Hello! So I've been digging through posts about Afreeca from 2006 and on, and the general consensus seems to be that foreigners now have to pay for the service, and proxies don't work with a korean social. I have friends in Korea so I should be able to get SSN, but has anybody found a way to make it work or simply pay for it? I wouldn't be opposed to a small fee to watch high level BW, I'd really appreciate any insight into how I can make this work. Thankyou!

The couple of guys that stream(bgvrt, kjwcj) run on korean VPN setups, which dont require any formalities i think? as in you can just turn on the network and the silverlight should work right

There is an app on the android store that lets you watch Afreeca streams for free, and very easily. Use it all the time

Yeah I've got the same app for my ipod touch, works fine. If you want to stream yourself then you'll need a VPN but otherwise I was under the impression you can watch just fine...then againI've never tried on a PC.

Actually you don't need Korean ssn to make an afreeca account.

Yea bluestacks keeps crashing on me after i switched it to large phone size. Makes me sad. (I have win7 x64)
it magically fixed itself, but I would like to find out how to make tablet size work.
