First Look at KBS Drama Soul Repairer with Shin Ha Kyun and Jung So Min

A Koala's Playground Posted on March 18, 2020 by ockoalaMarch 16, 2020
Smiling friends enjoying time together outdoors.

I love the title of this drama and hopefully it’ll also deliver what it’s title aims to do. KBS late spring drama Soul Repairer has released the first look with leads Shin Ha Kyun and Jung So Min. It’s a drama by the PD of Brain (hence the reunion with Shin Ha Kyun) and My Daughter Seo Young with the … Continue reading →

A break up of a low key adult couple wouldn’t make splashy news except and until there’s the salacious element of cheating or fan shipping dreams come true. Veteran actor Shin Ha Kyun and movie-drama young actress Kim Go Eun have confirmed the rumors of a breakup, with the couple explaining that their busy work schedules naturally led to not … Continue reading →

K-ent News Pundits Predict Who Will Win the 2014 Network Year End Drama Award Daesang

A Koala's Playground Posted on November 23, 2014 by ockoalaNovember 23, 2014

The K-ent news pundits have started speculating about the three prime time Korean network Year End Drama awards and which actor or actress will nab the coveted Daesang (Grand Prize). SBS had the best year thanks to once-in-a-decade type of buzzy hit You From Another Star, which technically started airing in December 2013 but the drama was not included in the … Continue reading →

MBC’s Mr. Back Premieres with Best Prime Time Drama First Episode Ratings of 2014

A Koala's Playground Posted on November 5, 2014 by ockoalaNovember 5, 2014

The year is less than two months from ending and there is finally a prime time K-drama that premiered in 2014 with ratings numbers that aren’t either an embarrassment or resigned mediocrity. MBC‘s rich grandpa age-reversing Wed-Thurs drama Mr. Back (Mr. Baek) just became the highest first episode prime time drama premiere of the year. Episode 1 notched a 14.2% … Continue reading →

Mr. Back Releases Four Fun Official Drama Posters

A Koala's Playground Posted on November 1, 2014 by ockoalaNovember 1, 2014

MBC has been regularly the ratings loser in the Wed-Thurs prime time slot for quite some time now until the just finished My Spring Days led a very very weak competition line up. That’s not an indication of quality since some of the dramas have been quite good actually. I’m really looking forward to the upcoming Mr. Back (Mr. Baek) … Continue reading →

MBC’s Mr. Back Looking Good with Hilarious New Teaser and Drama Stills

A Koala's Playground Posted on October 30, 2014 by ockoalaOctober 30, 2014

There are so many things to look forward to with the upcoming MBC drama Mr. Back (Mr. Baek), which actually starts next week in a sign that time isn’t just flying it’s evaporating before our eyes. The imminent arrival of Mr. Back works well also to reference the thematic narrative of an old man at the end of his life … Continue reading →

Comedic Reverse-aging K-drama Mr. Back Releases First Teaser Preview

A Koala's Playground Posted on October 23, 2014 by ockoalaOctober 22, 2014

Not bad, not bad at all. The first teaser preview is out for the upcoming MBC Wed-Thurs drama now officially called Mr. Back. It used to be known as Mr. Baek for the last name of the age-reversing male lead, which granted wasn’t terribly clever or memorable, but now with Mr. Back I just think baby got back for some … Continue reading →

Jang Nara Makes a Quick Return to Dramas Joining Shin Ha Kyun in Mr. Baek

A Koala's Playground Posted on October 10, 2014 by ockoalaOctober 9, 2014

Shin Ha Kyun and Jang Nara? Well this is a very interesting onscreen coupling indeed. Ladies and gents, we have our Mr. Baek, and future Mrs. Baek I presume. I was starting to get really really worried about the casting confirmations for MBC‘s upcoming Wed-Thurs drama Mr. Baek, a drama that is following the currently airing My Spring Days which … Continue reading →

All About My Love Ends with a Happy Wedding for Lee Min Jung and Shin Ha Kyun

A Koala's Playground Posted on May 30, 2013 by ockoalaMay 30, 2013

I’ll admit it, I’m such a sucker for gorgeous wedding pictures. Atmospheric, dreamy, romantic, brightly lit wedding pictures with the bride in an elegant voluminous gown and the groom in a classy fits-perfectly tuxedo. Today All About My Love starring Shin Ha Kyun and Lee Min Jung ended its very ratings disappointing run with a happy ending for all. I’ve … Continue reading →

The Romance in All About My Love Begins in Earnest with a Rooftop Kiss

A Koala's Playground Posted on April 24, 2013 by ockoalaApril 24, 2013

Is anyone still watching All About My Love? I’ve been focusing on the low-ratings of Jang Ok Jung, Live in Love on Mon-Tues, but its sister drama from the same network SBS is actually getting slaughtered even more on Wed-Thurs. I wrote a first impressions review of AAML that eviscerated it for being over-the-top (in a non-funny and really annoying … Continue reading →

Teaser and Stills from All About My Love with Shin Ha Kyun and Lee Min Jung

A Koala's Playground Posted on March 21, 2013 by ockoalaMarch 21, 2013

I haven’t written much about upcoming political rom-com All About My Love with Shin Ha Kyun and Lee Min Jung, other than to note that it went through three potential leading ladies (Im Soo Jung, Gong Hyo Jin, and Han Hye Jin) before securing this current cast. This is actually the Wed-Thurs drama I’m most interested in of the upcoming … Continue reading →
