Ive been watching a lot lately. Like Over 100 hour long episodes of different dramas. Very addicting. For the other few that like them, here is a good site that has english subtitles subbed. www.mysoju.com
Helps you pick up a few korean words as well.

Heres a funny clip of the one im currently watching called Smile you.

Been trying to keep up with Take Care of the Young Lady. Really addictive. Gotta love My Soju for it.

I don't know if it's my internet connection, but mysoju.com seems to have bad files. They are really blurry and skip or freeze.
Also, I noticed that some episodes are :30 long, when obviously they should be 6-7 minutes.

Can you suggest other good sites for dramas with subs?

How is dramacrazy.net? It seems that they have the same files as mysoju.com, so those episodes are short, choppy, and blurry, too.

The best website for watching asian dramas/movies is aznv.tv

There's also a bit of anime on there.

They're streamed through either winamp or VLC. Sadly, now-a-days you can only get in via invite only. Accounts do not have unlimited invitations.

[/edit] sorry out of invites atm. I those who were sent invites got them and subsequently activated them/are now enjoying them.

I haven't been watching anything lately, but I'll start Lady Castle (which has a different Korean name now). I've gotta finish Gundam Wing first though and finish rewatching Kim Sam Soon.

I agree, I know what I'll be doing on Wednesday and Thursday nights from now on!

(Well, unless something better comes up...)

I have ttwo accounts, one from before they made the switch. I have a total of six invitations.

If interested in an account, please PM me with your email address. First come first serve.

Because I only get limited invitations, please PM me only if you'll actually USE this account. I want to spread the joy of asian movies and dramas with those who like them or are interested.

I cant pm yet. If you happen to read this and still have invitations please toss pass one this way!! [email protected] Thanks!!

Would anyone happen to know a site/method that allows you to download dramas/movies with English subs embedded?

Most Korean dramas come with soft subs, I might be wrong but I don't think there's a way to fuse the subtitles and video together (unless you resub the whole thing yourself with hardsubs)

Also - IRIS is so drool worthy! I just finished the third episode today.

I watch mysoju all of the time.
There are more K-dramas on crunchyroll.com, maybe some j-dramas. I also watch some on veoh.com.
I go to livejournal.com to download cartoon KAT-TUN episodes, but I don't know how to find other dramas.

Sooo, apparently I can't send you pm's because I have under 25 posts. But I am a JE lover. Mainly KAT-TUN and NEWS, minus Tegochi and Ueda.

I'm still in the US, but I want to be an ESL teacher for a couple of years. I'm always lurking on sites, like Dave's, to get personal opinions on different countries...
