OVERALL: Draw
The German release contain two versions of the film (Hong Kong [in 1080p] and Extended Taiwan [in 720p]), but has lossy audio.
While the Korean release only has the Hong Kong Version, but has lossless audio.
To see the differences between the original Hong Kong version, and the shorter US version, please see Movie Censorship. There is also a longer Taiwanese version which adds a few minutes to a flashback but removes some gore from two scenes. -
