fanqed · Post by **fanqed** » May 30th, '05, 20:57

I'm new to this site, and Asian dramas for that matter, but I'm hooked now! I've only seen Taiwanese dramas, or rather I'm currently watching, Peach Girl and Mars. Mainly because they were mangas. Though, I believe I'll be watching hell of a lot more since I found this awesome site! =D

First Kdrama was back in high school... Autumn Tale/Story. I just needed to record it for someone, but I ended up watching it anyway. I liked it, but surprisingly I never watched a full drama again until college a few years later (with Phoenix and I soon discovered this website). Cdrama... not yet. As for Jdrama, I'm pretty sure that's GTO (if it's even considered a drama...), which I watched last summer.

happy_heart · Post by **happy_heart** » Jun 7th, '05, 19:22

first kdrama i watched ... "sad love story"

by accident too. my brother was flipping channels coz there's nothing to watch on directv so then he saw this korean drama and started watching it. he saw ep8 and told me its really good. so the next week ep9, i decided to see how it really goes and there i was hooked on tv screaming to joon-young that hae-na is in the rooftop of the hospital and i thought he was going to see her... damn that scenes was breathtaking...

ahahha. can u tell im newbie? lolz

The first dorama I watched was "The Three Tokugawa Generations", but I only saw some last five episodes. Hojo Tokimune was the first full dorama I watched. Gosh, I adored that one.

I've watched them all since except Musashi in 2003, oh and I missed Shinsengumi (sp?). I would have loved to watch Shinsengumi though.

I've never watched Korean and Chinese dramas, though.

First J-Drama: Strawberry on the Shortcake, causing me to fall in love with Uchiyama Rina.

Sucks that she's not in too many dramas... Only seen her in Bus Stop, Moto Kare and SOS.

First K-Drama: Loving You. A lot of people don't like Eugene, but I think she's great! I hated the ending of this drama, though.

Moonlight12 · Post by **Moonlight12** » Jun 23rd, '05, 17:03

My first kdrama was Full House, but I only watched like from 10-14... but I'm trying to watch all now!

My first jdrama was Pretty Guardian Sailor Moon.... if that counts.... its more like a tokusatsu meets drama.

And my first pinoy drama was Krystala!

A few years ago, I saw Glass Shoes, as a rented Cantonese dub.

I thought it was kind of stupid, until I unexpectedly broke out in tears over one of the characters.

I didn't actively start watching k-dramas until late last year, starting with Attic Cat and Let's Go To School, Sang-Doo!

dustyneko · Post by **dustyneko** » Jul 5th, '05, 06:20

First Kdrama: Winter Sonata.

First Jdorama: Wow, maybe 20-25 years ago, so I can't remember exactly, but I did see "danjyou shichinin monogatari" with Akashiya Sanma. I sure wish I could see it again with Eng subtitles. I wish they would rebroadcast classics like that again.

Kamitzu · Post by **Kamitzu** » Jul 5th, '05, 18:16

The first drama I watched was Kdrama Winter Sonata. ^ ^
It's just that it is too sad

I think I shouldn't watch sad dramas 'cos I always start crying ^ ^;;

Then, first Jdrama I watched was Water Boys. It is the funniest series I have ever
seen

I just couldn't stop laughing, and Takayuki Yamada is really cute in that

and first chinese (tw I think) drama I watched was Crimson Sabre

My first J drama was either GTO or Summer Snow. I can't remember which

K drama....Autumn Tale (though I still have yet to finish it)

The first C drama I can remember watching while growing up was Dragon Sword (not sure if it counts as a drama though)

DragoonKain3 · Post by **DragoonKain3** » Jul 8th, '05, 01:36

First drama ever was Seija no Koushin about a year ago I saw over at tokyotosho. It wasn't the best thing I have ever watched, but it was still a great blessing, as I was introduced to not only Sakai Noriko but Hirosue Ryoko as well. While a lot of people would remember Hirosue as the 'innocent' girl, I liked her more 'evil' role (Really loved the line 'Give it back!') in comparison to her other ones, which incidentally made me really love her role in Moto Kare.

