| First off, I don't know if this is where I should ask for a recommendation. I don't think the anime & manga sub-forums fit this really well though so yeah....on to the meat: Honestly, I have never ever watched an Asian drama. Never thought about it even though my parents have watched a ton of them while I was around... I really want to try watching one. Any Asian language is fine but I prefer it being Japanese (I want to brush up on my Japanese). I want some intense drama/romance heh...I hope you guys don't disappoint me. |

Hongo-Takeshi said: Ichi Ritaru no Namida You mean "Ichi Rittoru no Namida" (one liter of tears)? |
I ♥ Two Syaorans from Tsubasa RESERVoir CHRoNiCLE and TRC!!! |
| Japanese -Kimi wa Pet -Ikemen desu ne (remake of the Korean drama "You're Beautiful") -Hana Kimi (the original, not the 2011 remake) -Boys Before Flowers/Hana Yori Dango (just because it's so popular) Korean -My Girlfriend is a Nine-Tailed Fox -Secret Garden -Boys Over Flowers (the Korean version, taken from the Japanese manga) |

| One litre of tears is heavy. start with something fun. ;) This series is called orange days. you follow 3 men and 3 women through university. They are a friend and its very pleasant slice of life / romance. also alot of heavy romance here, not like anime romance with ecchi and stupid stuff. but more of actual comitting between the character. Give this series a shot, and download it or see it in good graphics, as it is a quite new series. |

| Forgot to mention I was looking more towards a movie, not really series. I'll check out your recommendation though. Thanks guys. |
|
| 1 Litre of Tears. Have a box of tissues ready beforehand. |
  |
| Th movies i've seen weren't that intense on the romance part, but the ones I liked moste were: No mercy for the rude 71: Into the fire (war movie) Kiss me, Kill me (comedy) They're all korean tho sorry |
Who are you to say that you don't believe in Santa? |
| I dont know about movies, but despite being series, Orange Days is a worthwhile time investments, with unique elemenet not found in any anime or movie really - japanese sign language for deaf. The main female lead can show how sharp and even cute it can be. |
| Koizora (movie) was really really sad! :( I highly reccomend it. The storyline is amazing and the cast are great ^^ Yui Aragaki x Miura Haruma Oh and also Hana Yori dango! That show will always be my top favorite! |
| Japan: -Hana Kimi[2OO7] (this was my very first asian drama (: ) -Hana Yori Dango -Kimi Wa Petto -Nobuta Wo Produce -Gokusen -Tatta Hitotsu No Koi -Yamato Nadeshiko Shichi Henge Korean: -My Girlfriend Is A Gumiho -Secret Garden -Shining Inheritance -The Greatest Love -Coffee Prince [my first Kdrama] -City Hunter -The Princess' Man [historical] Taiwan: -Hana Kimi [Taiwan] -It Started With A Kiss -Bull Fighting[ And you can find most of these dramas on Dramacrazy, others on Viki (: |
 |
| For starters definitely Hana-Kimi =D (Japanese version), Hana Yori Dango, Yamato Nadeshiko Shichi Henge, Gokusen, Bloody Monday and One Litre of tears Korean: -You're Beautiful -Playful Kiss -Coffee Prince -My Girl I don't watch many Taiwanese dramas but the Hana kimi Taiwanese version is pretty good too =] Hope u enjoy ~ |
| If you just started, i recommend: Personal taste. Check it out on Youtube, all the episodes are there with english captions. |
| Start with Nodame Cantabile, out of the very popular ones it's the best, very funny - dorky - romantic - cute and very anime-ish. most people like hana yori dango, not my taste, but you probably can't go wrong to start with this one either. |
| it really depends on what you like. i would recommend you not jumping straight to the popular dramas because they overshadow the true gems. |
