We're contacting the families of those we've identified
We'll call you soon
Who received the file for LEE Jin-seok, number B-38?
LEE Jin-seok? I did, Why?
I checked the list of remains and the photos
He's not on K.I.A. or M.I.A. list
Not even on the survivors' list?
LEE Jin-seok...
Identity search for participating soldier
the list of participants...
Still alive?
Grandpa!
The Army Headquarters is on the phone!
hello?
I'm with the Korean War excavation team
I'm calling to confirm some information
Are you LEE Jin-seok who fought at the battle of Dumillyong?
That's right
We've identified some remains as LEE Jin-seok's
Oh... you did?
But I am LEE Jin-seok
Is there any chance... it is LEE Jin-tae?
No, it's definitely LEE Jin-seok
I'm sorry to have bothered you, sir
It's probably someone with the same name
What did they say? Was it about your brother?
I thought it would be since
it was a call from the army
Grandpa, can I help with the garden?
Could you drive for me?
I can drive him
Don't worry, Mom
The site is on a mountain and you aren't well
I'll call her later
You got sick after your trip to China to look for your brother
Yes
Why don't you go start the car
- Yeah - Make sure you've got an ID
It's a restricted area
Don't worry I've got enough IDs
OK then
Are you going to wear your sneakers?
I'll shine shoes instead
Jong-Ro, Seoul 1950
Shoe shine!
The middle ones are new from Italy
They're beautiful
It's a work of an art
The heels are high and the stitching is superb
Well... I like low heels better They look more comfortable
- Really? - But
I bet you can make so much better than those
It'll take a few more years
I'll be so proud when you make shoes at a shop like this someday
- What did you buy this for? - You wanted to have one
You look great!
Thanks, Jin-tae
Ice cream!
- Hey, ice cream! - Yeah!
- Give me a real cold one - Why don't you buy two?
- Just one is enough - OK
Here's one, nice and cold
Take it
- You've already spent too much - Take it!
- Yours? - I don't want my teeth to rot
- How much is it? - It's 2 won
- Thank you - Have a nice day!
- Take a bite first - No way!
- Come on, it's melting! - You eat it
Jin-tae! The tram!
Shoe shine
Where are you going?
We have to go home!
I've finished the math homework
I'll teach you something new
You have to teach me tomorrow!
Mom!
You haven't finished yet?
What does it look like to you? We're busy!
- Jin-seok's here, too - Hi, Young-Shin!
Stop that I'll put some on a plate
It's okay, Young-Shin
I told you not to do that
Come here
- Come on, I'm not a child - Come here
Thank you!
See you next time!
Where did you get this barley?
I got it for signing up for some kind of National Correction League
- National Correction League? - I think barley
for my name is a good deal
I wish mother had done it, too
Nothing's ever free
I could kill for free food
Hurry up and close the shop Dad's waiting!
Dad, Jin-seok scored the top for his last exam
Isn't that a good job?
He'll make your dream come true
Please help him enter the best university next year
And please keep him healthy
He was very sick last spring
No, but I'm fine now
Young-shin, Mom says to come in!
Remember her, dad?
Jin-tae is going to marry her this fall
Mom's worried about such a nice girl marrying such a rough boy
It'd have made you so proud...
Mom, the kids must be hungry
Jin-seok, let's clear the table
Why don't you go help mom
Open the pot!
Again!
Here, use this from now on
I made it from my skirt
Don't lose it
What did you like the most?
The meat!
- I liked the cookies - I liked the fruit!
Can we go swimming?
No, it's too late We have to go home and sleep
But tomorrow is Sunday We have no school...
It's too hot to go to bed
- No... - Please, please...
You look really happy
I wish everyday were like this No more, no less
I know, Jin-tae is a little rough but has a warm heart...
Don't worry. It's not cold
Shall I show you?
Jin-tae, I don't want to do it!
Why are you changing the heels? The high ones look great!
They look great! Are you gonna sell them?
You wanna buy them?
If the price is right I just might
You'll never have enough money to buy those shoes!
Hey, why is this pronunciation different form the spelling?
Didn't I tell you not to ask me about spellings?
You don't know the second grade's stuff?
Shut up and go get more shoes
Okay, I was going to
Hi, you're gonna teach me math today, right?
- Why aren't you at the library? - You haven't heard?
A war has broken out
Any soldiers on leave are to report to duty right away
This morning the armed forces of North Korea attacked South Korea
But our brave soldiers are fighting courageously and pushing them back
Citizens should not be deceived by the groundless propaganda of the north
Informing you once again
at the 38th parallel...
What are all these? Are we moving?
We have to carry all these
Only food and clothes I told you!
Don't worry I won't ask you to carry
Uncle's house is way too far
- Put that stuff back - No, I'll carry them
We can't carry all these!
I'll carry them! I'll carry them all!
Don't be stupid!
I told you I will!
We'll be back soon I told you
How do you know that?
No one knows what will happen!
The shop is just starting to do well
Somebody will take it while we're gone
What about the KIMchi pots buried in the yard?
And the vegetables I planted in spring?
They all will be fine until we get back
What if you're drafted?
Only if they need their boots shined
We have to hurry
The North's solders are getting close
And the streets are packed with refugees
Hurry up, Young-ja
Let's go
Mother!
Mom says we must stay together all the time
- Put Young-min on here - Young-min
Hold on tight
We won't be long, okay?
Jin-seok, come on!
Jin-seok!
Hold hands tight!
Young-ja!
Dae-gu, July 1950

