Nope. If I search on the website, it does not find it. However, if I use that link posted here, it says coming soon. But, if I use the phone app, it says not available in your region. I wrote to Viki asking which is it and the customer service guy who replied does not have a clue. This is crazy.

So, question for the Viki subscribers in the US. What are you seeing in Viki's website? Coming soon, not available in your region, or cannot even find it at all? Any changes from this past weekend? I wrote to Viki but the guy who replied does not seem to have a clue about its availability. This is insane. Never saw anything like this.

Did it "flop" because of how the audience received it or because of the crazy and weird way the distributors are launching it? It appears to be a complete mess based on what I'm reading here in the comments. Here in the US, Viki is advertising it in a very incompetent way and here in the US we are seeing different availabilities, none concrete.

The final two episodes went completely unhinged. It seems the screenwriter had a predetermined number of characters to kill, to reward, and some loose ends to fix. Good grief. The number of characters killing each other broke any record. The palace probably ended up empty after the bloodshed. And the two main leads...really...such grandstanding speech about law and justice, and just watched as two of the "bad guys" killed each other after the FL saved one of them just enough for him to kill the other. I was difficult to stop laughing at that script after that. That cost this series a whole point in my score. So, it's a good watch nonethless, but expect some absurds in the end.

Great series. The photography is spectacular. Most of the acting and overall production are also top notch. The soundtrack very pleasant. However... (I put the negative under the spoiler below)

Still no joy. As of this morning, the website still says "not found" when I search and the app says "not available in your region". I also tried the method of searching using the ML or FL names but Viki still does not show it. That made me starting to wonder what other content we may be missing with Viki's screwed-up content management. 🤨

What is shows is that Viki must replace its webmaster really quickly. The current one is the epitome of incompetence. We are paying for a service and that thing gives three different results? Where does Viki hire its people? Some kindergarten?

Are you all checking on the app or the website?
Viki's app says not available in my region. Viki's website simply show not found when I search for it.
So, definitely badly broken.

I also have the Plus Pass and just checked the app again. No joy. If tomorrow it continues like this, I'll check directly with Viki.

I'm in the northwest also (Seattle). Just checked in the Viki app and it still says that's not available in my region. Really crazy stuff.

I ended up dropping this trainwreck that was making my head hurt. It's impressive how South Kore could decline from excellent dramas such as Oh My Venus and Crash Landing on You to this disaster. My Country runs circles around this wreck. 5/10 is being very generous.

Brilliant drama. I gave it a 9/10, since it was very entertaining, combining a lighhearted story with some sad moments masterfully. A very easy bingewatch drama that I had decided to watch just to pass time but caught me from beginning to end. The production, direction, acting and soundtrack were just right. Only negative were too many flashbacks. Could have been a lot less. Maybe they added so much to get 16 episodes? Anyway, a great watch. South Korea really could do excellent dramas not long ago.

Weird, isn't it? My app still shows ""not available in your region"". If Viki US is showing different availabilities for different users in the same country, its system must be really screwed up.

Did it just pop-up there? I checked this morning and the website showed "not found" in the search and the app said "not available in your region". I'm in the US also.

Thanks! I'll keep an eye for it.

Where will this one stream?

Awesome! It's indeed better to let the audience judge and tell the producers what they want, instead of the government pushing bureaucratic regulations.

This drama is in a class of its own. Really good. The author wrote some great satire about the entertainment industry that became gems of humor. The FL's comment about "no lead actors ever dying when falling from cliffs" to the NPCs and the ML saying "they must be a big family, since there are so many everywhere" made me roll laughing. I just think the end could have been much better. It could have been humorous like the overall drama's spirit. The second ML's role could have been a bit lighter as well. His personality shift did not match the overall drama's theme. Neverthless, I highly recommend for a good laugh.

I checked both the app and the desktop browser. The browser only shows it if I go through the link. Search says "nothing found". The app's search finds it but says it's not available in my region. Anyway, I guess it will eventually show up since I'm in the US.

I only found using the link below. And even then, it's not letting me add to my list. Very weird.
