So it's D-Day. Let's wait and see if this drama worth watching.

Yes it was. I watched it for Andy too but I was absolutely pissed at him for choosing such a film.

She's absolutely a special actress to me, she gives a great aura and I do believe that she's amongst the good actresses not the plastic ones.
I hope she would get more interesting main roles in the future so that I would be able to follow her career properly.

If there's a reason why I am not watching God's Gift then it's Lee Bo Young, I just can't stand that actress.

You dislike Horror? I also don't watch it but I've seen Ring, Grudge and some others.

I watched Kurokouchi while it was airing and I totally recommend it. It's absolutely not your typical Japanese drama, quite intriguing indeed. Let me know if you ever start watching it.

Have you finished Reply 1994?

Of course I do but you've been away for too long Dior; try to come even when you're busy (:

I see that you're almost done with it, I will congradulate you when you do. Just a little courage and everything will be over Dior! What's your next drama is going to be?

I am totally drifting away at the moment! It's been almost a month that I didn't touch a single episode. I am busy and I find films and some dramas more interesting. I even stopped watching the series I used to see and stopped reading the mangas I used to read LOL!

I will watch it eventually bit not now; you know that I need some time off between two seasons of the same drama.

Since I saw Goemon first, I will let you know once I watch Casshern which one is better.

Unlike you, I am more of a veteran in Hong Kong and Chinese films' industry. It wouldn't be hard to get into them once you get used to their ways of making films. From the ones you've seen, which ones were your favorites?

I will end up watching both Suicide Club and Noriko's dinner one day. I just have to be in the right state to do so.

Horikita was one of the first Japanese actresses I knew but I do believe she's not a good actress and I am not exactly interested in what she does.

Well, Unfair is somewhat an older drama so you can't expect nowadays detective mesures.

Yes, I finished Keizoko and what follows it and I found it quite good but I know that not everyone would handle the heavy dark aura of the drama. It's for detective dramas' lovers but even within those, only 50% would actually like it.

I am just getting too involved in older Jdramas. Right now, I started watching "Orange Days". I see it's one of your favorite dramas (:

She's already watching it, she was able to catch up in no time (:

I am interested in Days of Wrath but I still have a huge list of Korean Thrillers priorities to watch first. I haven't heard of "Top Star" I am afraid.

Oguri Shun's drama is scheduled for the Spring Season I suppose while the OCN drama is only few weeks away but they will catch up to each other I believe.

I was talking about the old Keizoku, the one from 1999 but I haven't seen the SPEC one yet. What did you think of it?

I am glad you finally had the chance to see The Berlin File. It was truly great! Did you see how charismatic HJW was in there?

A Mexican movie? I don't know about their movies but when I was a child they used to air lots of Mexican dramas on out local TV. They were interesting but too freaking wrong (sometimes 400 episodes). I saw few of them when I was a child but now; I never watch them anymore.

Ah so you're going to pick movies not dramas? Tell me about time! But at least I have a nice trick, when in internship we have some pauses to get some sleep but I go to the room and watch a movie or some dramas' episodes. At least, I won't miss out time :D

Btw, I finally started watching Orange Days (:

Don't worry about it (:

So how did you find Gou? I am not watching any taiga drama at the moment, I finished Tenchijin about two weeks ago and now, I am watching some other dramas. Right now, I am following "Orange Days" (:

I saw a Japanese classic dubbed in French before and then I had to rewatch it with its original language. It's not the same belive me, the old Japanese language adds magic especially if it's Mifune speaking.

It's a pity really, how much taiga dramas are being ignored :(

It's great to see Japanese classics, they're pure gold!

I've only seen Rashomon from this list which I believe it's one of the greatest masterpieces Akira Kurosawa ever made. It was very mesmerizing and quite intriguing.
It was also one of my favorite Toshiro roles, God that man is such a legend!

I will get down to all of Zatoichi's films one day but first I have to clear the huge lists of the directors Kurosawa, Kobayashi, Inagaki and Suzuki and the actors Nakadai Tatsuya and Mifune Toshiro's lists. I know it's a very long way to go.

Yes, Full Sun is the literate translation of the Korean title and Beyond the Clouds is the English title.