Who's going to carry on the family name?
Is the country going to?
Those bastards
Forget the will!

You never know when
the next meal will come
Eat this shit
Just call me Uncle Yang
He's the eldest in our platoon
He's a self-proclaimed fortuneteller but he's never right
Welcome
Don't ever take your helmet off
Many get their heads blown off while sleeping
I'm Sergeant LEEM
I hate anything red especially the reds!
I am Tae-soo, I escaped from North Korea

That's the spirit we need
You have to give to your country
before asking for something
Just for your information
it's been done before
There, a father and son were in the same unit
who could send his son home
Wanna know how?
Wills are for dying people
You've got to be strong
I wish all this would just be a dream
I want to wake up in my room
I'd tell you about this over breakfast
I would tell you that I had a strange dream
Then I would go to school
and you and mom would go to work
Don't worry We will be just fine
Urgent call from the battalion bunker, sir!

- Wake them up! - Yes, sir!
Everybody, wake up! Everybody up! Up!
Area 721 and
area 734 have
fallen into the enemy's hands
Additionally, our supply route has been cut off
This means we're isolated
Remove all the rocks
They're shrapnel waiting to happen

LEE Jin-tae

One more minute he would have died
Got it?
Why the hell did you go for that mission?
Tell me
You weren't on the list but you volunteered for it
Why is that?
I don't understand why you did that
Just forget it
What if it was you laying there
with your guts open!
Promise me you won't do that again
Promise!
Alright
All I need is just water
Why the hell are they playing that music?
They know we're isolated
They're gonna drive us crazy
Remember the ice cream?
It was so good
Back home, you can eat it till your teeth go numb
I wonder what mom
and Young-shin are doing...
I bet... Mom is really worried about us
Uncle would be taking good care of them
I miss them all
Young-guk, Young-ja Young-min...
I should've...
set the dog free

