Unagi in South Korea

[Stephen Cremin]

Last month, Imamura's "The Eel" (Unagi) became the third Japanese film to 
get a commercial release in South Korea following the partial lifting of 
restrictions on Japanese cultural products.  Following the failures of 
"HANA-BI" and "Kagemusha" last December, can I assume "The Eel" also didn't 
set the box office alight?  Any news on its critical and commercial 
reception would be appreciated.

Best regards,
