  • Hello and welcome to our humble nest!

    This profile is for all the chics that are mad (well some of us) about Korean/Japanese/Taiwanese Drama/films/Music etc.Here we can share/recommend/discuss everything and nothing about our passion for Asian Entertainment and hunks (^_^)

    Since we are scattered all over the globe and can’t invite each other over a nice cup of tea and catching up on our latest drama etc, this will be our ‘little’drama over a cup of tea/coffee corner.

    Ja!

  • What are we watching? [by Allyson aka Enigma]

    Tuesday, Jul 6, 2010 7:42AM / Members only

    I haven't watched any dramas since I finished Down With Love in May.  Well, not any first run dramas anyway.  I finally finished Code Blue 2.  I backed off of that for a bit cuz the subbers were having issues.  I've seen up to episode 10 of Drifting Net Cafe.  The subber is super slow so it'll be another year before I see the last couple of episodes it seems. That was part sarcasm and part fear of reality.

    Yesterday, I went searching to see what some of my favorite guys were up to and I found Hiroshi Abe's recent series Shinzanmono is partially subbed.  The tall one that makes my heart flutter, Hayami Mokomichi, has a guest part or recurring role or something.  For those that like him, Jun Matsumoto is in an episode.  I'll let you know how it is. 

    Of course I'm still waiting for episodes of Legend of the Heavenly Stones and Goku Dou High School to be released.  That'll be another 2 years.  The Chinese language sub groups are so dang slow, especially when it comes to wuxia.

    So, what are you watching?  Anything good?

  • Drama Watched List (Enigma)

    Wednesday, Mar 17, 2010 3:38PM / Members only

    I posted my list awhile ago on my page.  It's grown a tad.  I was wondering if anyone else kept a running list.  I'm not just nosey, but I think it's a good way to find dramas that might be interesting and fully subbed.  Fully subbed being the major attraction.  I started my list (I also have an anime one) at the request of a friend.  I keep my list updated on Crunchyroll.  (Updating pages is about all I do on CRnowadays.)  If you have a drama list, please feel free to put it in comments or link it.  In the interest of full disclosure, I will paste mine below.  I'll also point out the ones I know that star AnD OAs.  By the way, my list may include tv specials, but it does not include cinema movies like Gokusen or Kuro Sagi.

  • Review of Wing Chun (aka Yong Chun)

    Tuesday, Mar 16, 2010 1:09AM / Members only

    Hey Hey

    Martial arts master Liang Zan (Yuen Biao) was once young and rash, and now a respected master and physician, not to mention the father of two sons. Liang Zan must pass on his kung fu skills to the next generation, but his eldest son Liang Bi (Nicholas Tse) is reckless, aimless, and irresponsible, much like him in his youth; his youngest son Chun has no interest in kung fu and wishes to become a doctor. Growing up in the chaos of early 1900s China, Liang Bi encounters countless troubles and trials, romance, and a certain playful master Huang Hua Bao (Sammo Hung), who teaches him the art of Wing Chun.

    I had been looking for absolutely ages to find this drama online with subtitles, and finally found it. The fight scenes and the acting from the cast were excellent.  Sammy Hung was fantastic as Gao Ming who was often a tortured soul who turned evil sometimes due to events that happened.  Also the character Haushun was perfectly casted with Philip Ng in the role, funny yet excellent kung fu learner.  There is 40 episodes to this drama, but dont let that put you off, its worth every minute.

    My rating for this drama is 10 out of 10.

  • One Word (sometimes more) Drama Reviews - post by Allyson (enigma306)

    Monday, Mar 15, 2010 11:22AM / Members only

    As the self named Drama Ho, I probably watch more dramas than every member.  I've perhaps watched more in total but I'm not sure (not sure who the members are actually).  Anywho, I've actually finished about 4 or 5 dramas since 2/19, 6 or 7 total this year and it's only March!  Mind you I started a couple last year.  Yep, I keep the running list of dramas on my page, but rarely do I ever tell you guys if what I've finished is crap.  That is, until now.   I'll start with the recently finished.

    *City Hall, The (KOR) - delightful
    Cain & Abel (KOR) - well acted  
    Que Sera Sera (KOR) - a waste
    *When It's At Night (KOR) - entertaining
    Autumn's Concerto (TWN) - melodramatic but well-rounded
    IRIS (KOR) - thrilling
    Tokyo Dogs (JPN) - fun
    Momo Love (TWN) - uhh .... alright
    Soul (KOR) - creepy

    *I've become a big Sun Ah (My Lovely Sam-Seon) fan.  She stars in both these dramas.

    The best out of the lot is IRIS, but I'll take espionage and action over anything.  Both IRIS and TD are well acted, but TD is more of a comedy.  Plus, IRIS is steps above TD in terms of production.  Yes, it has romance in it.  It is, afterall, an Asian drama.   Not into action?  Try City Hall.  It's a romance comedy and it has it's fair amount of tears, but it's funny.  I found myself laughing out loud during almost every episode.  The cast is great.  Loads of chemistry and great timing in this drama.

    Note: I hate AnD's default spacing.  I mean what the hell is up with double space?  I need to go through the html to correct it, but I'm lazy.

  • What some of us fInish watching....

    Sunday, Jan 31, 2010 11:26PM / Members only

    Zai& daughter currently watching:
     
    Yamato Nadeshiko Shichi Henge
     
    The story is about Sunako Nakahara, a girl who was called "ugly" by a boy, the first and only person to
    whom she confessed her love. This incident sparks a life change, and as a result Sunako shuns all forms of
    beauty, both in herself as well as in life. Concerned by her change for the worst, Sunako's aunt, the owner of a
    beautiful mansion where four very handsome students live, offers the guys free rent in her mansion if they can
    turn Sunako into a "perfect lady" (referred to in Japan as the titular Yamato Nadeshiko).

    Watched one ep so far & we are loving it, we loving kamen kun as handsome bad boy

    It's weird having this because this isn't a board. You're the only one that can make posts so that we can respond. I came to post the other day and realized I couldn't. I'll try to do better. Do a Feb recommendation post.
