Those of you that know me know that I have a small addiction to watching Korean dramas (with subtitles of course). Well, at the recommendation of a friend, I started watching an 11 episode Japanese drama called Water Boys last night. (it seemed like a lot more fun than unpacking or doing my laundry)
I got pretty hooked on it, and ended up finishing the who series this afternoon. It was totally addictive.
Basically, the plot (ridiculous as this sounds) focused on a group of 5 Japanese high school seniors that for whatever reason were incredibly passionate about wanting to form a synchronized swimming club and perform at their annual school festival. However, where's the drama in that? As it turns out, the entire school administration is out to get them and the 5 swimmers encounter numerous obstacles along the way, and even a few budding romances.
Although the plot is pretty ridiculous, the whole series was hillarious, entertaining, and kept me totally hooked for all 11 hours. It's definately one of the top 5 dramas I've seen. It's all available on youtube, so check it out.
Here's a bit of episode 1:
Anyway, it's back to work tomorrow :(
