For me,the journey began at sailor moon, I had a group of friends in the 9th grade who were really addicted to it, and after the series ended in Canada I looked up resources on the internet and got someone to copy VHS fansub tapes for me. After that, I was really into anime for awhile, but lost inte...

What REALLY gets me is the constant WAITING...... One year later .... some new hair styles and the re-appearance of the lost female lead Three years later -- time it takes to get over a really bad tragedy and get back together before a quick ending. I don't WANT to see three years later, I want the ...

Hmm, I didn't vote because I like both. I think softsubs are pretty good because it doesn't take a super-expert to make them, not that it's easy, but I'm by no means very good with technical stuff and I was able to do it. So I think softsubs give people like me more opportunity to contribute :) Hard...

Re: Things I've Noticed from KDramas
3. One character, A, is flying out and another one, B, rushes to the airport to catch him or her. In spite of both having cellphones, B does not call A to find out A's whereabouts, but, instead, runs around frantically (looking for A). This will normally give A enough time to board before being cau...

GTO/Gokusen.... They're both crap to me! Personally, I don't think teachers should ever interfere with students' personal lives. Watching these school dramas - it gives me the impression that a kid's school plays a huge role in keeping the kid in line. I think this is why Kinpachi Sensei is highly ...

I think it must be based on Wurthering Heights.

International Dramas - what's good in your country?
Since we have such an international scope here at d-addicts, I was curious about shows or dramas from other countries that you think are just as good as Asian dramas. I think many of us a d-addicts who rely on subtitles are pretty open-minded and interested in other cultures - and I know that wherev...

Aren't these threads really old? It doesn't take insight or a genius to find and point out the common tropes in popular K dramas and compare them to whatever, soap operas, romance novels, or else. I can criticize many dramas but their problems aren't the triangles or whatever, so much as it's the w...

K-drama = Soap Opera...my views
OK, so today my guy asked me why I was so addicted to Korean soap Operas... and I was a bit taken aback because I'd never really compared the two before - I didn't make the connection between dramas and soaps, but I think he has a point. I'll list them - I'm going to compare K-dramas to the American...

They may encourage translation into English, li...

Hmm, I'd have to go with both equally; I think that on the whole I prefer K-dramas, especially the recent ones, but I don't speak Korean so I'm limited to those that I've seen subbed. I'm Sorry I love you is a really good example of this. Korean dramas tend to get me hooked, but can be rather predic...

Fansubbers are in some sense directly working for gingertoys2 and that's not a good feeling. What would you do if you were in the midst of fansubbing a show?

I'll jump on the bandwagon - it's awful. As for those purchasing the dramas, I think it's ignorance - they just don't know any better. There are a lot of people who are interested in drama that really don't know anything about the internet, and setting up file sharing programmes like BT is something...
