[img]http://www.snitchseeker.com/images/news/ootp_80.gif' align='middle'> Harry in Hangul -

Summary:


Article:

Seoul's Kyobo Bookstore (the biggest and nicest one in Seoul) now has Order of the Phoenix in Hangul (the written language for Korean). The HP books in Korea (and some other Asian countries) are broken into multiple volumes, presumably to make the cost seem less. (it doesn't if you read the whole book, and who would stop in the middle?) The first two HP books were two volumes each, book three was three, book four was four, and five is five.

Anyonghaseyo! (Korean for "so long!")

thanks to TLC user Glenn

Yeah...right! It seems to be quite weird if they break everything up into smaller volume!

Why would you divide PoA? I eman...it's practically the same as CoS isnt it? For GoF...fair enoughg....same with OoTP!

it's korean. i think splitting the books is just to make more money, the translations wouldn't be THAT much bigger and they're all softcover so you're not really getting your money's worth. my mom reads them in hangul and they cost a fortune, especially to get them sent to canada.
