A Koala's Playground Posted on March 14, 2016 by ockoalaMarch 14, 2016

It’s undoubtedly a steep hill to climb for Goodbye Mr. Black to bring in the drama viewers when it premieres this week. Any new drama has its work cut out to lure viewers in because of an interesting story or a fantastic cast, but that feat is future burdened when there is a hit already airing on the competition networks. … Continue reading →

Drama Posters for Goodbye Mr. Black are All Dark with One Twilight Throwback

The drama posters for upcoming MBC revenge thriller drama Goodbye Mr. Black just dropped and is mostly dull and uninspired but for one sterling winner. The group poster above is a dead ringer for the types of movie posters in the Twilight movie series! I’m just waiting for sunlight induced sparkles around Lee Jin Wook to turn his Mr. Black … Continue reading →

Moon Chae Won Redefines Short Hair Goddess Pretty in Goodbye Mr. Black

Smiling woman by the water's edge.

I’m totally girl crushing on Moon Chae Won‘s short hair style in upcoming MBC drama Goodbye Mr. Black. It was goodbye long lustrous locks for her when she signed on for this project and I hope no tears were shed because it’s my favorite boy cut look ever. Park Shin Hye did it in You’re Beautiful and was more cute … Continue reading →

Main Leads of Goodbye Mr. Black Continue Rocking their Character Visuals in New Stills and Preview

That all the promotional materials for upcoming MBC Wed-Thurs drama Goodbye Mr. Black look genuinely promising, the official stills moreso than then first trailers for me, bodes well for this latecomer to the competitive time slot. Descendants of the Sun is already going well and judging by the noticeable ratings increase for Please Come Back Ahjusshi from the first to … Continue reading →

A Cheerful Tomboy and a Gentleman Officer in New Stills From Goodbye Mr. Black

Two men in white naval uniforms.

Last week’s premieres of the highly anticipated Wed-Thurs dramas Descendants of the Sun and Please Come Back Ahjusshi was off to a good start, but not at the level of astronomical ratings that latecomer competition Goodbye Mr. Black doesn’t have a chance to succeed when it premieres soon. I feel like having three good dramas doesn’t necessarily steal ratings away … Continue reading →

Man in suit with a gun, intense expression.

This isn’t quite up to snuff but no biggie since it’s just a short ten second teaser not to mention recently a drama reminded me that lackluster promos isn’t a surefire death knell. The first teaser is out for upcoming MBC drama Goodbye Mr. Black, and for the sake of the production team I hope the drama doesn’t premiere to … Continue reading →

Woman reading in a trash-strewn alley.

I was expecting the first official stills of Moon Chae Won from her upcoming MBC drama Goodbye Mr. Black and the production is right on schedule. Following on the one-two punch of leading men Lee Jin Wook and Kim Kang Woo, the first peek at leading lady Moon Chae Won is a solid win for me. She rocks the short … Continue reading →

Group of people in a study session.

Filming is quietly underway for upcoming MBC Wed-Thurs drama Goodbye Mr. Black, will premieres in mid-March taking over for One More Happy Ending. That’s going to be a major tonal shift, which isn’t a bad thing since SBS shows that a revenge thriller drama like Yongpal can really snazzy up audience interest and conjure ratings. SBS has done doing darker … Continue reading →

It’s easy to see why fame is fleeting in an out of sight out of mind way because I’ve done forgot about upcoming MBC drama Goodbye Mr. Black. Once it was in the news all the time for casting updates, then later for which network was airing it back-and-forth, but once it was set on MBC and then got pushed … Continue reading →

Moon Chae Won Debuts New Pixie Cut at Movie Press Conference with Yoo Yeon Seok

I hate to sound like one adverse to change, and I certainly appreciate a daring makeover for the willingness to experiment, but in this case can I have old Moon Chae Won back? Jeon Ji Hyun is notable in K-ent among leading ladies for never ever switching up her style of long haired natural sexiness, but aside from her nearly … Continue reading →

OMGosh, just what is wrong with this drama? I haven’t been agreeing or disagreeing with all the recent fan bitching about SBS passing on revenge melo Goodbye Mr. Black with Lee Jin Wook and Moon Chae Won, it’s hard with so little information to ascertain who is at fault even if it’s really one-sided. Chances are that the incompatibility came from … Continue reading →

I’m sure tons of folks will be thrilled to hear this drama news – Goodbye Mr. Black has been officially revived! I never thought it was totally dead, that makes no sense when the drama has a writing-directing team already and finished casting the main leads. Whereas when drama projects like the shelved Shin Mina rom-com Let’s Have Dinner Together … Continue reading →

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 →
