Ok i understand that for people who are not used to read subtitles, it's a really horrible experiene.. i was like that too..
But then why not just make a professional dubbing and show the original movie with original actors on TV and so on?? Isn't it better??

I’m glad they’re making it because I have dyslexia and ADHD so it’s really tough for me to be able to enjoy foreign films with subtitles. 😣 I’ve always wanted to watch this movie.

Hello.
I love Train to Busan with all my heart. I don't care who does the remake, NOTHING can beat this masterful movie. Watch the original, South Korean movie. It has #madongseok and #GongYoo and we don't need anyone replaced by an american cast. pic.twitter.com/6yMV6yvHYt

I think part of the original’s appeal was the fact that it took place in a country where firearms aren’t likely to be available in a given situation like they are in the US, leading to characters needing to improvise weapons
