Old Boy Dvd?
 

Anyone know when this new Park (Sympathy for Mr. Vengeance and JSA) will be out on dvd?
OLDBOY IS THE TITLE OF HIS NEW FILM
thanks

It is still playing in theaters in Korea so I doubt you'll see a DVD release for a few months at least.

any new news on this dvd?

The only news I've heard is that it has been slated to hit DVD sometime in March of 2004, but no specific day was mentioned. Korean DVDs are notorious for being delayed however, so I wouldn't hold your breath.

Being delayed? You're not kidding. I've been waiting for the Bruce Lee box set since SEPTEMBER!!! Right now, it's supposed to be February 18th, but I don't know anymore.

As for Old Boy, I'm guessing March or April. That's sounds about right.

any new news on oldboy or a release date?

Here's a good place to look for info on Korean DVD's:

Looks like it is coming out on 5/10 on Korean DVD.

Where is the dancing banana when you need him? Oh, and does any reputable site have this up to order yet? :)

Are the short features subtitled as well? And I'd like to see a pic of it. :) Where can one preorder if one was so inclined?

Yes... those are very important questions!

This is probably gonna cost a fortune.

And I want this too.

October 11th is the expected release date
(also, the DTS track is going to be on the UE it seems)

The Korean retail price is 99,000 Won which equals
$85.75 US

I seriously doubt English subtitles on the extras as usual,
this is a great double dipper for Korean speakers,
but not much for the foreigners

I agree, is the movie a different cut at least?

I'm seriously considering this. I abosolutely loved the soundtrack, and I haven no doubt that it will not only be rare, but also look amazing.

A hand-made copper case? This could easily be a $100 item.

I probably can't justify a double-dip, but I'm anxious to at least see some pics of the case.

85 bucks is too steep for me, but I'd still like to see it. Maybe if one of you orders it, you can have me over so I can touch it and get my picture taken with it.

What's the point of all this when there are no English subs on any of the extras?

You don't have to understand korean to appreciate the OST, book, music video or packaging.

Amen to that!!!! :D

here's the pic of case.
