How Did You Get Into Taiwanese Drama?

I was so excited to find a couple of vinglers who watches Taiwanese Drama! I thought it'll be a great idea to hear how you guys got into T-dramas. Here's an brief intro of myself!

How I got into Taiwanese Drama?

I grew up watching Hong Kong series (TVB dramas) with my family. During high school I was introduced to Taiwanese drama, Meteor garden through a C-pop group called F4 with members (Jerry Yan, Vic Zhou, Vaness Wu, Ken Chu). From there I branched out to other Taiwanese dramas staring the same actresses and actors.

One of my favorite Taiwanese Drama:

In Time With You (我可能不會愛你)
Starring: Ariel Lin, Bolin Chan
This was a really refreshing and realistic story. It centers around a pair of high school besties. The guy obviously is interested in the girl but timing prevents them from expressing his true feeling. In addition, the girl is in denial due to fear of loosing the friendship.

My favorite actors/actresses...

Aaron Yan

Vivian Sung

Rainie Yang

Chris Wu

Oh and how can I forget the Bromance crew. ;)

Megan Lai, Borin Chan, Bii

@biancadanica98 @cindystran the korean and the anime are my absolute favorite, but they are the first two I watched
@cindystran the Japanese version is as enjoyable as the Taiwanese version in my opinion!
@petname83 I re-watched the Taiwanese version probably 2-3 times (including the second season). I think the first season is better though. Anyways I just saw the Japanese trailer and I'll start with that! So excited to revisit this story again. :D
@cindystran I actually liked that she was childish, it gave her character. She wasn't plain or serious but lively! Her acting is amazing in Just You! When the fish... I cried with her!
Yea! Same exact thing that happened to me!! :3 @BluBear07

[Before K-Drama] Boys Over Flowers!
It's time for another "Before K-Drama" where we talk about what dramas were originally (webtoon, manga, book, etc) I'm pretty sure you all have heard of this little drama: Boys Over Flowers: It is based on Japanese manga Hana Yori Dango (花より男子) written by Yoko Kamio. There have been Japanese, Taiwanese, Indian, and, of course, a Korean remake! Most of them have had not only drama versions but also full length films! (It's called Meteor Garden in Taiwanese!) The Korean version, "Boys Over Flowers," is usually people's first K-drama and if you haven't seen it then you've definitely heard of it t least once! (Also, I don't know why Jan-di's legs are cut off in this photo hahaha) I actually watched Hana Yori Dango (the Japanese remake) completely by accident! My parents were trying to get me my first ever Korean DVD for Christmas and sort of failed ;P But it ended up being a good thing! They thought they got me Boys Over Flowers, but they got me the movie version of Hana Yori Dango! And it was sooo good! (Like, cheesy Japanese drama good, so...hahah) I haven't watched the drama yet though :D I haven't seen Meteor Garden (the Taiwanese version) either even though this was the first drama version of the manga! Which of these have you seen or read!? and if you havent seen any... Tagging my "Before K-Drama" folks! @merryjayne13 @Yongsongmi @Kamiamon @CreeTheOtaku @chongx @RaquelArredondo @KellyOConnor @Msrayray95 @drummergirl691 @netchtiBates @Lizzeh @PamelaPenaloza @Priscilla @biancadanica98 @petname83 @JamiMilsap @juniholtgrewe @sosoaloraine23 @sherrysahar @KiraHitomi @TLeahEdwards @shananunezl1234 @IMNII @SarahIvester
