A while ago, my sister started watching Asian dramas.  And though she mentioned it briefly, I didn't pay a whole lot of attention to it until I was disappointed with Netflix's options for new movies out this Christmas. (Christmas With A View being a major exception to that disappointment, but after I had watched it five times I was ready for something else.)
