Additional Info.
"Rogue: The Sound of Swords is a drama set in the 1920s, both in terms of time and in the Northern Gando region, with many parallels to actual historical events of that era. The events depicted in the drama closely resemble real historical incidents in the Gando region in the 1920s, such as the 'Theft of 150,000 Won,' the 'Gando Massacre,' the 'Hunchun Incident,' the 'Mitsuya Agreement,' and the 'Struggle Against the Construction of the Gilho Railroad.'
However, this should not be understood as a strictly historical portrayal, but rather as a drama that uses these historical events as dramatic elements."
