I am looking for a DVD copy or download from a reputable site with English sub-titles or audio of this movie to purchase. I found a legal way that should work to get a Region 2 or 3 DVD region to work without having to get another DVD player. It’s a sad, but poignant movie.
My friend purchased the movie Taegukgi (Brotherhood of War) https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Taegukgi_(film) – on iTunes. It’s in Korean with no English sub-titles or audio. He tried to find a version with English sub-titles or audio, but they aren’t sold in the U. S. outside of some DVD copies on EBay that are region restricted – Europe or Asia. Amazon.com has a link that shows unavailable at this time, but with the notice
Our agreements with the content provider don’t allow purchases of this title at this time.
I see similar restrictions on other sites that offer the movie.
Wow this movie sounds very intense I wish there were English subtitles. Have you heard of this movie before? It was very very good https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Joint_Security_Area_(film)

No, I haven’t. Wonder if it’s available on one of the pay channels (Hulu, Netflix, Disney+, Amazon Prime)? A friend has all of those. He’s the one that showed me The Brotherhood of War. It sounds like something he would watch.
On the other movie, there are English sub-titles, but only for non-U. S. versions. According to a friend, if I bought a copy of it, burned it to a DVD and played it on a standard DVD player on a laptop, it should get around the region restriction. That’s cheaper than buying a DVD player that’s plays the regions it works in.

Looks like it’s available on Netflix. Going to check with my friend to see if he’s game to check it out. Unlike him, I like to check out a movie using Wikipedia, IMDB, and other sources beforehand. He likes to be surprised so I won’t give him too many details, other than the basic premise.
I read Night of the Living Trekkies, about zombies invading a Star Trek convention. About halfway through, it was slow going so I read the last few paragraphs at the end of the book. The ending intrigued me enough to keep reading. It came out 2010 and thought the ending was leading to a sequel. As of a few minutes ago, I haven’t seen a sequel show up.

I don’t remember if I blogged on it, but back in the late 1980s or early 1990s, I watched a murder mystery. Five minutes into it, I predicted the murderer, the murder victim, and the innocent who was going to be framed for the murder. I watched it expecting a plot twist, but there wasn’t one. That’s why I like reading about books and movies up front. My friend invited me last minute to Ad Aspera. Had I the time, I would have researched it and said no thanks. Great special effects, but it was too confusing as to what was going on. I am not a fan of a lot of jumping back and forth between the present and the past. A few flashbacks not a problem. In some cases, it was obvious when the switch happened, but other times I had to look it up later as I wasn’t sure – now or the past.
