In one interview, director Ryu Seung-wan joked that he made this film specifically to dramatically cut up the flag of the Imperial Japanese Army (1870–1945) on camera.
The director's cut of the film has a runtime of 151 minutes.
The film was criticized by right-wing Japanese media. In particular, the Sankei Shimbun newspaper accused the filmmakers of distorting historical truth.
The film's characters mention the company they work for several times, but its name is never spoken. In reality, it refers to Mitsubishi Corporation, which owned Hashima Island until 2002.
The characters and events depicted in the film are fictional, although between 1943 and 1945, Chinese and Korean laborers were indeed brought to Hashima Island for forced labor in underwater coal mines.
