Fans of all sorts are present everywhere we turn. There are fans of television shows, fans of movies, fans of books, and of course fans of video games. According to Wikipedia a person who is "enthusiastically devoted to something, such as a band, a sports team or entertainer." Secretly, whether we are willing to admit it to ourselves in the light of day, or only in the shadows of night, we are all fans of something.
My poison of choice is
ASIAN DRAMAS! From
Secret Garden to
On Call 36, I get excited and follow all of the latest Asian dramas. I try my best to make it a weekly chore that I go onto various Asian web forums and get the latest on current Asian dramas that are playing. I mostly watch Hong Kong dramas, and can spend hours on end during the weekends watching dramas. I also love finding out the latest news on the celebrities of the shows. I will be first to find out if a drama star is getting married, fired from a gig, or secretly starting an underground relationship.
As Asian dramas are created slightly different from American dramas, they usually are aired on networks for the duration of only one season. It is rare that a second season of a drama will be picked up a network. A lot of times new dramas are created that are slight spin-offs of the themes of previous dramas, but they rarely continue with the plot.
The largest media network conglomerate in Hong Kong is TVB. TVB produces and broadcast all of their original dramas on through their various stations, and their dramas are all filmed at TVB city. A dream of mines is to visit TVB city and see the different sets that films are created at. I wold love to see some of the old-age sets where timed dramas are filmed. Asian dramas are my
LOVE and
ADDICTION. I am a die hard fan, and cannot resist keeping up with the latest news on the dramas or the stars.
