again, Korean distorting the History
I believe there are inaccuracies in many Korean historical movies as they often portray events in a way that may not align with historical facts. This movie again proves my point because it is misleading and does not represent the actual history. It is essential to acknowledge that during the invasion, Korea was in a vulnerable position and relied on China for support. Japan most likely would defeat Korea without China's navy. While stating this, I understand that sharing these views might provoke adverse reactions from some individuals. However, it is crucial to realize that distorting historical events will not change the reality of the past.
Besides the historical inaccuracy, this movie is slow and puts me to sleep. I was only awakened by the battle scene. I would not recommend this work to any historical movie lovers.
