Thanks guys!
I am pretty fluent in Korean and have already begun the search for the Korean games listed in the "most wanted" section. A cursory search has shown one promising lead for "Golden Train", but that is just a lead. I am on the case anyhow.
I have some games already that may be of interest to members, but that will have to wait until later today to get images of the disks, etc ready. The disk with the Azrael's Tear demo (which is not even 6MB) has many cool early demos on it. From one .txt file on the CD:

So, some neat stuff there.
anyhow, great to be here and I will certainly do my best to get some more Korean-made goodness out there.
One question: I have no place to upload/host this stuff besides my Dropbox, which has limits. Limits which will be quickly consumed by students as my semester begins in March. If anyone has a place where I can upload things, that would probably benefit everyone.
Cheers folks and thanks for the warm welcome.
We've added some Korean platformers in the past year which are very cute. Of course, it's hard for English speakers to know of all Korean-only games which won't show up on Google searches. So, any help in finding titles, especially in the 3D shooter and adventure genres, would be greatly appreciated.
