The original title of the film as listed in IMDB is "Shimotsuma monogatari". However, in the West it's known as "Kamikaze Girls". The Korean title is ???? ???, which Altavista translates to "Defective princess Momoko". Which one is correct?
*edit*
Korean title: http://www.mydvdlist.co.kr/mdlkth/detail.asp?id=376041
On the disc itself it says Shimotsuma Story. The Korean title is below that in a slightly smaller font. | | | | Last edited: by Jnzk |

Setting aside sources for the moment, my guess is Shimotsuma Monogatari is the westernised version of the Korean title so I would say go with that rather than the translated to English title. If Profiler could handle non-western characters then obviously you'd go with the actual Korean title. | | | | IVS Registered: January 2, 2002 |
