OK, the DVD itself has OK subs as far as I can tell, but the box summary for the Korean dorama Spring Waltz is an attack of Engrish gone mad:

This play will continue the tin lake director style of consistent only beautiful pure feeling, relating an emotion story that crosses the timespace to separate. Male hostess Mr. of the story is a rightness of at south china sea was beautiful islet of shore up grow up of childhood friends, scatter from now on because once surprised, many after year two people are in the home town of the waltz Austria once more heavy meet, two people that heart carries on the back the shadow and distresses, greet again a wisp of sunlight within life under the warmth of the love. HAN2 XIAO4 ZHU who plays woman's No. 1 is near an a stars that Korean show biz of in the last years flees to rise, in the near future from she three the light comedy film that play a teacher integral whole with the small cost won over 6,000,000 view numbers of receipt of a film outstanding score, succeed before beating into the tallest receipt of a film in Korean movie history ten strong, very stirring focus attention. Star HAN2 XIAO4 ZHU of the television drama to also mean to will work hard to attain for the very firt time best, don't be ungrateful to the lead to own cultivation. In the lord that yesterday be unveiled create personnel, the half-blooded absolutely keeps most of the eye...

OK, I honestly have no idea what they are talking about. Could is be a secret code?

I was horrified and thought the show subs would be just as bad, but the subs for the eps themselves are fine. No idea what is with that (unlike Goong where subs themselves are just as horrible).

no offense to chinese people, but mostly when they do subbing, i get migraines. BIG ones. and its hard to follow through sometimes because they use chinese name equivalent in the subs and the He/She gender issue gets mixed up. that might be the case of your Spring Waltz... which i also have but heck i havent seen it, then again i probably have 30 kdramas here in our house that i havent seen

which is why sometimes its better to get fan-subs, because its soooo much better for my health (and english grammar).

I prefer to think it's a super secret spy code.

LMAO!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! *dies*

WTF WAS THAT??? LOL I have no idea what I just read. I really loved Spring Waltz(My first kdrama EE!) and that summary is no where close to the actual plot. I guess the only part right is Austria, lol. I'm seriously in tears. Thank you :P
