Mewtwo to be distributed in Korea: 'Mewtwo Strikes Back!' to air on Korean TV

A Mewtwo will be distributed in Korea starting Feb. 16. This Mewtwo will be distributed via both infrared and Wi-Fi connection. In addition, the movie Mewtwo Strikes Back! will air on Korean cable TV.

I find weird that this was posted on February 6th, which, according to the games, is Mewtwo's birthday.
 
Strange...Is this the first time Korean TV has actually showed any Pokemon movie?

No. Korea had actually shown a lot of Pokemon movies in the Korean dub - in the theaters AND cable TV. Mewtwo Strikes Back had been in the theaters and it had been very succesful. The dubbed VCR and DVDs are still selling. I think they mean it's the first time Mewtwo Strikes Back is aired on cable TV. Lugia was also in the theaters, but movies 3, 4, and 5 had been skipped - none of them had been in the theaters or on TV. At LEAST I think so because I never saw any advertisements about them when pokemon is hugely popular.

However, Movie 6, 7, and 8 HAD aired on cable TV, but never in theaters. Movie 9, 12, 13, and 14 have all been in the theaters and on cable TV (except for 14 - it'll show up soon, though). I can't recall Movie 10 and 11 ever being in the theaters but they were definitely on cable TV.

ALL dubs - no subs XDD

Though... it's quite nostalgic. I remember when I was a little kid and Mewtwo Strikes Back had first been in the theaters. It had been my very first time going to the theaters alone and I was very excited. They gave out surprise gifts as souvenirs and special cards... XDD I did cry at the ending...XDD Maybe I should flip the TV on and watch it XDD

Funny coincidence. It was announced on Feb 2, I didn't see it until Feb 5, on which day I got someone to translate it, and due to a timezone difference didn't get it back until Feb 6. I wish all of these Mewtwo events just started on Feb 6 to show that TCPi actually knows that it is Mewtwo's birthday.
 
I already have a Mewtwo LVL. 100, so I think i'm good. But of course Korea has some nice events and such, so be sure to check it out guys.
