So Ji Sub to Make Cameo Appearance in Warm and Cozy

A Koala's Playground Posted on May 7, 2015 by ockoalaMay 7, 2015

After sitting on the second teaser for the Hong sisters upcoming K-drama Warm and Cozy, I actually like it more the second and third times I watched the short snippet. I still think the official drama posters are so underwhelming and perfunctory as to be an insult to the leads Kang Sora and Yoo Yeon Seok, being told to pose … Continue reading →

So Ji Sub Cameos in Upcoming Sageuk Movie Sado with Yoo Ah In and Song Kang Ho

Big star cameos in dramas and movies happen regularly, with the practice of either touting it beforehand or letting the audience be pleasantly surprised when watching the final cut. I’m fine with way, and in the case of finished filming sageuk movie Sado, the production has elected to reveal that leading man So Ji Sub will be doing a critical … Continue reading →

Original Screenwriter of In Time With You Picks Her Ideal Korean Leads for the Remake

A Koala's Playground Posted on December 23, 2014 by ockoalaDecember 23, 2014

I’ve always found famed Taiwan screenwriter Mag Hsu an intelligent and thoughtful scribe. Her most famous drama is likely In Time With You, but over the years she’s written many well-received works such as Mars, Silence, An Innocent Mistake, and most recently Apple in Your Eye. With news that her In Time With You was going to be remade into … Continue reading →

First Charming Teaser for Web Drama One Sunny Day with So Ji Sub and Kim Ji Won

A Koala's Playground Posted on December 19, 2014 by ockoalaDecember 19, 2014

I was pretty nonchalant about the news last month that So Ji Sub was doing web drama filming in Jeju. I’ve enjoyed his dramas in the past and The Master’s Sun was definitely yet another career high point for him, but he’s notoriously unpredictable when it comes to picking his acting projects so it’s no surprise that he followed up … Continue reading →

So Ji Sub and Kim Ji Won Couple Up for Online Drama Set on Jeju Island

A Koala's Playground Posted on November 10, 2014 by ockoalaNovember 10, 2014

This will come as great news to So Ji Sub fans, whether long-standing or newer ones after his fantastic turn in The Master’s Sun, thinking he is likely not doing any acting this year since all the remaining year end K-dramas have been cast. Surprising news dropped today that So Ji Sub has been in Jeju Island for the last … Continue reading →

So Ji Sub Releases New Rap Song Dedicated to His 18 Years in K-ent

A Koala's Playground Posted on June 30, 2014 by ockoalaJune 29, 2014

There are various feelings that So Ji Sub‘s just released new rap single elicits from me. The track is called “18 Years” and is a So Ji Sub rap ode to his eighteen years in the entertainment industry. The lyrics were self-written to express thoughts and feelings he’s not able able to share during his long tenure as a K-actor … Continue reading →

So Ji Sub Models Watches for High Cut and Plans to Release New Hip-hop Album at the End of June

A Koala's Playground Posted on June 7, 2014 by ockoalaJune 6, 2014

The Summer of 2014 will mark the first time in two years that So Ji Sub doesn’t have a Summer drama lined up. In 2012 there was Ghost (Phantom) and last year in 2013 who can forget The Master’s Sun. I’m pretty bummed about it because I’ve gotten used to So Ji Sub as a cool lollipop on a hot … Continue reading →

SBS 2013 Year End Drama Awards

A Koala's Playground Posted on December 31, 2013 by ockoalaDecember 31, 2013

With Lee Bo Young winning the Daesang at the 2013 SBS Year End Drama Awards, this caps off an actress sweep of the Daesangs across all three major networks. Her drama I Hear Your Voice was both a ratings hit for SBS and very well received by critics and audiences alike so in addition to Lee Bo Young her co-star … Continue reading →

The Master’s Sun Delivers a Big Twist in Episode 12 Mashed Up from Three Other Dramas

A Koala's Playground Posted on September 12, 2013 by ockoalaSeptember 12, 2013

I don’t know why I bothered, but over the Summer I read Dan Brown’s latest Inferno and it was as painstakingly researched as his prior hits like The Da Vinci Code but equally as soulless as the follow up to that The Lost Symbol. The man is a talented gripping writer for sure, but he’s sunk to the depths of … Continue reading →

Gong Hyo Jin and So Ji Sub Elevate their Chemistry with an Upcoming Kiss for The Master’s Sun

A Koala's Playground Posted on September 3, 2013 by ockoalaSeptember 3, 2013

A kiss is a-coming in The Master’s Sun. Does a kiss make everything better? If the participants are So Ji Sub and Gong Hyo Jin, then the answer would be “oh you betcha!” I actually think TMS is getting comparatively better, but all my initial opinions stand and my gripes are merely lessened somewhat as the story glides on a … Continue reading →

New OTP Bed Stills and Preview for Episode 1 of The Master’s Sun

A Koala's Playground Posted on August 3, 2013 by ockoalaAugust 2, 2013

My anticipation for The Master’s Sun can be framed as if I’m on a dating website and finds what seems like a perfect match. Looks great on paper, looks great in pictures, sounds fantastic on the phone, write marvelously in emails. All that is left is the in-person meet and greet, so what could go possibly go wrong? Aside from … Continue reading →

The Master’s Sun Releases Possibly the Best Long Preview EVER

A Koala's Playground Posted on July 31, 2013 by ockoalaJuly 31, 2013

Yup, there is no mincing words here, gotta call it like I see it. The Master’s Sun held a press conference yesterday and released a long 12-minute preview for the drama. I was all ready to write about the sartorial misses of the cast, but then I watched the long preview and every single thought flew out the window other … Continue reading →
