	+ Strangely enough, her first name is also from Dorothy Gale, the protagonist of The Wizard of Oz. However, considering the special episodes. This may be a coincidence despite the Oz inspiration of the webtoon.
* In her original design, she was supposed to be a man named "Albert Croucher." He would had been the father of Navil. The reason for the change was that the author thought that an old lady with a ph.d would be more interesting.
* In her pendant that holds a picture of her son, to the left says, "Now We are all Sons of bitches." This is quote reference from "Kenneth Bainbridge." Who said it to Robert Oppenheimer during the nuclear weapon testing.
* There is speculation from Korean readers that she may be the wife of Fredrich Bismarck and Briant is their son. This was revealed to be false in season 3.
* Her motto "He Who Doesn't Work Doesn't Eat," is likely a Bible Quote from "2 Thessalonians 3:10."
