S1E1

Start watching The East Palace S1E1 wherever you stream it. The moment the episode starts, press Start below — then tap a word the instant you hear it. You won't see subtitle lines here — just the words. You're training your ear, not reading along.

You've got about six seconds either side, so aim rather than stab. The first word doesn't come up until around the 3-minute mark — quiet before that is the episode, not a bug.
