Notes

The release of "Pandemic" in South Korea (Feb. 26th, 2009) was shown with unauthorized edits by movie importer KTH Paran. Approximately 21 minutes were cut out and the ending completely altered. The unauthorized Korean version ended with subtitles that stated "By July 2011, 3,950 patients were infected with the virus and 11 million were found dead.” [1]
