Hi everyone, I probably am a little bit older than the average drama watcher as I am going to turn 50 this year. However, I discovered J-dramas by chance last year thanks to my children who are J-fanatics and they insisted that I watch Long Vacation...it turned out to be love at first sight for me as since then I have become a drama addict!!

I am also a big fan of K-dramas (and K-actors) as I started out by watching only J-dramas because everything about Japan is fascinating for me and I find that their way of life is well represented in their dramas. Ever since I started watching Korean dramas I developed an interest for this nation too. 

As you can see from my long list I have watched over 100 dramas so far and I have many more to go.  My favourite actors are generally over 30 however recently I discovered also the new generation ones who are just as good. The list includes Takuya Kimura, Fujiki Naohito, Tamaki Hiroshi, Shota Matsuda, Nagase Tomoya and Yamapi. To these I must add Gong Yoo (now my number 1 favourite!), Hyun Bin,  Lee Min Ho, Joo Won, Song Joong Ki, So Ji Sub, Jo In Sung and Song Seung Hun who are quickly catching up with the Japanese group.

I hope to meet lots of drama addicts like myself and exchange interesting views about J-dramas and K-dramas.

    Io mi tengo sempre neutrale in fatto di foto del profilo, ma sbavo su quella di Binnie che ho sul desktop.
    Penso che sia un'attività sana e irrinunciabile. ;);)

    Oooh, you beat me to it! :D You finished The Vineyard Man - great job. I took a detour into Iljimae, and then needed something a bit lighter and am back to Vineyard. Definitely liking the banter between the 2 mains. The whole 'rustic' lifestyle is hilarious.

    I'm sorry for the incovenience :) Even though I already strongly identified with Bladey, found it usd on some strange sites so I wanted to make sure not to have that connection.

    About how long does it take for you to watch a drama avg. 16-20 ep? Or is it interest based? For me, if I LOVE it, I'll speed through under a week or so, if it isn't suspenseful enough, maybe a couple of weeks...

    I'm currently at Ep. 2 for Vineyard Man now too. Hoping it gets a bit more interesting. I love HER acting, haven't really fallen for him yet. :P

    Well I guess whether I enjoy it will depend on my mood. Right now I probably won't, but I'll keep it on my ptw then. Somehow last cindereall doesn;t sound appealing to me, but Saikou may be worth a try. thank you for your opinion :)

    Morning! I've read your commen on Ending Planner. Would you overall recommend this drama? I AM somewhat sceptical about Yamapi being in it. Also, try watching the Japanese drama "mother". it;s about mother-daughter relationship. Heavuer in tone than Tonbi but it looks very good (seen 2 episodes so far)

    Thanks for accepting!! ^^

    It's great to meet another drama watcher who is >30. :) I tend to veer away from the high-school dramas for obvious reasons. (exception of Mars which covered adult topics imo) Nice to meet you!

    Agreed! I will have a hard time trusting this drama to right thos wrong. If I were Natsui I would just go for Asahina. He's far more mature and stable. And then everyone saying she's the only one for Tohru? Yeah, right. Because no one else would be able to stand his behaviour. But...I guess this special still takes place within season 1, Sunflower. I think we have to wait for another one to make a genuine judgment whether it' s a lost cause or not. Third time's the charm, as they say.

    He should roperly learn the lesson. You know, i wonder where they are going with it but it;s really naive to watch this again and not see how difficult of a guy Tohru is. No respect for the opther, only his own selfoshness and arrogance take precedence. I hope he will learn a lesson in whatever comes ext because I do think we have another part coming, but this special somehow managed to make me angry.
  • Bladey-Steeleye Apr 8, 2013
    Hu Sunflower. Read your comment on Rich man special. I really actually agree with you, as I wrote in reponse. I mostly agree with you, Sunflower. To me Tohru's behaviour was beyond unacceptable. He was always a little bipolar, but his behaviour in this really was beyond all limits. I'm not sure he really learned anything, either by the end of the special. I'm not convinced. His "maturity" is barely brushed on in the ending and then in the past and until that point at least he was like: claims one thing but then chickens out later. That's not right and his "change" is not really a change, or at least not yet! He still has a loooong way to go, but how much more can Natsui take? I guess we will find out in some future, as this warrants another sequel, but for the moment I lost my patience with this story. Why does a woman have to be always treated this way by a man?
