Gosh, I think that's weird toooo! xD DVD shouldn't cut out things-----OH WAIT!! Did you get the DVD in CHINA or other places in Asia that sells bootlegs?? Cause, if you did;; then that's the reason why. If you got the *real* DVD version, it will not cut out all those IMPORTANT scenes: such as the part where she kissed him!! xD But I understand that buying the REAL series is really expensive... *sighs*

Asian countries are *now* making DVD instead of VCD---to make it "seem" like as if the copy you brought is real;; but in reality, it's not.

Is this drama out in Vietnamese yet? If so, what is the Vietnamese title? I'm also looking for the Vietnamese titles for Devil Beside You, Mr. Fighting, Chinese Paladine, and Green Forest, My Home. Thank you for the information.

well... i know the taiwanese version of the VCD put each episode at 45min each... dats why there are 30 episodes instead of the TV version with only 20 episodes... the TV version is 1hr 15min per episode...

i dunno about the china version though...

he is studying in XinWu university together with mike he, xiao tian and zaizai
doing media course



hello! im new here and i've been reading this thread for like a week now! (cause it has sooo many pages and i'm like on page 77) and i'm sorry if this is kinda spamming.... but i just really really wanna share this pic because i've seen this pic b4 in one of zaizai's thread (because at first i'm only a zaizai's fan ) and didn't know mike and joe b4 because i've never seen "love contract" nor "ISWAK" at that time.... and after seeing this pic i said to myself that this school is so lucky because not only that they've got zaizai but it's not bad to have other hot guys as your classmate... and now this is a major info for me because now im a huge fan of these three hot guys! WOAH! really can't beleive that they will be in one room! OMG i really reallly really envy their classmates..... and the reason why i've known ISWAK is bcoz of zaizai too... i've seen ISWAK before but didn't paid much attention to it that time because i really don't understand mandarin but after watching "mars" i kinda got interested in watching taiwanese series so i've tuned in to ctv channel hoping to see an interview or news about zaizai... then this scene occured... the one that xiang qin is being harassed in the bus bus and for me that time joe looks a bit like zaizai so thay've got my attention... so from that day i've been following this series even if i don't understand what they were saying though.... and i just want to thank you guys for subbing this because it really made a big difference having the subs..... thank you! thank you! thank you! this thread gave me a lot of infos and insights and so much more.... i just wanna say that i think all the people in this thread are the nicest people i've ever known (really! i sincerely think you guys are great! can't find enough words to thank you!)

nweiz, i just wanna share this story of how i've become a fan of ISWAK.... and to thank you guys for having this thread and everything... smile.gif smile.gif smile.gif smile.gif smile.gif smile.gif

HI ya'll!

I was wondering... are there missing scenes from ISWAK? I see all this pics and gifs of joe and ariel that are not in the drama. I watched the drama repeatedly for these scenes, but can't find them. Are they a prelude to ISWAK 2? I have all 20 eps + the special + OST, is there more? Where can I get these scenes? The pics I posted are the scenes, I'm talking about.



Thanks in advance for your help. I think I must be addicted to this show :dede:


You know waht?? I *TOTALLY* thought it was part of ISWAK tooooooooooooooooooooo! x_____________X I was like: "Yes!! This is tooooooo CUTE! infatuated.gif Can't wait to see it in the series..." AND, after finishing watching it I was like: "That's not in it!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!" shock.gif Grrrrrr! I LOVE LOVE LOVE LOVE LOVE the part where Ariel gives him the balloon and OMGOSH, especially the bus scene....toooo cute! So sad that it wasn't in the series. Oh well, I STILL LOVE IT like CRAZY!! GO JOE AND ARIEL FOREVER AND EVER!!!!!!!! dance.gif hug.gif

*spoilers

Oh yes.. im almost nearing the end of the drama, awww its so saddd.. i saw the previews and i was bawling my eyes out... and its only the preview! i didn't think it was possible haha but yea... is this made from the same manga as devil beside you? because i've noticed that every conflict is like the ones in DBY.. first with the love letter, then they suddenly move in together, then an younger guy asks her out from nowhere, then there was the arrange marriage.. exactly like DBY =| but i still liked it =)

^^^Yeah the ISWAK OST is really nice! The songs are very good!

Um, where is your mall?? [As in what country did you get it in?] LOL Because, I don't really know about American malls selling them... But you said your DVD looks exactly like the original;; well yeah, it usually is because that's how people can sell them because most people think it's real. The price is another difference. IF your DVD costed a lot, it would usually mean it's the REAL one;; but if it was pretty cheap--then it's fake. Of course, people can make fake ones and charge it for a HIGH price...

But you DO know that you can just go to youtube.com and watch the ENTRIE series there??? hehe, that's where I saw mines, since I have no resources to get it!! x_____X Well, hope you get to finish watching it soooon!! =)

reallyy? was the cover pink? because the only two boxsets ive seen so far for this drama is an orange cover and a blue cover.. the orange one is the chinese subtitle and the blue one is the one with english subtitle.

gosh...i order this drama on ebay like a week and a half ago and it still aint here yet.....i really want to see it but i have to wait until it gets hea...and that sucks.....hope it get hea soon..

