Bandwidth probably costs a lot more than just mailing you a hard copy.

Since alot of Korean dramas can go anywhere from 20-30 episodes, I'm wondering if they are just giving say episode 1 or Disc 1 as a preview? But, thanks for the link....I'll wait to see what arrives in the mail.

Yes. Except they tend to wrap up the story in one season instead of running perpetually like American soap operas. I guess they are more like American "primetime soaps" than the ones that run during the day.

They will send you a dvd from a drama that has 3 episodes on it. Or one that has 1-3 episodes from different dramas.
Korean dramas can ranger from 16-24 episodes for the miniseries. To 50-80 episodes for weekend dramas. To daily 25-35 minute episodes that can be 150-175 episodes in length. If it's a longer drama like 80 something episodes like Jumong YA Ent. will sell it in 4 volumes to get as much profit out of it they can.
I'm lucky I live in a area where we have 3-4 channels showing Korean dramas with subtitles. Nice to be able to record these episodes to dvd-r with my Panny dvd recorder. YA Ent. prices are not bad but they are going up. Still better than buying the region 3 Korean drama box sets that can cost over $100 at times. Some of our local stores sell YA Ent. drama box sets for $49 when they go on sale as well as Costco sometimes.

I received my disc today - the first three episodes of Goodbye My Love - along with a $5 YesAsia coupon, so I'd assume everyone should be getting theirs shortly (if you haven't already). Looking forward to watching it!