Are you gonna make us go through hell?
You want to give up Nak-dong River?
Seung-chul!
Seung-chul Put it down
Seung-chul
Why couldn't you wait just a little longer?
Dismiss
- Go back to the trench - Shit!
We're going to die here like dogs?
Starve to death or shot to death
Who says we're gonna die?
They haven't given us food or water for days!
We'll die an honorable death
Soldiers are human, too!
What's the honor when starving to death?
- Shut up! - You crazy bastard
You'd go to them for a piece of bread
It's better than starving to death
Okay then, go on!
Go join the commies I'll kill you before you get there
Surrendering is better than
starving to death like animals!
Who gives a shit who wins!
Is that ideology important enough
to kill each other over?
You finished?
This is totally different from
our fight against Japan!
You damn communist!
Fuck, give back your badge! you crazy fuck!
Stop it, son of a bitch
- Let go, let go! - You son of a bitch!
Stop it, son of a bitch
Okay, let's die, you bastard today, okay?
We're gonna die anyway
- Die, fucking bastard! - Take it easy!
The communists slaughtered
- his entire family - I didn't do it!
This ain't circus! Go back to the bunker!
This is it?
Let's attack them
We're so weak we can
- barely lift our guns - One more day
and we'll be eating corpses
Or surrender to the commies
They wouldn't expect us to attack them
We've got nothing to lose haven't we?
Let's go in and wipe them out
I will fight!
I will, too!
I will follow too
- I will go too - I will go along
- I will go - Hey, count me in
- I'll go too - Me too
One mistake can
- kill us all - Let's go and kill 'em all!
Sir!
I don't understand
why I'm out of the mission
You're not qualified
I am! Let me join them!
- I have to be with my brother - It's too late
I'm begging you, I want to fight with others
Your brother begged me to sit you out
and now you wanna go?
What are you risking your life for?
- You need a medal, too? - What medal, sir?
Attack!
Fucking bastard!
Fuck, kill 'em all!
Die all of you... die!
Please... don't kill me
I'm only 15
I just got drafted
Please don't kill me
Please...
Die...
Die!
Watch out! They are coming from side!
Jin-tae, where are you going?
Come back, Jin-tae!
Jin-tae!
I said come back!
Jin-tae!
Son of a bitch!
If they take this bunker
we are finished, Got it?
Yes, sir!
You fucking babies
How dare you betray us like that?
Hurry up!
You are lucky to be alive
Jin... tae!
Jin-tae!
- Jin-tae! - Jin-seok!
Are you okay?
Good
Let's go get some water
Jin-tae...
Why do you volunteer for
every single risky mission?
For a Medal...
To send me home?
What the hell are you doing?
You think you're bulletproof?
Every second I see someone killed!
Are you mad?
Suppose you get the medal!
I'd be happy to go home with leaving you dead?
How could I look at mom and Young-shin?
You're still young and ill
But I'm a soldier now
Don't ask them to sit me out again
You and I should be together
We live and die together
Ifyou do this again I wont' forgive you
Don't get me wrong
Already 15 dead from our unit alone
but no one knows who's gonna die next...
If I can live staying behind
I will stay behind
- Please understand me - No way!
You want me to watch you die?
I won't die, until I get you back home safely
- Let's go - Jin-tae!
You know
I want both of us to live
But if only one gets to go
I want it to be you
You alright?
You all did a great job!
Besides our victory
there is one more good news!
The U.S marines made
a successful landing at Incheon
We'll push in as they make
the 2nd attack into Incheon
Your bravery exemplifies
the men of this battalion
Raise this flag on Mt. Baekdu by the Chinese border
Yes, sir!
