Good news for all the Korean drama addicts out there! I was browsing Netflix yesterday afternoon, when I discovered that Korean dramas are now available on instant play.
As of now, the list is small, consisting of some of the most popular and recent dramas: Boys Over Flowers, Playful Kiss, My Princess, Tamra Island, City Hunter, Goodbye Miss Ripley, Lie To Me, Midas, Bad Boy, and Road Number One.
I’m sure in the coming months, Netflix will expand the list and include some of the most popular dramas like My Lovely Kim Sam Soon, Coffee Prince, and Stairway to Heaven. I could seriously watch those three over and over again, and with Netflix’s commercial free streaming, I would get on it in a heart beat.
Hulu.com also has free streaming to 64 Korean drama classics including: You’re Beautiful, Secret Garden (a personal favorite), Shining Inheritance, Iris, The Great Queen Seon Deuk, Pasta, Sungkyunkwan Scandal, Chuno, Cinderella’s Sister, and My Girlfriend is a Nine-Tailed Fox.
But of course, you can always browse Dramafever.com, Mysoju.com, and Dramacrazy.net to get your daily dose of Korean, Japanese, and Taiwanese dramas (movies are also included).
So Lovelies, are you as excited as I am about this?

hulu is annoying bc of the ads
guest
Ew.
guest
Woo! Yeah, I’m happy!
guest
neat. I love Korean dramas! My favorite is “Full House”. I also love “Boys Over Flowers”. Do they have English subtitles on netflix? I watch all my Korean dramas on mysoju.com
guest
HOLY CRAP SO EXCITED!!! Do they have Winter Sonata?! If yes then SCORE! I love everything Korean…especially boys. :p
guest
haha nice, but I like Japanese dramas better.
guest
I’ve watched asian dramas in all languages by reading the subtitles. I’m mostly a fan of hong kong dramas(they have investigative stories similar to CSI/CIS tv shows), but I’ve seen a couple of korean, japanese and taiwanese dramas.
guest
Now I have something to watch between the dramas on KBS World.

Yay!
I hope they expand into Japanese dramas though. Korean dramas can get a little crazy to say the least.

@Pickwick12@xanga - City Hunter was a lot of fun! I love Lee Minho!
Def worth watching! Especially if you like action and suspense.
guest
@eugenia@xanga - Sweet! Thanks, I’ll check it out
guest
My teenage daughter got me into watching these. We just finished a show called “The Playful Kiss”. It was adorable! And now we just started “Boys Over Flowers.” I have to admit, I’m hooked!
guest
OMG so excited! I recently became obsessed with Kdrama and I am so thrilled that others out there feel the same way.
Thanks for the information!!
guest
I am just finishing up Playful Kiss! The first Kdrama I ever saw was Coffee Prince. LOVED that. After that I went on to Personal Preference/Taste. LOVE Lee Min Ho. <3 So gorgeous. Once I finish Playful Kiss I fully plan on watching Boys Over Flowers. My mother thinks I am weird for getting addicted to these, but I am so happy to find out that others are hooked on these wonderful shows as well. This makes me watch to purchase Netflix so I don’t have to have all the commercials. Ah. This just made my day. Thanks!! I hope I am addicted to these for the rest of my life. They are wholesome and yet full of love and passion. XD Makes me so happy!

I just started watching Boys over Flowers last week on Hulu. I’ve gotten through maybe 4 episodes so far? It’s my first experience with any Asian media, but I really like it!
guest
YYYYYYYYYYYEESSSSSSSS!!!!!

I wish Netflix had this when I had suscribed! I used to love Korean dramas (BBF and Full House!) but I fell in love with Taiwanese dramas after watching Autumn’s Concerto
(Highly recommend it!)
