I would wager a fair percentage of the folk who go to DVD Bangs aren't exactly too bothered about which movie they watch... indeed, I think 'Titanic' is the most popular one because it is one of the longest movies available.

Chances of seeing any of the movies you wrote about, I'm not too sure - they tend to go with Hollywood blockbusters in DVD rooms so I think that limits your choice.

Most recent Korean movie DVD releases have English subtitle options on the disc, so if you asked the attendant at the DVD Bang to turn on the subtitles then you should be set.

You might find "Waiting for Buttman" Very Happy
