The websites where I watch my dramas and the drama of watching them at these sites.
Dramafever.org - Heard about it on Dramabeans.com, a blog about Korean Dramas. I like this site for many reasons. The video quality is great. All the episodes are easily accessible. Lots of Dramas! I created an account there which is nice because then it remembers what episodes you've seen, and where you were in a specific episode. The only downside is commercials, but they are really, really short and spaced about 10 minutes apart.
Mysoju.com - Not just Korean Drama, but Japanese, Taiwanese, and Chinese as well. There is a huge variety of shows to choose from. However, the quality depends on where the video is coming from. Some series or episodes don't work. Still, great site for Drama.
viikii.net - Ummm... still tinkering with this one. Its very international with all kinds of drama and it is likely to have the first subs since the community voluntarily does it. Good quality and access to the next episode in a series. I don't like the traffic though. Really jams things up.
youtube.com - Last resort, but we all love this site. It reminds me of digging for buried treasure. Sometimes you find what you are looking for, sometimes you get something very close to what you were look for, sometimes you get nothing. I go to youtube when I know a series that I want to watch, but it isn't available on the other sites. Then I just cross my fingers that someone posted a subbed version.

iidrama.com
dramacrazy.net - This site is harder to navigate/browse then mysoju, and I blame it mostly on the lacking filter system. I go here if I know the name of the show that I want, but can't find it working elsewhere. However, once you've picked a show, this site is great. It is easy to go on to the next part or next episode, there are sometimes reviews to help you decide if you really want to watch it, and there is usually a gallery of pictures.

The Beginning of my Asian Drama Craze
I am obsessed with Asian Dramas. That is Korean, Japanese, Taiwanese, etc. TV live action dramas. Here is the story on how this craziness started.
While at USU, one of Natasha's friends let her borrow a Taiwanese Drama she had bought on line. It was based on a comic book Natasha was collecting called "The Devil Does Exist", but the drama was called "Devil Beside You". I was having a bad weekend and needed some cheering up, so I had Tash buy me some Cherry Cordial Kisses, Oreos, and Cheetos (my junk food of choice) and while she was out for the night, I watched "Devil Beside You" on her computer. The whole thing. That's 20, 45 minute episodes. Safe to say, I LOVED IT!

So, that is how it all started. I will be posting a lot of reviews about these shows that I like, and I will rate them based on my own personal preference.

A while later, my older sister's friend Stacey was convincing Janalyn to watch a Korean Drama with her called "Boys Before Flowers", and I had read some of the comic it was based on. Another weekend when I was feeling pretty miserable, I headed over to Janalyn's house and watched it with them. That pretty much decided the thing. I was hooked. It also got me addicted to K Pop, but that is another discussion.
