Spanner in the works: I Know I Love You
Added 2024-01-03 05:58:46 +0000 UTCHi everyone,
Remember how I said that I'm picking c-drama I Know I Love You to replace Twinkling Watermelon, here on Patreon?
Well, it looks like we've run into a problem.
Basically, the playlist that I found, on Drama Box English, that had better subs, has taken down E8, which they'd just uploaded yesterday, I think.
And, a quick investigation leads me to conclude that they're likely going to stop at E7, because their sister channel, Drama Box Exclusive, has made E8 onwards members-only.
I'm guessing that Drama Box English is hoping to redirect viewers to Drama Box Exclusive, to continue watching the show under their members-only arrangement.
I would be willing to pay the $3 (I think?) that it costs to be a member, BUT, the subs on Drama Box Exclusive look to be completely machine translated, and I think that would be really rough-going, and therefore not fair, for non-Mandarin speakers.
And, Viki is still looking for a channel manager right now, for this show, so it doesn't look like watching it on Viki is going to be a viable option anytime soon.
..Which means that I think I need to look for a different show to cover, instead of I Know I Love You.
I'm really disappointed, because I've watched the first 4 eps, and really like it so far.
I'm not sure what show to pick as a replacement, but it seems that those of you who checked out Marry My Husband (hi Trent!) like it way more than expected, so.. maybe I should give that a look, even though I've also picked the very similarly-themed Perfect Marriage Revenge as a Patreon show..?
Other show suggestions are welcome too, of course.
Really sorry about this, everyone. π
