The recorded principal-photography period is December 5, 2023 to May 30, 2024. The film is listed at approximately 117 minutes, with a 1.85:1 aspect ratio and a Korean age rating of 15 and older. These are film production details, not facts about the novel's world.
The adaptation rights announcement described plans for five films. That production ambition should not be confused with five completed or released adaptations.
Added: ## Development chronology
Added: The saved reference traces the adaptation announcement to September 2019, when Munpia reported the rights agreement with Realies Pictures. In March 2021, Smilegate and Realies Pictures announced a joint venture for the project; a report naming Kim Byung-woo as director followed that May. These stages precede the later casting and principal photography.
Added: Casting reports appeared through 2023, followed by filming that December. Lotte released photographs from the script reading in January 2024. Production completion was publicly discussed in late May 2024, with the theatrical release following in July 2025. The sequence distinguishes development announcements, filming and release rather than counting them as separate adaptations.

Added: ## Reading the reception record
Added: The supplied film article collects criticism and praise about adaptation choices, action, pacing and the challenge of visualizing the novel. Those are attributed critical positions, not a single measured verdict shared by every reader or viewer. The production facts above can be documented separately from whether a reviewer considers a particular change successful.
