SETTV Daily Drama Love Cheque Charge with George Hu and Yuan Ai Fei Releases Cute First Teasers

A Koala's Playground Posted on August 29, 2014 by ockoalaAugust 30, 2014

I always welcome a good daily drama which feels like an unassuming watch that takes nothing out of me. Commitment is not needed since one can stop and go without missing much, and it’s perfect as treadmill fodder. In the last few years, the best SETTV daily is probably still Inborn Pair while Love, Now started off promising but that … Continue reading →

George Hu Gets New Leading Lady Yuan Ai Fei for the Cute Daily TW-drama Happiness Voucher

A Koala's Playground Posted on August 15, 2014 by ockoalaAugust 15, 2014

The Taiwan drama gods are listening to my prayers because the third time will not be happening for the popular onscreen coupling of George Hu and Annie Chen. The WeiNi (or Winnie from their names Hu Yu Wei and Chen Ting Ni) couple hit it big for SETTV with the daily Love, Now and tried to recreate the magic with … Continue reading →

In a Good Way Holds Celebratory Wrap Party with the Entire Cast in Attendance

A Koala's Playground Posted on May 1, 2014 by ockoalaMay 1, 2014

While In a Good Way still has a few episodes remaining to air, the cast of the drama has reached the end of the road and it’s time to part ways. The adorable and wonderful cast of IAGW wrapped filming last week and this week held a much deserved wrap party with SETTV footing the celebration bill. Everyone showed up … Continue reading →

Lego Lee Schools His Fellow In A Good Way Leads Over a Game of Badminton

A Koala's Playground Posted on February 5, 2014 by ockoalaFebruary 5, 2014

It’s understandable that Lego Lee is the breakout star of In A Good Way and has reaped the most attention from the cast of the drama. Who the heck doesn’t love Liu Chuan? It’s harder to write female leads and Kirsten Jen‘s Jia En has taken me awhile to fully embrace, and it’s also clear Kirsten needed a bit more time … Continue reading →

In A Good Way Cast Attends SETTV Year End Party Celebrating a Stellar 2013 Drama Year

A Koala's Playground Posted on January 25, 2014 by ockoalaJanuary 25, 2014

It’s not a stretch to say SETTV had the best outing among all the TW-networks in terms of raking in the dough from dramas in 2013. With Lunar New Year right around the corner, the network held it’s annual Year End Party (尾牙) this past Friday that brought together 1600 of its employees from corporate to production to famous stars … Continue reading →

Retrospective of the Four Leads of In A Good Way at Live House Last November

A Koala's Playground Posted on January 16, 2014 by ockoalaJanuary 16, 2014

This is a bit like a wayback machine but the leads of In A Good Way have been red hot ever since the drama premiered two months ago so it’s adorable to find their more low key promotional pics from before the drama aired. Nowadays the fans and the press are itching to scrutinize every interaction between Lego Lee and … Continue reading →

The Leads of In A Good Way Celebrate its Ratings Success and Spop Magazine Cover

A Koala's Playground Posted on January 5, 2014 by ockoalaJanuary 5, 2014

I find myself heaving a sigh of relief that the red hot success of In A Good Way hasn’t affected both its casting chemistry or its story narrative. What’s happened so far with all the characters comes across as planned in advance rather than any wonky rewriting on the fly going on. This past weekend the cast gathered with over … Continue reading →

Selena Jen Makes Surprise Visit to In A Good Way Christmas Party Filming

A Koala's Playground Posted on December 19, 2013 by ockoalaDecember 19, 2013

I don’t know what’s more awkward in this picture above? Kirsten Jen trying to dance climb her In A Good Way leading man Lego Lee, or the fact that while she is doing so her older sister Selena Jen is right there behind her? In terms of fame for the Jen sisters, its no shade on Kirsten to say that … Continue reading →
