In the Mood for Dancing

A few facts about me:

♦ I go through loooong drama and MDL slumps. I've been watching dramas since 2006, so life comes in between more and more often.

♦ While I watch  and love dramas and films from many different countries, I have a soft spot for all that is Japanese. My main reason to take long breaks from this site is its blatant bias in favour of South Korea.

♦ I rarely choose what to watch based on the rating here. To restore what I personally perceive as just, in my mind I usually add 1 point to the rating of Japanese shows and detract 1 to the Korean ones. 

♦ I'm not hard to please, but I'm easily irritated by: bigotry, gossip, trend induced choices, tunnel vision. 

♦ I don't care if a drama depicts a jerk male lead as long as the female counterpart can stand her ground and has respect for herself. - for popular reference, see the Hana Yori Dango vs. Itazura na Kiss female lead's attitude.  Recommend to me the first any time but beware to even mention the second.

♦ I'm a serial re-watcher.

I've realized there is a precise moment or scene  in most of my favourite dramas, when  my liking turned into unconditional love. In no particular order:

- Lee Jae Ha's trembling hand on the bridge railings  

"The King 2 Hearts"

- the appearance of Hontou Ojisan, an old man who runs around at night asking random people to tell him their truth

"Nobuta wo Produce"

- The weird ensamble of neighbours partying on the floor landing  

"Love Shuffle"

- Friends froliking in the fountain 

"Coffee Prince"

- Nao and Hiroto falling into the pool

"Tatta Hitotsu no Koi"

- Kai sleeping by the bike with an open umbrella (and everything that came afterwards)

"Orange Days"

Yes, please destroy it! 

List is still long, time is short.
