After years of waiting, fans can finally watch "So I Married An Anti-Fan" on Rakuten Viki.

So I Married An Anti-Fan is adapted from a South Korean novel of the same name by Kim Eun Jung. The novel was later made into a webtoon. The plot revolves around the two lead characters. The male lead is a K-Pop idol, and the female is a reporter who hates him. However, they team up to project a fake marriage to enter a reality show.
