All of these movies come with English subtitles?


Most if not all new Korean films come with English subtitles these days.

The torrent didn't download with a text file? Sometimes the text are kept separate so the text isn't burned into the movie image. If there is a subtitle text file then the player's not picking it up. Could be a setting or you may need another player.


Look up "VLC Player"

I might as well add a few suggestions:

The Restless (중천)
My Little Bride (어린 신부)
Jenny and Juno (제니, 주노)
Who Are You? (후 아 유)
My Tutor Friend 1, 2 (동갑내기 과외하기 , 동갑내기 과외하기 레슨 2)
Love So Divine (신부 수업)
100 Days with Mr. Arrogant (내 사랑 싸가지)
The Duelist (형사)
...Ing (아이엔지)


Was the Duelist any good? I thought it might be worth a watch but never got around to it.

Shiri - the movie that brought about the beginning of the Korean wave. Love it.

To find out showtimes and locations of movies currently being played in Korea, as well as instructions on how to get there, just call up the Korea Tourism Organization (KTO) hotline at 1330.

1330 provides information in English about living, visiting and traveling in Korea.

They are operated 24 hours a day.

If your calling from a cellphone you just add the area code before 1330.

If you don't know your area code go to this site to find it out:
http://www.visitkorea.or.kr/enu/GK/GK_EN_2_7_1.jsp

You can call them up and ask them what are the show times and showing locations of a movie your interested in. They will be happy to help you with that.

If it's a Korean movie your interested in, they can tell you if a showing has English subtitles or not. While generally Korean movies do not have English subtitles, I do know that the recently released Korean movies "Crossing" and "The Good, the Bad, and the Weird" did have some showings that had English subtitles. I do not know if that is the case now. Just call 1330 to find out.

Pass the info about 1330 to other foreigners. It's good to know. 1330 is very helpful.

Here's the Korea Tourism Organization (KTO) website about 1330:

Cool
