As we all know dramas have a wide space in everyone’s heart.What we watch and what we don’t depends on our favourite genres and interests.Some people discover dramas through there friends and family while some give it chance to see if they are worth it and find out a lot more then they expected.My experience was that I was looking for a show to watch during quarantine and I suddenly came across this drama ( my first ever drama) .The trailer was exiting and thrilling but I thought that it will probably be boring. I still gave it a go and what I discovered was a world full of dramas and great shows that now I can’t stop watching.Everyone has different stories to how they came across dramas.Let the world hear your adventure.

haha this is cute! I’m also a 2020 drama baby 
It started with two of my best friends getting into kdramas and kpop, and then I felt so left out when they sat and giggled over them. I was a huuuuuge Disney girl back then and thought there was no better. Kept wondering what was so great about these Korean ppl…but finally I decided to try just so I won’t be left out, and I got HOOKED immediately! I loved how refreshingly different it was. I loved how the genre is ‘rom-com’ but I end up crying so hard and going on this total rollercoaster of emotions! I love how the love stories take soooooo long to happen, and love is not equated to sex. I love even the cliches and wait for them to happen deep down inside. Kdramas make me smile and I’m happy for that!

It all started when I, rather randomly, started learning Korean, without having a clue about the fact that it was a thing. K-pop? K-drama? Never heard of it, just became fascinated by a language that I had coincidentally stumbled upon.
Then of course I went searching for Korean things to expose myself to and found music … and then Viki! I started watching lots of Korean shows, and later also shows from other countries, especially Taiwan and Japan … and the rest is history!

Believe it or not, my introduction to non-English overseas content started with Japanese anime via crunchyroll.
After some time I started to think to myself. ‘Perhaps I should give overseas non-animated drama a go’ . As there are subtitles, so it shouldn’t be any different to watching anime so I started watching non-English drama with subtitles on Netflix and that eventually led me here. I think the first non-animated non-English content I watched was a Spanish drama on Netflix, but I can’t remember what it was as it was a long while ago now.
I tell you one thing I have improved my reading speed a lot since watching content with subtitles , although sometimes I still think to myself that God for the rewind and pause function.

My oldest son made me buy him hundreds of Japanese magazines that I don’t know how he said he could ‘‘read’’ (they were not translated in English).
All of a sudden years back, they started having Chinese channels here in the US that showed dramas I never had interest watching… until one day I saw BIG with Lee Min Jung and Gong Yoo and I was forever hooked that lead me to discover viki.com.

I’m last long addicted to japanese mangas, animations, etc…Since DBZ, sailor moon and more. But not really interested in drama. 2D characters were enough for my youngself. It was like that until I reached university. Then I had the opportunity to learn japanese, and mi teacher who was a native from japan, she made us watch some parts of dramas…and then I started it. Many of my classmates was dive into j-dramas for a while. Just to clarify, I already known j-dramas existence, but I doesn’t want to watch it. First, because for what they seemed really strange (low cost FX, costume, etc). Second, i didn’t want to ruin my good memory of my beloved mangas or animations with a not - always- good drama adaptation.
But then, I was tempted and finally, I watched a first j-drama (back in 2007). I chose something I didn’t know. So my first was hanazakari no kimitachi he. Then it was with one of my prefered actor : shun Oguri (I know him without really knowing him, he played in a film Azumi, where I really loved his character). Anyways, first but not the last, I started to watched more and more j-dramas.
Then in 2010, started k-dramas inferno ahah. OMG!! Ok koreans are better than japanese for acting (some japanese are good, but they over exaggerated for many). And all because, I discovered the super junior (ELF squad XD). Now I’m onto c-drama as well since the Untamed phenomenom! My earrings now can pretty much make the difference between the three languages, and my eyes are better to do the gym between subtitles and the screen hahaha. Sometimes I have to stop the video again, but if I want to fully understand the show, I have to do that.
I never regret to sink into dramaworld, but I don’t have enough of 24 hours a day to do all I have to do

Started looking at Korean drama after watching a Korean movie called “My Little Bride” (2004).
I was an Anime fan but now Anime last few years feels lacking or maybe I’ve just grown out of it. But now only horror/thriller Anime with darker tone interests me. Which is probably why I enjoy Korean drama coming from OCN channel as they tend to be horror/thriller/action theme.

Yes, I also came to Viki through Netflix “Ashes of Love” was it on Netflix, I wanted to see more of this kind, and finally led me over YouTube where I then on “the Untemed” have found…
In search of “the untamed” with German subtitles, then brought me to Viki…
When I remember it back, That was not so easy At the multitude of providers, I didn’t know if Viki could be trusted… My curiosity won in the end

I have a kind of convoluted path to watching kdramas I love a good romance story and I watched Hallmark movies all the time (which now pale in comparison to kdramas). I started running out of things to watch and I stubbed across a Filipino romance movie last summer which was amazing! I ended up watching a bunch and they were all excellent. I then started watching “Triad Princess” a Taiwanese drama that came out last year and ended up watching a couple kdramas and cdramas. After watching It’s Okay to Not be Okay this summer (my absolute favorite!) I ended up on Viki to find more dramas outside of Netflix and here I am!

I was actually on Hotpot TV before i found this website. I had to stop using Hotpot because it wasn’t a safe website. but i’m glad i found this one. I’m even learning different languages just so i can stop reading subtitles. I have never been more determined to learn until now.

Netflix , purchased Netflix for the Chilling Adventures of Sabrina and it kept recommending sci/fi/occult movies , it recommended Abyss , subtitles were not a big deal for me , so I gave it a try …everything about it was new to me in what I had seen in a show ( I thought it was movie ) and I kept wanting to get to the end…that was last year , now I have seen about 50 dramas , pay for Viki AND Kocowa …depending on where I am working , the wifi will not pass one or the other

I was strongly addicted to anime, Japanese culture.
One day, while watching a video on youtube about anime, specifically Shojo ( most of the time a love story ), I saw, on the recommendations below, an MV about the k-drama " Who are you : 2015 ".
I kinda was curious about it and ended by watching it on youtube with english subtitles even if, at that time, I couldn’t understand the english language clearly
And, as you guessed, I’ve been amazed by the k-drama world !!
Thanks to this new wonderful world, my english improved well.
I also found that living isn’t that easy for every single human being and that loving and being loved is one of the most essential keys to happiness.
Life is playful ; full of suprises that we, its pawns, have to deal with it confidently
Thank for reading this short text, and sorry for my bad english,
Have a nice day 
Love 
and peace
