Where to Purchase Films & Dramas

Keep in mind the multiple ways of spelling Woo-Sung's name:  Kam Woo-Sung; Gam Woo-Sung; Kam Woo-Seong; Karm Woo-Seong, etc., when searching for his work.  Also, keep in mind whether your DVD player is capable of playing DVDs from the region from which you are buying the movie; whether the film has the original Korean track, (so you can hear WS's voice), and whether the subtitles are the language you need.  If you haven't bought a multi-regional DVD player, that can play discs from all over the world, you may want to look into that.  Brands like Phillips, and LG, make these machines, some are also multi-regional BluRay players, as well.

I've had the best luck with buying from Ebay and Amazon, usually from independent sellers.  Han Books no longer has copies of "Big Bang." I don't know why they still have it listed, as the film is "out of print."  You may run into this often, even at Yes Asia, since much of Woo-sung's work is not so recent.  It *is* frustrating.
