posticon Call KBS-LA (KTE) and demand subtitles for AOW


Call KBS-LA tonight if they still don't show subtitles for AOW. I called last night and there is a hope. Read this message I posted in a Yahoo message board.

And I third the motion.

Yes, everyone please do call! You may not be watching Age of Warriors but your favorite subtitled drama could very well be next.

I do watch AOW and am really p----d that they’ve dropped the English subs. After all, those of us who watch have done so for many months and now that we’re three-quarters down the back stretch, they pull the subtitles.

I was really irked that in the crawl announcing the end of subtitling that they hope we’ll continue to support their programming. Well, yeah, I guess so--if I could understand it. emoticon (I’ll bet they’re really hearing about it in Chicago, where AOW has a huge and very active English-speaking audience.)

I tried calling KBS LA today (213-382-6700). Before you waste your money, please note their switchboard is open Monday-Friday, from 9a to 6:30p only. Nobody there nights or weekends.

[Their recorded message does take you to a directory but it is only in Korean. If you understand Korean, you might be able to leave a voice mail for the program director, or some other person in charge.]

AOW was subtitled last night. Someone at KBS-LA still needs to tell us definitely that AOW will be subtitled for all remaining episodes. They also need to explain what happened on Saturday.

Re: Call KBS-LA (KTE) and demand subtitles for AOW


I have a GREAT IDEA to encourage KBS-LA to subtitle more of the dramas. It may sound strange at first, but I think it could work. We all know that it is very expensive for them to subtitle programs, right? Well, here's the answer!

We should all suggest that they have their sponsors subtitle the COMMERCIALS, because if more people can understand the commercials, more people will buy the sponsor's products. This will bring MORE MONEY into the station and hopefully, they will be willing to SPEND SOME OF THEIR NEW FOUND MONEY ON SUBTITLES for our DRAMAS!!!

You can e-mail KBS-LA at [email protected] and call them at 213-382-6700 Monday through Friday 9AM to 6:30PM.

The more people who contact the station to ask for subtitles, the more they’ll realize they have a huge English speaking audience who wants to be able to watch more subtitled dramas!
