Hi, my friend brought his Wii from the UK to Korea, but he isn't able to make it work here. Anything he can do to sort it out? Thanks for any help.

He needs component cables, and a TV that supports them since the UK is PAL and Korea is NTSC. The power adapter might work with only a plug adapter, but it would be safer to just buy a Korean one (UK: 230V 50Hz, SK: 220V 60Hz)

Thanks for that. Is a Wii and games bought in Korea in English, or only in Korean?

Korean games are only in Korean and won't even play on a UK Wii unless it's modded.