Seoul, September 1950 Mr LEE, Could you look at the camera when you are taking the picture?
Mr LEE, Could you look at the camera when you are taking the picture?
Why were two brothers from the same family in the same battle?
We had no other choice but to volunteer the army
in order to protect our country
from danger
We heard you did a great job at Nak-dong river
Any other motivation for fighting so bravely?
My only motivation as a soldier
is to fight to prevent
my family from suffering under
the oppression of the communists!
Jin-tae!
I'm going to send a letter home
Tell me what you wanna write
We have to send it with a local
Do I have to do it now?
- Sergeant LEE - Yeah!
Let's do it later I have to go to the reception
We've got to ask one of the people on the street!
- Sergeant LEE - Yeah!
You write something for me See you later!
Jin-tae!
What is this? Are you kidding me?
Give me some eggs!
Give me the eggs
Behave yourself!
Come on YANG!
Come on, an egg!
Is there anyone from in Manri-dong?
Who lives in Manri-dong?
I don't remember the last time I ate like this!
Nothing but vegetables!
Where's my egg?
So, do you like it?
You know, Jin-tae is
really going to be on TV?
You saw him
with the American officers
and the cameras flashing
That's Sergeant LEE as of today
And he's squad leader of the 1 st
He was talking well 'For the families oppressed by the reds... '
A hero is born
You envy him?
Then kill the communists!
He sure does have a face for TV
My gosh, this guy doesn't know anything
What do you know about photogenic?
That kind of face is good for nothing practical
He's nothing compared to this
Damn, what a knock out!
How did you get a wife like this!
I told you to look at my son, not my wife
I saw you looking at her breasts!
Give it to me
My son'll be a General like MacArthur someday
I also have a wife in the North
- MacArthur! - When'll this
damn war be over?
I thought it'd last only a week
When you go home you go back to school
It'll be soon, since the U.S has joined
Yeah, right
Your home is near here isn't it?
If your mom's back in Seoul she'll be searching for you two
Just one each!
- Congratulations - Thank you
Jin-seok!
You know what this is?
This is the chocolate
you wanted so much
Just tell me if you want more
They will
give me more any time I tell them
Yes, I drank a little
Don't worry
You'll be home soon
It's only a matter of days before I put this flag on Mt. Baekdu
You should be sleeping
It will get rough from tomorrow
- Did you send the letter? - I asked someone
I don't think they're back in Seoul
It's getting cold at night
You should go inside
You felt like a stranger today
I kept worrying
I've been thinking about things
There's one thing I want you to do
Please forget about the medal
It's not worth it
You're the only brother I have...
And we have to go back alive
You know, right?
I was so scared
when dad died and
mom couldn't speak anymore
But you helped me get through it all
Jin-tae
The day after tomorrow
You were supposed to get married to Young-shin
I hope you think about Young-shin
And all our family not only me
Pyongyang, North Korea October 1950
3rd unit, block off the back road
He surely didn't get out yet
2nd unit, 2nd unit!
You can't let him go!
You must get him alive, got it?
The commies are hitting back hard!
Where's their captain?
Shit, sons of bitches!
- Cover me - What?
Sergeant LEE!
Jin-tae!
A few more up there!
I saw them!
- Cover me - Too dangerous!
- My brother's in danger - Sit down!
Get down
It's dangerous!
Come with me
Yong-man and KIM come with me!
- What's going on? - The captain is escaping
This isn't your business
The 3rd platoon is here for that!
The 3rd is waiting on the way out!
This is an order!
- Don't go - Come on!
Sergeant LEE!

