Every time I think K-actress Park Min Young has grown too tried and true for me, doing nonstop dramas and her roles start to blend one into the other, that’s when she surprises me. Marry My Husband was a big surprise hit two years ago, and now I think she has a shot to surprise again with the upcoming tvN … Continue reading →

That’s great for her and … Continue reading →

A Koala's Playground Posted on August 14, 2023 by ockoalaAugust 13, 2023
Confrontation between two intense characters.

This is either how bad Disney+ is with promos or this drama just slipped so far under the radar it was in another time zone because I legit was like what is this when I heard it got scheduled for airing.

There was the biggest star walk on Friday night at the 2023 Baeksang Awards but the next day a large contingent also paraded through for the Louis Vuitton fashion show in Seoul. To say it was underwhelming is an understatement, outfits range from unmemorable and inoffensive to wildly unappealing.

Action-packed poster for "Bad and Crazy."

Upcoming tvN drama Bad and Crazy has been coy about what the correlation or relation between the titular bad and crazy two male leads will be but it’s hard not to jump right into the Fight Club references especially since the promos play it up.

Upcoming tvN Fri-Sat drama feels like a good combination of momentum, pairing up leading man Lee Dong Wook with rising star actor Wi Ha Joon in a drama synopsis that reads a bit like Fight Club.
