Mistakes
In the scene where Korean military officers are looking at a map of the Korean Peninsula (ignoring for a moment that the Koreans' map is in English), the map's description of the body of water between the Korean Peninsula and the Japanese Archipelago is a glaring error to anyone who knows about East Asian history. Most of the world knows of this body of water as the "Sea of Japan," but both North and South Korea have always called it by its historic name, the East Sea. The South Koreans are actively involved - with some considerable success - in an effort to get cartographers, governments, and international organizations to change the name back to East Sea, or at least have both Sea of Japan and East Sea recognized. At any rate, since the issue involves a good deal of lingering resentment owing to Japan's brutal forty-year occupation of Korea, absolutely no Korean-made map would label this body of water only as "Sea of Japan."
