TRIVIA

Trivia

The all-time most-watched film in South Korea. 17.6 million tickets were sold nationwide.

The set pieces, costumes, weapons, and more were all designed and constructed after extensive research. For example, the crew designed a Japanese warship that was so realistic, when they sent it to a historical museum in Japan for confirmation, the historians there were in awe.

Only 8 ships were built for the film--the rest were constructed by CG.

Many extras who wore armor in the film suffered neck pain.
