Whatever my gripes are with tvN Wed-Thurs drama Mouse, it continues to keep me wanting to click watch on each episode so that’s a testament to the cast and the still to be revealed secrets I still want to know. This week’s episodes 18-19 was really a bunch of confirmation reveals on a lot of theories viewers have been speculating … Continue reading →

A Koala's Playground Posted on by

One of these characters is not like the two others but what the hey, I do agree with the plea at the end. K-media this week shined a spotlight on three leading men of K-dramas Song Joong Ki, Lee Je Hoon, and Lee Seung Gi, each of whom is currently starring in a series.

A Koala's Playground Posted on by

The Forbes 2021 ranking of Power Celebrity is out for South Korean entertainment and it includes not just actors and actresses but all celebrities including sports stars and MCs. This remains more a snapshot of who had popular/breakout/buzzyworthy projects in that year than the overall popularity and power status in the industry, though it is worth noting if star stays … Continue reading →

tvN Wed-Thurs Drama Mouse to Air Two Special Episodes This Week Showing Scenes From the Point of View of Lee Seung Gi’s Earlier Drama Psychopath Killer

A Koala's Playground Posted on by

I’ve gotten a new angle on tvN drama Mouse and it’s all thanks to Falcon and the Winter Soldier. I didn’t watch it due to time constraints but Mr. Koala and Koala Teen Girl did (emo Koala Teen Boy is not into super heroes lol), and hearing snippets on the television and of course being a full Marvel fangirl I … Continue reading →

tvN Mouse: a Little Rave and a Lot of Rant Up Through Episode 15 of the Crime Thriller Drama with Lee Seung Gi and Lee Hee Joon

A Koala's Playground Posted on by

I….have a lot of thoughts about tvN drama Mouse, but it’s so jumbled much like this drama I don’t know where the start hence the lack of consistently writing about it. It’s probably the most “interesting” drama airing right now for me, but the majority of that stem from constant WTF, aggravation, shock for shock factor, and general sense of … Continue reading →

Mouse Episode 8 Ratings are 6.414% With Ba Reum Turning Into a Crack Detective With Secrets Abounding In and Around Him

A Koala's Playground Posted on by

I’m so conflicted with tvN Wed-Thurs drama Mouse, much like the male lead Ba Reum played by Lee Seung Gi. I want to love this drama so much with a fantastic cast and slick execution on top of a twisty script. But emotionally it just doesn’t resonate with me the same way the writer’s previous super twisty thriller God’s Gift: … Continue reading →

Lee Hee Joon Puts on a Tour de Force Performance in Episode 5 of Mouse as the Killer Escalates the Pain

A Koala's Playground Posted on by

Episode 5 of Mouse can probably be a standalone episode because it left me speechless. The tactics were frustrating to deliver the crescendo but the emotional impact really washed away all the nonsensical, coincidental, and absurd events that needed to deliver the gut punch. I can’t believe the Korean police would allow a live show with call in to catch … Continue reading →

tvN Thriller Drama Mouse Rises in Second Week Ratings to 6.202% as the Story and Characters Start to Coalesce in the Search for the New Serial Killer

A Koala's Playground Posted on by

I found tvN Wed-Thurs drama Mouse a bit underwhelming last week, it didn’t grab me as the killings were exceedingly brutal but the characters unknown so it doesn’t emotionally connect. The first and second episodes also didn’t segue well, from the OG serial killer now behind bars to new investigations with some bumbling tone thrown in, I wasn’t quite feeling … Continue reading →

tvN Drama Mouse is Off to a Shaky Serial Killer Chase Premise as First Two Episodes Brings in 4.948% and 4.044% Ratings

A Koala's Playground Posted on by

Every time there is a Lee Seung Gi drama I’m on pins and needles hoping my boy picked well and doesn’t end up with a narrative stinker. His recently premiered tvN drama Mouse comes with high critical pedigree from the screenwriter of God’s Gift: 14 Days and Black and a lofty premise not just on catching a serial killer but … Continue reading →

A Koala's Playground Posted on by

Upcoming tvN drama Mouse is certainly marching in a no-nonsense way into its early March premiere, with none of the shiny glitzy promos and an overwhelming sense of dread. The first drama poster was pretty plain featuring male leads Lee Seung Gi and Lee Hee Joon staring at something with a police gaze and now the individual posters take the … Continue reading →

A Koala's Playground Posted on by

I thought tvN thriller drama Mouse would be airing later into 2021 but it’s actually premiering soon, next month in February in the Wed-Thurs time slot after True Beauty. The production released this week a haunting short teaser preview with child actor Kim Kang Hoon who is playing the kid version of male lead Lee Seung Gi‘s character in the … Continue reading →
