Nope, but can you recommend me some? Holidays are awfully boring

Downloaded some, Full House, Coffee Prince, Goong, Lovers in Paris but Ive never found the time.

I usually watch Jdoramas (buzzer beat and orthros no inu this season) but Im currently hooked on Chinese Wuxia dramas, after finishing Legend of the Condor Heroes. Now watching Paladins in Troubled Times

Here's a decent free streaming site for asian dramas and movies:

Watch Asian Drama Online for Free! JDrama, KDrama, and TDrama Movies

I use the sister site to mostly watch one piece

My girlfriend's mom was from Korea so I used to watch them pretty often. They're pretty similar to a lot of the Jdramas my grandparents used to watch on KIKU.

Full House was my first KDrama (I've only watched like 7-8, since they are quite time-consuming..). Song Hye-Kyo was awesome. I've actually seen a few episodes of Goong S, and it was pretty good.

My dad likes watching Chinese dramas (my mom's the kdrama one), and I saw a few clips of Legend of the Condor Heroes...

Recently, I've watched Beethoven Virus and Time between Dog and Wolf. They're both good. Especially the strong acting.

My girlfriend watches Kdramas once in a while and she has some friends who are crazy about them.

I don't really have interest.

Used to work in TVB in Hong Kong, so very familiar with Hong Kong dramas, but have also watched a few Japanese and Korean dramas over the years. In general, quality of most Japanese dramas are quite high by Asian standards. The better Korean dramas are good too, though I would avoid the tear-jerking cliche-ridden romantic stories.

The last Korean drama I saw was On Air.

I haven't seen any JDramas (a few movies), so I can't comment on them. KDramas are largely inconsistent, ranging from great ones, to ones of lesser quality...but the good ones are watchable many, many times...[Jewel in the Palace (or Dae Jang Geum) is an exemplary example]. On another note, anyone listen to korean music?

I don't watch them, but Crunchyroll - Watch Naruto and Anime Videos free online has a whole bunch of asian dramas and anime!

Just finished Goong S (Princess Hours). It was fairly good, except the ending was somewhat lacking...
