Park Seo Joon Tries to Figure Out Why Park Min Young Quits in Why Secretary Kim

A Koala's Playground Posted on May 24, 2018 by ockoalaMay 24, 2018
Two stylish individuals in a dramatic pose.

We’re still two weeks out from the premiere of tvN rom-com Why Secretary Kim but the drama has maintained a steady pace in releasing promos. The second drama poster dropped with Park Seo Joon ripping up the resignation letter from his trusty Secretary Kim played by Park Min Young but she’s so prepared she has additional letters in hand. He’s … Continue reading →

Park Seo Joon and Park Min Young are a Cute and Capable Couple in Why Secretary Kim Drama Poster

A Koala's Playground Posted on May 22, 2018 by ockoalaMay 21, 2018
Two professionals sitting on a couch.

I probably have my hopes a little too optimistic for upcoming tvN drama Why Secretary Kim, but it’s understandable since the cable network continues to deliver solid dramas while the big three seem incapable of churning out consistent quality in any genre. Why Secretary Kim is adapted from a popular webtoon and the PD of This Life is Our First, … Continue reading →

Park Seo Joon Thinks Park Min Young’s Resignation is a Confession in New Why Secretary Kim Preview

A Koala's Playground Posted on May 18, 2018 by ockoalaMay 17, 2018
Dramatic scenes from a romantic Korean drama.

The visuals with the leads of Why Secretary Kim are so spot on for the roles based on the webtoon and vis-a-vis each other that it makes up for whatever flimsy narrative is in the teasers so far. All I know is that the company president Park Seo Joon is harmlessly narcissistic and his secretary Park Min Young appears prettily … Continue reading →

Park Seo Joon and Park Min Young Radiate Couple Vibes in New Why Secretary Kim Drama Stills

A Koala's Playground Posted on May 14, 2018 by ockoalaMay 14, 2018
Elegant couple at a formal event.

Oh dear these two are going to be such eye candy onscreen. The first couple stills are out of Park Seo Joon and Park Min Young in upcoming tvN romance Why Secretary Kim, and by couple I mean in the same frame looking like a couple attending a black tie affair even though they are likely still just company president … Continue reading →

Park Seo Joon Sports Bipolar Hair Style for Coffee Shop Brand Event in Seoul

A Koala's Playground Posted on May 11, 2018 by ockoalaMay 10, 2018
Male model in a stylish outfit, warm lighting.

This is the second time I’ve noticed Park Seo Joon having terrible hair moment, and it’s already more than most male stars since men’s hair styles are a whole lot harder to mess up. Last year his bad hair day lasted an entire drama namely his wig in Hwarang, proving that he really isn’t cut out for the sageuk flowing … Continue reading →

Park Seo Joon and Park Min Young Continue to Be Adorable in New Preview for Why Secretary Kim

A Koala's Playground Posted on May 9, 2018 by ockoalaMay 9, 2018
Smiling woman in a light shirt.

I’m getting a small crush on Park Min Young’s entire look in upcoming tvN drama Why Secretary Kim. The makeup, hair color and style, and of course her smart yet feminine secretary attire, she gets a solid A for radiating surround sound level charm. It contrasts nicely with Park Seo Joon who is the rich powerful boss yet is made … Continue reading →

Park Seo Joon is Hilariously Self-absorbed in Second Teaser for tvN Drama Why Secretary Kim

A Koala's Playground Posted on May 5, 2018 by ockoalaMay 5, 2018
Actor in suit, contemplative expressions in scenes.

I know K-dramas love to feature chaebols and my favorite of those types of representations is the delusional self-absorbed type who is all bark and no bite, harmless in their narcissism like it’s a hobby. Park Seo Joon gets to play that very type of chaebol complete with his very capable dedicated secretary played by Park Min Young, with tvN … Continue reading →

The 2018 54th Baeksang Arts Awards Rolls Out the Fashion Red Carpet for Top K-stars

A Koala's Playground Posted on May 3, 2018 by ockoalaMay 3, 2018
Couple waving at an event in formal attire.

The fashion do’s and don’ts remain my favorite past time for awards shows, mostly because I can’t bother to care about winners that sometimes feel arbitrary or tied to popularity. The 2018 54th Annual Baeksang Arts Awards took place Thursday night on May 3rd in Seoul and the award winners were actually quite spot on picks for the most part. … Continue reading →

First Teaser for Why Secretary Kim Has Park Seo Joon Asking That Question

A Koala's Playground Posted on April 26, 2018 by ockoalaApril 27, 2018
Man in suit, posing in three photographs.

This is a cute enough teaser and honestly anything that remotely has a whiff of a rom-com will get my interest these days. Luckily I like both leads Park Min Young and Park Seo Joon in tvN drama Why Secretary Kim based on a popular webtoon. They teaser doesn’t reveal much about Park Min Young at all, even electing to … Continue reading →

Park Seo Joon Looks Every Inch the Part of Chaebol President in First Stills of Why Secretary Kim

A Koala's Playground Posted on April 24, 2018 by ockoalaApril 23, 2018
Man in suit, posing in three photographs.

K-actor Park Seo Joon looks so impeccably cast as the cheabol company president in upcoming drama Why Secretary Kim I actually needed to check that he hasn’t played this role before. Not only that, he typically plays the underdog or normal guy type of role rather than the rich and powerful so it’s good that he’s been playing against type … Continue reading →

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 →

A Koala's Playground Posted on April 6, 2018 by ockoalaApril 6, 2018
Collage of Korean television drama posters.

The 2018 54th Annual Baeksang Awards nominees are out and honestly each year I care a smidge less because I watch less of all the offerings and also the older one gets the less emotionally invested in these show affairs. On the television side which I at least watched more than the K-movies, the Best Drama nominees were led by … Continue reading →
