The extension will list every resolution tier KakaoTV serves for the video, typically ranging from 360p to 1080p depending on the original upload.

Saves KakaoTV dramas before they vanish

I watch a lot of web dramas on KakaoTV and episodes get removed without notice. Now I save the ones I like right away. Hangul filenames work cleanly and finding old episodes on my drive is simple.

Good for commute watching

Downloading variety show clips for offline viewing on the subway has been a big help. The extension picks up the resolution options quickly and downloads finish in under a minute for short clips.

Reliable and handles Korean text well

Clean interface, fast downloads, and it handles Korean filenames without extra fuss. I use it to keep backups of cooking channel videos I follow on KakaoTV.
