Character Previews for Hwarang Put Goofy Action in Sageuk Setting

A Koala's Playground Posted on December 10, 2016 by ockoalaDecember 9, 2016
Three characters in traditional attire.

The arrival of Shilla flower boys is a little less than two weeks ago and I don’t know if KBS is relieved that the very low rated The Man Living in Our House is ending or worried that it’s sunk cost pre-filmed sageuk Hwarang is still going to have to go up against the tail end of the big Mon-Tues … Continue reading →

Literal Flower Boys Stroll Through the Woods in Drama Poster for Hwarang: The Beginning

A Koala's Playground Posted on November 2, 2016 by ockoalaNovember 2, 2016
Smiling woman holding a paintbrush outdoors.

Someone in the production team of upcoming KBS sageuk Hwarang: The Beginning took the flower boy in the Korean title much too literally. The Shilla era sageuk is about the well known corps of historical time flower boy warrior scholars who won battles with their collective pretty, or something like that. The newest set of drama and character posters are … Continue reading →

Medical Top Team Delays Premiere for a Week and Will Go Head-to-Head Against Heirs

A Koala's Playground Posted on October 3, 2013 by ockoalaOctober 2, 2013

This week is simultaneously a very slow week in K-dramaland since there isn’t a new drama premiering, but also a very anxious week for the fans of The Master’s Sun which is wrapping up in mere hours. Two Weeks ended last week on MBC so its follow up drama the geniuses-in-one-hospital medical drama Medical Top Team was slated to premiere … Continue reading →

Medical Top Team Continues to Look More and More Interesting with Latest Stills

A Koala's Playground Posted on September 15, 2013 by ockoalaSeptember 15, 2013

Originally there was going to be a head-to-head showdown between the upcoming two new Wed-Thurs dramas – Heirs or The Inheritors was going to premiere on October 2nd the same day as Medical Top Team. But for whatever reason SBS is delaying its premiere for one week (probably airing filler rather than ask The Master’s Sun for an extension), which … Continue reading →

The First Official Cast Stills Dial Up the Interest for Medical Top Team

A Koala's Playground Posted on August 31, 2013 by ockoalaAugust 31, 2013

I have a long and fruitful love/boredom relationship with medical K-dramas. I’ve marathoned quite a few, but by and large the genre basically tells me to stay away. Those of you who read my blog know my real profession, so I am clearly not a doctor who would likely burst a blood vessel in rage when watching K-dramas completely slander … Continue reading →

A Star-studded Premiere for K-movie Secretly, Greatly

A Koala's Playground Posted on May 28, 2013 by ockoalaMarch 27, 2015

This might be one of the most star-packed K-movie premieres I’ve seen in a long time, which goes to show that Kim Soo Hyun’s star is incredibly high and his agency Key East Entertainment has lots and lots of A-list stars under founder Bae Yong Joon’s vest since everyone was trotted out for this premiere to support Kim Soo Hyun. … Continue reading →

To the Beautiful You Holds Press Conference and Releases Long Trailer

A Koala's Playground Posted on August 13, 2012 by ockoalaAugust 13, 2012

It’s looking more and more like my gut instinct about To the Beautiful You is right. Sulli and Min Ho are likely the closest live-action actors to their manga counterparts in Hana Kimi. She looks feminine but has the masculine swagger and attitude down right, and Min Ho is aloof without coming across as half asleep or robotic. Of course … Continue reading →

Fun New Stills and Fourth Teaser for To the Beautiful You

A Koala's Playground Posted on August 8, 2012 by ockoalaAugust 8, 2012

Ah To the Beautiful You, still looking cute there! We’re a week out from the scrum next Wednesday when Beautiful You premieres along with Arang and the Magistrate. To say the two dramas are as different from each other as night and day is an understatement, plus Gakistal is still around since it got an extension, which makes the ratings … Continue reading →

Sulli Cozies up to Sangchoo as To the Beautiful You Releases 3rd Teaser

A Koala's Playground Posted on July 29, 2012 by ockoalaJuly 28, 2012

To the Beautiful You is determined to make me love it. First it casts Min Ho as quite possibly the most perfect Sano Izumi to date (looks and physique-wise, though acting isn’t that high of a bar to match up to since Wu Zun can’t act his way out of a paper bag and Oguri Shun strangely decided to barely … Continue reading →

To the Beautiful You Drops Second Peppy Teaser

A Koala's Playground Posted on July 25, 2012 by ockoalaJuly 25, 2012

I think there is some cosmic drama in-joke somewhere that has resulted in me recapping Oguri Shun’s Rich Man, Poor Woman around the same time Korea’s remake of Hana Kimi is about to premiere. What will original J-flavor Sano Izumi think about his hoobae Min Ho trying on the high jumping champion facing a career bottleneck? I know what I … Continue reading →

Stills of the Fateful First Meeting Between Min Ho and Sulli in To the Beautiful You

A Koala's Playground Posted on July 24, 2012 by ockoalaJuly 24, 2012

I’m going out on a limb here and throwing out the possibility that, despite being pack to the gill with SM Entertainment Idols, the upcoming Hana Kimi remake To the Beautiful You might actually be good. I base my conjecture on two things: (1) this first set of stills between leads Min Ho and Sulli look cute and chemistry-laden, and … Continue reading →

First Teaser for To the Beautiful You Showcases a Youthful Vibe

A Koala's Playground Posted on July 19, 2012 by ockoalaJuly 19, 2012

To the Beautiful You just released its first energetic teaser and to my non-surprise, I like it! I have this weird relationship with dramas adapted from mangas, don’t ask. Even the hot mess Boys Before Flowers kept me riveted during its live airing, and I adored Playful Kiss for its slow burn not much happens mellowness. Beautiful You is the K-version of … Continue reading →
