Viu Korean & Asian content

Viu features

Fast access with subtitles

Viu brings the latest episodes from across Asia, as fast as four hours after broadcast in supported regions. Subtitles are available for many titles, so you can follow the story without waiting days for translations. This speed helps fans of K-dramas, J-series, and other Asian shows keep up with new releases while they are trending.

Free and Premium viewing

Viu Free lets you watch with ads and standard access to the catalog. Viu Premium is a paid tier that reduces interruptions and offers enhanced features, which may include earlier access to new episodes in certain regions. Availability and benefits can differ by country, so check what the Premium tier provides where you live before upgrading.

Unlimited streaming wherever available

Viu supports unlimited streaming while you are connected, so you can watch as much as you like when the service operates in your area. Playback depends on regional availability and licensing, and the catalog can change over time. If the service is not active in your location, the app will indicate limited or no access.

Bookmarks and sync across devices

You can register for a free account to bookmark favorite shows and continue watching on another device. Viu keeps your progress, so episodes resume from where you stopped. This helps you switch between phone and tablet without losing your place or your watch list.

Localized interface and Viu Originals

Viu offers a local language interface and subtitles tailored to regional audiences, making browsing and watching more comfortable. The library includes Asian programs and Viu Originals, which are original productions created for the platform. A dedicated Originals section helps you find series and films designed specifically for Viu. Title availability varies by region due to licensing agreements.

Viu geo availability notice

Service and content availability differ by country. Viu ceased service in India, so users there will not be able to access streaming through the app. In other regions, the catalog and features can vary, and some titles may be restricted or appear later than in neighboring countries. If you travel, your accessible catalog may update to match the local licensing rules.

Understanding Viu Free and Viu Premium

Viu Free includes ads and provides standard access to shows and movies. Viu Premium is a subscription tier designed to reduce ads and expand features, which can include faster access to new episodes in some locations. Pricing, features, and offer details are set per region, so review the options available in your country before choosing a plan.

Account benefits on Viu

Signing up is free and enables bookmarking and multi-device sync. Your watch history and favorites carry across devices when you sign in, which helps you pick up right where you left off. If you install the Viu APK, service access and catalog still depend on your current region and its licensing policies.
