| just curious do the movies in korea have a korean voice over the american voice and english subtitles, or just a korean voice and no subtitles, or the actual english voice, and everyone in korea has to read the korean subtitles? What does a movie generally cost? |

| Subtitles...almost always. Never spent more than 10,000 won at a movie. |

| Real English voices, Korean subtitles. On TV sometimes they have korean voices on English movies with english subtitles....really hard to watch I think. |

| At the theatres, movies generally are in their recorded languages with Korean subtitles on the side. Movies on t.v. tend to have more Korean voice overs, but many are in English with Korean subtitles. |

Renting movies is really cheap. I rented a DVD today for 2000 won. Videos are probably even cheaper. All I remember is that I used to pay more in late fines because of my naughty room mates.
Last time I went to the movies here (about 9 months ago!) I paid about 6,000 won, but that wasn't in Seoul and it was a horrible, dirty old theatre.
There are also DVD and Video Rooms where you can hire a movie with a few friends and watch it on a big screen TV with awesome sound and comfy couches in your own private room. These rooms are also known as substitute love motels for young couples ...
Edit: They start at about 9,000 or 10,000 for two people and go up from there, depending on how many in your party. |

Movies with Korean dubbing on TV often have English on the secondary audio channel. |

They cut the hell out of movies, to the point of eliminating key plot points.
ie the Crow that really pissed me off. |
