How did you get introduced to K-Drama?

For me it was our flight to NY 2 yrs ago, to spend a 2 weeks vacation, my niece brought her mom's laptop (she's only 11 ),since it was a 5 hrs. flight and I was seated behind her, my eyes got hook with interest . She's watching GOONG, downloaded all 23? episodes. Imagine I am 43 yrs. at that time , every time we get back from sightseeing & tours, my nieces & I we're all hook-up in the screen. My younger siblings thought I'm getting crazy, bec. we go to bed
very late.. Since we came back to LA, at work, everytime I happened to have a Korean patient, I ask about if she knows this &that drama.. One lady patient told me, Im not alone to get addicted to drama, she knows some mature friends and they're hook too. My 24 yr. old daughter enrolled me to the gym, bec. everytime she leaves the house she sees me in my room watching, and come back after a few hours still in my room hook to the computer.
This is what you call drama addict.

My kdrama addiction began several months ago when I heard The Devil OST.I liked it so much that it made me download the drama just to see what's it like.And I loved it .Even now it is still my favorite drama among all I've seen. That's how I got hooked.
Right now I'm researching and downloading older kdramas and I'm trying to keep up with the new ones that are coming out.But it's very difficult because I still have to find time to watch jdramas, twdramas, cdramas...(yeah, I'm an addict Smile

[img][color=cyan][b]Ok so I am a 50+ year old male, living outside of NYC and this is my first post. There we were looking for some decent programming last summer and happened to tune in to High as the Sky. At first it was dificult to follow along and my wife and I would giggle at some of the translations as well as the smacking. We love when people smack each other. When High as the sky ended, we continued to watch Likeable or Not ( I hate you but it's fine) and absolutely love this show too.
One minor complaint is when the show airs in NY. It comes on at 9:20pm (2120) every M-F which gives us a 20 minutes of dead time to either find something quick or tune in to something for 20 half the show. We usually run and take the dog out and prepare some snacks.
All in all, we love the show and find it hard not to view the spoilers, only wish I knew more Korean!!

Thanks to American daytime tv being so bad, I ended up on the Imaginasian and AZN channels while home sick with bronchitis. I ended up sitting through Goong, Emperor of the Sea, and Full House and ever since then I have been hooked. Wub

I love Korean Dramas thanks to my friend Randy...
He let me borrow his "MyGirl" dvd set and that was it...
"Full House" "Goong" "Winter Sonata"....too many to mention!

Tragedy & Heartache are 2 things that make K-Dramas so great!
