Park Seo Joon and Park Min Young Hold Script Reading for tvN Drama Why Secretary Kim

A Koala's Playground Posted on April 20, 2018 by ockoalaApril 21, 2018
Actors participating in a group meeting.

I have solid hopes for upcoming tvN Wed-Thur drama Why Secretary Kim, it’s adapted from a same name webtoon and I like both leads Park Min Young and Park Seo Joon. It’s got a cute sounding premise of a long time capable secretary to a spoiled but decent hearted chaebol heir and the gradual transformation of their working relationship into … Continue reading →

Rom-coms continue to reside in the bottom rung of K-drama ratings to start of 2018, currently airing KBS Mon-Tues workplace romance Radio Romance (more contemplative rom and less com) is getting around 3-4% ratings. Cable network tvN got a solid rom-com win last year with This Life is Our First and now it’s scheduling a late spring rom-com adapted from … Continue reading →

Black and White Dominate the Red Carpet at the 2017 Asia Artist Awards

A Koala's Playground Posted on November 15, 2017 by ockoalaNovember 15, 2017
Smiling man holding stuffed animals at event.

The 2017 Asia Artist Awards went off without a hitch, other than the usual fashion boredom that is now part and parcel with every Korean red carpet. It’s like the ladies make no effort to be creative or challenging, or if they did make an effort and that’s the dress each chose then that’s even worse! The men get a … Continue reading →

This is a post solely to prep for this week’s Asia Artist Awards, thank to the star-studded line up that will be making an appearance either to present or to perform. On the acting stars alone it’s worth checking out – Lee Seung Gi will be making his first entertainment appearance since his military discharge two weeks ago, and also … Continue reading →

Park Min Young Still Pretty Despite Queen-sized Fashion Misfire at Drama Wrap Party for Seven Days Queen

A Koala's Playground Posted on August 8, 2017 by ockoalaAugust 7, 2017
Smiling woman with long, wavy black hair.

Park Min Young just wrapped melodrama sageuk Seven Days Queen and looks remarkably rested and beautifully fresh-faced at the drama wrap party this week. On the flip side she’s dressed like she time-traveled forward to the modern era and is really the queen from Joseon because once she arrived she had no clue how to dress and put on an … Continue reading →

Park Min Young Sultry and Sophisticated for Grazia Magazine

A Koala's Playground Posted on June 1, 2017 by ockoalaMay 31, 2017

It’s hard to believe that the present day Park Min Young looking drop dead ravishing in the pages of Grazia Magazine is the same teen girl I first watched in 2006 K-drama High Kick. She’s turning 32 years old this year and with it tackling a very mature role as the titular Seven Days Queen in the upcoming sageuk costarring Yeon … Continue reading →

Three characters in traditional Korean attire.

It’s going to be a sageuk showdown on Wed-Thurs as new arrival Seven Days Queen (Queen for Seven Days) takes over the KBS time slot from recently concluded Queen of Mystery. Current time slot leading drama is the MBC sageuk Ruler: Master of the Mask while SBS is coming in third with quirky Suspicious Partner. Ruler has a three week … Continue reading →

New Stills Showcase Love Triangle of Leads Park Min Young, Yeon Woo Jin, and Lee Dong Gun in Seven Days Queen

Couple gazing at each other by a waterfall.

Oh boy does this look majorly cute to start and way to depressing a likely ending. New drama stills and teaser have arrived for sageuk love triangle drama Seven Days Queen based on the real life story of Queen Dangyeon. I’m certain that queen’s life as a queen for 7 days isn’t nearly as swoony K-drama romantic in angst as … Continue reading →

First Visually Arresting and Sad DramaTeaser with Park Min Young as Seven Days Queen

A Koala's Playground Posted on May 4, 2017 by ockoalaMay 4, 2017
Emotional woman embraces another person gently.

I’m getting depressing vibes from the first teaser for upcoming KBS sageuk Seven Days Queen (or Queen for Seven Days), but then again just the premise of a woman being queen for 7 days before removal from her position seems dire without a possible happy ending in sight. The titular queen refers to Joseon era Queen Dangyeon, married to King … Continue reading →

Park Min Young Does Beautifully Edgy for Instyle Korea

Edgy is not what I think whenever I picture Park Min Young, so much of my first impression of her remains fixed from her breakout role Sungkyunkwan Scandal days. Yes, it’s been 7 years since that drama aired in 2010 and so much has changed then with her and her three male leads, but that impression of her being sweet … Continue reading →

KBS just premiered its new Wed-Thurs drama Mystery Queen to passable ratings but with the follow up drama being a sageuk it’s getting close to the wire to finalize the cast and start filming. This week came the main cast confirmations for Seven Days Queen with the love triangle leads being Park Min Young toggling two royal brothers in Yeon … Continue reading →
