Reading this article is like living again my beginnings with Asian dramas. He was the first actor I remembered by name and Nobuta is still in my top dramas. What a lovely memories... I can't wait for MONSTERS.
I turned my friend into total drama-addict and we can spend hours speaking about the development in the latest episode of some drama. But unfortunately the problem with my other friends rest upon the language barrier. They're saying that they can't speak/read English well enough to even try (and persuading with "You'll improve your language skills" doesn't help much) and subtitles in my native language aren't avaible or just suck (or at least the ones I tried, but I find English subs more suitable anyway). But I'm not afraid of these obstacles and I'll never give up. I've found that good start can be also some good movie to just let them get used to new language. It's sad that many people can't differ between Japanese and Korean.
