Be it Korean, Japanese, Taiwanese or even Malaysian … I just love my drama. And this brings me to the topic of the wonderful satellite TV channels we get from China and around Asia. Although the satellite lets me view many many more Drama’s than I can dream of, channel surfing is a skill which needs to develop with satellite TV because of the crazy number of commercials which they air during and between programmes (most of which are repeated over and over and over and over again).

I’ve stumbled across a lot of great dramas, but one of the major problems is when and where these programs are aired. I remember this great Korean drama called 18 vs 29 and how I would tune in to JXTV and/or Fujian Channel to watch it every weekday. They aired the same episodes on both channels at different times so if you miss one, you can still catch it on the other channel. The problem only occurred when they stopped airing it BEFORE the Drama concluded!?

I thought that SURELY it was purely a mistake, an accident, or maybe the TV station suffered a seizure. After a week or two though, I finally gave up looking for the 18 vs 29 kdrama and settled onto watching the anime, InuYasha , on XingKong. Unfortunately the same thing happened, they stopped airing it before it was concluded! Boo!

The funny thing is that I would go through all this trouble looking for a drama to watch on satellite TV, but in fact, I still have drama which I have yet to even start watching on DVD!
