“Many users talk about it online, comparing it with platforms like Netflix and iQIYI, particularly for its fast subtitle updates and free viewing option. It often comes up in tech blogs, app reviews, and forums where people recommend places to watch Korean or Japanese dramas legally.

I’ve been using Viu since 2021, and it’s been my go-to app for Korean dramas and Asian variety shows. Over the years, I’ve really appreciated how fast they upload new episodes with subtitles. It’s especially convenient during peak drama seasons, when I want to stay updated without spoilers.

I use Viu almost every day, especially in the evenings. It’s part of my daily routine to catch up on ongoing K-dramas or rewatch old favorites.

✅ Fast episode uploads – Great for keeping up with ongoing K-dramas.
✅ Subtitles available in multiple languages – including English, Malay, and Filipino.
✅ Offline viewing – You can download shows to watch later without using data.
✅ Free and Premium options – Free version is decent, though it has ads.

But Not All Shows Are Fully Available:
Some shows are missing episodes or are unavailable in certain regions. It can be frustrating if you start a series and suddenly it’s not accessible.

Viu is an excellent streaming app if you love Korean dramas, Asian series, and variety shows. One of its biggest strengths is how quickly new episodes are uploaded — often just hours after the original broadcast, with subtitles included. The app has a wide collection of K-dramas, Japanese shows, Chinese dramas, and even some Filipino content. so i totally recommend this app☺️☺️

“I got to know about Viu through recommendations from friends who love watching K-dramas and Asian series. They mentioned that Viu offers a wide selection of Korean, Japanese, and Thai shows with subtitles, so I decided to try it out myself. I also came across Viu while browsing the Play Store for apps that stream Asian dramas.

I started using Viu around January 2021, and I've been using it for about 4 years now. Since then, it has become one of my go-to apps for watching Asian dramas and variety shows. I use Viu almost every day, especially in the evenings to relax and catch up on the latest episodes of my favorite dramas.

The most useful thing about Viu for me is the wide variety of Asian dramas and shows it offers, especially with subtitles in my preferred language. I also love how quickly new episodes are uploaded after airing, so I never fall behind on the latest K-dramas. The offline download feature is also a big plus—it lets me watch anywhere, even without internet.

If you’re a premium user:
-As a premium user, I wish there were more exclusive titles or early releases to make the subscription even more worth it.
If you’re on free version only:
-The ads are understandable, but sometimes they feel too frequent or repetitive.

I would recommend Viu to anyone who loves Asian dramas, variety shows, or anime. It's a great platform for K-drama fans, with timely episode releases and good subtitle options. Whether you're into romance, action, or comedy, there’s always something to enjoy. I often tell my friends it’s one of the easiest and most convenient apps to binge-watch their favorite shows.

“I just saw this app on my friend's phone, and I immediately fell in love with how good this app for streaming K-Dramas!

I started using the VIU app last 2018, and until now I'm still using it to watch my favorite K-Dramas. I'm using it three times a week, because I do have some commitments to go into that's why I just used it frequently.

It is the streaming capabilities of the app, and how good is the quality of the application. But there are some ads to begin with, but it is still worth the subscription to the premium kind of the app.

If you love K-dramas, Asian series, or want subtitles in your local language, I highly recommend Viu! It’s affordable, user-friendly, and has a wide range of updated content.

“I got to know Viu from online platforms, like Facebook, Instagram, etc.

For those who loves to watch dramas, especially korean or chinese dramas, this app is really one of the best app to use. The only downside is you need to pay for the subscriptions to watch the full episodes, without any limitation.

Just used it recently, as I wanted to watched certain dramas and it's only available on Viu. Previously I was only told of it from my friends, then after downloading the app, it really got me hooked up on this app too. I use it very frequently, as I love watching dramas. Maybe in a day, I can watch it for 8 hours non-stop.

Most useful about Viu is that the amount of dramas available on this app, is alot. But You need to pay for the subscription. It's not free.

If they love to watch dramas, they are really encouraged to download this app.

“I first heard about Viu from my friends who love watching Korean dramas. They recommended it as one of the best apps for fast and easy access to the latest episodes with subtitles.

I started using Viu in early 2023 and have been using it regularly for more than a year now. I use Viu almost every day, especially in the evenings after classes or during weekends to catch up on my favorite shows.

The fast release of new episodes with subtitles is the best feature for me. I also love that I can download shows for offline viewing when I’m travelling or have no internet.

But some shows are not available in my region, and the ads on the free version can be a bit too frequent. It sometimes interrupts the watching experience.

If you love Asian dramas or variety shows, Viu is totally worth trying. The Premium plan is great for ad-free viewing, but even the free version gives access to tons of shows.

“I encountered Viu during the pandemic, when I was addicted to Korean dramas.

Since then, Viu became one of my go-to apps whenever I am looking for something to watch. When classes are ongoing, I rarely visit the app to focus. But without classes, I frequently use the app, 5 times a week, to binge watch my favorite Korean dramas.

Viu is a free app to stream your favorite dramas and movies anywhere you want. It also offers dramas dubbed in a specific language, with subtitles available in different languages.

If I were to state what I dislike about Viu, it would be the number of ads within one episode. With the emergence of different free apps to watch wide range of movie genre, some websites or apps have less advertisements in a single episode that makes streaming more enjoyable.

If you are looking for an accessible app to binge-watch your favorite drama, Viu is the perfect app for you. It allows streaming with subtitles available in various languages.

“I heard about Viu from friends who are fans of Korean dramas. They highly recommended it because of the vast selection of Asian shows and the availability of English subtitles.

I started using Viu around March 2023 and have been using it regularly for over a year now. It’s become my go-to app for binge-watching.

I use Viu almost every day—mostly in the evenings and weekends to catch up on new episodes and discover new series.

The variety of Korean, Japanese, Chinese, and Filipino content is impressive. I love how episodes are updated quickly and that I can download them for offline viewing. The app layout is also clean and easy to navigate.

Occasionally, the ads can be repetitive if you're using the free version. Also, some older series take time to load subtitles.

If you're into K-Dramas, Asian thrillers, or variety shows, Viu is a must-have! It’s affordable, user-friendly, and constantly updated with fresh content.

“I first heard about Viu during the pandemic while I was looking for apps/websites to watch K-dramas and C-dramas

I started using Viu in 2020 and I've been using it for around 5 years. Due to school works I lessen the time I spent on watching but now that its my summer break I open the app at least thrice a week.

It allows me to access diverse dramas and movies without having to do complicated steps. The subtitles are also one of the most accurate translation I've heard/seen.

But in my region, the internet connection is not the best, hence it can get really hard to watch/download episodes, some ads are also long and has no skip button.

Viu is a great app for streaming dramas and movies, although it may take time to update new episodes, its worth it because they always deliver quality content.

“Karena suka nonton, dan banyak iklan bermunculan kalau nonton bisa pakai Viu.

Saya mulai menggunakan Viu 1 tahun lalu, waktu itu saat tidak sengaja sedang menscroll media sosail. Disaat ada waktu senggang, biar bisa metime setelah mengurus anak dan rumah tangga.

Gampang buat daftarnya, bisa nonton kapan saja dan dimana saja. Tidak ada sama sekali yang saya tidak sukai dari Viu.

Saya akan merekomendasikannya saat berkumpul dengan teman sesama penggemar menonton.
