Studying in university to get my masters degree. Meanwhile helping to organize a jazz festival - pays nothing, but it's fun and I get lots of useful experience.

wrt ratings of 16.4 being disappointing. Keep in mind, the HanaKimi timeslot, Tue @ 2100, is not as popular as Mon @ 2100. A 15 is considered low for Mon @ 2100, whereas the last time Tue@2100 broke 15 was with Aya Ueto's Attention Please in Spring 2006. 3 of the 4 dramas since averaged around a ra...

The torrent file downloaded in like 2 hours for me, but it won't play on my computer - no picture just sound. :cry: I was kind of dreading it would be like that from the resolution I saw it had. Oh well, I'll be seeding it for a few hours so at least those who don't have an ojiichan for a computer c...

I love this thread. :mrgreen: It was funny before, but now that Densha Otoko appeared I think it stepped up a level on the ladder of hilarity. Random nipple-squeeze? Seriously? That's scary. :blink Actually, there is a story behind the nipple-squeeze statement. I never drop my clothes in public. I'...

A junior falling for a senior? How much of an age difference are we talking here? If it's, for example, 3 years apart then, sure, that seems like a great difference when you're in your teens, but later you can end up dating someone who would've been your senior in school without even batting an eye....

Veoh has its uses, but personally I have to agree with groink on this, in particular his first argument. It wouldn't be good to attract that kind of attention. And you need to respect the fansubber's wishes as well.

Sorry, kidding.

Your post just made me laugh really hard. Probably because I actually know guys who think like that.

Pekana

I watched it and I liked it. Very much in fact. As I've read about half of the manga I could tell that they've made changes in the sequence of events, but I didn't mind it at all. As someone stated before, this is a 12 episode drama so it should have a faster pace than a 23 volume manga. The charact...

I've never been mistaken for a guy and I would never ever want to be mistaken for one, no matter if I'm being perceived as a cute guy. I would think that something was wrong with either my appearance or the person's eyesight.

Pekana

The manga was quite cute and I'm hoping the drama will be fun to watch. I think they made a good choice in casting Maki and Shun as the leads. Imho, from the crop of the young Jdrama actors these two are amongst the more promissing ones. I was rather surprised to read that some people thought Horiki...

xtig3r, you look like a character from a gangster drama in that first pic!

And I mean that in the best possible way. Cool pics.

Beginning of the 90's "Point Break" - it was a tough competition between Patrick Swayze and Keanu Reeves. Keanu Reeves won out in the end. Hey, for a 9 year old I had fairly good taste. :lol As for Asian actors, I discovered Asian drama not so long ago. I'm not as impressionable anymore. S...

Aww, a Swedish troll. Always wondered if they existed and now I know.

Pekana

Of course I do have a (short) list of what I look for in girls: - The ability to cook (or the willingness to learn from my mom!). - Buy me a shirt every now and then, my wardrobe becomes stale without a girl around. - Be very huggable! Nothing turns me off faster than a person who responds to a hug...

This sure is a tenacious thread. And to think that it all started back in August 19, 2006 with someone asking for a certain Korean phrase to write on a T-shirt. Obviously, there are a lot of girls who wouldn't mind having a Korean boyfriend. Count me in, as long as he's a non-smoker and has a good p...

I think nowadays plastic surgery is nothing out of the ordinary in any industry that relies heavily on looks. The Japanese entertainment industry is surely no exception. The media likes to point its finger at celebrities that have allegedly had plastic surgery, and the internet is full of sites with...

My parents are sensible people and I love and respect them. If ever a situation like that arises, I'd listen to what they have to say, but that's as far as it goes. The decision whether to marry or not would be mine and only mine to make.

Pekana

In the end in any relationship there will be obstacles, compromises, adjustments to be made, conflicts and a lot of learning to do on both sides. So personally, I don't care what skin tone or eye colour or how much hair on his arms my loved one would have as long as our basic values and perspectives...

I see enough people have viewed this topic, but no one has commented yet. Probably because this is a very sensitive subject. Well, I can't say that Japan's position on thi is surprising. I've yet to see a country that would willingly and without heavy proof and international pressure admit to its pa...

