Netflix has chosen very bad strategy by delaying the release of new episodes of a really popular C-drama Hidden Love (consistently in top 5 trending). The 25 episodes show is already completed a few days ago but they released episode 11-16 just yesterday.

Cdrama and kdrama fans are dedicated ones, Netflix sure has huge content library but decisions like these push viewers towards alternatives, in this case all episodes are available with proper subtitles on dailymotion (youtube like free and not a piracy friendly site). Most people already watched it from there, I wonder if Netflix had any genuine reason for delaying the episodes.