EC was already a no ever since it was first announced. You see I can't watch medical dramas, I only saw about three seasons of Grey's Anatomy and "ER" before I majored in medicine and after that, all Medical dramas became a painful watch for me so they're the genre I will never watch. And let's not forget Song Ji Hyo who is a serious black actress for me.

So I take it that you're enjoying Pride and INR3, right?

You don't have the right to kick me out. Partners to kick each other out, that's a rule Bwahahaha

I will wait and see. I think Jin Se Yeon is the love interest and I am definitely not willing to see her as a female lead again. I was going to teolerate it thinking that she was going to be a mere second female lead but I was wrong. I think I may pass this.

OMG LOL! You made me laugh so freaking hard you evil thing!

Yes I've been! You just never noticed it that's why sunbae Bwahahaha

I thought I should start it when there's only four episodes left so that I can skip parts if things don't look good to me. Isn't that a great idea or what? :p

Well, I watched Lady Vengeance and A Bittersweet Life lately. Both of them were very good and oddly, they were both made in 2005 :D Today, I finished Keizoku the drama, its special and its movie. All of them were pretty cool.

What about you?

Thanks and yes, it's my exact cup of tea. I finished watching it recently.
I will let you know when I start watching MFTS (:

Don't worry about the long post (:

I see what you mean, I am only watching classic samurai movies at the moment so I din't actually stumble into recent ones. I am also sure that they're not as good as the old ones. Goemon can be considered a Samurai movie btw, mixed with the Ninja theme. And I heard that Goemon is better than Casshern, tell me if it's true.

I also been watching Asian movies and more specifically Hong Kong and Chinese movies ever since I was little and way before I became addicted to dramas or before I started watching Hollywood films. My HKC DVD collection is huge and I always spend at least 30 minutes to choose which film I should rewatch. That's why even if I stop watching dramas one day (if that ever happens), I will never give up on Asian movies including Korean Thrillers and Japanese classics.

Oh, have you seen "Noriko's Dinner Table" recently? I was wondering if it's an horror or a psychological thriller. I watched Audition that I've beend delaying thinking it was horror but it wasn't of that genre at all. Is Noriko's dinner table the same?

must admit that she's not a good actress; she pissed me off in Thorn Birds and I really hope that none of her other dramas will interest me in the future. The drama you started in "One Warm Word", right? I recommended it to a friend of mine who's a serious fan of melodramas, I don't watch them but once I noticed a promising one, I mention it to those who are interested in the genre. How is it treating you?

Yes exactly! Plus movies' industry is more hot than dramas/series industry in the world.

Dr. Frost is also an OCN detective drama that seems quite intriguing. As for Oguri's drama, he will be playing the role of a detective who got shot in the head but he survived death and the bullet stayed in his head. Ever since then, he started to see ghosts. Pretty similar to "The Ghost seeing detective" I assume.

I just finished watching Keizoku, its special and its movie. Have you seen it?

I have to agree with that; there are actors that work like saviors. I can give the overall rating a 5 but the acting get 9 or 10 because some actors are just that great. The best example in my case is Tsumabuki Satoshi ever since he decided to become a films' actor. He's really one of the greatest young Japanese actors and God, he has a mesmerizing intensity but the roles/movies he choses aren't always that great/ Actually, 60% of them are a miss but I still love watching whatever he's in because of his acting.

Let's see, I still haven't watched any drama produced in 2014. I was watching few older Japanese dramas (1999-2002) and I realized how much I enjoy older Jdramas. I just finished Keizoku with its special and its movie, I liked it very much. I am also waiting on fire for "Gunshi Kanbei", this year's taiga drama to be subbed because I am really a big fan of the great strategist Kanbei. The man's story is very inspiring.
As for Korean dramas, I was planning to watch Inspiring Generation but now, I am having serious second thoughts. I will start Man from the Stars because of JJH since I really love films' actresses. And I am growing an interest in "Beyond the Clouds" although I am not melodramas' person but I can handle them better than romcoms. The concept of this drama attracts me and the female lead is a special actress of mine.

What about you? Is there any drama that attracts you?
