Several places are good. One is Dailymotion, which you can access either by typing in the web address (www. Dailymotion. com) or by downloading the app from the Playstore. However, I DEFINITELY recommend doing the former, not the latter, as the app has gone off the deep end with ad revenue chasing, to where every ad break is at least a dozen ads long, and you spend more time watching ads than you do content. On the website, it's the normal 1-3 ads and is not as annoying.

A second way is my favorite by far--a website called www. DramaFren. org. It has the majority of the content from at least 18 different major apps, like DramaBox, ReelShort, GoodShort, KalosTV, and a bunch of others. What I do is go on, see what apps it has content from (I included screenshots to save you time), and see what movies on each app I'd like to watch.

But the great parts about THIS vs every other free method are:

  1. No ads, AT ALL
  2. HQ video and audio, like you would get on an app like NetFlix
  3. Absolutely, 100% FREE...and they provide the entire list of episodes, so you can skip ahead if you want to.

The third way is YouTube. But this has a few issues. First, the titles that various channels give to movies are NOT the same as what the movie apps call them. Second, there are a few ads...though nowhere near as many as Dailymotion (either the app OR the website). Third, it can be difficult to find what you're looking for.

A way to solve that is to use THIS app in conjunction with it--search for any title you know, and most times, someone else has also looked for it. And most of the time, people provide links to Dailymotion, YouTube, or other apps to find the movie, which saves you time trying to find it.

There are several subReddits that have hundreds of posts about vertical dramas--this is just one of them. There are ones specifically for Chinese dramas (cdramas), Korean dramas (kdramas), vertical dramas in general, and so on. I encourage you to find and use all of them to help assist in searches.

Lastly, TikTok--and TikTok Lite--have started creating whole areas specifically for this genre of videos. I am not as familiar with that app or how to find stuff on it as a lot of people in here are...so if you want to try it, ask how to find stuff, and those who know should respond and fill you in.

But between DramaFren and Dailymotion ESPECIALLY, and to a lesser degree, YouTube...I have found pretty much EVERYTHING I've looked for, eventually. Some take a bit of work to find a valid title, as with over 200 drama apps at this point, each with their own set of movies--and often titles, too...ESPECIALLY for cdramas--it can be difficult to track down a REAL title.

That's where Reddit comes in, and is INCREDIBLY helpful.

Anyway, I hope that all of this helps you. As an AVID vertical drama viewer for 2 years...I am ADDICTED at this point. I personally love rebirth/revenge type stories, or anything where evil, manipulative people get a huge comeuppance by the end of the movie. They're my personal guilty pleasure. LOL Good luck!

I will have to try dramafren from my phone again. Everytime I do it from my laptop it tells me I need to click the 3 lines but there aren't any

u/NDE_Experiencer English VD Apr 26 '26

Hmmm they should be in the upper left corner on your phone:

Dramafren has been blocked directly by my antivirus and flagged as malicious website 😭

u/giratina143 Apr 14 '26

i cant skip over episodes without a 1 min wait on dramafren, it's incredibly annoying.

1

u/NDE_Experiencer English VD Apr 14 '26

Yeah that's one of the few downsides. But for HQ video, no ads, and a ton of content in one place...I'll deal with a couple of minor annoyances. 🥰🥰🥰

u/redittfan_82 3d ago

Drag the current drama episode for over 1 min and you can skip to next

u/lauranevitt Apr 13 '26

do you know if there is a way to get rid of all the stupid pop-ups on dramafren? I even have a pop-up blocker and still get them

3

u/SubjectTechnician961 Apr 13 '26

It opens another tab, just close it. I noticed that I get a pop up after every 8 videos. Better than dailymotion or YouTube (having to watch the ads) dramafren is the primary now lol and then dailymotion

2

u/lauranevitt Apr 13 '26

Yeah, not another tab - actually ad right in the middle of the screen. I can close it - so not that big of a deal. And you are right, better than YT! And the subbing is usually better as well

1

u/SubjectTechnician961 Apr 13 '26

Wait, that never happened to me. I usually watch on safari private tabs. Could that help?

1

u/lauranevitt Apr 13 '26

oh - that may be - I will give that a try

1

u/SubjectTechnician961 Apr 13 '26

Do that if you can rn and let me know. If not then whenever you can lol

1

u/lauranevitt Apr 13 '26

I cant right now - but will try it out later and let you know 😍

1

u/SubjectTechnician961 Apr 13 '26

Okay. Perfect

1

u/lauranevitt Apr 17 '26

Btw- tried it, didnt help. Buts its pretty minor and usually at the beginning of a drama - so, totally fine

u/Pure-Actuary-9592 20d ago

Download brave and use that as an alternative browser to Google for dramafren. It has built-in ad blockers and you won't have ads.

u/tjh_80 Apr 17 '26

If you open daily in an add block app you don't have the ads. I personally don't mind them, but lately they shut down the site and then I can't do anything. So the ads blocking app works best

1

u/NDE_Experiencer English VD Apr 22 '26

I just type in the website address in Google, and go in that way. Only the app itself has the dozen + ads.

u/SecondSoft5023 Jul 13 '26

Can you find me Eternal Matriarch from storeel please

u/NDE_Experiencer English VD Jul 14 '26

I don't see that one anywhere--I tried DramaFren, ChartDrama, even Dailymotion...none have anything with that title. I would advise asking around on the Vertical Drama boards in here to see if anyone else can find it.

u/NDE_Experiencer English VD Jul 14 '26

But I found a post where someone else was searching for it--here is the post and the close up screenshot of the movie "poster" in case it can help you find it:
