Dorama Starter Pack para sa Waay pa Nayanggaw

Updated: Aug 22, 2021

May kinaiya man ang dorama that carves its own niche in drama universe. Japanese television dramas, also known as Jdrama or simply dorama, are basically TV programs that are broadcast or aired daily on Japanese television. Ang nauyunan ko sa doramas is that mugot lang sanda... garing dasuk-dasuk man gawa kada episode. They’re usually only one season long and about 10-12 episodes lang and each episode runs for an average of 60 minutes (more or less). While there are some shows that have long runs or multiple seasons (i. g. Code Blue), they’re not as common. What’s great about that is you don’t get stuck in one type of story or character set — you can binge through one show, and then jump to a new one! Dasigay lang. Garing kis-a kinanlan mo gid tutukan kada minuto hay nagkiwi lang ang kiray ka character, lawig dun nga narrative ang ginsaysay. Waay gaharambal mo, gatinurukay lang mga tonto da...dason mauran.

Ang dorama angay gid sa mga omnivore pareho ko (nga nagralaon dlang ka lantaw) who likes to consume as many dramas as I can. Dorama is life.



Here are some doramas para sa beginners. Kalabanan ka dya gi mga light romances (of the hetero kind, apologies again sa mga BL fans) with distinctly Japanese flavors. Gani indi mag expect too much sa skinship, mapaslawan ka lang.
