Welcome to Hotel del Luna - S1-E1
Factual error: The dead policewoman removes the bullet that she was shot in the head with. The bullet appears to be completely intact and undamaged as if never fired. Real bullets that have been fired into something or someone do not appear like this. (00:36:30)
1st May 2022
Factual error: The song Firework by Katy Perry is heard on car radios twice in the episode, but the scenes take place in March 2010, whereas the song itself wasn't released until October 2010.

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)
10th Jun 2021
Factual error: When Eugene is searching through the drawers for the list of Joseon mobs, a book with Yogi Berra listed on the spine can be seen on top of the drawers. Yogi Berra didn't begin his baseball career until 1946, and he wasn't even born until 1925, over 20 years after this episode takes place. (00:18:40)
10th Jun 2021
Factual error: Ae-sun is shown carrying a bag filled with gold bars with virtually no struggle. Gold bars are heavy, and carrying around an entire bag filled with them, without struggling, would be extremely difficult to do. (00:08:44)
27th May 2021
Factual error: Eugene is given a return order from the President telling him to return to America. The name of the President listed on the order is Franklin D. Roosevelt, but he did not become President until 1933. In 1904, when the episode takes place, Theodore Roosevelt was the President. (01:08:16)
27th May 2021
Factual error: On the wooden globe in Eugene's office, China is listed with the name "People's Republic of China." This name was not first proclaimed until 1949, whereas this episode takes place in 1903. (00:27:28)
27th May 2021
Factual error: Joseph is given an American military funeral. The coffin, when placed in the ground, is shown with an American flag placed on top of it. Eugene sprinkles some soil over the coffin (with the flag on top of it), however burial flags are always removed prior to the actual burial, folded and then handed to the next of kin, so the soil he sprinkled would not be included in the actual burial. (00:29:10)
24th May 2021
Episode #1.1 - S1-E1
Factual error: The American flag shown waving outside the White House is the current present-day flag with 50 stars. From 1896 to 1908, (the time period that this show is set in) the US flag only had 45 stars as Oklahoma, New Mexico, Nebraska, Alaska and Hawaii were not recognised as states in that time period. The flag did not have 50 stars until 1960. (00:04:30)
18th Feb 2021
Factual error: When Cassie finds Bryan's phone, Federico sends a text containing a video of Bryan cheating on Cassie. The time displayed on the phone is 6:35PM and the date displayed is May 7, however the scene currently takes place at night and every time an exterior shot of the house is shown during this time, the sky is dark. 6:35PM in May is way too early of a time in the evening for it to already be the middle of night. At that time of year, the sun would not set until much later in the evening. (01:10:55)
14th Feb 2021
Factual error: The opening scene shows Cassie and Bryan booking their holiday on a laptop. The dates that they book the holiday home are between May 5th 2018 and May 12th 2018, which means the movie is set in 2018. But later in the movie, when Cassie finds the video of Bryan with the two women on his phone, the date is listed as "Sunday, May 7", and May 7th 2018 was a Monday, not a Sunday. (00:01:05 - 01:10:55)
29th Jan 2021
Factual error: When Chul-min is shot by Sergeant Hwang, it takes only a couple of seconds for him to die. The bullet hit Chul-min on the left-hand side of his upper chest and was only shot once. No human being on the planet can die from a single bullet wound to the chest that quickly. It would have taken a couple of minutes, maybe even longer, for him to die from that. (01:20:35)
29th Jan 2021
Factual error: When Jung-seok is trying to get his sister away from her son, he begins shooting at a zombie that begins charging at him, and he falls on his back. Behind him, another zombie is shown with two other zombies lying on top of him. The zombie then manages to stand himself up, with almost no struggle and this also prompts the two zombies to fly off him. This move completely defies the laws of physics. This zombie should have the strength of an average man, and the two other zombies should be of equal, or at least somewhere near, the same weight as him. He was only using his arms and back to stand himself up, so realistically, the moment of him trying to stand up should have taken a lot more strength and a bit more struggle than what was shown. (00:08:13)
6th Jul 2018
Factual error: When Kryten revives Lister with the defibrillator paddles, he places them on the clothing he is wearing. Defibrillator paddles need to be applied to bare skin for the electricity to get through. (00:27:35)
29th Jun 2018
Timeslides - S3-E5
Factual error: The newspaper detailing the bomb attack on Hitler lists the date as "Tuesday May 4 1938." May 4th, 1938 was a Wednesday. (00:09:15)
13th Jul 2017
The Seven Crystal Balls: Part 1 - S3-E3
Factual error: When Tintin and Haddock are watching the two clowns performing on stage, the clown of the left is shown stepping in a spilt puddle of water on the stage, but the water is never affected, even when he steps in it. The water just remains completely still and no water is ever shown dripping off the clown's shoe. (00:04:40)
13th Jul 2017
The Seven Crystal Balls: Part 2 - S3-E4
Factual error: When Tintin begins climbing the tree to see if the intruder is hiding, he jumps up and grabs one of the tree branches. The branch is practically unaffected by the Tintin's added weight. There is no sound heard when the branch is grabbed hold of, nor are there any vibrations made to the branch when Tintin grabs it. (00:28:55)
13th Jul 2017
The Seven Crystal Balls: Part 2 - S3-E4
Factual error: When the intruder fires at Tintin, the shot misses him, but instead hits a tree branch. The tree branch is blown off, but the tree that the branch was hanging from has no visible damage. If the bullet had hit the branch and it flew off, there would still be a stump visible from where the branch had snapped off. If the bullet hit the tree and this caused the branch to fly away, there would be a visible bullet mark on the tree. Regardless, there is no way the tree would not have any visible damage done towards it. (00:30:00)
13th Jul 2017
The Seven Crystal Balls: Part 2 - S3-E4
Factual error: The shed that the intruder fires at Tintin and Haddock from has a lock shown on the interior side of the door, but no lock shown from the exterior side of the door. (00:30:15)
