By the summer of 1592, Korean admiral Yi Sun-Sin (Park Hae-Il) had already amassed several improbable naval victories against an invading Japanese fleet with superior numbers and armaments. The wounded commander would rack up another at Hansan Island, as he lured the forces of Wakisaka Yasuharu (Byun Yo-Han) into an engagement that would cost Japan 100 ships. Riveting battle saga also stars Kim Sung-Kyun, Ahn Sung-Ki, Kim Hyang-Gi. 130 min. Widescreen; Soundtracks; Korean, English; Subtitles: English. In Korean with English subtitles. "a captivating blend of epic battle sequences, military strategy, and human decision" --The Silver Screen Analysis "rousing naval action" --In Review Online "these monstrous ships are worth the wait, roaring through the water in impressive sequences" --The New York Times Review: I was staggered at this historical account. - This is a story about a sea battle between Japan and Korea around 1595. I was amazed at the battleships used in this war. On some of them, there were 4 decks with cannon ports every 20 feet. They were also designed for ramming other ships and repelling boarders. Some of them were ironclads. Review: Another Amazing bit of Korean history - Don't bother waiting to watch this one before getting The Adimiral, they are both great and go together very well, and Han San chronologically comes first. Both have fantastic acting and incredibly high production values.

I was staggered at this historical account.
This is a story about a sea battle between Japan and Korea around 1595. I was amazed at the battleships used in this war. On some of them, there were 4 decks with cannon ports every 20 feet. They were also designed for ramming other ships and repelling boarders. Some of them were ironclads.

Another Amazing bit of Korean history
Don't bother waiting to watch this one before getting The Adimiral, they are both great and go together very well, and Han San chronologically comes first. Both have fantastic acting and incredibly high production values.

Some corny characters and subplots
As a film, Hansan: Rising Dragon feels disappointingly corny at times. That is a pity because I genuinely enjoyed both The Admiral: Roaring Currents and Noryang: Deadly Sea. The central problem with Hansan is the sheer number of poorly written subplots and scenes. The Japanese turncoat who defects because he believes the war is a โbattle of the righteous against the unrighteousโ feels implausibly sentimental. The Korean female spy seems unnecessary, while Admiral Won is portrayed as such a reflexively incompetent commander that he borders on caricature. Yi himself and the Battle of Hansan Island are portrayed competently enough, but the weakness of the surrounding cast and subplots is real.
