Hi! The first jdrama I watched was a long time ago. It could have been in the late 80s to mid 90s - all I remember was I was schooling then.

The story is about this girl and her quest to be a pianist. That's all I remember of the story 'cos I was pretty young then. I remembered that I really loved it. I still remember the theme that she used to play. kinda hard to describe. It starts off with the right hand, is in A minor, a 'militant' lively virtuostic piece.

If anyone knows the title of this drama, it'll be great! :applaud:

That's not much to go by. My immediate reaction is the asadora (morning drama) from NHK that was aired in Japan in 1994. If the drama you are talking looked like in came in short bursts (15 minutes each episode) then this could be the one.

Unfortunately it's fairly old so there's not much info floating around.

I remember it was shown in Singapore in the evening. There was also a post-war Jap show called Oshin which used to show here in the mornings... just reminising those days when I was hmm.. younger :dancing:

Someone told me about a dorama which was a love story about a host and his customer, he even gave her a ring but she didn't believe his feelings were real because he was a host kind of deal...

Or the names of any dramas featuring hosts would be appreciated.

I suddenly had this flashback to a series I really really enjoyed watching quite a while ago (7 years), and would appreciate anyone who can help.

I'll try to put as much as I can remember about it. I watched it in Beijing in 2000, which means it was probably released in Japan 1 year or so earlier (1998-1999?). It was about these 2 women, one who was extremely obese, and the other extremely ugly, and this doctor person does face lifts or something on them, and makes both of them beautiful. I think the doctor ended up liking the originally obese one, who liked this guy, but apparently the originally ugly girl had a beef with her, so she stole the guy. The originally ugly girl also got horrible treatment from her family due to her outer apperance or something, and later became an actress after she was prettier and worked in the same company as the other girl.

I think she eventually got pregnant or something w/ the guy she stole from the other girl, and then pushed her mother down the stairs after her mother cheated her of the money. I think I never got a chance to finish the rest of it.

Anyone know what series this is? THANKS!

I forgot what the title was and was wondering if anyone knew. its the one where a girl had to live with her father because her mother died. and her father was some kind of detective i think. he thought she was too old to be her daughter but she was and in the beginning they didn't get a long but they started to get along later in the days. in the introduction i think there is a fish just floating in the screen. any one know.

I'm looking for a dorama that was broadcasted on the japanese television last summer (~july) in the morning/at noon.

Try checking out the "Drama by Season" section on the main page of this forum. You might be able to find it there (reading the synopsis will help). :)

thank you, but I couldn't find it there. Maybe because the drama was aired in the morning/at noon and not (like almost all dramas in the Drama by Season section) in the evening.
