Quick question for the Korean Americans, or anyone that knows the answer to this...

I recently got a membership (living in the US now) to Netflix and noticed that the streaming movies - if you do a search for the name of the movie (Korean), then they have the movie...but if you just browse through the available titles in the foreign/Korean section, they do not always show up there.... I was wondering if anyone knows how and when Korean movies are added to the foreign film area of Netflix. In other words, are all the big titles added, or is it selective in what they put on for streaming?

I specifically wanted to find some of the bigger title movies like "Secret Reunion" and some others on this site: http://koreanfilm.org/kfilm10.html

Thanks in advance for any insight or help.

I have not yet searched Netflix streaming to see if "Secret Reunion" is available, since I'm at work.

Watched a really good movie last night streaming titled "The Man From Nowhere" - good fight scenes! Very Happy

I'd like to know as well.

Checked recently, it said unavailable or not available.

Agree on the 2nd movie.

Know of any more not coming up under "Korean Movies"?

If this thread goes nowhere, I can send you or anyone else that is interested, a link to a Korean site where you can join (15usd/month) and you can stream just about anything Korean that you can think of. I was just trying to save some money and hoping that netflix could satisfy my Korean movie cravings.

The Korean movie industry has really changed for the better since I first went to Korea in the mid-90's. Exclamation
