Anybody still remember the struggle with watching k-dramas back in 2000s? 🤣🤣🤣

Before Netflix, Hulu, Viu, and Viki there were those shady places where you weren’t sure what you downloaded was the real deal HA 😂 I was going through my old stuff and found my beloved Coffee Prince CDs. So how many people can say they were obsessed with CP at this level? 😅

    I didn’t burn drama CDs, I do remember going through hoops and loops to watch them. Back in the day, fansubs had their own rules how to watch the dramas with their subs and I was forced to learn and adapt to all of them!!! I still have the early dramas saved on my hard drives. They are a reminder of a time i worked so hard just to watch them!

      Exactly! Finding the subs that fit with the video was tiring! I felt victorious just to have been able to find the right thing. Maybe that’s why we didn’t skip or drop dramas back then because of all the effort we put into finding subbed k-dramas.

        Now that I think about it, you are right!! I barely ff and drop dramas back then! Even my most despised dramas, I finished them. The time and effort I put in just to watch those hated dramas definitely factored to finishing it

    I remember it well! and still have tons of shows sitting around in piles of DVDs. And don’t forget all the downloading of OSTs, I spent hours on those 😁 That’s actually a very happy memory.
