Official Posters for Jackpot Showcase the Contrasting Visuals of Jang Geun Seok and Yeo Jin Gu

A Koala's Playground Posted on March 9, 2016 by ockoalaMarch 8, 2016
Young man in traditional South Korean attire.

Even though the two male leads of SBS sageuk drama Jackpot (Daebak) are exactly 10 years apart, with Jang Geun Seok born in 1987 and Yeo Jin Gu in 1997, I have a good feeling the age gap won’t be a distraction onscreen when they play rivals. The production released two official drama posters each featuring the up close face … Continue reading →

Intensity Galore in New Stills and Teaser for SBS Sageuk Jackpot

A Koala's Playground Posted on March 7, 2016 by ockoalaMarch 7, 2016

More daebak teasers from upcoming SBS Mon-Tues drama Jackpot and the intense eye stares has certainly shot through the roof. The production unveiled new drama stills of the veteran actors Choi Min Soo and Jeon Kwang Ryul, in a reunion from Warrior Baek Dong Soo, and both seem right at home in their roles. Choi Min Soo especially seems to … Continue reading →

Bromance and Intensity at the Script Reading for SBS Sageuk Jackpot

A Koala's Playground Posted on March 3, 2016 by ockoalaMarch 3, 2016
Two men smiling and embracing together.

The drama hasn’t even aired yet and already the bromance has brewed offscreen. That’s good since the two male leads will be direct antagonists in upcoming SBS sageuk Jackpot, better like each other during filming and then ratchet up the acting animosity when cameras roll. SBS kinda did the roll out a bit backwards with Jackpot, it dropped the first … Continue reading →

Jang Geun Seok and Yeo Jin Gu are Intense and Angry in First Teaser for Jackpot

A Koala's Playground Posted on March 1, 2016 by ockoalaMarch 1, 2016
Four intense characters in dramatic scenes.

SBS pull back a bit of the curtain today to offer a glimpse at upcoming Mon-Tues sageuk drama Jackpot (Daebak), which signals that long running Six Flying Dragons is ending soon as well as the coming return of Jang Geun Seok in period costume. The latter is the most shallow of reasons to watch Jackpot but for me one of the … Continue reading →

Daebak with Jang Geun Seok and Lim Ji Yeon Holds Script Reading and Starts Filming for Late March Premiere on SBS

A Koala's Playground Posted on February 4, 2016 by ockoalaFebruary 4, 2016

It was a mere hop skip from casting to production for upcoming SBS Mon-Tues drama Daebak (Jackpot). The drama premieres at the end of March on the 28th so with less than two months to go it’s a good sign that the filming is nicely underway, especially being a sageuk drama that needs higher levels of prepping. The full cast … Continue reading →

Orange Marmalade with Yeo Jin Gu, Seolhyun, and Lee Jong Hyun Drops Poster and More Stills

A Koala's Playground Posted on May 8, 2015 by ockoalaMay 8, 2015
Two students sitting close on a subway.

I’m still interested in KBS Friday night drama Orange Marmalade, the less high profile of the upcoming KBS Friday night drama offering next to the experimental Producer. It’s going to be so weird to have both dramas premiering on the same night one after the other. Orange Marmalade interests me from the manhwa source material side, I still read so … Continue reading →

Watching a talented child actor growing up nicely from age-appropriate roles is a treat for sure, but the real test comes with the first lead role that requires carrying the whole show and seamlessly tradition to being all grown up. Yeo Jin Gu is as ready as it gets with his upcoming KBS drama Orange Marmalade, after having done a few … Continue reading →

Orange Marmalade Looks Promising with First Pretty Stills of the Three Leads

A Koala's Playground Posted on March 19, 2015 by ockoalaMarch 19, 2015
Young woman in school outfits, thoughtful expressions.

Now this is what I consider an all-around good looking casting. The first stills are out for the three leads of upcoming KBS Friday night drama Orange Marmalade and I’m liking what I see. Yeo Jin Gu, Seolhyun of AOA and CNBLUE‘s Lee Jong Hyun are shown in character wearing high school uniforms and all look quite convincing, with the former … Continue reading →

Orange Marmalade Starts Filming and Song Jong Ho Joins the Vampire Side

A Koala's Playground Posted on March 18, 2015 by ockoalaMarch 27, 2015
Actors at a group meeting and discussion.

The casting and time slot for upcoming KBS high school vampire drama Orange Marmalade feels like an optimistic win-win. Growing up nicely child actor Yeo Jin Gu gets his first drama leading man role that is age appropriate rather than shoving him into adult scenarios while the Friday night low key time slot isn’t too much pressure on him to deliver … Continue reading →

Seolhyun and Lee Jong Hyun Confirmed for Orange Marmalade with Yeo Jin Gu

A Koala's Playground Posted on March 2, 2015 by ockoalaMarch 2, 2015

KBS is making all the waves the last few days as it went on a veritable drama casting spree. First there was Song Joong Ki signed up nice and early as the leading man for the fall Wed-Thurs drama Descendants of the Sun, followed by whiplash inducing back-and-forth to line up potential foursome Cha Tae Hyun, Gong Hyo Jin, Kim … Continue reading →

Yeo Jin Gu Confirmed for KBS Friday Night Drama Orange Marmalade

A Koala's Playground Posted on February 24, 2015 by ockoalaFebruary 24, 2015

Now that Yeo Jin Gu is confirmed for upcoming KBS Friday night drama Orange Marmalade, I’m for sure going to check it out regardless of who the other leads end up being. It’ll be his first leading man role after a decade of being the most famous K-drama male child actor of his generation. Better yet is having him play … Continue reading →

KBS Sets Orange Marmalade with AOA’s Seolhyun, Yeo Jin Gu, and Lee Jong Hyun for Next Fri Drama

A Koala's Playground Posted on February 10, 2015 by ockoalaMarch 27, 2015

I wonder how long the KBS Friday night drama experiment will keep going considering it’s now had two consecutive ratings and reception busts. The time slot was transitioned to airing dramas starting with Hi School: Love On! with Kim Sae Ron acting opposite two idol newbie actors in Infinite‘s Woohyun and Sungyeol. Next came the currently airing mommy issues with … Continue reading →
