A Koala's Playground Posted on October 24, 2026 by ockoalaOctober 23, 2026

Awwww, this is one of my fave medical J-doramas and the final casting announcement this week just feels like half the wind got sucked out of it. The K-drama adaptation of Unnatural has confirmed that Yoona and Lee Jin Wook will be the leads, with the drama aiming for an early 2027 release. The female lead doctor is such a … Continue reading →

So I’ve not watched a J-dorama in years but one of the last ones I watched was Unnatural back in 2018 starring Ishihara Satomi.

A K-drama adaptation was announced in 2022 … Continue reading →

So this is one of my all time fave medical/forensic/procedural J-doramas and to see it getting a K-drama remake elicits conflicting feelings. On one hand more people will get to know this fantastic story but on the other hand nearly all K-drama remakes of J-doramas fail miserably.

I only watched a few J-doramas this year in 2018 but most of the ones I did made the top 10 list of most highly rated J-doramas on China’s massive Douban platform. With hundreds of thousands of votes, forensic medical dorama Unnatural took top ranking for this year and I totally agree because I was thoroughly addicted. Also on the … Continue reading →

The first batch of 2018 J-doramas have wrapped up as the winter 2018 lineup has all finished airing and the spring 2018 doramas have arrived. I’m still playing catch up on two doramas but for the first that I’ve finished it’s easily a solid win and entertaining from start to end. Forensic medical dorama Unnatural with Ishihara Satomi and Iura … Continue reading →

2018 is still a bits away but I’m already gearing up to check back into J-doramas thanks to a certain adorable charming actress diving into a new project that interests me. After her rumored boyfriend Yamashita Tomohisa put on his white coat (for the third time) in this summer’s highest rated J-dorama with Code Blue 3, it’s Ishihara Satomi‘s turn … Continue reading →
