Thank you, I will keep an eye on your blog.
I’m going to give it a try.
Do you or know someone else who knows why Japanese/Korean TV drama series isn’t shown more internationally.
I know that some channel(s) in California and Hawaii that air dramas.
What I’m wondering. Why doesn’t TV stations buy the rights to, let’s say air a show twice. Which are don’t constantly with American and UK TV shows.
Compare this with expensive DVD boxes with the drama series (all of them not having English subtitles, or poorly translated) you have to buy over the internet, add shipping costs.
I believe this is one of the reasons why fans of Asian dramas themselves make English subtitles and release.
Dear Keiko,
I appreciate that you are so brave and ask a question. At this moment I cannot give you a complete answer.
What I have noticed especially last year that Korean and some Japanese TV dramas have become rather popular on Asian TV stations. I can only assume that with time, you can find an expansion into US and Europe as well.
At the same time your raised concern of the appropriate translation will most likely continue. Although I admire proper translation from Japanese into English, because it is a true challenge, but many times when I experience the opposite, I am disappointed about the sloppy results. Don’t forget still many dictonaries commonly used in Japan contain a rather high degree of inaccurate translation, so it should not be surprising that translation can be a challenge.
Although I cannot give you an extensive enough answer, I promise you I will get back to you as soon as I have more findings. In case anyone there in the Internet universe has some comments or recommendation to this topic, feel free to voice your point.
Hope to get back to you soon with more,
Sibylle
Hello,
I was wondering if you accept guest post for your blog. If you do, I would like to submit a few. I’m a recent college graduate, with an English major, looking to build out my portfolio. I can write on a wide variety of topics and am sure you would be happy with the quality. Please email me back if you are interested. Thank you for your time.
