〈Injigu〉(1987) lived in Korea for a long time under the title 〈Injigu〉. This all started when the journalist who first introduced the film mistook the Chinese characters and wrote 〈Injigu〉; afterward, other outlets copied it as well. Even action star Donnie Yen (甄子丹) went through something similar.
