Finding Subtitled Dramas


I must admit sometimes it is hard to find english subtitled Asian Dramas. Most of the time, the internet is your best friend when it comes to finding english subtitled Asian Dramas. Often, just adding the keywords "Eng Subs" into Google helps a lot.
YouTube isn't that good with finding Asian Dramas. Sometimes your best bet is checking out Asian Drama websites like:



But like watching movies over the internet, you can never be too careful with those websites. They can give your computer viruses. Sometimes even, you cannot find what you are looking for, often because they go by another name that you cannot remember to save yourself. All the dramas I review, I will link the page in which I watched them online.


Have you ever had that time where you just really want the hardcopy/DVD of the Asian Drama rather than just watching it all online? Buying them online is great but then there is the inconvenience of waiting for it to come to you. Its like waiting for another new season of your favourite television show to come out. As you probably already know, I live in Canberra, Australia and if you live here too, the next option is taking a trip into Sydney's Chinatown and looking for Asian Dramas there. But going to Sydney feels like such a hassle sometimes.

So, if you live in Canberra like me and looking for cool Asian Dramas and stuff, here's a little gem for you!

There's a store called "Hollywood Entertainment" in Dickson (or what one would call "Canberra's ChinaTown"). You can get all sorts of different Asian thingy and thing-a-ma-bobs from the latest KPOP Album to Old Asian Drams and even little novelty figures, cushions and posters such as Naruto, Death Note, One Piece, etc.



I have gotten a couple things here like:
G-DRAGON'S SHINE-A-LIGHT CONCERT, OCTOBER 2010
and
MY GIRLFRIEND IS A GUMIHO

The only downside is that it is a little overpriced but totally worth it if you can go home with a plastic bag in your hand containing your favourite Asian Drama. If you're new to Asian Dramas, make sure you pick one with English Subtitles (if you can't find it, the ladies that work there are REALLY helpful).

CAUTION: There is alway a few Adult DVD there too so watch out.
