However, Niko later killed Kim on orders from Jon Gravelli.

The gang shares their Alderney City turf with the Spanish Lords, however they have been known to shoot each other.
Trivia
- In New York City, Koreans have territory in a small Koreatown in Midtown, Manhattan; Woodside, Queens and largest community in northeastern Flushing, Queens. There is no Korean presence in Bronx but territory was given to Koreans based in Bronx in Grand Theft Auto: Chinatown Wars due to the fact that the large Flushing, Queens Korean territory is not displayed on the Liberty City map. However, there is a small Koreatown in Alderney.
- Because of the above fact, the gang may also incorporate South Korean and Korean American members.
- The Wonsu Nodong, like Murder, Inc. of La Cosa Nostra, are a subsect of the Midtown Gangsters.
- The Midtown Gangsters are possibly based on jopok (Korean:ģ”°ķ, short for "jojikpokryeokbae, Korean:ģ”°ģ§ķė „ė°°)", means "organized crime" in English) or kkgangpae (Korean:ź¹”ķØ), Korean mobsters or street thugs. However, these terms are used in South Korea, while the Midtown Gangsters are said to have originated from North Korea.
