Announcement: Dramabeans is getting a makeover

Attenshons!

A new Dramabeans is on its way! We’ve been talking for months about a redesigned Dramabeans with upgraded features, and we’re excited to inform you that we’re finally (finally!) ready to roll it out this weekend.

We will be making the switch over to the new site this Friday night/Saturday ungodly hours of morning, which means that during the transition period, we will be disabling the commenting functions on the site and not posting new content until we’ve made it over to the other side. Fingers crossed, the new site will be up and running by Saturday (America time zones), and you will be able to resume commenting on posts.

On the new and improved Dramabeans, you’ll also be able to sign up for accounts, configure profile pages, and more good stuff, which we will explain in more detail once we make the crossover. Till then, wish us good luck!

when I saw the headline, I thought you'd change your approach in reading dramas (which, for me, is a welcome change). but then I realized you'll only change the website design.

So excited! There are a number of sites/blogs that I keep up with, but this is the only one whose community I'd consider myself a part of. (Recently I've posted a lot more comments here than on my own social media! I mean, I almost never post on social media these days, but still. The point stands.) Can't wait to try out all the new features! ^.^

Readily packing up for the new home:

Username - CHECK
Dramas - CHECK
Oppas - CHECK
Hot ajusshis - CHECK
Truck of doom - CHECK
Subway - CHECK

Looking forward for that presumably bigger living room for our future drama-bickerings and a kitchen full of Subways.

Dramabeans has always been my safe place, and the only community I participated in for the past 8 years (albeit not regularly). So yay! for our new home!!

Please promise us to not go allkpop on us. Sticks to recaps and weekly news update like usual (unless there's an urgent breaking news - not including dating/breaking-up gossips). We don't need dramatic-unnecessary-chopped-subjective-biassed-clickbait news.
Conratulation on your make-over and all the prayers for a better and more fun community site!

No worries! Dramabeans is like the cozy coffee shop of K-entertainment sites. Or at least that's how I always picture it. (Allkpop would be like.. a drive-through? I guess? Maybe I'm taking this too far...) Anyway, Dramabeans is a place to curl up by the fire and talk/think things over. If they start clickbaiting, I'll know something has gone horribly wrong.

Hi guys, this is my first time making a comment. Wanted to say something before the change. I'm so afraid of change but I can usually get behind it after the fact. I've been lurking for about eight months and this community saved my life during a particularly difficult period when I couldn't sleep, couldn't eat, was afraid to leave my home or see anyone. And with the help of this community and my family I'm so much stronger and much better. Still have have the occasional nightmares but I'm working on it. Anyway I wanted to say thank you for saving my life, seriously I can't express how much this site helped me. I love you guys. Congratulations on the changes.

I hope the change is a good change! I'm missing this format already lol. Please let it be an improved version with the same warmth..not some soompi or allkpop type.(I like those too but it doesn't have the same feel)
Anyway,good luck Beanie mamas!?

Yes @Candy! Not soompi or allkpop like. The reason I like this site is because of the warmth it gives off. It all feels very personal. I love it and I'll miss this old format,very much.

Happy that you're upgrading, I hope it'll make your work and and the viewers experience easier and more enjoyable. BUT please don't get too big, it's one tiny(of the many other reasons) reason I love to come here instead of the other gigantic and chaotic places on the net. GOOD LUCK. Fighting!

Eeeeeeeppppp!! Can't wait!! This is soooo exciting! Now I'm gonna have more reasons to stay on Dramabeans longer than usual, haha. Wishing the DB team the best of luck and may the transition/makeover be a successful one that makes all the kdrama leads' do the double take/stare intently/jaw drop reaction! Y'know what I mean? Anyways, good luck, good luck!!

So many memories from the past 10 years. I found Dramabeans in 2006/2007 after I first watched Full House and have been here since. I remember when it was just Javabeans and she was still doing subtitling for WITHS2. I used to use Eva and now hoping my name isn't taken! Looking forward to the changes and getting notifications that my messages have replies!!

Hooray - and I have experience implementing new systems so sending you lots of good luck. Am hoping that it will include a feature to receive notification of comment posts in >Selected threads and of specific replies to (your) user. Either way congratulations on the upgrade. Cheers!

Very cool! I've been reading the site for years but rarely commented because you don't get notifications of replies. I usually enjoy when older sites get an update on their look, so I'm excited to see what the change will bring.
