Trivia[]
- This is the only Famicom title entirely in Korean. Since Hangul is an agglutinative language with thousands of possibilities and this game being text heavy, the developpers had to find a way to generate the text graphics on the fly rather than storing all existing combinations in the game CHR data.
- This is Golden Bell only title, they had planned a Korean RPG after that but it was likely cancelled early since no photos of it have ever surfaced in magazines[2].
