Thanks for the subs, momo-chan! I haven't gotten a chance to watch it with the drama because I'm still in the process of downloading it.

Have not checked out your subs since I already watched the first 2 episodes, but I wanted to wish you good luck with this project! It's great that someone will sub this for those that may want to check it out.

Does anyone no where I can download this, like DDLs. I know the torrents are available at d-addicts, but torrents are really too slow for me.

Sometimes that's the only choice... Unless someone posts it on Veoh or DailyMotion.

Unfortunately you're right, but the fastest a torrent goes for me is like 20-30 KB/s. That's why I don't download dramas from torrent cause the files are around 700 MB and it would take many hours.

Maybe, but instead of waiting all those hours, I would rather download something else. Like downloading a drama ep from megaupload takes me less than an hour. So instead of many hours for one ep on torrents, I could get a bunch of eps on DDLs.

Anyways since SCANDAL is now being subbed, I'm hoping someone will put up DDLs for it. If not then I'll just skip this and move on. Victory! Peace!

I just set up multiple downloads for torrents to run overnight and they're typically done by morning... Victory! Peace!

Get a free Live Journal account and join one of the JDrama groups. They typically have all the new season shows up at Megaupload or similar fairly quickly Smile

I have joined http://community.livejournal.com/jdramas/, but so far this show hasn't been uploaded even though the first subs are out. Like you said they up the shows rather quickly, so I was worried it wouldn't be uploaded. I'll just have to wait.

How much is your electric bill each month? My torrents are always slow, even when there are a much of seeders. I've followed online guides on how to set up BT programs and I still get slow downloads. I wonder if my ISP has something to do with it.

My electric bill is about $30-$35 month... My download PC doesn't draw much power: the monitor is a bigger power hog, I think... And it's turned off. Smile

I do the same thing BMW-sempai does, run torrents overnight, and my machine auto-shuts down after seeding. Also, I get the same max speed on torrents as I do on DDLs, so you may have an issue with your set-up or ISP.

Shocked Seriously? Man, the cheapest my electric bill has been is $80 and that's cheap for me cause it's typically around $100. If I left my pc running the whole night, the bill will be crazy. Crazy Where do you live? I'm seriously getting robbed by my electric company. Shake Head I definitely know I'm getting robbed by me gas company cause the only thing that's gas powered is my stove and I don't even cook.

What program do you usually use for torrents? My download speed is much faster even with wireless.

Believe me, I've tried a bunch. The last one I tried before giving up was called utorrent, I believe.

Sunny, dry, warm, fire and earthquake-ridden SoCal... Near the water. Smile

And my range and oven are electric. Mr Green

EDIT: BTW, my DSL provider is Verizon.

i haven't watched this yet but, looks like a Jp version of desperate housewives. is it?
im a sucker for shows about a bunch of women and feisty betrayals and all that women bonding thing so i've been meaning to watch this but I haven't seen any clips of it at all on streaming sites! i guess i'll wait till it's up for d/l on jdrama@lj or when someone uploads it on veoh or dailymotion or something.

anw, so who's watched it and what do you think of it?! i'm loving the effort they put to style the ladies. it all looks so classy. it definitely seem like the kind of show of women, for women.