GO Yong-man
To position, salute
Back to position
We'll continue over to Aprok River
near the Chinese border
I hope every one of you get there safe and alive
Let's leave
What's wrong?
The medal... who are you really doing this for?
You love being a hero don't you?
Promotions, parties interviews...
Who knows? You might even be battalion commander, right?
Keep this in mind
Yong-man's son, Min-seok
will grow up without a father
And bear a grudge against you forever
- Stop it - If you'd listened to me back there!
He wouldn't be dead!
Do you know why he died?
Do you know what you were doing
while he was dying?
What good is the medal when people are dying for it!
Not another word
What the...
This is Seagull One

slaughtered all the villagers

No, they were dead when we came
One more lie, you're dead, got it?
You killed them?
- Don't shoot! - Shut up!
Don't lie to me!
Oh, please!
Yong-seok!
Jin-seok!
- What happened? - Jin-seok!
I was forced to join the North Korean army or be killed
Now it's okay don't cry
Drink this
Should I report?
Jin-tae!
Report that all the enemies were killed in battle
- What are you talking about? - They'll be excess baggage
This is Yong-seok! He was like your own brother!
All I see now is a communist
I am Yong-seok your friend!
I know shoeshine boy Yong-seok but that's not you
PFC LEE, move away!
We're not communists
He was forced to come here!
You step back!
- Did you kill them? - No!
we didn't! Really!
He says he didn't!
- I don't believe a commie - They are animals!
- Get out of the way! - Jin-seok!
- Come out! - Let go!
Don't kill me! Jin-tae
Please don't kill me Jin-tae... Jin-tae
Get your hands off!
Kneel down!
- You dirty pig! - Don't kill me
Go ahead
and I'll report that you kill
unarmed soldiers
We're no better than the commies killing civilians!
You are all crazy! They're hostages!
You saw what they did!
They're animals!
If we kill them we are animals, too
It was them who started the war!
We're the same No better, no worse!
Okay, kill them Shoot!
What are you waiting for? Shoot!
Shoot, shoot! Go on and shoot!
Today's your lucky day!
Get up! go, you bastards
Hye-San-Jin, far northern Korea November 1950
Yong-seok
Jin-seok!
Take it
Boys! Have some
- Are you okay? - I feel fine
Take your time
I filed a report about you with the regimental office
Thanks a lot
Jin-tae is... not who he was
He's so changed
Just before I left, I met your mom and Young-shin
Really?
How are they? When did they come back home?
Just after you were drafted
She wanted to be home
in case you came back
She asked people about you
Whenever she saw me she cried
I reminded her of you two
And the noodle stand?
Frankly... she isn't well
What's wrong?
Is it serious?
I don't know exactly...
but she couldn't move well
Young-shin was having a hard
time, caring for everyone
The commies wouldn't let her run the stand
She attends rallies all day long
It's the only way to get food
Don't worry, though
Things may be getting better
I miss the noodles
your mom cooks
The loser doesn't eat for two days!
Do it right, bastards!
- Won't you do it right? - Kill him! kill him!
Do it right, bastards!
2 days aren't bad enough? You want 5?
You ain't hungry?
You crazy bastard do it right!
You see now?
Like this! Like this!
Think of him as South Korean pig
Like this!
Fight until one gets knocked out
If not, I'll kill both of you
You got it?
You got it!
Who's going to be the damn South Korean?
You do it!
You don't need to
You don't have to It's you and me now
- What the hell are you doing? - Isn't this a game?
Fight, or you'll die of starvation
- Stop it! - Come on
Come on, son of a bitch!
Come on!
There you go that's the way
We're not done yet!
We fight until one of us can't get up!
We fight until the end!
- You are killing him - Let go!
Anyone tries to stop me I'll kill you, too!
Get up, or you'll starve to death!
Come on! Fight or you're dead
I said, fight, you pig!
Bring it on! Bastard!
Many of our brave soldiers
sacrificed their lives for their country
And the long awaited victory
Is very close
- Just stay still! - It hurts!
I can't help it
When the hell can we go home?
And General MacArthur has ordered
UN forces to advance to the north
The victory is ours
You all did a great job
Reunification is right before us...
Victory!
2nd battalion! What's going on over there?
We're going home! home!
Ok, let's kick some ass!
It looks like the war
may be over soon
I wouldn't be so sure I heard Chinese will back the north
That's just commie propaganda
Uncle Yang what do you think?
The Sunspot and Great Bear
are losing energy now and...
We will be home before the New Year
You really sure this time?
What the hell!
Okay, I believe you
Sergeant LEE
Congratulations!
He'll get the Medal of Honor!
I expected it you would get it
You got it for catching the captain alive
The commander is really pleased
- What is that medal of honor? - You idiot!
Any time 'honor' is in the medal's name, it's good
Tomorrow the commander will
award it himself tomorrow
Let's give him a big hand!
Sergeant LEE, now you can be a soldier forever
Jin-seok!
Let's talk
Make it short I'm on duty
You can go home soon
Then go back to school right away
You missed a lot
You're the one that needs
to go home You're sick
I'm not going home
You'll do what I say
- I don't want anything from you - Listen to me
What's wrong with you?
I worked my ass off for that medal!
This is a great chance for us!
For you, not for me
Have you thought about what the medal means?
I don't care
I needed one to send you home
That medal costs Yong-man's life!
I won't go
You have to go to college!
What good is college now?
I hate everything you stand for
Don't tell me what to do
Do you really mean that?
I will make my own decisions
Don't tell me what to do
You really want either of us to die?
Then, you go home instead!
What did I risk my life for?
I didn't ask you to!
I want... you to go home alive
I also want to go home y'know
But you are our family's...
dream and hope!
I never regretted giving up school
and shining shoes for you
Mom happily broke her back for you
Do you know our sacrifices?
I know all
Why am I the only one you think about?
If you think about Young-shin and
Yong-man, you couldn't have done it
I don't care what you think as long as you can go home
The command post will leave first
Take the classified documents and burn the others
Yes, sir!

Young-shin!
Young-shin...
Young-shin!
Why did you question her?
You know you killed her

You killed her you murderer...
You shot members of the Anti-communist Federation?
The Medal of honor doesn't give you the right to shoot anyone
How can we fight this war with screw ups like you?
What happen to contact with the headquarters?
I'm still trying, sir
How can we hold out for 72 hours with those losers!
Send my brother home!
My former commander promised to
What kind of bullshit is this?
You earn a damn medal and your brother is discharged?
You only have to report it
I don't believe this!
I don't give a shit what he promised you!
You think this is a business deal or something?
He started it
How dare you talk back?
Think of what you've done!
Lock him up!
What a waste of Medals!
Urgent message from the 1 st company!
Put him in the cell!
I don't give a shit about the order. Just retreat!
I'll take responsibility All companies, retreat!
God damn!
- Open the cell - You're crazy!
Give the order!
Those commies will kill you first
I only want my brother out
Not until we finish examining your heads first
Give the order, Now!
One more thing... the hostages...
Burn them!

