On 12 August, 1592 [Gregorian Calendar] they rendezvoused with Won Gyun at Noryang, bringing their total fleet strength to 56 warships.
Yi Sun-sin sent a small detachment forward to lure the Japanese fleet, and they took the bait, following them into open waters off Hansan Island.
The Korean fleet assumed a U-shaped crane formation with large warships in the center and lighter ships on its wings.
