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. Her summer 2015 return to SBS Wed-Thurs via the drama adaptation of the popular webtoon Will You Have Dinner with Me (Let’s Have Dinner Together) has been pushed back to fall, and may or may not even get that time slot either.

Either the script is awesome or Shin Mina is simply ready for a dramaland return, whatever the reason she’s made life easier for drama lovers by agreeing to star in upcoming SBS drama Will You Have Dinner With Me (Let’s Have Dinner Together). New broke about her considering the offer only last week but she isn’t the thumb twiddling type … Continue reading →

This is most excellent drama news, but a word of caution not to get too excited since it’s still a ways out and much can change in the interim. SBS is lining up dramas well into the summer and a new production joins the busy line up with modern workplace romance Let’s Have Dinner Together. The drama will be adapted … Continue reading →

Shin Mina is a Beautiful Bare-faced Bride for High Cut Magazine

A Koala's Playground Posted on August 13, 2014 by ockoalaAugust 13, 2014

Shin Mina is really effortlessly gorgeous whether she’s goofy or a goddess. She’s been exclusively in movie land for the last two years since Arang and the Magistrate in the Summer of ’12 so I haven’t really see her around much. Sure she’s in tons of CFs and can probably rest her laurels on that alone, but in terms of … Continue reading →

Shin Mina Shines with Style in Star1 Magazine

A Koala's Playground Posted on March 2, 2013 by ockoalaMarch 2, 2013

Shin Mina is such an endorsement queen in Korea that it’s not surprising she’s not in more movies or dramas. I don’t have a problem with her trove of endorsement deals since she’s a completely winning model, with legs that seemingly go on forever and dimples that fairly mesmerize the viewer into heeding her siren’s call and go out and … Continue reading →

Happy Cast Pictures from the Arang and the Magistrate Wrap Party

A Koala's Playground Posted on October 20, 2012 by ockoalaOctober 19, 2012

You win some, you lose some, and that saying applies much too aptly to dramas. A drama starring a favorite actor is no guarantee it’ll be good, and I’m way too busy in life to waste time with stuff that just doesn’t resonate with me. With that said, having to drop Arang and the Magistrate is truly one of my … Continue reading →

Amazing Long Trailer Released at Arang and the Magistrate Press Conference

A Koala's Playground Posted on August 10, 2012 by ockoalaFebruary 19, 2014

Perfection, thy name is Arang and the Magistrate – also known as “When Lee Jun Ki met Shin Mina and fireworks exploded.” If the long trailer for Faith was like a 7/10 in terms of generating excitement (for the story, not necessarily the splotchy acting I saw), then the long ten-minute trailer for Arang is like a 11/10 in knocking … Continue reading →

4th Teaser for Arang and the Magistrate Provides More Fantastic Sneak Peeks

A Koala's Playground Posted on August 9, 2012 by ockoalaAugust 9, 2012

I’m weeping tears of happiness here for the sheer awesome that will be Arang and the Magistrate. Isn’t the official poster fantastic? Kwang Oh Jung and Hwang Bora makes such awesome expressions of shock and fear that they manage to steal my gaze from the lovely Shin Mina and the glorious Lee Jun Ki. To be sure, I love how … Continue reading →

Arang and the Magistrate Drops New Teaser and More Stills

A Koala's Playground Posted on August 2, 2012 by ockoalaAugust 2, 2012

The upcoming drama tidal wave makes me feel like I’m playing a carnival game that is rigged – I’m going to win a prize no matter what, i.e. there is bound to be a drama that I end up liking. I feel rather like that derpy dog in Up, the one constantly chasing after bones here and there. One minute … Continue reading →

MBC Releases Captivating Third Teaser for Arang and the Magistrate

A Koala's Playground Posted on July 28, 2012 by ockoalaJuly 28, 2012

Jaw. Drop. The third teaser for Arang and the Magistrate is out and before I could deal with my excitement over the upcoming fantasy sageuk drama, I felt like I had my expectations upended. He can touch her. I repeat – Eun Oh the magistrate not only can see Arang, he can touch her. WHAT THE WHAT? Isn’t she a … Continue reading →
