In the poster, the two heroes are dressed in the armor of the two countries in 16th-century fashion.
Choi plays the legendary Korean admiral Yi Sun-shin, who fends off some 300 battleships with only 13. Ryu plays Gurujima, the Japanese admiral of the Hideyoshi shogunate, who leads the Japanese invasion of Korea.
