May 31, 2012 3 in 1a magician who uses horror as a part of his show, but can he handle it when the girl he falls for shows him ghost do exist?
a romance comedy horror. reminding me a little bit of six sense the american movie. this film was a definite plus for me as wasn't just a comedy romance movie. the touch of horror with ghosts made it perfect for someone like me.

Ghost (2010) (DVD) (Korea Version)
Ghost (2010) (DVD) (Korea Version) DVD Region 3
(3)Our Price: US$27.99List: US$36.99Save: US$9.00 (24%)Usually ships within 1 to 2 daysRelated promotions:May 27, 2012 I want moreThis is a really a good movie containing 3 short ghost stories. Maybe I remember wrong, but im sure its 3 stories not 4 unless the introduction counts as four. It definitely has its moments of scary spooky scenes while containing some sentimental scenes and some laughter. Its not your typical low budget film you expect especially when you contain actors and actreseses who have started in some well known films listed in the yesasia editorial description. I definitely demand more ghost stories like these on the screen. I can't wait for more!
briefly this films contains a story rather classic regarding why we do not want to enter an old run down school, another story where friends are forever, and the final story where the main actor can see ghost.

Gye Baek Vol. 1 of 2 (DVD) (6-Disc) (MBC TV Drama) (Korea Version)
Gye Baek Vol. 1 of 2 (DVD) (6-Disc) (MBC TV Drama) (Korea Version) DVD Region 3
(1)Our Price: US$89.99List: US$123.99Save: US$34.00 (27%)Usually ships within 7 - 14 daysRelated promotions:May 7, 2012 GyeBaek the god of warAlthough the history of GyeBaek is vague besides his final battle where he falls. I would like to think of him as the korean ZhaoZilong(chinese three kingdoms whom I greatly admire) known for his loyalty, courage, and prowess in battle. If such a general existed as the drama portrays. Gye Baek is definitely a hero to be remembered and honored for years to come. Love by the people. Feared by his enemies. He helps the king who was once his sworn blood brother forge a path with countless victories until the day where it will be the last battle of Baekje kingdom.

May 5, 2012 quality could be betterthis deserves 5 stars, but the quality disappointed me a bit being on blu-ray as well. I'm a huge t-ara fan so it hurts me to give less than 5 stars, but whoever produced this dvd should of did a beter job on the quality. I even hoped it was just some really bad dust on my screenn lol..it doesnt look as crispy like it should be. gotta love the eng subs though!!!

May 2, 2012 JumongLike the god of the bow and arrow. whether it can bend and curve the way Nam Yi can control his weapons. It's definitely more convincing than curving bullets. Reminding me also a bit of apocalypto. It's a race to save his sister while fighting his enemies who are trying to capture him or rather kill him.
A piece of history + action packed = learning made fun without knowing

April 12, 2012 an idol is bornMaybe its because im into Kpop and sometimes dreaming that I should have went down the same road that I gave it the score I did. How true we don't know, but the movie briefly describes what most idols go through in korea to train to be who they are today. Does it really matter what they did in the past? everyone was young and if not still is, but who hasn't done something stupid. I think this movie was made to help the audience understand idols better.
The title song that they sing is repeated often, but its very easy to listen to, soothing, and then it goes upbeat during the chorus parts.
If you watched family outing. its nice to see park ye jin and kim sooro again.

April 12, 2012 child molesters and abusersThis is a very good film even though its very sick. So called honorable, respected, and believers of Christ taking advantage of their reputation to molest children is just disgusting. You hear about these days every so often from the news, but to watch it on film brings it to another level. This film got me all fired up.

(11)Our Price: US$99.99Related promotions:March 19, 2012 funny & cuteI found myself laughing throughout the drama. lots of scenes are very funny. they even made a few touching or sad scenes funny by throwing in a bit of comedy. Although I wasn't attracted to park shin hye at first, but i think i am now. She is soo damn cute. I can't get enough of her aeygo and silly expressions. Being into k-pop myself. The storyline fit very well for me even though there wasn't much singing, but it was hilarious watching their fanclub.

(2)Our Price: US$64.99List: US$99.99Save: US$35.00 (35%)Related promotions:February 15, 2012 Outlaw City HunterCrime never pays, but the law sure works when its protecting anyone including the bad guys . Lee Min Ho plays as Yoon Sung the tall, handsome, and cool outlaw who goes by all and any means to bring the corrupted to justice. He isn't just here to show that crime doesn't pay, but seeking a revenge dating back 28 years ago.
Park Min Young play as Nana a cute, pretty, and bodyguard to be messed with. Due to a tragic car accident that causes her mom's death and leaves her dad in a coma. She lives a poor life while trying to be bright and finding anyway to make ends meet. Accidentally or not she somewhat becomes the City Hunters friend even though doesn't know that he is the city hunter. To Nana, Yoon Sung is just an expert of one night stands and always seems to intrude in her life just when things can't seem to be worst.
Different from the original city hunter, but somewhat similar with incidents and what is shown at times. It's unique how everything throughout the drama is related to one another. Nothing happened for no reason. everything that happened is connected to the characters in this drama.

