Yes, people do. In fact, surprising and record-breaking huge numbers of drama lovers or fans of specific actors/actresses do and will. It’s also a manifestation of their support for such dramas and/or their beloved actors/actresses.
These “reservations” are paid subscriptions to stream any specific drama as soon as it is released. There are also various categories of paid subscriptions, which include advance-viewing and viewing of an increased number of episodes (in comparison to “free” viewing), as well as “bonus” clips and/or events.

Viki created a channel three years ago [ I found my comment on MDL announcing the fact]. But it has been deleted.

A prince strays into the peach blossom village, a place that is said to contain the fountain of youth, and begins an angsty romance with its leader Liu Qingqing.
Among the clouds and mists in the mountains, there is a village full of peach blossoms that is isolated from everything. Zuo Jinglun (Wang Hongyi), the heir to the imperial dynasty, strays into this place while on his way to take office in the southwest. Here, he regains his inner peace and falls in love with Liu Qingqing (Huang Yi), a strong leader who dares to love and hate.
I wonder why… Let’s hope it’ll be delayed rather than never.
Don’t give up hope…