Jin-seok...
Let go, you bastards I'm the chief
Military Hospital, Tae-Jeon South Korea, July 1951
Jin-seok!
You look well
Thanks, You saved my life
I thought I was dead in that cell
I did too when you got shot as we were coming out
Someone up there likes you
- When do you get out of here? - Next week
How nice to be discharged!
I bet your mom needs your help
This damn war should be over
The battle around the 38th parallel is still bloody
Everyday so many lives are lost but we can't take any ground
I bought them on my way
Thank you again
And... your brother sent...
This letter home... but it was returned to the camp
You keep this
I doubt he retreated then
I've searched everywhere, but...
I don't want to know
- I don't care - PFC Lee Jin-seok!
You're wanted in the counseling room
Thank you
Our decorated hero turned into a communist
It's a serious problem for us and a good propaganda tool for them
At first we didn't believe it
But his fiancee was executed as a communist
That must have affected him
He doesn't know what communism or democracy is
Then how come he turned into a communist!
He wouldn't have done this If he thought of his family
I suppose there must be a reason
You, too are a suspect, unless you give us a good explanation
I don't care about Jin-tae
The Jin-tae I knew was just an innocent shoeshine boy...
who loved his family especially his brother
The one who's got the medal and leads 'Flag unit'...
He is not my brother
What happened to Jin-tae?
I was questioned, too
You had lunch?
How can you eat right now?
Unthinkable!
We expected him to become a captive, but
how can he become a communist?
After seeing his fiancee shot to death and then...
He must have thought that you were killed in the fire
He loved you so much
I don't care about him
He's crazy about medals
they must have offered him a good post!
Maybe the damn commies
Offered him a better post!
You see?
Dear Mother I miss you every day
Please stay well until we get back
And don't worry about Jin-seok I will definitely keep Jin-seok safe
War is tough but Jin-seok is doing fine, don't worry
Please say hello to Young-shin
When I'm back home
I'll make you happier I promise
Be careful in this cold weather
It's very cold
Take care of yourself, mom
All these patients came from
the battle near the 38th parallel
Your are crazy to go back there
How can you be sure that you'll even find him?
You'll be discharged in a week Think about your mom!
Please listen to me, Jin-seok!
See you soon
You've to take care of Young-shin's brother and sisters!
Jin-seok! PFC LEE Jin-seok!
Take care, you bastard!
We attack up the middle of hills 931 and 851 dividing them
Then battalions 1 and 2 flank the hills from both directions
As I said before in this strategy
We have to take out
'Flag unit' at all costs!
Don't forget we've moved the operation up 1 day
A question?
When will PFC Lee join the mission?
He'll sit this one out
Since the Americans moved the attack up 24 hours
there's no time
He'll speak over the microphone
- Sir! - What is it?
I'm LEE Jin-tae's brother
It's an honor to meet the brother of the traitor!
Unless he sees me, he won't believe it's me
I have to go
We start the attack in an hour
There's not enough time
If he sees I am alive he'll come back for sure!
- Please let me go - Out of the question!
Sir, please!
Answer me one question
Is this for your country or your brother?
Just read the script over the speaker
40 minutes to go!
No enemy movements detected, sir!
F-86 Sabres are standing

- I'm begging you! - What are you here for!
- Oh, please! - Speak up!
- I'm begging you - Sir!
We've got an order to bring him to the security unit

Dearfellow North Korean citizens despite months of struggle

- Die! - I am your brother!
Die, all you pieces of shit!
- Retreat! - Bastards
Retreat!
State guard bastards...
Jin-tae, get up!
You have to come with me!
Let's go, we have no time!
Bro, get up! We have to go! We have to go now!
We have to get out of here
Please, get up!
Don't you think of mom?
You have to take care of Young-shin's grave!
You promised many things!
You can't die here!
You have to live to see me go to college, come on!
- Jin-seok? - Jin-tae!
You're really alive
Go!
No, Jin-tae! I won't go alone
- Just go - No way!
- Get up and come with me - Listen