First K-drama I watched was Autumn Tale, which is only because it is the first k-drama series I have found with 5+ seeders for every file. And first thing came to my mind was wow, the scenery was very good. Second thing was that child!Eun-suh was a pretty damn good actress for her age (Any one know what her real name is and what other drama's she's in?). Third thing was that Song Hye Gyo was really REALLY pretty.

Oddly enough, I never finished both dramas. Seija no Koushin on hindsight, in comparison to other dramas I have watched, was really bad. Characterization of the disabled really bugged me even today. In Autumn tale, I still have to watch the last 6 episodes; I really liked the main characters together and since I sense something breaking them up in the future, I can't seem to watch the end.

Yes, a lot us have seen it and you can get this drama on jtv (they sub dramas using DVD quality version and put English hardsubs in them).

It's a great drama and I can never get tomoko yamaguchi out of my head at time since she played her role really well (this also goes to the supporting cast and kimutaku). If you ever want more dramas that you don't find here, you can go to here or here.

TNF · Post by **TNF** » Jul 8th, '05, 04:21

First cdrama- when I was like what 3? (first one that I could remember), hkdramas
first kdrama- All About Eve
first jdrama- A million Stars Fall from the Sky

I didn't really like jdramas that much b/c the ppl aren't nearly as hot as the ppl in kdramas and cdramas, until my second jdrama Mukodono, when I found the hottest man alive

(naga-kun). Then I started chasing after all his dramas, and now I've collected most of his dramas.

aldonia · Post by **aldonia** » Jul 9th, '05, 01:16

Kou Kou Kyoushi 2003. It's what got me into j-drama, not to mention Aya Ueto. I actually downloaded it on a whim, not thinking I'd like it, but once I saw the first episode it was like a drug or something. It was torture waiting for the new episodes to come out ;-;! I don't think I've watched another drama yet that's gotten me so emotional, maybe I just have a high standard after watching it or something. ;b

With Love...

I was just flipping through the channels and stopped on the international channel. I didn't really know what it was, but it looked like a soap, so... my normal "guy instincts" immediately kicked in and I was just about to change the channel. Then the Once In a Blue Moon melody played... so much longing and want and hope... I ended up watching the rest of the show and tuning in until the end. I was extremely happy to find the torrent here!

Other's have mentioned GTO. I'm a big fan of the anime series and I hear good things about the jdrama, so I'm trying to download it right now.

Kumaxell · Post by **Kumaxell** » Jul 20th, '05, 18:56

The first K drama has to be Autumn's Tale. I couldn't believe the guy's parents cruelly abandoned the girl to her own device when they were well aware the condition of her true family.

The first J drama is definitely Long Vacation (anything prior to it, I was too young to remember.) Because of this drama, I feel that younger men are way more attractive than older ones.

The first C drama is Tale of White Snake (1990's Taiwan version). I am totally in love with the musical. Ah... if only I can sing.

"Okane ga nai"

"No Money" or I guess "Escape from Poverty"

Okane ga nai was my first j-drama. Before that, I watched a few dubbed chinese, thai, and i think indian (not sure though) dramas. They were dubbed (horribly i might add) in my native language and all were loooong. We would have suitcases of VHS tapes.

Later in High School, my japanese teacher showed us "Okane ga nai" and I became hooked on dramas. The opening and ending songs still ring in my head. Our class watched it every fridays, and everytime he would stop the tape, our class would always freak out since it would be a cliffhanger.

The second drama he showed us was "Hitotsu yane no shita" and a few others. I took a break after graduating from high school from dramas, and later in college, got hooked again after watching GTO (watched drama after reading manga and anime).

EJKat · Post by **EJKat** » Jul 26th, '05, 13:01

Okane Ga Nai -- we loved that show!

We moved while it was showing so we ended up not being able to tape it (although we did see all but one episode). It was given the english title "I have no money!" here. I even bought the single, Doot, which was used throughout the show.

The first drama we watched from start to finish was Ano hi ni kaeritai (Return to yesterday). Didn't end up being one of my favorites but I'll always have fondness for it because it was first show we saw every episode of. Wow, that was....a looooong time ago.
