Ok a small update,

Today I have purchased the Korean 2 disc special edition DVD release of (Musa) the Warrior (Region 3)

The title of the film is “Musa” which translates as “The Warrior”

I have noticed the sound mix was re-done in a few places in the international cut vs the original theatrical Korean release. Have not made up my mind which I prefer but the international release initially seems better choices of music near the end of the film and a music cut smoothed out on one scene.

Apart from that I await the delivery of the DVD. It claims to have English subtitles also so this could only perhaps be for the special edition release which may not have been available initially upon first DVD releases in Korea.

EDIT

The 2 Disc Korean Theatrical version got delivered yesterday. It is a much better quality no smearing and the colors are good. I put it in my old DVD player for which I have unlocked it to be Region free, but the motor is playing up inside of the DVD player so the disc got stuck in there and the buttons are intermittent on the front of it. So after a bit of stress and thinking I would have to open the player up to get the disc back out It some how managed to finally spit the disc out with a bit help from my hand. Thank goodness!

The subtitles are really quite poorly translated on the Korean version so buying the Swedish release was not a waste of money although the picture quality is much worse than the Korean release the subtitles can be used as the main basis for the theatrical cuts subtitles but already I have noticed a few differences in the translation in the Korean version to the Swedish version and the UK version. So 3 separate translations of quite a long film of varying quality.
