How do I do it? Can anyone help me out with what cables I need to hook it up to my Pavv HD. I have it currently hooked up to the tv, but I'm only getting standard def. quality. I haven't been able to find the appropriate cords to hook it up to my HDMI connection.

And, is it possible to find what I need in Busan?

Depends on which MacBook Pro you have. If it is a very old 12 inch MacBook Pro, you'll need to get a MiniDVI to DVI adapter from Apple. If it is a more recent 15" or 17" MBP with a full size DVI connector on the side, you won't need an adapter, and if it is one of the most recent MBPs, you'll need to get the Mini Display Port to DVI adapter from Apple.

The adapter will get you a full size DVI port (unless you have a MBP with a full size DVI port built in). Now you need to figure out what connections you have on your TV. Hopefully you have either HDMI or DVI on the back of your TV. If you have HDMI, you'll need to get a DVI to HDMI cable to run from the computer to the TV. If the TV has DVI, then you need a DVI to DVI cable. That will get the video in HD from your Mac to the TV. You'll also need to run an audio cable to get sound. If you have a home theater system, get an optical (digital) audio cable with the standard connector on one end, and the mini (headphone jack size) connector on the other. The audio cable and video cable should run you about 15,000 won each online. If you need one of the adapters from Apple, expect to pay around 45,000 won for it.

There are a couple "Frisbee" stores in Busan that are basically Apple stores. One is in Seomyeon. Go to exit 4 and walk to the intersection. Turn right. When you get to the next big intersection turn right again. it will be on your right (across from Migliori). There is also one in Nampo dong. It is next to the roundabout with the strange statue along the main shopping street (the one way road, near PIFF)
