So Ji Sub Takes Care of Shin Mina in New Stills and Drama Teaser for Oh My Venus

A Koala's Playground Posted on November 9, 2015 by ockoalaNovember 9, 2015
Warm moments between two characters in bed.

I think I’m already fangirling chubby Shin Mina in upcoming KBS drama Oh My Venus. The real life super skinny actress looks sooooooo cute in a chubby suit persona, in no diss to folks who are slightly rounder in real life the way her character looks in the drama. She’s called fat at 77 kg (around 170 lbs) but I … Continue reading →

New Stills Show Before and After Weight Loss Pictures of Shin Mina in Oh My Venus

I feel like the discussion over visuals can be such a potential landmine. Unless the approach is tongue-in-cheek, any attempts to fatten up or uglify drama leads inevitably leads to some sort of comment backlash. I’ll try hard not to offend anyone when I discuss the recently released new stills from upcoming KBS drama Oh My Venus that show a … Continue reading →

So Ji Sub and Shin Mina Flirt Up a Sweat in Teasers and Stills for Oh My Venus

A Koala's Playground Posted on November 4, 2015 by ockoalaNovember 3, 2015
Couple sharing intimate moments in various scenes.

I’m not getting a particularly memorable takeaway with any of the teasers and stills for upcoming KBS Mon-Tues drama Oh My Venus. I’m still happiest with the casting of leads So Ji Sub and Shin Mina along with the drama changed its title from the overly broad and can have way too many connotations depending on usage and tone Oh … Continue reading →

Dapper So Ji Sub and Cute High School Shin Mina in First Stills for Oh My Venus

A Koala's Playground Posted on October 22, 2015 by ockoalaOctober 22, 2015

Sophisticated sexy is one of my favorite leading man looks and the production of upcoming KBS drama Oh My Venus totally nails it for So Ji Sub. This drama will be crawling out of the ratings pits left by its predecessor Sassy Go Go, which currently resides so far below MBC makjang Glamorous Temptation and SBS sageuk Six Flying Dragons. … Continue reading →

So Ji Sub and Shin Mina Lead the Script Reading for KBS Drama Oh My Venus

A Koala's Playground Posted on October 15, 2015 by ockoalaOctober 15, 2015
Group of people focused in a meeting.

Leave it to born sexy So Ji Sub to always find a way to un-sexy himself thoroughly with the use of simple clothes. He does it so spectacularly he always manages to steal the spotlight for the wrong sartorial reasons, and in this case it’s at the script reading for upcoming KBS drama Oh My Venus. It feels a bit … Continue reading →

Giordano Releases Fall 2015 CFs with Real Life Couple Shin Mina and Kim Woo Bin

A Koala's Playground Posted on October 12, 2015 by ockoalaOctober 11, 2015
Couple leaning against a brick wall together.

There’s an odd chemistry around real life couple Kim Woo Bin and Shin MIna, and it’s even more apparent when they do CFs together, like the recently released pictorial for casual wear brand Giordano. I don’t mean anything negative when I say odd, just that the vibe they get off is rather different than expected – while Kim Woo Bin … Continue reading →

KBS Finalizes So Ji Sub-Shin Mina Drama with Name Change to Oh My Venus and Casting of Supporting Leads

A Koala's Playground Posted on October 10, 2015 by ockoalaOctober 11, 2015
Two stylish individuals posing for a photo.

There’s been major movement this week on upcoming KBS Mon-Tues drama Oh My God, starting with a name change to Oh My Venus. It’s not a good drama title still, but slightly better than Oh My God which can range from a disaster drama all the way to slapstick comedy with no real clue that it’s supposed to convey. Venus … Continue reading →

Oh My God with So Ji Sub and Shin Mina May Get the KBS December Mon-Tues Slot

A Koala's Playground Posted on September 1, 2015 by ockoalaSeptember 1, 2015
Two people posing for a photo.

There’s a teeny update on upcoming KBS drama Oh My God, a title for me that now conjures up connections to the recently finished Oh My Ghost on tvN, what with the exclamation and the exact same initials. Oh My Ghost was a solid hit for tvN so there are worse dramas for Oh My God to be coincidentally associated with. KBS … Continue reading →

Oh My God with Shin Mina and So Ji Sub May Get Pushed Up to October Due to Blooming in Tears Production Issues

A Koala's Playground Posted on August 7, 2015 by ockoalaAugust 7, 2015
Fashionable couple posing for a photoshoot.

KBS seems to be in a bind right now with the next drama to follow upcoming Mon-Tues drama Taming Mother-in-Law, which is about to take over in two weeks once I Remember You ends. This is a time slot for KBS that hasn’t seen a single ratings hit drama in over a year, starting from last year with Trot Lovers to … Continue reading →

Shin Mina and Kim Woo Bin Confirm Relationship After Dispatch Outs Their Secret Dates

A Koala's Playground Posted on July 22, 2015 by ockoalaJuly 22, 2015
Couple posing casually in stylish outfits.

I went to sleep and woke up to a K-ent with a brand new top star couple confirmed. I’m more than happy to have missed the standard hullabaloo from dating rumor reveal to checking with the agency to confirmation/denial, but apparently this new couple copped to the still young relationship quite readily. Current K-ent It Boy Kim Woo Bin and … Continue reading →

It’s looking more and more unlikely that Shin Mina will be returning to the small screen this year. She’s been signed on for SBS drama Will You Have Dinner with Me (Let’s Have Dinner Together) since May but the drama was bumped from the network’s summer schedule for upcoming darker melo Yongpalyi with Joo Won and Kim Tae Hee. That’s a … Continue reading →

Fans of Shin Mina waiting for her K-drama comeback will have to wait a few months longer.
