After a one turn of the leading lady roulette it’s settled on a more familiar drama face to join So Ji Sub in his upcoming drama Terius Behind Me. K-actress Yoo In Na is stepping back into leading lady territory after Lee Yoo Young was first offered the role, toggling between first and second female lead in a string of … Continue reading →

With the Answer Me series going successively earlier in time it’s easy to forget that the first installment did a relatively recent nostalgia trip to 1997. Upcoming KBS Fri-Sat drama Go Back Spouses will return to that era of the late 90’s as unhappily married lead characters played by Son Ho Joon and Jang Nara time-travel back to 1999 when … Continue reading →

The VIP movie premiere for the Yoo Hae Jin and Lee Joon identity swapping movie Luck-Key is a quite a treat for the adoring fans in attendance as many big names showed up. My favorite squee moment was seeing Kim Sun Ah at the same event as her two most iconic drama male leads, Hyun Bin from My Name is … Continue reading →

Season 4 of Three Meals a Day Sends Fishing Village Cast Plus Nam Joo Hyuk to Gochang Countryside

A Koala's Playground Posted on June 18, 2016 by ockoalaJune 17, 2016
Four people farming in a lush green field.

I love Three Meals a Day, its a reality show that conceptually shouldn’t work because it sounds so boring, yet with the right cast, guest stars, and deft directing the entire endeavor comes off as a warm soothing meal for the jaded soul. It brings audiences into a simpler world and serves to humanize the Korean stars appearing in the … Continue reading →

Joo Won Takes Home the Daesang for Yongpal at the 2015 SBS Drama Awards

A Koala's Playground Posted on December 31, 2015 by ockoalaJanuary 1, 2016

The SBS 2015 Drama Awards wraps up the trio of year end big K-drama awards shows, and while network was the overall ratings winner for the year the selections for its awards were somewhat underwhelming. Joo Won took home the Daesang for his performance in Yongpal, which I actually liked and now makes me not blah about him, but it … Continue reading →

The 2015 Mnet Asian Music Awards (MAMA) took place this week in Hong Kong, gathering together the popular Korean stars of music and acting. It’s basically Hallyu-palooza staged by Korean entertainment conglomerate CJ E&M. The lead up has been pretty hyped since one K-star after another was snapped at the airport leaving to attend the ceremony. The fashion was decent … Continue reading →

The Fact Snaps Kim So Eun on Late Night Date with Son Ho Joon

A Koala's Playground Posted on February 8, 2015 by ockoalaFebruary 8, 2015

This so-called breaking dating news almost seems inevitable and bound to elicit angry fan reaction based on other recent developments, yet at the same time it’s still just two happy people dating which is never a bad thing. Tabloid fixture The Fact (formerly Sports Seoul) has just released photo evidence of resurgent popular K-actress Kim So Eun out on a late … Continue reading →

Jo In Sung Wins the Daesang at the 2014 APAN Star Awards

A Koala's Playground Posted on November 16, 2014 by ockoalaNovember 16, 2014

I posted two weeks ago about the nominees for the 2014 APAN Star Awards and how some choices were pretty legit while others strangely unfathomable. Pretty much the usual when it comes to acting awards in Korean drama entertainment. Last night the ceremony was held and this time I totally approve as Jo In Sung walked away with the Daesang … Continue reading →

The first big music-themed K-drama is right around the corner as Big Man wrapped up this week and Lovers of Music (Trot Lovers) readies itself for an upcoming Monday night premiere. KBS has been doing a decent job of toggling around genres when lining up its dramas and a fun rom-com will be a nice treat from the mostly serious … Continue reading →

Lovers in Music Showcases the Colorful Cast Led by Ji Hyun Woo and Jung Eun Ji

A Koala's Playground Posted on June 4, 2014 by ockoalaJune 4, 2014

Seeing the official stills of all the leads in the upcoming Lovers of Music (Trot Lovers) makes me want to yell “Avengers Assemble”, with music lovers substituting for Avengers of course. It’s just three weeks away from the premiere of what is billed as a musical rom-com success story starring Ji Hyun Woo, Jung Eun Ji, Shin Sung Rok, Lee … Continue reading →

Trot Lovers Gets English Title Lovers of Music and Releases First Script Reading Stills

A Koala's Playground Posted on May 26, 2014 by ockoalaMay 26, 2014

Guh, I can’t stand it! How can the main cast of the upcoming KBS Mon-Tues drama Lovers of Music (literal Korean title Trot Lovers) look this cute already in the script reading stills? This one is promising on the very premise that it’s both a rom-com (yay!) and one of those underdog success stories (double yay!) and even better that … Continue reading →
