dunno but i saw this on the wiki entry

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Simpsons_movie


The film was animated at four different studios around the world: Film Roman in Burbank, CA; Rough Draft Studios in Glendale, CA; AKOM and Rough Draft Korea in Seoul, South Korea.

so probably a good chance

It's in Suwon on the 23rd of August at our local Megabox.
Mr Bean on the 15th too, and my birthday.

Always comes in threes!

yes, it will most likely be shown here in Korea. Matt Groening, the creator of the Simpsons, has close ties with Rough Draft Korea, the animation production studio that also works on his second popular series Futurama.

yYes it is scheduled for a mass release. It will be on in most cinemas...

however don't expect a long run, 2 weeks max as Koreans see it as children's animation humour.....

It is scheduled for release on August 23rd

Watching the simpsons these days is like watching an old friend who's picked up a cronic crack habit .... bad for the soul .

Personally I have little doubt the Simpsons movie with be a string of tired b side gags ....only longer .

Whatever happened to futurama ? That was a funny show .Bender , second only to Eric Cartman in the greatest character ever stakes .

According to this page on daum.net
http://movie.daum.net/showinfo/?nil_profile=movieTop&nil_menu=bar_showinfo
the release date is August 23rd....

It not only shows Simpsons but every movie that has a planned release up until december.....it is 100% accurate.
