let me put it this way...i watch azn shows because they are 1) short
2) simple and love oriented
3)they have a lot of talentd eye candy.

unfortunately when it comes to chinese shows ...they are usually long (54 episode is the shortest i have seen yet), actors are not very goodlooking usually and the stories are as big a mess as ekta shows so i have to motivation to see them or even check them out. incidntally most of the are historic in nature which is another downer.

I used to watch Chinese dramas since i live in HK. I used to find it interesting and i'm quite familiar with the faces of Hong Kong Entertainment ppl. Unfortunately I don't remember the name of the dramas I watched! Right now, I don't think theres any good chinese dramas. 'In the past, there was this story of childhood friends (girl (she was blind) & boy). But the boy went away to another city/country. When he came back he wanted to cure her eyes but she didn't know he was her childhood friend'...blah blah...I'm tired of writing. Anyways, their dramas are long unlike J/K/Tw Dramas. I prefer chinese movies though. They're funny! forget about chinese dramas and go for chinese movies!
