Trailer

I won't put more trailers because other trailers contain a LOT spoilers... no good for people who like this serie

WARNING: CURRENTLY AIRING ONLY 16 EPISODES OUT
HD quality so each file are big.

HOW TO PLAY THE FILE WITH SRT CLICK HERE
What are softsubs?

Soft subs are subtitles that are distributed SEPARATE from the video file. They come as a text file, using extensions like .SUB, .SRT, etc. The reason for the different extensions is that there are different formats used for soft subs.

The purpose of soft subs is so that a single video file (referred to as the RAW file) can be distributed all over the world. Then the viewer can pick & choose which language he would like to view the subtitles in.

They're called soft subs because the other type are hard subs. Hard subs are subtitles that are rendered into the video itself. Some examples of files with hardsubs are encodes by Jem. Most fansubbing groups also choose to hardsub their works as well.

I have a subtitle file (softsub), how do I play it with my video?

1. Download and install VobSub. (Note: It is not necessary to do anything other than double-click the .exe file and to let it install. You don't need to manually load vobsub each time you want to view soft subs.)

2. Place sub file in the same directory as the video file. Make sure that they have the same filename.
e.g
WRONG
Koukou_Kyoushi_ep02.avi
Koukou Kyoushi ep02.smi
-----Your player cannot find Eng sub because of the file name.

CORRECT
Koukou_Kyoushi_ep02.avi
Koukou_Kyoushi_ep02.smi
-----Your player can find Eng sub automatically.

3. Play video and subs should be overlayed automatically.

Alternatively, you could try BSplayer, Media Player Classic, Videolan or RadLight which has functionality for loading subtitle files without having to installing vobsub.

I woke up late this morning, but was able to watch most of episode 1. So far, it's pretty interesting. Awesome quality -- even my Amazon Prime and Netflix movies don't feel all that HD in comparison.

I just finished episode 2 and glad I I had it downloaded instead of streaming. I skipped the synopsis so I ended up thinking the parents were the leading characters lol. If the remaining episodes were anywhere as good as the first two episodes, then, I'm sold! I'm not a sucker for romantic series but there are definitely a lot of catchy things(the scenery, fantasy, nice music, etc.) going on the first two hours that got me hooked. So far, it's quite emotionally powerful.

Damn, she betrayed him! I can feel his pain...:mad:

Well said Rei! I agree there are many things catchy to this series. I for one, am a sucker for series with martial arts action, fantasy (magic, demons etc.) and most of all, an interesting story driven plot. All I have to say is this series has definitely caught my attention after watching just the first episode! Now I am on episode 8 and anxious to finish the series, I can't wait!!

Ah, I'm so behind in the episodes -- I'm on episode 3. The main female lead (unless I'm wrong) seems very cute. The weekend is near, I'll be able to catch up and maybe watch the rest of Swordsman if it gets released this Saturday.

Exemple: Episode 01
How do you think about Wol Wol Ryung and Yoon Seo Hwa? Did you also think they are the lead? Well both of them are a lead actors in other series ^^

Since I just finished episode 5,

I wonder what is Dam Yeo Wool's perspective after seeing Choi Kang's beast transformation. And will he be able to save Chung Jo on time from becoming a courtesan?
