Continuity mistake: Tae-ho picks up a small phone-like device and starts reading through the call logs. In one shot, he has a left finger and a right finger shown placed against the back of the device, near the top side. In a close-up shot of the device, we can see his fingers are now positioned much lower down. (00:27:02)

Continuity mistake: Just after Sullivan tells someone to bring him Dorothy, the scene cuts back to the ship. There is a book of paper sheets to draw on and a box of crayons shown in front of Dorothy.

Other mistake: When Tae-ho and Kot-nim are discovered hiding in the air vent and the two of them are scanned, Tae-ho's personal information profile lists his date of birth as "2062.09.19", but later when Sullivan is looking through the profiles of each of the crew members, Tae-ho's birth date is listed as 06/19/2058. (01:14:40 - 01:22:20)

Casual Person

Other mistake: After Jang tells Pierre to get the money, the scene cuts to a woman saying, in English "It's a 99.9 percent DNA match", but the captions read [in German] instead of [in English]. The same mistake happens again when she says "We're synced" and the captions read [woman in German] instead of [woman in English]. (02:06:08 - 02:06:40)

Casual Person

Other mistake: When the assassin is trapped inside the airlock with Tiger, she chokes him, and he collapses. The assassin then begins to walk back to the door to the ship, but just as she is about to open the door, Tiger sneaks up behind her and opens the airlock. There is no way she wouldn't have heard Tiger approaching her. The space was very confined and would have heard his footsteps whilst walking up to her. (01:52:05)
