Hello ^^

I've been watching dramas and movies since 2009.
My first ever introduction, prior to the addiction :p, into East Asian entertainment was a South Korean movie 'Classic' followed by 'My Sassy Girl' . I hadn't watched any for a year after this as I didn't have the time or proper means to do so in India.

When I moved and had all the freedom XD I was reintroduced to them. Boys over Flowers was my first drama and I have to say I was hooked! This was followed by a Taiwanese drama 'Fated to Love You'. And so, started my marathons of dramas and movies, delving deep into a culture with which I found a few similarities to my own.

I'm quiet glad I found this forum as it's difficult to explain to others why and how much I love Asian dramas. It's nice to meet others with whom I can have a discussion about the series or movies and also get to know what to watch next xD.

My all time favourites are:
Boys over Flowers
I'm a Cyborg, but that's ok
Mary stayed out all Night
Koizora
Yamato Nadeshiko Shichi Henge
LIAR GAME

Current Favorites:
Reply 1997

    Sure am! I am looking forward to finishing this month's movie challenge. I have only 2 movie left-Ran (1985 Japanese) and 13 Assassins. Both are historical. Not my favourite genre but I am looking forward to watching it because of the challenge.

    Darn you RL for getting in the way of our dramas XD LOL ah you caught me, yes :P I've been drama-binging this past week (: I finished TWTWB and both seasons of HYD :D I'm still not sure if I should be proud or ashamed >.<
  • Chappelle 2 days ago
    Of course :D I just finished it and I was tearing up so bad :P as for TWTWB I finished it as well (: it only took me a few days XD ...how about you? did you finish the Taiwanese drama you were watching?

    Love Exposure was unconventional and outrageous. This movie went beyond what I expected. It unraveled many taboos in Asian dramas/films. I was surprised to see many inappropriate scenes. Nevertheless, I enjoyed it. I'm gonna watch 13 Assassins tonight. Can't wait. xD

    Yeah you're right, it also took me a while, but he gets really lovable :D I think in the Japanese version he's a little dumber than Gu Jun Pyo and the F4 don't seem as filthy rich as in BOF :P I never really rooted for Hanazawa Rui either, like in BOF there were a few times I did want Jihoo to win over GJP: 'take that you jerk!' - ah yeah! in BOF the mom was just powerful and cold, but in HYD she's a straight up witch, and the background song they give her makes her seem not much less heartless than Cruella De'Ville XD

    I finally got around to watch Hana Yori Dango 2005 (: I'm so surprised I never did, it's great! I guess I just love the story but I'm crushing on Domyouji :D Korean/Japanese he's still the lovable idiot XD

    I started watching Love Exposure. I'll let you know how I think of it.

    It was depressing, disturbing, mind-blowing, and rather hurtful to see these disabled children being sexually abused and physically abused by these awful people. I'm surprised that this is based on true events. I thought I can believe in human beings, however there are ones who truly should not live on this planet. It's despicable and shocking to find out that these events happened in the early 2000's. Some of the characters still lives today.

    I KNOW! I watch with the timed comments, people are so funny XD I wish I could be having a conversation with them because the things they say have me busting out laughing X_X - Chappelle is my last name (:

    I recommend My P.S. Partner if you're looking for mature romance and comedy movie. Sometimes you can sick of the teenage romance (just a simple kiss), watch these movies to get a cure. I'm currently watching The Crucible tonight. I'll let you know how it is. Hmmm...The Princess' Stand In. I might watch that drama in June. That's true especially if you have a lot of work to be done.

    Summer is the longest because it's 3 months! I'd go crazy at home if I got off with nothing to do, so 3 weeks is okay (still a bit guilty) then I'm off to be productive XD I could have done something more related to my field, but I wanted to be a scientist so I'll take advantage of small science related activities I can get into before I have to commit 100% to nursing - VIKI ^^ lately that's what I mostly use, Dramacrazy's quality isn't as good, and Hulu has too many commercials :P as for TWTWB, I'm already on ep. 10! the story plot is sad, but it has many cute moments...I never cried or felt totally sorry/sad until this past 10th ep. where s***'s starting to go down but other people might think differently and say that the story's lead characters are very pitiful - it's slow so there's not much to be anxious or on the edge of your seat about - I love that it's artsy and lovely ^^

    No worries (: I finally finished school last week and will be headed home for 2 weeks, then I'm off to Cali to work as a summer school teacher aid :D *blech* RL needs to stop getting in the way of our drama schedule XD -I'm on ep.15 of K2H but that's because I also started watching School 2013 and TWTWB XD - that drama sounds interesting, are you enjoying it so far? sounds alright, sometimes cheesy-cliche is what we need ^^ plastic surgery? that's pretty bold, the only thing I watched where they boldly discussed this issue was 200 Pound Beauty, everything else just make it seem like beautiful people just pop out of the ground and is the most natural thing in Asia XD

    lol. It seems like you're busy with work nowadays. For me, I am busy completing my college years in accounting. I am actually doing Monthly Movie Challenge. This month's genre is Mature. Today, I watched My P.S. Partner. I really enjoyed this type of movie since I watch a lot of the action/thriller genre. I'm thinking of starting Petty Romance tonight. However, I need to see how much time I have left in order to decide on whether I'll watch the movie or not. What drama are you watching currently?
  • AmandaMarta 8 days ago
    Not a problem :) Any new challenges lately? I'm doing a monthly genre movie challenge. Check it out on my profile page.
