Plot hole: After Ae-sin shoots Wan-ik and flees, Hina shoots Dr. Matsuyama with a six-shooter and plants the gun in his hand to make it appear as if he shot both Wan-ik and himself in a murder-suicide. However, Ae-sin shot Wan-ik with a rifle, meaning the bullets that were used to shoot Wan-ik and the bullet that was used to shoot the doctor were completely different bullets; the authorities would realise this when an autopsy on the two is performed.

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)

Continuity mistake: When Ae-sin is in Hui-seong's room, and he is preparing an escape from her, in the shot where Hui-seong starts saying "I don't know if this will work", Ae-sin's hair can be seen going over her left shoulder. The shot cuts to Hui-seong, then when it cuts back to Ae-sin, her hair is now directly on her left shoulder. A couple of shots after that, her hair is suddenly over her left shoulder again. (00:07:18)

Continuity mistake: When Ae-sin is practising her shooting skills, in a shot focusing on her, we can see her thumb is placed along the side of the rifle at a horizontal angle. When the shot cuts, her thumb is at a vertical angle. Then two shots after that, at a horizontal angle again. (00:58:33)

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)
