s no denying it now, K-actor Park Seo Joon is officially an A-lister and totally deserving of it. His headlining jTBC drama Itaewon Class finished this Saturday with a ratings high 16.548% which is a series high though not a network high as Sky Castle retains both the jTBC crown and the cable networks crown.

Itaewon Class Hits 14.760% in Episode 10 and Holds Mid-airing Press Conference to Showcase Main Cast

A Koala's Playground Posted on March 1, 2020 by ockoalaMarch 2, 2020
Two people in separate indoor settings.

I haven’t seen the mid-premiere press conference these days, years really, as drama ratings are mostly so level or low there’s no point in trotting out the leads for a meet-and-greet with the press if there is no way to gain more ratings for the second half. jTBC phenom Itaewon Class definitely breaks lots of records and molds so makes … Continue reading →

Man in tuxedo smiling on red carpet.

I found the nominees released last week for the 2019 Korean Drama Awards already super meh and now the winners mostly meh as well. The only worthwhile wins went to veteran leading man Choi Soo Jong for SBS hit weekend drama My One and Only taking home the Daesang Award and to ratings smashing cable drama Sky Castle in winning … Continue reading →
