I'm really grateful to the person who subbed this drama. I really wanted to watch it, and the subber made it possible. Thank you very much!

what a great article. Thanks so much.

ooh, revenge. My favorite genre. Looking forward to this.

Why is this rated so poorly when not a single episode has aired yet?

I was surprised that the reaction to having Bella get married at 19 was so . . .minimal, really. I think it would be somewhat louder now, but even outside Mormon culture, the wider American culture would still prefer marriage to premarital sex even for *people who are 19 (*does not apply to boys.)

I'm glad that you wrote the explanation (which I knew already but was most reluctant to say for sensitivity reason.)

What you said.
That series, especially the last book in the series (name mercifully forgotten), was awful. The author was so appalled by the idea of premarital sex, she married the FL off at 19. Made me want to pop her one with a banana cream pie.

Thanks for the article!

Meh. Except for Kingdom coming to Netflix, ain't none of these very interesting. I hope the 2nd half of the year is better or else I'm headed for a drama slump.

With out doubt, the best Cdrama I've ever watched. Outstanding performances, direction, cinematography, writing and costumes. In 6 months, I'm going to watch all 70 episodes again. If I can wait that long. This is a Hall of Fame drama.

Two or three of them will get subbed. Of the three which are subbed, one will only be subbed for 8 episodes, leaving two episodes unfinished. But that's okay, because the two that are completely subbed will be the two you least wanted to see. If Viki licenses any of them, they'll be on the "coming soon" page until your children graduate from college.

Many. It must be adapted (re-adapted?) at least once or twice per year until we are all ded. :-)

Looks intense. I hope one of the Thai angelsubbers takes this on, but it isn't a romantic comedy so I'm not that optimistic.

yet another Japanese drama where the subber stops work with only one or two episodes to finish. I can't with Jdramas anymore.

The subbing on the first season is still unfinished (as far as I know) and it's been years now. I thought about learning the language so I could finish the last few unsubbed episodes. But no.

okie dokie, but what is the drama actually about, now that we know what it isn't about?

looks good but with a high risk for a sad ending.

SATC is a celebration of women, and American women at that. This is not a drama that can be successfully ported to countries with little or no concept of women's sexual freedom. Korea can produce a drama about the friendship between four women--even four dynamic, beautiful, powerful women--and their love for a city (what, Seoul?), but it won't be about women's ownership of their own sexuality and their joyous expression of it. I mean, can you imagine Park Shin Hye with her famous open-eyed, rigid pecks as Samantha?

Two reasons: either DramaFever was not profitable (or profitable enough to outweigh whatever licensing difficulties DramaFever was encountering, such as Kocowa) or the parent company, Warner whatever, wants to repackage/reboot Asian and other programming or spin it off.

Or both.

There is a market for Asian programming. The issue is cutting through the licensing difficulties and designing a model that ensures profitability.

aw. Memory loss. The screenwriter is a hack.

That first episode, tho. What a mess.
