Yi Hyong-sok, vol. 2, 1721, identifies the seventeen camps as follows: two at Sosaengpo (Kato Kiyomasa and others); Ilgwangpo (Ito Yuhei, Shimazu Tadatoyo and others); Kijang (Kuroda Nagamasa); Tongnae (Kikkawa Hiroie); two at Pusan (Mori Terumoto); two at Kimhae (Nabeshima Naoshige); Kadok Island (Kobayakawa Takakage, Tachibana Munetora and others); Angolpo (Wakizaka Yasuharu); three at Ungchon (Konishi Yukinaga, So Yoshitoshi, Matsuura Shigenobu and others); and three on Koje Island (Shimazu Yoshihiro and others). According to
Sonjo sujong sillok
, vol. 4, 20–21 (5/Sonjo 26; June 1593), there were only sixteen camps.

Cho Chung-hwa,

, 69-71. Among the candidates rumored to have been Yodogimi’s lover were Hideyoshi intimate Ono Harunaga, the actor Nagoya Sansu, and Ishida Mitsunari. Ishida can be ruled out, for he was in Korea when Yodogimi conceived in late November or early December 1592. Cho Chung-hwa suggests that the rumors concerning Ishida may have been started by Kato Kiyomasa and Fukushima Masanori in order to damage his reputation.

After his escape from Nagoya and return to Korea in September of 1593, Che Man-chun was interrogated by Yi Sun-sin, and his report forwarded to the Korean court at Hwangju (Dispatch of 8/Wanli 21 [Aug. 1593], Yi Sun-sin,

[481]
According to Choi Hyo-sik, there were some 8,000 Korean defenders present at the Second Battle of Chinju: a local garrison of 2,400, plus 3,000 reinforcements under Kim Chon-il, Hwang Jin, and Choi Kyong-hoe, plus units of uibyong and monk-soldiers. (
Imjin waeran-gi Yongnam uibyong yongu
[Seoul: Kukhakjaryowon, 2003], 92-93). According to Yi Hyong-sok, vol. 1, 723, reinforcements under Kim, Hwang, and Choi totaled only 1,800.
[482]
This figure of 93,000, which is the one commonly quoted in accounts of the battle, is taken from Japanese sources, and may be too high. According to
Sonjo sujong sillok
, vol. 4, 24 (6/Sonjo 26; July 1593), the attacking Japanese army totaled only 30,000. Che Man-chun, a Korean naval officer captured by the Japanese and pressed into service as a clerk under Hideyoshi at Nagoya, also stated that 30,000 Japanese troops were present at the Second Battle of Chinju (Dispatch of 8/Wanli 21 (Aug. 1593), Yi Sun-sin,

In his dealings with the Chinese, Naito Joan thus referred to himself as “Konishi Joan.” Similarly, in their initial meetings with Shen Weijing in the fall of 1592, Konishi Yukinaga and So Yoshitoshi introduced themselves as “Toyotomi Yukinaga” and “Toyotomi Yoshitoshi.”
