That's bizarre seeing as Umbrella are an Australian outfit. It's not like Korean is spoken on Oz.

Does anybody else have a problem with Umbrella discs? Practically every disc I've put in the players (both Sony) freeze up the players when I stop the discs. They play fine it's just when I press stop they freeze and I have to unplug them.

They've admitted it was a mistake but it doesn't look like they're doing much about it.

I don?t have a Sony player any more, but yes I?ve had this with a few of their discs, Night of the Living Dead 1990 is one of them and I think Electric Boogaloo is another.

Looks like it not just the commentary track:

According to a footnote on the DVD Compare review of the film

"Umbrella Entertainment has informed us that the disc was mistakenly authored with a number of Korean language extras lacking their English translation subtitle tracks. Unfortunately as the title has been a slow seller, it was decided that issuing replacement discs was too costly, and therefore purchasers who are unsatisfied are entitled to a full refund by contacting Umbrella Entertainment's Customer Service."
