Thanks for the translation, truth, as usual (and I'm amazed to hear there's a place in SK that doesn't have Internet--isn't it the world's most wired country?).

Most of us here are pretty irked about the inaccuracies in this drama, right? I think this video sums those feelings up pretty well. This is a portion of a review of the Pearl Harbor movie, deliciously ripped apart by this reviewer from Chicago. www.youtube.com/watch?v=aEdkH9WMsYkGo right to 12:50 and that's where the rants about inaccuracy start.

Life of Kim Yushin
Kim Yushin was a descendant of Gaya royal family, but he was also mixed with Shilla blood.
Kim Yushin's ancestor King Jwaji of Gaya was married to Boksu, the daughter of Doryung of Shilla. Boksu gave birth to King Chui Hee, who married Indeok, the daughter of Jinsa of Shilla. Indeok gave birth to King Jilji, who married a Gaya woman named Bang Won. Bang Won gave birth to King Kamji, who married Sook, the daughter of Chool Chu of Shilla. Sook gave birth to King Gu Hyung, who married a Gaya woman named Gye Hwa. Gye Hwa gave birth to Kim Muryuk and Kim Mudeuk. Kim Muryuk married Ah Yang, the daughter of King Jin Heung of Shilla. Muryuk and Ah Yang gave birth to Kim Seo Hyun, the father of Kim Yushin. Kim Seo Hyun married Man Myung, the daughter of Sukheuljong(brother of King Jin Heung).
Kim Yushin became a Hwarang at 15 years old and trained in a cave by himself at 17 years old. He vowed himself to devote his life in protecting Shilla against the invasion of Goguryeo, Baekje, and Malgal. Four days after his training in the cave began, an old man asked him, "This place is a scary place filled with poisonous insects and wild beasts. What is a noble boy like you doing in this place?"
The old man was named Nanseung. Kim Yushin instantly knew that Nanseung was not an ordinary man, so he asked Nanseung to be his teacher. Nanseung also knew that Yushin was extraordinary, so he taught methods to use for righteous cause and disappeared. When Yushin returned home from the cave, he became a Pungwolju(leader of Hwarangs) at 18 years old.
However, Kim Yushin was limited in Shilla society due to his Gaya blood. He chose to get his sister married to Kim Chunchu as a result.
On 629, Kim Yushin fought under his father Kim Seo Hyun at Nangbi Fortress where Shilla killed 5,000 Goguryean soldiers. During QSD's reign, Kim Yushin conquered 7 Baekje fortresses including Ga Hye, Sung Yeol, and Dong Hwa. When Kim Yushin was returning home from this campaign, a messenger notified QSD of Baekje's invasion of Maeripo Fortress. Kim Yushin went straight to Maeripo without even seeing his family, which boosted morality of the soldiers. Baekje stood no chance against Kim Yushin's army.
On the final year of QSD's reign, Bidam and Yeom Jang started a rebellion, saying that QSD was a bad leader for building Hwang Ryong Temple while people are starving. Bidam encamped at Mt. Myung Hwal Fortress and QSD's army encamped at Wol Fortress. When a meteor fell during one night, Bidam encouraged his men by telling them the fallen meteor was a sign of the queen's loss.
Kim Yushin flew a kite with a burning scarecrow attached to it in an effort to turn the tides. He then spread a rumor about how the fallen meteor had rose up to the sky again. This decreased morality of Bidam's soldiers while it increased QSD army's soldiers.
When KCC became king on 654, Kim Yushin became the most powerful man in the court and eventually went on to become the Prime Minister on 660. Kim Yushin also defeated Gyebaek on the same year and conquered Sabi Fortress to demolish Baekje. He also demolished the Baekje Revival Movement and played a big role in demolition of Goguryeo on 668.
Kim Yushin used a Shillan prisoner in Baekje named Jo Miap to appease Baekje's Left Minister Imja. Yushin appeased Imja by telling him that he wishes to go under Imja's wing in case Shilla loses to Baekje and that he would do the same for Imja in case Baekje loses to Shilla. Jo Miap was able to travel back and forth between Baekje and Shilla and notify Kim Yushin about Baekje's internal affairs and secrets as a result, which contributed to Baekje's demise.
On July of 673, Kim Yushin passed away at the age of 79. He had 3 wives, numerous concubines, and many children. Kim Yushin gave birth to Sam Gwang, Wonsool, Won Jeong, Jang Yi, and Won Mang from his 3 wives and Goon Seung from a concubine. He also had 4 daughters.
King Heung Deok later elevated Kim Yushin to a status of a king and gave him the title King Heung Moo.

Fantastic, truth--thanks so much for this one. Going to shamelessly copy-and-paste it into the QSD board if you don't mind, so it gets recorded there as well.
Some very good material there that QSD should have included. His having a teacher, it would have added a whole lot to bring him in for a bit--much more satisfying then just having him show up and whack rocks. And the part about his sister marrying Chunchu, that would have been a great way to explain him deciding to support Deokman, rather than just EEK Mishil scares me!
P.S. sageuk, wow, it's like I have a twin! Thanks for digging up that rant--great stuff. (Should warn people it's not exactly G-rated.) Never saw the Pearl Harbor movie...but I know how the guy feels.

Wow, that guy is sooooo mad--and with good reason. I actually think a better place to start is a couple minutes earlier, where he talks about the fact that we don't even spend the beginning of the film getting to know the people who were killed there. And it goes on. Truly well thought out, although it looks off the cuff.

Go figure Pearl Harbor was a big hit in Japan ,one thing i always give the Japanese credit for is they will watch a film even if they are depicted as the bad guys . As to their taste !!!well PH sucked ,maybe they saw something in it that we missed ,or put it down to Affleck he is very popular there .

Choi Jae Sung will be playing the role of Baekje general Gyebaek. Son Yeo Eun will be playing Queen Jindeok(thank god. I was scared that the evil queen might come back to become Jindeok)

So ironic. First this guy was cast as Yushin, now he's playing a general defeated by Yushin. Hopefully he doesn't break a leg again.
