[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I love they way they include the reference to eating Ramen together. “There are social implications” (Netflix and Chill) and she just looks at him blankly.[/quote]

Ha, I love that too. One thing I've noticed with Netflix translations is sadly they write over a lot of Korean language nuance that is really endearing. On Viki, the subtitles are better about capturing and explaining jokes, and using actual Korean words that are really easy to pick up on after you see them explained once (ie: "oppa", "noona", "ahjumma"). Viki subtitles will note if someone drops formality in their language, for instance, and unless the characters explicitly talk about it, Netflix rarely notes those details. I noticed in a recent show I watched that a charater referred to an older woman as "grandmother" for the entire show, and the subtitles referred to her as "Mrs. _____" the whole time. [/quote]

I've noticed that Netflix does that too (with the honorifics), I wish they were more clear! Its a big deal! Wish I had Viki.[/quote]
