NYC. It's a concrete jungle, out here.
Avid movie and drama watcher. A bit critical of what I watch.
Got into East Asian entertainment/media through Korean/Chinese/Filipino American friends from high school way, way back (my parents are immigrants from India!).
First Kpop song that I ever listened to was Se7en's "Passion". First jdrama I ever watched was "1 Litre of Tears". First kdrama that I ever watched was "Sweet 18". Frankly, it's been a long time ... but I started this journey young. :)
Now, my kpop fever has died down (but I do get nostalgic at times) and I am much more discerning with what I watch.
