I tried watching this drama several years ago, but ended up quitting it. Not because it as awful, but because the video quality was so low and the English subtitles were rather lacking. Now there’s better videos an the subtitles are complete! The earlier episodes have some bad grammar and confusion, but its overall good enough quality to understand what

Really, whenever NeeNee falls hard into a drama, I have a tendency to fall hard for the OST. Of course, there’s always exceptions to the rules, you know? But, I have to say that I love the OST for Chinese drama Cruel Romance. Oh…and before I forget, I’ll post more episode recaps/thoughts a bit more frequently instead of waiting until

It seems like for a few months or more last year on social media, friends kept doing throwback/flashback whatever Thursdays…or was it Fridays… I so wasn’t in the loop, lol. I thought it was only fitting to do a Flashback series in honor of Asian Addicts Anonymous turning five years old this year. So each week for at least the

DramaFever has added yet another School reboot. This one…School 2015. I’ve never watched a single School series. Nope, not me. Also added

This past February Asian Addicts Anonymous turned 5! It’s really an amazing feat in the blogging world. This blog has suffered from an identity crisis, site migration, database crashes, working two jobs, malaise, caring for my ill grandmother, canning, my other hobbies, and my always unpredictable drama-watching habits…and my writing which can be horribly verbose or completely lacking in personality

Yes, this is not an Asian tune. So then why feature it? Because it features Japanese band One Ok Rock’s lead singer Taka! Thanks to One Ok Rock’s Facebook page I discovered this awesome track and this awesome band. It’s been a long time since I’ve listened to a lot of English language songs and I’m happy to discover a

Yes, Korean movies, not dramas. No new dramas. Since last I checked 2013 Korean film Flu starring Jang Hyuk, Soo Ae, and Park Min Ah has been added. This movie follows the chaos of a neighborhood where people are dying like flies thanks to an airborne virus. Also added is Jang Dong Gun’s No Tears for the Dead in which

So if you’ve hung around Asian Addicts Anonymous enough then you know I post stuff about food from time to time. I will go through hours of preparation and cooking to make fairly authentic Asian dishes. And then there’s me totally cheating and making some completely lazy Asian food. This was me being lazy when I had to take my
