Terms of use

What Dramalyst is

Dramalyst is an independent guide to vertical short dramas — where to watch them, how many episodes are free, and, on some pages, the first free episodes playable in the platform's own embedded player. It is operated from Hong Kong. We are not affiliated with, endorsed by, or acting for any of the platforms we index, except where an affiliate relationship is disclosed.

Use of the site

You may browse, search and share links to our pages freely for personal, non-commercial use. You agree not to scrape the site at a rate that burdens it, to bypass security measures, or to use it for anything unlawful. The site is provided for information; it is not a place to buy, sell or stream content.

Content and intellectual property

Drama titles, cover art, synopses and the videos themselves belong to their respective platforms and rights holders. We show cover art by linking to the platform's own image servers and play video only through the platform's own official embedded player — we do not host, copy or re-stream any of it. Any platform synopsis shown is credited to that platform.

What is ours is the compilation: our selection, arrangement, comparisons and the words we write. Our own text and data compilation are offered under CC BY 4.0. See our copyright & DMCA notice for takedown requests.

Affiliate links

Some outbound links and embedded players are affiliate links: if you install an app or spend through them, we may earn a commission at no extra cost to you. This never changes what we report. See our affiliate disclosure.

No warranty — figures are our best effort

Episode counts, free-episode figures and cost estimates are compiled from public sources and platform data and can change or be wrong. Coin prices and “cost to finish” are estimates, not quoted prices. We provide the site “as is,” without warranties of accuracy, availability or fitness for a particular purpose. Always confirm on the official app before you rely on a figure or spend money.

Third-party services

Following a link or playing an embedded video takes you into a third party's service under their terms and privacy policy, not ours. We are not responsible for third-party content, availability, pricing or conduct.

Limitation of liability

To the fullest extent permitted by law, Dramalyst and its operator are not liable for any indirect or consequential loss arising from use of the site or reliance on its information. Nothing here excludes liability that cannot be excluded by law.

Changes and contact

We may update these terms; the date above shows when. Continued use after a change means you accept it. Questions: hello@dramalyst.com. These terms are governed by the laws of Hong Kong SAR.
