Machines bore me. Whenever I watch the History channel it's always about the Romans, or the Colonial period, or Queen Elizabeth. Once it reaches WWII my interest wanes.

I really prefer fantasy stories set in the past because it just feels better for me. I'm not sure why...I think I'm partially frightened of big, neverending space.

Hmmm...I don't know any subbers, because I've never had to worry about Cdramas in that aspect, and I can read the Chinese subtitles. Sorry. It's so old (1997) that I doubt they'd still be out. Meh.
