I know this is an odd question, but what (family friendly) Blurays have a Korean language track?

As far as I know, there are not many movies with Korean audio: The Host, Oldboy, Monster House and (releasing this week) the anime Sky Blue. There are quite a few movies, however, with Korean subtitles.

Also, I believe the following IMAX nature documentaries all have Korean audio, but I'd double-check the box art on somewhere like dvdempire.com if you are thinking of blind-buying:

- Africa: The Serengeti
- Alaska: Spirit of the Wild
- Antarctica: An Adventure of a Different Nature
- Australia: The Land Beyond Time

EDIT: I missed the family friendly part, so probably only Monster House and the documentaries would apply. I rather enjoyed Monster House, so that might be a good pickup.

EDIT 2: Also, I just checked my Chronicles of Narnia: The Lion, the Witch and the Wardrobe to make sure first, but it does indeed also have a 5.1 Dolby Digital Korean language track, even though this is not advertised on the box (along with the disc's Portuguese and Thai audio).

Here is a list of Korean audio (http://www.cinemasquid.com/MovieList.aspx?AudioLanguageFilter=23) as I know it. You can also try out search function at Blu-ray.com (http://www.blu-ray.com/movies/search.php) to look for things like this.

THANKS!!! I went through all of my box art and saw Monster House but was actually particularly disappointed that Narnia did not have a Korean audio track listed, so the news you've just given is AWESOME!!

Thanks again cinemasquid!

Oh, and thanks for the Bluray link as well. I didn't know that was there, it is VERY nice.

Since Narnia didn't advertise the Korean track, I wonder how many more there are?
