So it’s originally a Japanese comic strip, adapted by the Taiwanese, and later by Koreans and translated by Filipinos. LOL

A bit of history first: It Started with a Kiss (Chinese: 惡作劇之吻; pinyin: Èzuòjù zhī wěn) is a Taiwanese drama starring Joe Cheng,Ariel Lin and Jiro Wang of Fahrenheit. It was based on the first 10 volumes of the Japanese manga series Itazura na Kiss (イタズラなKiss, Mischievous Kiss) written by Kaoru Tada. It was produced by Comic Productions and directed by Chu Yu-ning .

It was broadcast on free-to-air China Television (CTV) (中視) in Taiwan from 25 September 2005 to 12 February 2006, every Sunday at 22:00 and cable TV Gala Television (GTV) Variety Show/CH 28 (八大綜合台) 31 September 2005 to 18 February 2006, every Saturday from 21:30 to 23:00.

It is the second live-action television adaptation following the Japanese adaptation also titled Itazura na Kiss and followed by its sequel They Kiss Again in 2007 and South Korean adaptation Playful Kiss in 2010. It Started With a Kiss also aired on Hawaii's KIKU Television weekly on Saturdays at 6:00.



Seriously, I really enjoyed watching this asian comic drama. Its very funny, quite of a nonsense but you'll end up laughing. Also, it was dubbed by filipinos in its Philippine airing so a lot of pinoys can already relate and understand. I watched the series one boring night and still, it made me laugh.
