Park Min Young Focused on Her Acting and Counters Netizen Critique of Her Looks in Healer

A Koala's Playground Posted on March 1, 2015 by ockoalaMarch 1, 2015

I’m comfortably bipolar when it comes to Park Min Young. She is one of the few acting talents that I judge project to project and don’t carry too much previous opinion forward when it comes to whatever she’s lined up next. It’s pretty evenly split on her dramas I loved her in (Man of Honor, Healer, A New Leaf) and … Continue reading →

2014 KBS Year End Drama Awards

A Koala's Playground Posted on December 31, 2014 by ockoalaDecember 31, 2014

Despite being the perennial prime time ratings loser in 2014, the KBS Drama Awards was heads and tails better than what MBC put on the night before in both fashion, star power, and actually awarding quality acting. Of course not every deserving performance got recognized but the network tried and didn’t pander as much to promoting the young and pretty. Veteran … Continue reading →

Big Three Networks Line Up Pretty Leading Lady MCs for Year End Drama Awards

A Koala's Playground Posted on December 11, 2014 by ockoalaDecember 10, 2014

Looks like the big three Korean networks are all set for the year end drama awards despite what has been unanimously labeled a lackluster year in both ratings and drama quality. There might be sterling outliers here and there but overall the audiences responded with a collective meh. If the networks couldn’t produce the quality then it might as well … Continue reading →

Healer Readies for Monday Premiere Posters, Press Conference, and Exciting Long Preview

A Koala's Playground Posted on December 6, 2014 by ockoalaDecember 6, 2014

The upcoming KBS Mon-Tues drama Healer has remained consistently intriguing in all the promotional materials. Now all it has to do is actually deliver when it premieres next Monday. It can’t possibly be worse than its predecessor Tomorrow’s Cantabile in either ratings or quality, now can it? I don’t want to jinx the drama but there’s a great energy about … Continue reading →

Healer Keeps Up the Great Momentum with Third New Teaser

A Koala's Playground Posted on November 30, 2014 by ockoalaNovember 30, 2014

This year has seen plenty of flame out K-dramas of the Go Big or Go Home variety that unfortunately went down the slink home in shame style. Big name stars with big budgets and/or big expectations such as My Lovely Girl or Tomorrow’s Cantabile or You’re All Surrounded, dramas that never lived up to the hype either in ratings or … Continue reading →

The Leads of Healer Shine in New Visually Intriguing Character Stills

A Koala's Playground Posted on November 21, 2014 by ockoalaNovember 20, 2014

I’m seriously so enamored of whatever Park Min Young has got going on in Healer. It’s the combination of her cute new mussy shoulder length hair and the fact that she’s totally glowing. The fresh and understated make up doesn’t hurt either. I’m also seeing all the earlier mentions of the resemblance to City Hunter especially when Park Min Young … Continue reading →

Healer Drops Exciting Sleek and High Tech First Drama Teaser

A Koala's Playground Posted on November 15, 2014 by ockoalaNovember 15, 2014

KBS has been an abysmal failure in the prime time ratings this year but I like to believe the next promising drama from the network can change the tides. It’s either that optimism or acknowledging the network is basically incompetent when it comes to lining up dramas. Tomorrow’s Cantabile is thankfully just a 16-episode drama so the Mon-Tues time slot … Continue reading →

Park Min Young Looking Fresh and Lovely as Healer’s Intrepid Reporter

A Koala's Playground Posted on November 10, 2014 by ockoalaNovember 9, 2014

I’m a little bit rooting for Park Min Young‘s career now that she climbed back out of a major nearly two year long slump. She’s not a fave of mine and frankly the only performance of hers I’ve ever liked was in the horrible written KBS drama Man of Honor (Glory Jane). That drama tried my brain cells and patience … Continue reading →

KBS Pulls Back the Curtains on Upcoming Mysterious Drama Healer

A Koala's Playground Posted on November 6, 2014 by ockoalaNovember 7, 2014

I haven’t been paying much attention to the upcoming KBS Mon-Tues drama Healer mainly because none of the three leads interest me particularly. Starring Yoo Ji Tae, Ji Chang Wook, and Park Min Young, this drama was announced and cast pretty early so there was also the odd sensation that it should have aired by now. Healer will premiere in a few weeks once … Continue reading →

KBS in Lurch with Iron Man: Lead-in Joseon Gunman Extended 2-episodes and Follow-up Healer Complete Main Cast

A Koala's Playground Posted on August 4, 2014 by ockoalaAugust 4, 2014

There’s a storm brewing in the KBS Wed-Thurs time slot and hopefully this week will iron (har har) things out fully. Joseon Gunman has been leading the ratings but it’s a nominal victory since all three dramas including It’s Okay, It’s Love and Fated to Love You are are so close together and have plenty of buzz. I like it … Continue reading →

Lawyer Redemption Drama A New Leaf with Kim Myung Min Premieres this Wed on MBC

A Koala's Playground Posted on April 29, 2014 by ockoalaApril 29, 2014

I love Kim Myung Min’s acting and in dramas alone he’s tackled so many indelible archetypes and made each on completely different. It’s high time he’s played a lawyer and tomorrow MBC premieres it’s transformed-man-legal-drama A New Leaf (Repentance). Co-starring Park Min Young, Kim Sang Joong, Chae Jung Ahn, and fresh off Empress Ki playing fan favorite Tal Tal Jin Yi Han, … Continue reading →

First Teasers for A New Leaf and In Gyo Jin Replaced by Oh Jung Se Due to Differences with Writer

A Koala's Playground Posted on April 12, 2014 by ockoalaApril 11, 2014

Kim Myung Min is an exceeding smexy man who looks even smexier in a suit. There, I just had to get that off my chest. I’m going to be a very happy camper if I get to watch him in a suit most of the time in the upcoming MBC drama A New Leaf. The Spring dramas are seriously funneling … Continue reading →

A New Leaf Starts Filming with Kim Myung Min, Park Min Young, Kim Sang Joong, and Chae Jung Ahn

A Koala's Playground Posted on April 5, 2014 by ockoalaApril 5, 2014

I find MBC the major network with the most diverse line-up of offerings in its Wed-Thurs slot, which probably cosmically balances out its nearly two year long sageuk streak in the Mon-Tues offering. If I go back exactly one year ago, the Wed-Thurs slot started April off with straight up romance melodrama in When a Man Loves, that was followed … Continue reading →
