User Reviews for OnDemandKorea: Watch Korean TV

Great selection of shows but really annoying advertisements.

Update: The ad issue has been resolved. Thank you for listening to my concerns. Here’s your 5 stars!There are lots of shows for free which I like but the ads are so annoying. Especially the most recent “play game” ads. They’re 1 min long and you get 3 at a time with no skip function so you’re stuck with 3 minutes of boring ads. Please fix this and I’ll give you a 5 star rating. I shouldn’t be watching ads for longer than 1 and a half minutes.

Worst app ever. Really hard to use it

On demand korea forced you to download the app on smart tv without being ready to serve its customers. I’ve been a premium member for many years and this app has the worst UI with so many bugs. It crashes every half an hour and it’s so slow to load… also, it’s really hard to watch most recent episode as it’s really hard to find it. Plus, once you leave it on trying to rewind or rewatch the most recent episode, it automatically plays last year’s episode- meaning first episode from last year. Very very annoying and almost impossible to watch the recent episode for twice. You better find a replacement as app doesn’t serve it’s purpose. Not at all.

App Issues

Overall I enjoy using this app on my phone and AppleTV. BUT there are a some big problems in my opinion. First at times the subtitles completely disappear. This can be very frustrating. Even when the app is restarted the issue persists. Second if I have a paying subscription there should be no ads on the iPhone app. For those with paid membership let us be able to search media according to the level of the subscription. Another issue I’ve noticed more on my AppleTV is that the app does terrible with keeping track of what you’ve watched. This includes the episode you are currently on in a drama or if a particular episode or movie was partially watched.

Chrome cast downgrade

I’m not sure if ODK is just not making any improvements for Chrome cast users but the experience has been worsening for users. Many movies don’t play with Chrome cast, I can’t move between episodes from the cast menu (need to locate the show from the app and choose one to play instead of being able to play next episode, which used to be automatic previously), and the app crashes if I hit “Channels” after casting their first channel, news, which has been annoying if I had another show casting and just wanted to browse other channels. On top of not having enough new shows to watch, I’ve had my premium plan to use casting, and from the experience, I don’t see a reason to keep it once my annual subscription ends. I’ve given the benefit of doubt and kept up with the updates, but the interface has been just getting worse with the ads on top and menus sometimes not showing.

Terrible Apple TV UI With Update

The most recent update on Apple TVs has been a huge disappointment, notably click/toggle to rewind and fast forward. The app works fairly smoothly in iPhones, although the best interface for the Apple TV was for a good decade until the recent update sometime late 2022. The live TV option hardly works; the channels have froze multiple times or just blackout. The good movie options that were once updated every so often have all removed from the premium and went to Pay-Per-View. Many variety shows have been deleted or removed from the list such as Infinite Shows and many K-pop tv shows from M-Net are all removed. There are more Chinese and some Japanese TV/Movies added but many subscribers are paying to watch Korean shows. With Viki, Netflix taking up Korean streaming, ODK needs to to better - otherwise there is absolutely no incentive to stay subscribed.

Great but has glitches

My family and I love this app. My parents get their documentaries and news. I get the variety shows. They don't have all the shows and lately their newest drama selections have been lacking but the stuff they have are great quality. I recommend this for korean families who don't need subs. Only a some of their movies and dramas have subs so its not recommended for non-Koreans. I love that with the subscription there is no ads and I get to watch a lot of movies BUT there is a lot of glitches. It stops and start over sometimes. The search box won’t let me choose from my search results sometimes. And so on.

Update version 2.0.0 ruined the app

Prior to this update the app worked just fine. But after I updated the app to the newest version 3 days ago the app became extremely glitchy. I’m seeing from the other reviewers that I’m not alone and the app itself is a problem. I reached out to the customer service rep and initially they were suspecting that my device had an issue but it’s the app. I’m a premium member and now I can’t even login as it keeps on saying my login is invalid and I can’t seem to get a password reset email to successfully log in. They tell me that I don’t have an account with them yet I just received an email, to the email address I used to sign up for premium account that as usual they’ll have a scheduled monthly payment coming out of my credit card. It’s been 3 days since this mishap and I still can’t use the app. Do not release an untested update. What a complete mess.

I love it!

The shows are clear and good quality, and I had a question and emailed them about it and the response time was less than 20 minutes, they clearly answered my question and gave me further instructions on how to do what I was having trouble doing, and on top of that asked for my opinion. Clearly they care about the users’ concerns and try to fix any problems or concerns people have with the app the second they know about it. Not everything on there has English subtitles but a lot of it does and they are clear. There aren’t ads that interrupt the show. Very happy with them! ☺️

Recent update broke many things/update: much improved

Update:Apple TV app was updated today and it fixed 95% of the previous issues. Picture quality has been significantly improved. No more crashing or hanging issue. Play/pause button for Apple TV works 60% of the times. Scrubbing to fast forward or rewind fast still doesn’t work. But this update improved the app significantly. iPhone app almost has no issues but, this review is solely for Apple TV app. Recent update looks nice. But that’s about it. Most of the issues has to do with Apple TV app. Picture quality is somehow pretty terrible now. It’s so dark that I have to crank up brightness and contrast to the max on my tv. Then I go to a different streaming app and it way too bright. Picture seem blurry. Play/pause function on my Apple TV remote doesn’t work anymore. Keeps crashing or won’t load with constant server outage. Haven’t had buffering issue like some others experienced tho.

ODK plus user- no glitches no problems

I don’t usually write reviews but I wanted to write a review for this app since it’s one that my family would die without basically. Mom, dad, and I individually watch the shows that we want. We don’t need subtitles so I can imagine this wouldn’t be a great app if you need subtitles. I’ve never experienced any glitches. If there are glitches it’s very very rare and usually quickly solved. We just wait or turn the iPad on and off again. I love variety shows and my mom loves her mystery and documentary shows. If you enjoy watching dramas they don’t have a comprehensive library of dramas but I’m not a big drama watcher so ODK is perfect for my purposes.
