Many bootlegs for this title are derrived from the Japanese laserdisc
version (identifiable by the Japanese language subtitles during the song
sequences), but am told that there was a limited Korean laserdisc issue
that was intended for rental only and it does not contain any subtitles
(saw it on Ebay once for about $600). Perhaps it is the source for this
Chinese DVD?
As best as I can tell, the only LEGAL copies commercially available are in
PAL format only. You need a to purchase special VCR that can play
international standards, but the German version of Amazon has it; be
prepared to fork over at nearly 200 Euros for it, though:
