Walther PPK
The Walther PPK is used by KCIA Director Kim Jae-kyu (Yoon-Sik Baek) when he first tries to kill President Park Chung-hee. As depicted, the pistol did jam at one point before the president was fatally killed.

Director Kim brandishes his PPK, starting the events that led to President Park's death.
Clearing a jam. This actually happened, mind you.
Revolvers
Ruger GP100
The Ruger GP100 is seen with KCIA Agent Ju (Suk-kyu Han) and Director Kim. This is incorrect since the revolver did not see production until the mid-1980s.

Smith & Wesson Model 36
The Smith & Wesson Model 36 is used by KCIA agents, incluing Agent Min (Eung-soo Kim), recruited by Agent Ju to assassinate President Park and his PSS detail. The revolver was actually involved when the the president was assassinated.

Assault Rifles
M16A1
The M16A1 is seen with and with no bayonet by the South Korean Army and the KCIA. These are likely Daewoo-made since Seoul was allowed to make them under license by Colt.
