A Boy who went to Heaven: Korean SE: 2Disc Amaray with Slipcase, Booklet and Postcard

That booklet looks like it has been in the washing machine, even though I got that edition sealed. Not the best packaging.

This replaces my single disc edition:

White Valentine: Korean DVD with Slipcase
(I'm not sure this is the edition I want to keep, therefore I'll leave it sealed until I really want to see it again.)

This replaces my HK DVD with slipcase.

I've seen "200 Pounds Beauty" now and can't say that I liked it. :roll:

It's a mystery (to me) why it did so well at the Box-Office ...
Anyway, good luck waiting for a Blu-Ray of "White Valentine"! They have already reduced the prices for the first few Korean Blu-Rays, before even announcing any more, so I'm (still) not convinced we will ever see a significant number of Korean Films on Korean Blu-Ray Disc. But maybe next year will prove me wrong! (Or some publisher in France or elsewhere will pick up "White Valentine" and release it as BD)

Yeah, that's a really nice digi and - once again - a great booklet. There's another one just like it, but in red for "Mr. Park". I'll try to get that one as well. It would be great if the Korean Film Archive would continue to release DVDs in these digipaks, but I guess most people who are interested in these films will be happy if they continue to release anything at all. (Still waiting for Hanyo ...)

I got two more parcels today: :oohyeah:

(sorry for the poor quality - will take more detailed pictures later this weekend)

My order-list is much shorter now

and I have plenty of films to watch for the next days. :drink:

I have now taken pics of the stuff above (except for the Marathon LE) and will upload & add them later.
For the mean time here's the DVD I got today:

Yeah, I'm also waiting all the time and then the DVDs are OOS/OOP. But that's not because I can't decide, but I'm really stingy and nearly all editions are too expensive for me at retail prices.

But now I got a "Princess Aurora" LE :tongue:

I haven't seen that film since I saw it on the big screen a few years ago.
About "Run to You": I've seen it some time back and was pleasantly surprised (wasn't expecting much). Imo it's one of the best Korean/Japanese Joint-Productions! I thought it was a low-budget film attempting to be a blockbuster, but it didn't play out that way and I liked it more than "Seoul", "Rikidozan" or "Killing the Target". You should be careful though, not everybody shares my views.

Yes, I do have a lot to watch, but from the ones above only 4 films are new to me.

Anyway, pics are now uploaded:

Princess Aurora: Korean LE in special box, with 2 sets of stickers, foldout-booklet and 2Disc Amaray. The Box is Available in 3 colors (pink, purple and claret) and is limited to 2000 copies (each I think). Some editions were supposed to be signed, but I'm not sure these exist.
