Please stay tuned for more details.

Thanks to our international customers, Plain Archive's Exclusive and Limited Edition 003 <THE KING OF PIGS> Blu-ray is now sold out.

We've already sold approximately 820 copies of DVDPRIME EXCLUSIVE Edition which were marketed toward domestic (Korean) customers.

200 copies were sold to our international customers, but unfortunately our stock was limited. We're receiving complaints and re-print requests as we speak.

Spreading our hard work to as many people as possible is one of the things we want to achieve as a company. Upsetting our customers due to limited availability is the last thing we want to do.

<THE KINGS OF PIGS> Standard Edition will also have the same number as our first print –– 003. However, you can expect it to miss a few things from the original, like the Limited Edition number sticker and thick booklet. It will maintain a high overall quality and include a small booklet with English support. We hope this upcoming edition of <THE KINGS OF PIGS> will be enough to satisfy those who missed out on the Limited Edition.

We're also planning to do the same with Plain Archive 001 <MELANCHOLIA> 

* Pre-order will start mid July.

To our international customers,

With the release of The Wrestler and Melancholia, we were able to physically show you that we care about the quality of our products. However, we feel that our intentions and goals need to be better communicated.

So here it is.

Plain Archive is excited to announce the release of I Saw The Devil Steelbook. We've been asked by Blue Kino, another Korean Blu-ray company to design the Steelbook edition which will be PLAIN ARCHIVE's exclusive. It will be released this Summer.

We were hoping to release the world's first Steelbook edition of I Saw The Devil, but Zavvi announced its own before we could. The news made us reconsider the project, but with director Kim Jee-woon's support, we couldn't drop it.

I Saw The Devil Steelbook will be released under the approval of director Kim, and we are working on the artwork as we speak.

* It is not the final artwork for steelbook
