Was he in your first kdrama, or where did you first see him? There’s an ancient movie called Millionaires First Love where he was a very minor character but jumped off the screen for me, loved him ever since!
I’ve found that iQIYI is extremely stingy about licensing their dramas to other platforms, so it’s rare to find them outside of their app. I finally caved and got a subscription. Tencent and Youku almost always end up on Viki.
Hopefully iQiYi will change their stance if enough people kick up a fuss, because Youku dramas also used to be extremely hard to find outside of their platforms as well and trying to make an account on their international app for a sub to watch their content felt like jumping through hoops
Fangs of Fortune on iQiYi which is a network whom is notorious for having difficult access to their dramas because they’re so exclusive (i.e. Doesn’t share/sell their drama’s streaming rights with another network), much like the network Youku
Yea, for mainstream viewing, both platforms makes it so that you either have to watch it on their app or you have to wait a bit until they release the drama onto YT (only for newer dramas, and even then, not all dramas).
For dark side, you’ll have to dig if you want to find it with subs
I watched the first two episodes of Tail of the Nine Tailed: 1938 for my new podcast. This was one drama that I never considered watching because I remember Beanies having mixed reactions to the storyline. Episodes one and two had some funny moments and some frustrating ones. I am curious to see how I’ll feel about this drama once I’ve watched a few more episodes.
My colleague and I have been watching and discussing Tale of the Nine Tailed for our podcast. This afternoon we will be discussing the final three episodes. This will be my second viewing of TOTNT and the reveal at the end of the final episode still confuses me. What is the purpose of Yeon’s deception? Beanies, any thoughts?
I hope you enjoy it as much as I did! I literally just finished it not even 3 hours ago 🥹🥹🥹
Just keep in mind that some things have to be viewed from the perspective of how things were in society in those times (ancient)
It’s so great to see more and more (Chinese) novels be translated to other languages—most of them, English— so that it’s accessible for more people to read. The only hope is that the translators and publishing houses don’t mess it up (as they did with the English translation for Founder of Diabolism 🥲)

@bebeswtz That sucks. The commercial breaks are constant and makes watching the drama less enjoyable.

@Neolttwigi I did enjoy the first episode. I was watching it on IQIYI but the constant commercial breaks are really annoying.
