The Great Spooks, Detectives & Special Agents on DramaFever



With so much to watch and so many ways to watch your favorites shows it is not surprising that not all of the good series are on the television. The number of network streaming sites are rapidly growing ,and your choices of what to watch is steadily growing in numbers  with them.
Today's post highlights some of the series on DramaFever, which is one of my recent discoveries for watching live-action Asian drama.

The Series:

The Scholar Who Walks The Night  - The series is about a handsome vampire and scholar named Kim Sung Yeol (Lee Joon Ki), whose only reason for existing among the humans is to find the lost book of Crown Prince Junghyun (Lee Hyun-Woo) that contain the secret for destroy an evil that has haunted the royal palace for more than 200 years.

A hundred and twenty years later when Jo Yang Sun (Lee Yoo Bi) is driven out of her home after her father is framed for a crime, she is forced to crossdress in order to make ends meet as a bookseller. When she meets Kim Sung Yeol (Lee Joon Ki),  she fantasizes him to be the handsome and mysterious Forbidden Quest, a savior who seeks to stop the evil presence in the royal palace from destroying the Crown Prince and his rightful claim of the throne.

The K2 - this series is about Kim Je Ha (Ji Chang Wook), an elite soldier and former secret service agent seeking to avenge the death of his fiancée who was ordered to be killed by a corrupt politician. As he travels through Spain he meets a desperate runaway named Go An Na (Im Yoon Ah), who turns out to be the hidden daughter of the presidential hopeful who, only wants to be with her father.

Together the two set out to avenge themselves on the corrupt business and government officials who destroyed  their lives and also wants them dead.

 

Let's Fight Ghost - in this dark-comedic supernatural drama Bong Pal (Ok Taec Yeon), a high school student and an exorcist meets ghost Hyun Ji (Kim So Hyun). Against his better judgment Bong Pal lets her live with him so that she can fulfill her final desire which is to pass her college entrance exams.  In return Hyun Ji’ joins him in helping ghosts to move on to the afterlife.

However, things go awry when a string of murders starts to point toward someone in their circle. As the bodies and ghosts pile up, it is up the Bong Pal, Hyun Ji, and the motley team of ghost busters of the Blood Sausage Soup club (Kang Ki-Young as Choi Chun-Sang and David Lee as Kim In-Rang) to solve the murders and send the ghosts on their way.

Scarlet Heart: Ryeo - In this star crossed lovers epic Hae-Soo (Lee Ji Eun (IU)) is a 21st century woman who is transported during an eclipse of the sun to the Goryeo Dynasty of the 10th century where she witnesses the lives and turmoils of King Wanggun (Jo Min-Gi) and his princes.  While living there, Hae-Soo reluctantly loses her heart to 4th Prince Wang So (Lee Joon-Gi), a.k.a the Wolf Dog, who Hae-Soo knows from her study of history led a terrifying and bloody reign as king.

 

 

Vampire Detective - During a routine investigation rookie cop Yoon San (Lee Joon) is shot by his fiancée, Yo-Na (Lee Chung-Ah). A year later while tracking down the brother of his secretary, Han Gyeo-Wool (Lee Se-Young), Yoon San is turned into a day walking vampire by a mysterious doctor.

It is then that Yoon San uses his vampiric powers to help his partner Yong Goo-Hyung (Oh Jung-Se) to solve cases and to discover the mysteries of his own case and that of his missing fiancée.

These series are just a few of the great shows you can stream on Drama Fever. You can watch them by either going directly to DramaFever.com or from your Roku TV with the Drama Fever app.

Although many of the series and live-action films are free to watch, there is a small $4.99 fee to watch them commercial free with a premium plan. All the series and live-action films are English subbed.

I suggest going with the premium plan.

As I stated above streaming networks are growing and series like these are artfully done and with actors and actresses making them worth the watch. 

P.S.:  Speaking of Roku TV, if you are a fan of anime series, you can now stream them on Roku with the Funimation, Crunchyroll and Anime Network apps.
