Good morning, good evening,
Bonjour, Bonsoir,
I'm a 23 years old french woman, internationnal business student, and hardcore drama watcher.
I speak French, English, Japanese (not that good with writing&reading). And understand Korean, and the basics of Thai, Chinese, Spanish and Italian.
My favorite J-dramas are... Nijiiro Karute, Ikebukuro West Gate Park, Sleepeeer Hit!, Cold Case, Life As A Girl, Suzuki-sensei, The Invisible Craddle and For N.
K-dramas are... Solomon Perjury, The Light in Your Eyes, Children Of Nobody, It's Okay That's Love, I Hear Your Voice, Hello Monster, Dear My Friends and Reply 1988.
C-dramas are... Go Ahead, Nirvana In Fire, Hikaru No Go, You Are My Glory, Reset and When A Snail Fall In Love
TH-drama are... The Gifted (and Graduation), He's coming To Me, Bad Buddy, Still Together, A Tale Of Thousand Stars
That's all for me ! Let's talk my DRAMA HISTORY (this is absolutely useless reading)
I think I began watching dramas somewhere around middle-school, but I don't really remember. And my first drama was either Hanakimi, HanaYori, or Tokyo Dogs. It's weird that I don't remember, because I clearly remember my first manga (Fruits Basket, 3rd year of elementary school), and first anime (Card Captor Sakura, kindergarden). But drama......
Anyway, because I came from mangaland/animeland, I naturally began watching J-dramas. And discovered TW-dramas, then K-pop, then K-dramas, then TH-dramas, then C-dramas, and then C-pop......
I'm keeping the chronological order, but for TW-dramas, it was only 3 dramas : Devil Beside You, Skip Beat and Black&White. The first 2 because manga adaptations, and the last one because a friend compared it to Tokyo Dogs.
My real addiction began with K-pop and K-dramas. Because before that I was still pretty much into anime more than J-dramas/J-pop. It was 2012, Youtube recommended me the Japanese Version of Hello (my least favorite SHINee song), I didn't like it... But got interested and discovered BEAST, and INFINITE.
AND RING DING DONG TOOK MY HEART BY STORM.
So I began To The Beautiful You and Shut Up, because of oppas, in 2012.
It was the years of City Hunter, and Vampire Prosecutor... Dramas that I tried re-watching a few years ago and cringed too much I couldn't finish it.
It was done, I was deep into the drama hole, and couldn't come back.
Of course, the same way I got from J to K, the transition to C and TH was pretty smooth. For China, the first I finished was Nirvana In Fire. Yes, I couldn't finish ONE chinese drama before this. Always dropped or on-holded it. I'm not proud of myself... It was 2015!
But before that, it was TH-dramas and, of course, BL !
It was 2014, with Love Sick ! Good times ... Jokes, it wasn't good. But I loved it to death at the time. I re-watched SOTUS three years ago with a friend, and was shocked at how slow everyhting was.
I still loved every single second of Noh & Phun moments in ReminderS. I f they change the cast for LoveSick 3, I'm gonna cry... And not watch it.
For C-pop, I was listening to EXO members songs, but really got into it because of Idol Producer, and TFBoys. I loved their idol drama Finding Soul, and Boyhood. They debuted so young, I have a weird motherly feeling for them.
And that's it ! We're March 2020, and I'm sure I won't edit this till September 2034.
