Wow! The German disc blows the original Korean release away.

Not really. DE looks sometimes nicer because it's redder. But notice that people's faces also look red on DE. The second (TC & DC), fourth (TC & DC) and last (TC) cap look pretty bad on DE. The KR disc is less colourful, but often more natural. Too bad it's much softer than the DE.

If I was to choose I'd go for:
TC: KR without a doubt
DC: about draw, maybe DE (sharper, better colour in b/w scenes, worse colour in colour scenes)

I like the fact that in cap #5 you can really see her make up in the German version, while the Korean one seems rather pale.

As usual, the german disc is edge-enhanced beyond belief.
The best transfer to me is still the french one (what a surprise :D ).

Exactly the same transfer as the korean release, but slightly sharper and without the green tint.

The EE adds so much artificial grain, it makes the DE DC pretty much unwatchable in some shots. :o
I used to be "the man who loves the movies you hate".
Now I'm just "that weird french guy with a cat avatar who comes to BnB once a year for no reason and then disappears again".

I think for the DC, the DE wins (in comparison with the KR).

What transfer does the Dutch DVD have?
It's 10 euros here in holland, or in a trilogy pack bundled with Old Boy and SFMRVengeance, for 15...

Maybe someone knows if the dutch transfer is the same as the german or french, as their version might have dutch subtitles included or something? Or they might have read about it on a comparison-site ;)

Obviously, I dont know the answer as I havent seen or bought the movie yet... :)

Ok... I'm now off to do my hair by plugging my fingers into the poweroutlet, as it makes my hair stand up nice and spiky...
