Park Shin Hye Plays Top Hallyu Star Opposite Kim Jae Woon in Temperature of Love Cameo

A Koala's Playground Posted on October 24, 2017 by ockoalaOctober 25, 2017
Two professionals in a modern office setting.

Whether or not Park Shin Hye‘s cameo in SBS drama Temperature of Love moves the dropped ratings back up again is beside the point for me, I’m just relieved to have a positive and non-frustrating reason to keep watching the drama. At this point it’s not quite hate-watch yet, that would require more emotional attachment and even the characters I … Continue reading →

Temperature of Love Remains Lukewarm in Second Week Ratings Even in Weak Competition

A Koala's Playground Posted on September 25, 2017 by ockoalaSeptember 25, 2017
Two people happily talking on the phone.

The best way to describe Mon-Tues SBS romance drama Temperature of Love is room temperature, that horrible in between state of being not cold enough to be a refreshing gulp or hot enough to be a sizzling sip. Week 2 started off with episodes 5 and 6 taking in 8.2% and 10.4% ratings, this is pretty uninspiring considering that rival … Continue reading →

I’m ready to test the temperature this Monday for new SBS Mon-Tues drama Temperature of Love, changing the mood on the network from serious dark subject matter to seemingly light airy romance. Starring Seo Hyun Jin, Yang Se Jong, Kim Jae Wook, and Jo Boa, the leads attended last week’s press conference in a fantastic show of camaraderie, chemistry, and … Continue reading →

The heat isn’t quite rising yet for soon to premiere new SBS romance drama Temperature of Love, arriving next Monday as Falsify wraps up its run this week. The vibe I get is less hot vat of oil bubbling and more oven on pre-heat, with all the right and light touches in setting up a visually appealing romance drama but … Continue reading →

Young woman smiles through prison bars.

Seeing Kim Jae Wook smile so adorably seals the deal for me, I’m watching upcoming SBS Mon-Tues drama Temperature of Love come hell or freezing over. I’m keeping my expectations measure for this drama in terms of ratings, romance dramas tend not to do as well these days with the domestic audience and while Seo Hyun Jin has two recent … Continue reading →

First Teaser Brings the Airy Romance for Upcoming SBS Drama Temperature of Love

Four individuals in a cozy caf setting.

I’m so super duper excited for upcoming SBS Mon-Tues drama Temperature of Love, the first time in a long time for the network to do a straight up modern rom-com in that time slot since Lie to Me. Plus Falsify is so dark and SBS has been alternating dark tense dramas this year with Defendant and Whisper I’m so ready … Continue reading →

It’s still hot out in the dog days of summer but I’m predicting simmering romance degrees to come in September when SBS airs the first romance drama of the fall with Temperature of Love, taking over from Falsify on Mon-Tues. Leading lady Seo Hyun Jin is riding a career high wave of drama successes with Another Oh Hae Young followed … Continue reading →

I’m so torn with this drama casting, and it’s torn because it’s so potentially good but only one guy can get the girl. The three leads are confirmed for upcoming Temperature of Love, with now confirmed leading lady Seo Hyun Jin going three-for-three in terms of picking a hit drama after her last two buzzy outings with Another Oh Hae … Continue reading →

The lovely Seo Hyun Jin can do wrong in my eyes, she’s amazing in all her dramas but truly has broken out last year with the cable romance drama Another Oh Hae Young followed up hit medical drama Romantic Doctor, Teacher Kim. Looks like SBS knows a good thing in her as well as she’s been offering the leading lady … Continue reading →

A Koala's Playground Posted on January 3, 2017 by ockoalaJanuary 3, 2017
Four celebrities at an awards event.

The 2016 year end K-drama awards for the big three networks came and went last weekend, smack dab in the middle of me heading off for my trans-pacific flight, taking said long flight, traveling back home from long flight, and then being massively jetlagged from said flight. All in all I lost 36 hours and also the ability to collect … Continue reading →
