Checking in with Cutie Lee Seung Gi Three Months into Military Service

A Koala's Playground Posted on May 2, 2016 by ockoalaMay 1, 2016
Soldier saluting with medal around neck.

K-ent puppy Lee Seung Gi hasn’t been enlisted for all that long, three months to be exact as he shipped off to the army on February 1st, 2016, but this is one service that seems to be crawling by. Most of my faves go and come back in the blink of an eye, from Lee Jun Ki to Yoo Seung … Continue reading →

Lee Seung Gi Happy and Settled into Army Life in First Snap Since Enlistment

A Koala's Playground Posted on February 12, 2016 by ockoalaFebruary 11, 2016

I don’t think it’ll be all that hard to weather the period of 22 months with Lee Seung Gi off in the Korean army when the first snap of him shows how well he’s adjusting to life in uniform. Clearly serving military service is no easy task for any of the Korean enlisted men even if it’s a a mandatory … Continue reading →

Lee Seung Gi Enlists for the Military with a Buzz Cut and a Smile

A Koala's Playground Posted on February 1, 2016 by ockoalaFebruary 1, 2016

I’ve never found Lee Seung Gi conventionally handsome, even if I’m not applying the ridiculously high standards of K-ent when it comes to their stable of flower boy entertainers. But what makes him so attractive to me is his megawatt smile and onscreen charisma whether in dramas or variety, he just has that It Factor and a fun personality to … Continue reading →

A Koala's Playground Posted on January 20, 2016 by ockoalaJanuary 21, 2016

Major heartbreak alert! K-actor/singer/variety star Lee Seung Gi has just confirmed that he’s enlisting for his mandatory military service next month on February 1st. That’s not next month baby boy, that’s 10 days from now! Way to not give noona much notice to gird myself for the pain to come, which involves carefully saving all the Seung Gi dramas and … Continue reading →

Lee Seung Gi Celebrates January Birthday as the Late 86 and 87 Birthday Boys Get Closer to Military Service

A Koala's Playground Posted on January 12, 2016 by ockoalaJanuary 12, 2016

January 13th is my boy Lee Seung Gi‘s birthday, which makes the first birthday of a major Korean star in this new year 2016, and with it comes the reminder that it’s starting to go down to the wire for the end of the year 86ers and the huge batch of 87ers. Yoo Ah In, born in October of 86, … Continue reading →

Star-studded VIP Premiere Red Carpet Lights Up Suzy’s New Movie The Sound of a Flower

A Koala's Playground Posted on November 24, 2015 by ockoalaNovember 24, 2015
Group of four smiling celebrities at event.

Now this is what I call star power, or more aptly Suzy star power. At the VIP premiere of upcoming sageuk movie The Sound of a Flower (Dorihwaga) starring Suzy, Ryu Seung Ryong, and Kim Nam Gil, the impressive line up of Hallyu stars in attendance eclipsed the movie itself thanks to Suzy bringing all the boys (and girls) to … Continue reading →

Lee Seung Gi Teases Upcoming GQ Korea Pictorial with Two Cute Stills From the Shoot

A Koala's Playground Posted on November 10, 2015 by ockoalaNovember 9, 2015

I haven’t see much of Lee Seung Gi in the media recently, likely because he’s filming the upcoming sageuk movie Marital Harmony with Shim Eun Kyung. If the story and directing is good then the movie is a likely hit since it has all the hallmarks to win the audience interest with popular leads and a cross-class border period romance. … Continue reading →

K-ent Discusses the Eight Hallyu Stars Who Still Deliver Solid Drama Ratings in Recent Years

A Koala's Playground Posted on October 4, 2015 by ockoalaOctober 3, 2015
Four women posing at various events.

I feel like there are a handful of Korean drama actors and actresses who maintain success in the industry despite the declining ratings across the board, and the group is definitely larger than the eight being discussed here. K-news portal Osen recently published an article discussing the current four actors and four actresses who remain a lock in delivering ratings. … Continue reading →

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

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 →

Shim Eun Kyung Gets K-movie Male Leads Harem of Lee Seung Gi, Kang Min Hyuk, Yeon Woo Jin, and More

I wasn’t terribly interested in last month’s film casting news that Lee Seung Gi and Shim Eun Kyung were going to headline a movie together, but the latest additions to the casting have me sitting up and 100% invested. Filming has started for upcoming sageuk romance Marital Harmony (Compatibility) and the synopsis is basically Shim Eun Kyung in a historical reverse … Continue reading →

Hyun Bin and Kim Soo Hyun Leads the List of Highest Paid K-actor Drama Salaries

A Koala's Playground Posted on September 4, 2015 by ockoalaSeptember 3, 2015
2015 earnings of South Korean male actors.

It was interesting to get a glimpse at the drama salaries of the top Korean actresses, and now it’s time to see how their male counterparts are faring. There is total gender income at the very top as Lee Young Ae and Jeon Ji Hyun both earn 100 million won per drama episode, and the same is true for top … Continue reading →

SM Confirms that Lee Seung Gi and Yoona Have Officially Broken Up

Two individuals posing for an event.

Welp, another one bites the dust, and I’m not talking about idols abruptly or inevitably leaving SM Entertainment to pursue so-called other interests. News just broke that K-ent acting-singing star couple Lee Seung Gi and Yoona of SNSD (Im Yoo Na) have officially broken up, or more accurately SM has just officially confirmed the long running rumors that they’ve broken up. … Continue reading →

Lee Seung Gi Goes for Casual Sexy Charm in Promoting Recently Released 6th Album

A Koala's Playground Posted on July 12, 2015 by ockoalaJuly 12, 2015
Young man sitting thoughtfully at a table.

Multi-talented cutie pie Lee Seung Gi had a music comeback last month in June, dropping his 6th full length album to the public at the start of the summer music crush. I haven’t gone through the whole album yet since I’m a Seung Gi acting fan while finding his music easy listening but not something I’m intensely attached to. I’m still … Continue reading →
