cdramas (consisting of TVB, ATV, & TWdramas) - 18 years, since I was 4 years old~ Tongue

jdramas - first jdrama was in 1999 - when I watched "Itazura na Kiss" with hardsubbed Chinese subtitles, so it's been about 6.5 years
kdrama- first kdrama - "All About Eve" - in 2000 with Mandarin dubbed. but the dubbing really annoyed me. 6 years and counting. Smile

lmao... Watching the 8 o'clock and 9 o'clock shows on Channel 36 was like, an integral part of familiy life. Always watching HKDramas... *shrugs* But I wasn't actually -into- drama (starting to dl/buy/basically watch seriously) dramas until a couple of months ago. ^^;;So~ Technically, I've seen dramas all my life, but I didn't start watching them seriously until recently. pinch

The first drama I remember watching was GTO, so I probably started in late 1998 or early 1999. I mostly downloaded VCD releases at the beginning. I went for a long time watching only a few episodes here and there. Only really got back into it about 2 years ago.

Well it depends...

I've watched watching Chinese/TW dramas with my parents from time to time. I technically got into them in 1997 after watching HZGG then Cousin Ji Xiang, Dagger Li, Love story in Shanghai etc.

I saw my first Korean drama (Glass Slippers) in 2000 but I didn't really get on the bandwagon until 2002 (Hotelier)

Earlier this year marked my first real venture in J-dramas and I liked them a lot (Gokusen, HYD)

Started watching jdrama in 2004 with the NHK taiga Shinsengumi! because of an interest in the bakumatsu. Got totally hooked the following year watching Toyohara in Densha otoko. Never looked back after that. Smile

Hmm Asian Dramas,

well for Filipino dramas then since 5 yrs old but stopped when my family moved to America when I was 9 yrs old.

There were also chinese dubs in the Philippines and I watched those when I was younger too but not that many.

The time when I got back to really get addicted to Asian dramas is when I watched Sailormoon Live Action (heck I didn't even know it was considered a drama then) and that was around 2003 so for Japanese dramas, it's been 5 years.

As for Korean dramas, my first one was Bright Girl Success Story around 2004 so 4 years ago.

But now I can watch a new drama every week and finish it all quickly as long as its complete.
