How To Watch Korean Dramas Online With Chinese Subtitles?

What are good online resources to watch Japanese dramas with Japanese subtitles?

• Seems like every time I find a drama the subtitles are in English. Anyone have any solid resources for dramas with 日本語の字幕？

• Answer:

  You can get Japanese subtitle files from http://d-addicts.com. Simply search for your required drama with "japanese sub" appended to the end of the search query. You should be able to locate and download an .srt file for each episode, if your drama is relatively popular. You can open a subtitle file paired with the relevant video file using a video player such as VLC. As you will have realized, this takes a little more effort than the usual idiot-proof clicking on video streaming sites such as mysoju. Most drama-loving Japanese language enthusiasts don't quite get to the point of wanting to read Japanese subtitles, so the demand for Japanese-subbed dramas on streaming sites is relatively low. (Ironically, Japanese subtitles are much easier to come by than the English, because the former are ripped directly from the digital TV data, while the latter are painstakingly translated by otakus.) Also, please take a moment to give thanks (silently or otherwise) to the unsung heroes who spend countless unappreciated hours extracting Japanese subtitles and then translating these to the English, so that we may all enjoy them.
