I never understand the purpose of reservation. Honest curiosity!
Honestly, the only reason I can think of from the platform’s side is that they’re trying to gauge interest—like how many people in a certain region are actually planning to watch. That way, they can decide if it’s worth pushing or even showing there. I imagine hosting each drama still costs them something (servers, licensing, promotion), so this kind of “reservation” system helps them estimate demand ahead of time.
On the production side, it could also be a way to measure how popular a specific drama or its actors are. If a lot of people reserve or show interest, that’s a good signal they might want to invest more in similar projects or cast those actors again.
thank you, I was having a hard time with the subtitles from MangoTV
There are still a few broken subtitles in the later episodes, but they’re manageable—unlike MangoTV English subtitles, which even translate the characters’ names, making things pretty confusing.
Hello Everyone, I have not watched a single drama of his but I am interested after seeing some clips of his in…
If you’re into romance dramas, I highly recommend Love and Redemption and Immortal Samsara for historical settings, and South Wind Knows My Mood if you prefer something modern.
If you’re okay with little to no romance, I’d suggest Mysterious Lotus Casebook, The Vendetta of An, Deep Lurk, Journey of Legend, Sword and Beloved, Stand By Me, and Draw the Line.
I arranged these based on my personal favorites.
Mysterious Lotus Casebook was actually the first drama of his that I watched, and I’ve loved his acting ever since lol. You’ll definitely enjoy the bromance in MLC too!
OMG this drama is so addicting 😭 I was honestly hesitant to start it because I thought the genre wasn’t really my thing, but since it’s Cheng Yi, I gave it a try. Now I’m already on episode 15 and completely hooked… I can’t even focus on my tasks right now 😩

That’s just my guess though 😹