I watched It Started With a Kiss a couple of times on youtube. I love it. It is almost as good as Metoer Garden, almost. I'm watching Goong right now which is a Korean drama.

yesasia.com has the pink version you're talking about - the taiwanese version but it's pretty expensive .. it comes in 3 parts because they were released at different times after a certain amount of episodes .. yesasia also has a china version which is like .. so much more cheaper than the taiwanese version and it's dvd too but i'm not sure if it has any missing scenes .. the website for it is : http://global.yesasia.com/en/PrdDept.aspx/...pid-1004124491/ .. it has 35 episodes and i don't know why because it seems like it has added scenes or something then .. lol .. does anyone know why or whether this version has missing scenes in it ?! thanks ^^
Monchii
woww, no kidding.. buying dramas err.. anything from yesasia is like an arm and a leg lol.. is the pink boxset packaged better? like the dvds are in their own little plastic case? hmm.. does anyone know if Joe speaks english or not? its so cool.. the school has 3 famous people going to their school >< damnn... lol their all hotties too shock.gif

Does anyone have the NG takes and the behind the scenes for this drama? or know where to buy it?
mac_mac1031
i got it started with a kiss from yesasia.. and i got the taiwanese version.. it comes with behind the scenes and everything.. for taiwanese series its always better to buy the taiwanese version.. cos its much safer that way that ur not missing anything out from the series.. but the 2 fotos that monchii have put on..i have seen before in some vcd/dvd shops.. and one of my friends got it after watching it from mine.. cos she said she didnt want to get it over the internet and wait.. and she has rewatched saying thay there is no difference.. my friend got the one with ariel and joe hugging each and ariel wearing a wedding dress(1st pic).. i hope it helped...

Ah .. DON'T BUY EBAY ENGLISH VERSION. I bought it and its absolutely horrible. A small portion of the bottom is cut off... you know where subs are suppose to be? Well, they just black it out completely and put HORRIBLE subs in. I'm not Chinese, but I can tell that the subs are translated almost word for word... And there were lots of spelling errors. It was just absolutey ridiculous, you can barely understand what they're trying to translate.. I'm trying to get some sort of refund back.
The version I downloaded online was even better than the Dvd's. So yeah, don't buy ebay version..which is the blue box one pictured above

But you DO know that you can just go to youtube.com and watch the ENTRIE series there??? hehe, that's where I saw mines, since I have no resources to get it!! x_____X Well, hope you get to finish watching it soooon!! =)



ya...i hope tat i get to finish watching the whole series soon...i have tried watching it on you tube..but it just takes too long to download...i m now saving money to buy another set of this series...hopefully this one will be the complete box set...

reallyy? was the cover pink? because the only two boxsets ive seen so far for this drama is an orange cover and a blue cover.. the orange one is the chinese subtitle and the blue one is the one with english subtitle.




the one that i have..the cover is pink...but then again i may be cheated by the dvd seller...so guys beware of where you get your boxset from...i have checked out at different shops...and some of them do sell the pink colour boxset but it is the complete series (according to the shop person)...but so far all the the box sets that i have seen in the shops are pink in colour...so i think that because Malaysia was pretty slow in getting the whole series...the dvd seller probably sold me two original dvd and the third part is recorded from some place therefore there was a huge gap of the series missing...but not too worry too much...that doesnt mean that all boxes that are pink in colour is a faker...becos my friend just recently bought the series and her box was pink as well..but it was the whole complete series...including the NGs...JUST BECAREFUL of which shop you get it from...

i got it started with a kiss from yesasia.. and i got the taiwanese version.. it comes with behind the scenes and everything.. for taiwanese series its always better to buy the taiwanese version.. cos its much safer that way that ur not missing anything out from the series.. but the 2 fotos that monchii have put on..i have seen before in some vcd/dvd shops.. and one of my friends got it after watching it from mine.. cos she said she didnt want to get it over the internet and wait.. and she has rewatched saying thay there is no difference.. my friend got the one with ariel and joe hugging each and ariel wearing a wedding dress(1st pic).. i hope it helped...


ohh hmm... well i'd get the taiwanese version because of the NG's and everything.. but the probably is, i don't think it has english subtitles.. ahah the only one that has english subtitles is the blue cover... and thats the one i ordered.. ahh Alygator.. don't scare me ahah i ordered it about a week ago.. >< anywho, yea.. i reallyyyy want to see the NG and the behind the scenes.. thats like the most interesting part hahah Mac, is it possible for you to rip it off and upload? im really looking forward to the NG takes! clapping.gif thank you very much for informing us about the other boxsets =)

Eh I think the absolutely horrible subs were just one of the disks or something. I don't know why the movie looks different when I put it in another time...maybe it was my computer.
I guess they're not completely useless dvds BUT I still think the subtitles are a lot worse than the version I downloaded online. And it is a little cut off at the bottom... not just resized..because I compared it to the ones online and you can tell its not the full picture. For example..if its a close up of Joe...the picture will cut off a little of his chin...something like that... Some people may not notice but I do and it's annoying..you be the judge and tell me if it'd different for you. I left a negative feedback for the seller, maybe I was too harsh?? lol.

Yup, it's a very addicting drama. It's one of the few drama that I started re-watching right after I finished. And I watch the ending like 7 times. It just soooooo good!

MOnchii... its no problem for me to rip it and upload it.. but when it comes to comps im really dumb.. thats why i always end up buying my series instead of dling of the internet...hahhaa... but if u can teach me how to do it and wat programs i need.. it should be no problem.. it just might take a lil while thats all.. i would like to learn myself aswell.. so i can upload stuff for u guys...
