General Notes:
Before the film starts some Korean text is displayed, on the Korean release this is not subtitled, a rough translation appears below.
"This film is based on Silmido Unit 684, established in 1968.
Since precise data about this unit has not yet been made available, artistic license has been used in depicting details about the unit, its members' background, and related incidents.
This film bears no resemblence to any other units, past or present.
We hope this film can bring small consolation to the men who gave their lives for their country, and their families." -
