Page 1 of AZUMI Which version?

Does anybody have the Korean 2-disk version of this? The region 2 version is available from cdwow for £13.49 (using discount link) on monday, here is the only review I can find:

Hkflix have the korean version for about £14, which has DTS (which UK version doesn`t) and 2.0 soundtracks and seems to have the same extras, but do the extras have subs. Also, aren`t some Korean DVDs cut.

The Korean and UK discs are the theatrical cut, roughly 128 mins without PAL speed-up. The Japanese disc is the extended cut running around 142 mins. The French appear to be getting a 3 disc set with both cuts, doubt it`ll have English subs though. :(

I`m working on a review of this right now :D
and I`m wary of giving out too many spoilers to my review. :/

Seriously though, if you consider that the UK Region 2 has a 2 hr 3 min film(Pal), plus 2 hrs 5 minutes worth of documentaries, as well as 3 minutes of trailers. All on one dual layer disc...

Well, some sacrifices have been made. :(

These are the specs for the Japanese 2 disc Region 2

English subtitles for feature only, I believe

And here`s the website for the sequel, hope you read Japanese. :D

Thanks for the help, but does anybody know if the korean or japanese discs have subs on the extras.

The Japanese version does not have English subs for the extras, and i have never came across any korean DVDs that offer English subs either for the extras.

question is does Azumi benefit from the extra footage or is it like the earlier film Versus which could have done with some of the filler stuff being cut out to avoid over stretching a relatively short storyline
