Talk:Flu (film)

The title of the film
The English title of the film as used by the Korean Film Council is kind of irrelevant. This article should be titled by the name used in the English-speaking world (US, UK, etc. - WP:NCF, WP:EN) and that title is FLU. Just giving the heads up before moving it back.

 * The Korean Film Council lists in their database what the Korean studios/production companies themselves have designated as the official English-language international title of a movie (for purposes of release, promotion, etc.). There's no need for an "aka" since the original Korean title literally translates to "Flu" anyway. The contention here is the use of "The" in the title. Regarding what is "used in the English-speaking world," trade papers such as Variety, The Hollywood Reporter, Screen International and Film Business Asia use both: "Flu"      vs. "The Flu"      . So given that both are in use and the English meaning the same, I think it best to default to the international title chosen by the production company in the first place (rather than some arbitrary gauge). As I previously mentioned in my edit summary, even the official movie poster clearly states "The Flu" in English (below the Korean title in Hangul)  .

 * The title used by the distributors in English-speaking countries is the main title used in Wikipedia articles. Read WP:NCF and WP:EN if in doubt. Since the title "The Flu" is clearly an alternative used in Korea, it can be listed as an AKA. That title may have also been used at a festival or two, hence a small number of old, English-language articles also using that title.  F i l m F a n  06:46, 30 September 2014 (UTC)
