COMMUNITY REVIEWS

A fictional story using a historical important name. submitted by Petri409 on February 23, 2020, 10:43am I bought this believing it would impart some historical facts within a story. Unfortunately, the story is completely fictional and borrows the name of Yi Sun-sin (Sun-sin did not create the 'Turtle Ship', it proceeded him by 150 years). The overall story is false and in my opinion the theme undermines our traditional Korean heritage that imparts the importance and wisdom of elders.
