Episode #1.1 - S1-E1

Factual error: In the flashback that shows the fate of Ae-sin's parents whilst Ae-sin is a baby, several characters can be seen using a Mauser C96 pistol. These include the father when he tries to shoot Wan-ik, the mother when the soldiers come for her, and the man standing beside Wan-ik who shoots the father. The flashback takes place over 20 years before the main story takes place, which would have set it in the 1870s, but the Mauser C96 pistol was not first designed until 1895. (00:56:10 - 00:58:03)

Audio problem: Deok-mun is approached by Eugene. There is a shot focusing on Eugene where Deok-mun can be seen in the corner of frame, where Deok-mun shouts "Is that why you came barging in here? This is a minister's residence." The movements of his mouth do not match up with the dialogue that is heard. (00:07:09)

Episode #1.12 - S1-E12

Other mistake: Dong-mae grabs a sword and slits the throat of a Japanese man, which causes blood to get splattered over both the left and right side of his face, as well as his neck and his chest. This would not be possible for multiple reasons. One, the slit was relatively small, so there wouldn't have been that much blood. Two, Dong-mae was standing too far away from him for the blood to travel that far. Three, Dong-mae had his head turned away from the man when he slit his throat. (00:43:19)
