About a year ago I saw a old Korean movie called "Queen Bee" it is so bad and cheesy but it looked sooo good. I have been looking for it and recently I was able to find the movie in computer video file format (avi). Now the movie has some English but no English Subtitles that I can find anywhere on the Internet. And (intake of breath) my Korean is not very good.

So I want to find some one who has the patience and ability to translate this 90 minute movie into English. Plus as a added bonus get to watch a old Korean Waygook-sploytation movie.

So please PM for how much you would charge/ payment details and file transferring details.

Thanks

I have a feeling you're not going to get much luck as this is quite an undertaking.

However, why not just get the DVD. All that I've viewed have had English subtitles and it would be far cheaper than having someone custom write the subs for you.

1. Check your local DVD rental shop.
2. Check your supermarket (E-mart, etc.) and buy the DVD.
3. Check online and buy it there.

Thanks for they tip Hanguker - I would buy this video but it is not available on DVD. Believe me I looked all I found was the Video in VHS for sale on one or two Korean sites and once again sans Subtitles. I was lucky to find the video in video file format. I was going to buy the VHS tape and get it converted but was lucky.

I agree this might be too hard of a thing to ask for but it is worth trying.

A link to the movie for those interested...
