YAY!!! I’m finally a noble idiot (never thought I’d ever say those words in my life lol)! And now I leave you with my favorite noble idiot from (one of) my favorite drama ❤
Are you watching this for the first time? If so then let me warn you, get your eyes ready cuz they are about to go dry from too much crying in the next episodes.
If you already know what happens next then you are already prepared lol. 😛
I had started the series a long time ago but dropped out of K-dramas in general because I was so busy and I ended it just before this moment. If this isn’t the end then I’m going to have cried a river by the end of this drama 🙁
I’ve never been so angry and more angry with a K-dramaland death in my whole entire K-drama watching career than this one…. And to this day, I’m still upset about it T.T More upset than the WTF-ery that was pulled for the ending of “God’s Gift – 14 Days”
I’ve only been watching K-dramas for about 6-7 months now (lol) and I can understand why!! I cried so much and I felt so much anger after watching that episode…
**ANYONE WHO WATCHES DRAMAS ON VIKI**
Attached is a list of dramas that will be unlicensed by the end of this month. If any of your favorites are on this list, I would recommend bingeing like crazy!!!
Hopefully, I would like to watch them there… The timed comments were the best parts about watching a drama on Viki. Some of the comments were hilarious so it added to the dramas. I just wish that these dramas didn’t have to go. A lot of them are really popular and for new K-drama watchers it’s kind of like a ritual to watch the classics LOL
Why do titles leave Viki?
-Viki acquires licensing rights for TV shows and movies for a certain period of time, not indefinitely.
-When the TV show or movie is no longer available, the licensing agreement has ended with the content provider.
-Other issues outside of our control regarding music rights, syndication deals, amongst others.
Whenever a TV show or movie is expiring, we evaluate whether or not to renew it using the same criteria we apply to potential new content.
Some factors considered are the following:
-Are the rights to renew the licensing to stream still available?
-What is the popularity and cost of a particular title?
-Are there other factors to consider like seasonality, etc.?
I don’t understand how this is happening at all! The fact that so many dramas are losing their licenses make me really sad and I didn’t realize that this happened as well!
So I was bored and thought wouldn’t it be a good idea to make a graph of the ups and downs in the comment sizes of Ruler? I especially love that steep downhill…
LOL I’m the same as you except I’m in high school! I really like graphs for some reason so I decided to make this 🙂 I just used Google Drawing, inputted the data from DB, then copied and pasted on my wall, nothing fancy at all ^_^
That’s part of the main reason I’m watching it. I had started it a while before but then got swept up in other parts of my life that I forgot about it! I’m really sad that a lot of dramas are losing their license 🙁
I’m a fairly new kdrama watcher (about 5 months now) and with all of these classics leaving viki I’m really confused! There are so many who enjoy watching those shows that it really makes no sense in my mind. Especially the fact that since all the segments and subtitles are done by volunteers, all of their work is going to waste!
After 4 days of bingeing, I have completed City Hunter. I finished it maybe 5 minutes ago and I already feel withdrawal symptoms. Every episode had me going “OHMYGOD” and I’m just a mess right now ❤
Whenever you have the time, you should really watch this drama! The couple is really cute together and the story is amazingly written. Though, if you don’t like noble idiots beware!
Congratulations to the co-leader (in my mind) of the Lookout squad, Lee Si Young!! She’s 4 months pregnant and getting married in Sept!! I’m so happy for her and hope everything goes well ❤️
I need a friend group like the Fantastic Four. They are all so cute! Not even 5 minutes have passed and I’m already feeling withdrawal symptoms… why’d it have to end D:
Dear Lookout,
You made me cry, laugh, scream, terrified, and glad. I’m going to miss everything that you offered truly and dearly. If you do come back, please be just as awesome ❤️
-A broken down mess
I just finished this show and I’ve got to say the best show I’ve binged in a while! This drama was so fun to watch and this couple is so cute together mygod ❤️❤️
I loved this couple so much while watching. The whole storyline was amazing and I loved the depth each character had. Healer is going to be one of my favorite shows for a while.
Okay, this guy just creeps me out so much. But, it makes me wonder: is having a teen murderer/sociopath a new theme? I mean there’s Solomon’s Perjury, this one (Lookout), and the upcoming School 2017
During the first half of episode 33, I got so emotional. With HG dying (she was my favorite character!) and her father staying at her side, I felt their pain. Also, Gon is the best bodyguard <3
Hwa-goon did a complete 180 for me. I actually ended up appreciating and liking her a lot.
Dae-mok’s a monster for killing his own granddaughter. Poor Hwa-goon’s dad… I feel so bad for him that his precious daughter is no longer in his world. As for Gon, dude’s loyal, that’s for sure. He and Chung-woon are the best bodyguards!
Same! In the beginning, I didn’t care for her at all. I wanted to skip all of her scenes, but now I’m missing her a lot! I want a bodyguard like Gon or Chung-woon to keep me away from all danger 😍 LOL
Yeah, she really grew on us. *sniffs* You’re missed, Hwa-goon!
HA, I don’t come into a lot of danger here, but I wouldn’t mind a personal bodyguard in the form of a good-lookin’, tall man, with like, the best swordsmanship.

I guess the only way to stop it is if you fill out Title Request Forms to stop them from taking it down
