Rakuten Viki Takes the Crown
It’s a Friday evening. You have shut down the work computer for the weekend, taken that much needed walk with the dog outside, planned your house cleaning and stocking schedule for the weekend and even managed to fit in 15 extra minutes of mindfulness with some meditation. Champ! With the load of the week behind you and tomorrow’s troubles to be taken care of tomorrow only, it’s right about time to unwind with some drama, specifically a K-Drama or C-Drama. Of course, there are tons of sites to watch your preferred drama from, paid and unpaid, which can also be a headache if you are uncertain what to do when spoilt for choice. Depending on how important picture quality, sound, subtitle and translation quality and the possibility of picking up a bug are to you, you can find a site to quench the thirst for a thrilling or ‘normal’ feelgood C-Drama or K-Drama. Of these sites, I have found Netflix, which was my first and original source of K-Drama, and Rakuten Viki to be the least problematic and most helpful. Bothe have strengths and weaknesses that set them apart and at the end of the day, with all these considered, here are reasons why I pick Rakuten Viki over Netflix many times over for an enjoyable Asian drama viewing experience. The third reasons tops them all.
