Hello! I'm J, a 23-year-old law graduate from Malaysia. I've been watching dramas since 2009 (I used to watch Chinese-dubbed K-dramas aired on my country's national tv channels at 8pm every weekday) and subsequently made Dramacool my go-to drama platform. I really enjoyed reading comments and engaging with fellow drama-goers on Dramacool as it had a HUGE community and I even made some friends there. Dramacool gave me a deep sense of belonging, but unfortunately, all good things eventually come to an end, and Dramacool, too, shut down permanently a few days ago :(
Devastated, I embarked on a journey to find a new platform where I could feel the same sense of belonging and somewhere I could find people with similar interests to interact with. I was delighted to find MDL, which also has a large community of drama-goers who actively interact and engage with each other. "This could be it", I excitedly thought to myself. So here I am, seeking to forge new friendships from scratch at MDL.
I look forward to getting to know y'all better! Where you're from, what you majored in, what you do now, your all-time fav drama, fav genre, fav actor, 1st drama, what got you to watch your 1st drama, ANYTHING!
Here are some (hopefully) fun facts about myself to get things started.
Fav dramas (coz I can't choose only one):
Fav genre: Rom-com (with happy endings, as I'm traumatised by Moon Lovers)
1st drama: Iljimae (starring Lee Joong Gi, I first watched this drama because they aired it on one of my country's national tv channels, and it was the beginning of my love story with Asian dramas)
1st BL: TharnType (experienced culture shock watching this one, but instead of turning away, I dived deeper into the wonderful world of BLs)
Fav actor: Joong Archen Aydin (My fav actor changes often, and Joong is my current obsession. Check out his latest drama, The Heart Killers, it will blow your mind hehe)
Fav actress: Shin Hye Sun (Her acting skills are something else. She consistently picks challenging characters to play (blind ballerina, violinist, etc. and she nails them EVERY SINGLE TIME!)
Hobbies: Crocheting and annoying my two cats :3 but I mainly spend my days watching Asian dramas (Korean, Chinese, Japanese, and Thai)
