* CallBack: One of the other South Korean soldiers in Soo-hyeok's unit talks about what a badass he is, and says how one time when he was out on patrol in the DMZ he stepped on a land mine but disarmed it himself. A later flashback reveals that in fact it was the two North Koreans, Kyeong-pil and Woo-jin, who found him with his foot on the mine and saved him.

** Early in the film, a tourist on the southern side of the JSA loses a hat in the wind, which blows over to the northern side. Kyeong-pil hands the hat back, and the sound of other tourists snapping photos is heard on the soundtrack. The very last shot of the film repeats that scene, but shows the photo the tourist snapped, which as it turns out included all four of the main characters.
