  • You're Beautiful

    1. You're Beautiful

    Korean Drama - 2009, 16 episodes

    My first korean drama

    Overall, this was also my first drama.
    I was in an anime slump,  in a need of a gender bender and I kinda stumbled on it on YT with subtitles... EASY PICK :)

    The gender bender concept, the music theme and *cough* the reverse harem *cough* easily won me over, so~~ yup this started my drama journey.
    Actually, it was something totally new and fresh to my eyes that it was really easy to watch (for my 2014 self).
    Up to this day I still have the "Without Words" song stuck in my memory, that's how memorable this is to me.

  • I Give My First Love to You

    2. I Give My First Love to You

    Japanese Movie - 2009

    My first japanese movie

    I don't remember much of the movie itself, I just remember its premise and how I felt after I finished watching it haha.
    Anyways, this was really sad and it really broke me (I cried buckets....) but this didn't stop me from watching tearjerkers.... instead this started a new phase in my drama journey (a long one at that).
    Every friday or saturday night I would purposefully search up tearjerkers/tragedy movies to cry my eyes out cleanse my eyes. It kinda became a ritual lol.

  • Crazy Little Thing Called Love

    3. Crazy Little Thing Called Love

    Thai Movie - 2010

    My first thai movie

    I remember this movie being so cute and fluffy (like first love), I think I also cried a lot!
    One thing I remember for sure is that my young self totally fell head over heels for Mario Maurer (ML), he was just so PERFECT ♥

  • Sound of the Desert

    4. Sound of the Desert

    Chinese Drama - 2014, 35 episodes

    My first chinese drama

    I loved this one A LOT! The music, the costumes, the story were just perfect *chef's kiss*.
    I don't want to give out spoilers.... so I'll write about it at the bottom ;)
    I watched this in the early years of my drama journey and at that time I had that love triangle phase, obviously I always ended up rooting for the wrong guy and had my heart broken lol
    This drama was also what made me a fan of Cecilia Liu and look up more of her dramas (that's how I discovered Scarlet Heart ♡) .


    SPOILERS !! (below with ulterior censoring, just in case)
    She actually ended up with who I thought was the SML, finally the guy I rooted for in a  love triangle ended up with the FL!

  • CJ7

    5. CJ7

    Hong Kong Movie - 2008

    My first hong kong movie

    Alright, so I watched this for the first time on TV as a kid and with my fish memory I hardly remember anything. The only thing that I remember vividly is that fluffy little cutie ♡ haha.
    I didn't even know it was a hong kong movie, but I'll count it as my first nonetheless. Otherwise it would've been Chungking Express (iconic).

  • Love Sick

    6. Love Sick

    Thai Drama - 2014, 12 episodes

    My first thai drama

    Long story short, my fujoshi friend brought me into the BL world (the same friend who introduced me to dramas, a good friend indeed!) and that's how I ended up watching Love Sick.
    At the time I wasn't really picky about dramas and I literally survived Boys Over Flowers (which I don't think I could now....) anyways, the awkward acting didn't stop me.
    The main couple was so cute and endearing to watch, but it's not all about cute and fluffy stuff the drama also delved into more dark issues of students' lives.

    Up to this day I still watch thai BLs because they're my standard of BL (though chinese, taiwanese and even japanese and korean BLs now are interesting options).

  • Switch Girl!!

    7. Switch Girl!!

    Japanese Drama - 2011, 8 episodes

    My first japanese drama

    As an avid fan of the manga I really couldn't pass this one and yep it was my first japanese drama (if we don't count power rangers I watched on TV as a kid, never completed it though).

    Faithful to the manga it didn't fail me to make me laugh!

  • Secret

    8. Secret

    Taiwanese Movie - 2007

    My first taiwanese movie

    I don't remember much of it as I watched it long time ago but the music and the overall atmosphere of the movie were so captivating that I still remember this one particular scene with the piano.

  • She's Dating the Gangster

    9. She's Dating the Gangster

    Filipino Movie - 2014

    My first filipino movie

    Everyone's first filipino movie, I guess haha.
    Just as many said in the comments, when I started this I was expecting a cringey romantic story in a rosy plate but a plate with a box of tissues and a little candy was what I actually got served. Not that it's bad, though :')

  • Romantic Princess

    10. Romantic Princess

    Taiwanese Drama - 2007, 13 episodes

    My first taiwanese drama

    I literally have almost near to no recollection about this.... apart from it being a reverse harem (my taste in reverse harem was still going strong haha).

    Anyways the opening song is beautiful, I bet it will stick in your mind for a while if you listen to it (here's the link Fahrenheit & SHE - OST Opening Romantic Princess - Xin Wo 新窩 - YouTube )

  • Innocent Steps

    11. Innocent Steps

    Korean Movie - 2005

    My first korean movie

    This was hard (My little bride could also be my first movie.... either way it's probably this or that and the other is my second movie). I really liked Moon Geun Young (FL) so I remember looking her movies.

    And again I'm at a loss, my memory doesn't really help me out here....

  • Suddenly Seventeen

    12. Suddenly Seventeen

    Chinese Movie - 2016

    My first chinese movie

    So here's the thing, I came to the conclusion this was my first chinese movie by exclusion (probably not accurate).

    The synopsis is exactly what I know/remember about this.
