The Korean R0 has a director approved Aspect Ratio, DTS sound (That's reportedly better than the HK R3 version) and an extensive set of extras (although most are in Korean only).
If you cannot understand Korean, then check out either the US R1 or the UK R0, although their extras aren't as extensive as the Korean release (what extras they do have are subtitled) and both seem to have an excellent transfer.
Fans might also like to check out the Scandinavia 2-Disc release for some nice unique extras, however it is unknown at this stage which of the extras on this release are subtitled. -