Prosecutor Princess (DVD) (6-Disc) (English Subtitled) (End) (SBS TV Drama) (US Version) DVD Region 1
(4)Our Price: US$99.99Related promotions:February 8, 2012 Karma, what comes around goes aroundKim Soyeon as Ma Hye Ri plays a perfect rich girl who just wants to enjoy her life doing what she wants. well kind of. To be able to spend her father's wealth she makes the sacrifice of becoming a prosecutor. Her excellent memory and ability to focus when needed really makes up for her simple mind. Although not exactly liked by her colleagues, but I think it'll take anyone time to get use to a spoiled princess wouldn't you agree? Luckily for her, she meets lawyer Seo In Woo who seems to be like a guardian angel. Little does she know that In woo actually has a motive for being around her.
It's hilarious and cute. Kim Soyeon is so adorable and lovely in this drama. she's almost like an opposite version of my sassy girl and she played her role damn well.

January 28, 2012 another good korean war movieI've never been disappointed with korean war movies. This one didn't let me down either. This movie really shows the meaning of sacrifices must be made especially if the team is to survive. In this movie. A good commander is a dead commander. An endless battle over a hill that keeps exchanging ownership changes the view of soldiers longing to go home. North or south. both tired and both wanting to go home eventually find a way to share some peace with one another without ever meeting. A ceasefire agreement that isn't valid until hours before a deadly final seige. the outcome? makes you wonder if there is any difference between the separated country.

My Girlfriend is a Gumiho (DVD) (6-Disc) (English Subtitled) (SBS TV Drama) (US Version) DVD Region 1
(4)Our Price: US$99.99Related promotions:January 26, 2012 i'd like a gumiho as a girl friend too!sweet, romantic, cute and funny....all the actors and actress really played their roles right. shin min ah was super cute in this drama. she acted as the perfect gumiho who is new to this human world.
Sung Dong Il plays as a director in the drama who is fascinated with what he calls real action. He dresses most of the time like chow yun fat from the hit movie a better tomorrow. They even play bits of Leslie Cheung theme songs from 2 of his hit movies which i found awesome.
Lee Seung Gi stars as the cowardly fool who is trying to get rid of the gumiho, but eventually falls for the cute naive yet sincere gumiho and becomes a brave man of responsibility.

Fortune Salon (DVD) (Single Disc) (Korea Version) DVD Region 3
(1)Our Price: US$14.99List: US$25.99Save: US$11.00 (42%)Usually ships within 1 to 2 daysRelated promotions:December 1, 2011 Good price for a good laughYou got a lovely girl Tae Rang(park ye jin) who is on the dot with your fortune even if you may not like it. Sure as hell shuts people up when they try to yell at her for something and she starts reading their fortune which is all true. For her own fortune, she has to find her true destiny or give bad luck to all the other felllows she tries to date. Then you have the opposite of all girls dreams Seung Won(Lim Chang Jung) who makes a living attempting(you'll see what i mean in the movie) to taking urine samples of horses. Not even sure if he even makes a living doing that either since he is about to be evicted from his home. They are definitely destined to meet, but is it fortunate or unfortunately when Tae Rang finds out that Seung Won isn't her true destiny.....
Bought this mainly for park ye jin after watching family outing, but to my surprise Lim Chang Jung was also in this which made it a plus. I really thought it was funny when Tae Rang got into an accident or well caused an accident and was being yelled at by the stranger. She then told the person's fortune and the person changed his expression asking for help right away. I would too if a fortune teller could just instantly tell me events that happened recently or in the past. The ending was great too. I had a good laugh there as well. anyways if you don't know park ye jin. you might be entertained watching lim chang jung if you've seen his movies.

Super Monkey Returns (DVD) (Korea Version) DVD Region All
(1)Our Price: US$26.99List: US$35.99Save: US$9.00 (25%)Usually ships within 1 to 2 daysRelated promotions:December 1, 2011 good try?A group of selected kids are chosen to save the world from evil released after being locked away for 2000 years by the Monkey king and his friends. Scientist in present time has extracted the legendary heroes DNA from fossils and chosen 4 kid host to fit each role to battle the evils of ancient times. These kid like adults are running short on time before evil gets it way by destroying the earth's population with a evil meteor. Let the training beginning!
I guess its decent for a modern present time monkey king version and maybe a good movie for kids. The action scenes I guess can be considered semi-realistic since Byung Man does most of the stunts himself( i think), but it definitely lacked since I'm use to the all might powerful monkey king toying around and beating his foes to a pulp. Comedy wise was mediocre. A few laughs but I don't think it was anything explosive funny. not exactly what i was expecting.