Pekana

That list gave me a good laugh.

Yes, Kdramas have a lot of cliches and repetitive plotlines, but I still can't help watching them even though there are things I find overly predictable and melodramatic. Still, Kdramas cater to my romantic cravings perfectly.

Pekana

Wow, there are lots of good-looking people on D-addicts. Everyone's so purty!

Pekana

My three wishes:

1. Love - to love and be loved by the person that I love, happily ever after style
2. Health - good health is very important
3. Money - a lot of money makes living more comfortable

My biggest turn-off right now would have to be guys that are too introverted and can't hold a normal conversation. I'm pretty shy myself, but if a guy on a date asks me something I try to come up with more than monosyllabic answers. When the responsibility of keeping the conversation going is entire...

Pekana

I'd have to go with Jdrama as my number one choice, but Kdrama is a close second. Like a lot of others have stated, Jdrama wins over Kdarma when it comes to the storyline. I find that Jdramas just offer more variety and they aren't as draggy as Kdramas. On the other hand, I prefer watching Kdramas w...

Pekana

I don't fastforward when I watch dramas, even if some bits get draggy. I guess I could agree with TrevorGod on this - if I decide to watch a series I'm already prepared beforehand to invest time. I could never watch a drama by fastforwarding because I'd inevitably feel like I've missed some importan...

Pekana

If the Korean guy in question would be kind, reliable, open-minded and with a good sense of humour then sure - I'd want a boyfriend like that.
But if I'd find a guy with those characteristics then I'd probably grab him and run far away from any meddling, no matter what his nationality would be.

I think I might be able to. One should pronounce the "ll" like the "y" in "you", non?

Picking just one country is too hard - there are a lot of places I'd want to visit.
If I choose from the countries that are closer to where I am then it would have to be Italy and Spain. If we're talking about the East then I'd really like to go to Thailand and Japan.

Pekana

This drama sure picked me up after I'd gotten all broody because of watching a good, but depressing Jdrama. It's just so cute. It made me laugh out loud more times than I can count. Doesn't hurt that the actors and actresses are so hansome and pretty either.

Pekana

This is the second Kdrama that I watched, first being Goong, so it's not like I have a lot to compare with, but it had me in stitches. Sam Soon was such a funny character, but also very touching. Hyun Bin and Kim Sun Ah had great chemistry. I must say, though, one of my favourite scenes in the movie...

I'm 162 cm (about 5'3). That's perhaps a bit shorter than the average for women in my country. Don't know if I'd want to be taller. I'm pretty comfortable with my height except when I'm in the presence of very tall people (I mean basketball tall here), then I feel uncomfortable, like they're towerin...

Not in love. At all.

Damn, I should get out more.

Oooh, the next episode just finished downloading! So shiny... Heh heh

Pekana

I don't cry when I watch dramas. In general, I rarely cry even while watching movies where others are usually bawling their eyes out. I get misty-eyed at most. Not to say that there haven't been movies that have made me start the waterworks in earnest, but that's rare. That doesn't mean I'm not touc...

Oooh, tough choice between Goong and My Girl! :unsure: I'd have to say My Girl, probably because I'm just about to finish watching it now, am totally hooked and it's making me breathless with laughter. Goong is a close second and I'll love it forever because it was my first Kdrama and one of the bes...

Well, the interest for me started the same as for a lot of others here - first anime and manga and then on to drama. My first drama was Hana Yori Dango. I found it while looking for the anime. Though I did not finish watching it, it started my interest in Asian drama. Next came Gokusen which I loved...

Pekana

The first asian drama I ever watched was Hana Yori Dango. I didn't finish it though. It just didn't manage to keep my interest until the very end.

The first Korean drama I watched was Goong and from then on I really started to like dramas.

Pekana

Finished watching this a while ago. I loved it. I like hockey well enough and Queen is one of my favorite bands so I guess those were pluses. I also thought that the two leads had excellent chemistry. The interaction between Halu and his friends/teammates was also entertaining to watch. I was wonder...

Hi there. :salut: Funny that I'd make my first post in a drama forum on a topic that's unrelated to TV drama. I always get roped in by the controversial subjects. Here's my two cents.
