The Top Sites for Watching Asian Dramas Free

For those of us who do not have access to Asian television, we can only watch Asian dramas online. Or maybe are a person with access to Asian dramas on the TV, but either wish to re-watch your favorite ones or find an episode you missed.

Regardless of your reasons for wanting to watch Asian dramas online free and easily, there are many sites to look at that have English subtitles provided.

Aznv TV

Aznv TV is actually one of my favorite sources from Asian dramas, because episodes come in ONE part and only take 3 seconds to download and be ready to watch. However, you must create an account with them (free) and download Winamp (also free and easy). I love Winamp and believe it's way better than Windows Live Media Player.

Viki

Viki is my second favorite source for watching Asian dramas. They tend to be the most up to date with new episodes of the newest dramas (such as Drunken to Love You and City Hunter) and have a variety to choose from. This site is also easy to navigate, free, and does not require you to sign up. For those who may be looking for subtitles that are in a language besides English, this is also a great site for you. Not every drama has additional subtitles, but many do.

MySoju

MySoju is another easy to use website that provides hundreds of dramas with English subtitles. They are consistently adding new dramas and new episodes. However, it is important to note that MySoju only uses links from other sites that have uploaded the episodes. MySoju does not host the videos.

DramaCrazy

DramaCrazy is another good website for watching Asian dramas with English subtitles. If you cannot find a drama you are looking for on Aznv TV, Viki, or MySoju, DramaCrazy may have it.

In my experience I have been able to find just about any drama on these four sources. If Viki did not have it, Aznv TV has it, and vice versa. I hope these four great reliable sources will also satisfy you and provide you with what you may be looking for. Even if you cannot find something you want to watch with subs, you can put in a request on these sites.

Introduction to Asian Dramas

Almost everyone knows what anime is by now. However, Asian dramas still remain a thing that typically only people addicted to them know about, aside from those who live in Asia. Even for those of us familiar with the world of Asian dramas, we can have difficulty defining this unique genre. It's one of those things that you have to experience to truly understand.

I discovered the world of Asian dramas when I was 15 and browsing on YouTube. I honestly cannot remember how on earth I stumbled upon my very first drama, Devil Beside You, but I did. Intrigued by something I had never seen before, I started with episode one with English subtitles of course.

As I watched Devil Beside You, I had to pause a few times to keep track of the subtitles. However, after watching about 5 dramas, I no longer had to pause and could keep up with everything.

To this day, Devil Beside You remains as one of my favorite dramas. If you have not watched it yet, you should.

The dramas I tend to watch the most are Korean and Taiwanese. I have watched some Japanese ones, though. Additional types of Asian dramas that are not as popular as Korean, Taiwanese, and Japanese are Indian, Hong Kong, Vietnamese, Thai, and Filipino.

Even within the genre of Asian dramas, there are numerous genres, such as comedy, romance, action, historical, fantasy, horror, sports, mystery, medical, etc. There is something for everyone!

If you want to try watching an Asian drama, I would recommend watching Devil Beside You, You're Beautiful, Mary Stayed Out All Night, It Started With a Kiss, and My Princess. I will also cover many dramas on this blog along with feedback on each episode.
