- Aluminum Christmas Trees: It may seem ridiculous to suggest that Eugene would be accepted to the Naval Academy, and commissioned into the Marines, given the prejudice against non-whites in the service at the time. But, while Asian Americans in the military were certainly the exception, not the norm, they have been documented as serving in the U.S. military at various times and places since the War of 1812. As early as 1860, foreign nationals from Japan and China attended U.S. military academies. So while there is no specific historical example, it is plausible that a smart young Korean could, with a wealthy and influential patron, get a commission at that time in history.
- He Really Can Act: This show brought attention to the relatively unknown Korean actor Lee Jung-Hyun for his terrifying performance as the utterly despicable Japanese soldier Tsuda.
- Narm Charm: All of the foreign actors have heavy accents when speaking Korean, but it would be unrealistic for all of the American characters in the show, who have Korean as a second language, to speak it perfectly.
