This drama spans the first year of the Korean War,

which broke out on June 25, 1950, and raged for three years.

Most of the events of the Korean War have been dramatically recreated,

and do not reflect any actual individuals or troops.

The frightening sound of the gong was a tactic of the Chinese army as they moved in.

The UN forces, who believed the war would be over before Christmas, decide to withdraw.

The 2nd Company is ordered to stay and defend Pyeongyang,

to give the Allies time to withdraw.

Episode 16

Su Yeon,

wait just a little longer...

just a little.

Are you okay?

Do we continue to march North today?

Everyone is anxious about how much longer we'll march in the opposite direction.

I give the orders. You just have to follow them.

Captain!

Am I not the captain?

You said to save your lives, so no matter what, I'll do that.

It's the Chinese army!

I think they want to see if we're the enemy.

Damn! We're caught now!

We'll attack the front line. Go into the hills.

Ready for battle!

Ready for battle!

They're enemies disguised in our uniform! Everyone ready to fight!

It seems they realized we're not Chinese soldiers!

We're almost out of ammunition! How can we fight such a great number?

We're all dead now!

Did their entire population come? There is no end to them!

Use the ammunition sparingly! Wait until they reach the crossroads!

Wait just a bit.

You have to stay well hidden.

Stay hidden, then go with them. Do you understand?

Attack!

Medic! Medic!

Captain, we're really out of ammunition now!

We're out of ammunition!

We're also out of grenades, Captain!

I'm out as well, Captain!

Me, too!

I'm out, too!

Run. Run toward your side! Hurry!

Hurry up and go! You dummy, go!

Blades on your guns!

Attack!

Attack!

Captain, It's the American army!

What is that?

Are we the forefront then?

What's going on?

Don't you see what's going on?

Our allies are pushing their way up here.

Hello!

Take off the Chinese uniforms first!

Sergeant, check on the casualties!

Yes, sir.

Hurry up and take off the uniforms and throw them down!

If they take us for Chinese and shoot, we're all dead!

Why aren't you listening to me?

Why didn't you go?

Hey, wave the Korean flag!

Hurry up!

Hello!

You...

You're the ones who fired on us before.

What the hell are your men doing wearing Chinese uniforms?

We had to disguise ourselves because we were isolated in the enemy's territory.

Isolated?

Oh God, no...

Our squad was isolated as well, fifteen days ago.

Tried moving South. It just took too long avoiding enemy position.

When we heard the gunfire, we thought it was the UN forces arriving.

We thought we were rescued.

But no.

Hey, same here.

My men can't take another step.

We've got nothing left.

They're worse off than we are. I think they're very disappointed.

Baker.

Don't give up yet. We'll get back alive for sure.

Hello, hello. Hello.

Eat.

Let's share this, huh? Let's share this.

Hi. Hi. Hi. This is food.

Food, thank you.

Thank you so much. Thank you.

Hi. Food. Food. Food. Here.

This is called burnt rice. Try it.

It might look strange but once you taste it, you'll like it.

Don't be afraid and try it.

Hello. Hello.

We share it.

Food, food, food.

Based on what we saw earlier, there will be other units around nearby.

Are you thinking of a surprise attack?

What are you thinking?

Our men are hungry and exhausted. The American soldiers are worse off.

They don't even have the strength to shoot, so how can we conduct a surprise attack?

How do you think that could be possible?

Do you think I'm crazy?

If you're asking us to go on a suicide mission, you can't be in your right mind.

You're too honest.

Should I guess what you're thinking?

From the beginning, you had no plans to escape from here.

You used the order to stay as a reason to return to Pyeongyang!

Isn't that so?

Are you trying to kill all of us?

If you're not, tell me you're not!

Shin Tae Ho...

You saw with your own eyes! Kim Su Yeon is dead!

Even if you go back to Pyeongyang, you can't see her! Kim Su Yeon is dead!

What do you think you know?

I am...

also hurt.

I wish I could cry, or pretend to be crazy like you,

but I can't.

You're not the only one who doesn't want to accept that she's dead.

When I first left for Jiri Mountain,

I made a promise to Su Yeon.

I promised to return alive no matter what happened.

I'm just trying to keep that promise.

So...

you're going to sacrifice all of us...

so you can return to Pyeongyang?

No. You're wrong. We're not moving North anymore.

Right after we steal their supply truck, we turn and go South.

That's my plan.

Even if everyone doubted you, I believed in you and followed you here.

Even if you are crazy.

Even if you keep taking us North,

I have to trust you, Captain.

But now you have to accept...

that Kim Su Yeon is dead.

She died right in front of you and me.

It's an airplane. Hide!

Odd.

It's even. You do it this time.

Ta-da!

You'll never beat me. There's no one who can beat me at this.

Those who aren't badly hurt, stand up.

We're going to steal the enemy's supply truck.

What do you mean? Another battle?

It's the captain's order.

What?

Lieutenant, a battle is not possible in our condition.

Whether we die from starvation or in battle, dying is dying.

With what happened to Lieutenant Ma, I thought he went a little crazy,

but he's completely insane.

Hey guys, our captain has gone crazy.

Be quiet!

No one is crazy.

Those who are not wounded and can shoot a gun, get ready.

The captain is coming.

You stay here.

Hyung-nim.

I'll be right back.

He's completely taken to him.

We'll take him with us, so we can give him to the Chinese soldiers if we see them.

He's not a thing.

Listen to me. You stay and wait for me here.

What?

Give me your grenades and ammunition.

Ammunition is life or death for my men.

You've got no right to ask for that.

We need it, and you need food and medicine.

If you can't find supplies, your men will all die.

So, let us find some supplies.

No. We just can't have you risk your lives like that at our expense.

He's refusing?

He doesn't want us sacrificing our lives for them.

Tell him he saved us, so it's our turn to save them.

Since you saved us, it is our turn.

We'll make sure you go back to your country alive.

We'll let you go back to your country alive.

We are comrades.

We are comrades.

It is a soldier's glory to die for our brothers.

It is a soldiers' glory to die for our comrades.

Alright. I still have a few men that can fight.

I can join them,

but we do the operation together.

He said he still has men who can fight.

They would like to join in this battle.

There. That's the enemy supply truck.

There are more of them than I thought.

There is a greater number of them but what's more important is...

that they're scattered around, so it's risky to launch a surprise attack.

Are there many of them?

If they're all in one place, we can wipe them out in one sweep,

but they're too scattered about.

I knew it was a crazy idea to begin with. Damn it.

Why did that kid follow us all the way here?

Aigoo, American soldiers, a Chinese kid. We're an international army.

Hey, you. Blow your horn.

What do you mean?

When you do this, then they...

Don't you know how?

You don't want to?

We let you live and gave you food to eat, so you should...

pay that back.

Hyung-nim!

Can you do it?

No. No.

He doesn't want to. He said he shouldn't.

Whose side are you on?

That's enough.

We have to blow the horn so all those men will gather together.

That's the only way we can succeed.

But you can't force him to do it.

Take him back and stay there.

It's nothing. It doesn't hurt at all.

I told you to not follow me.

I will blow the horn for you.

Listen to me carefully.

I'm going...

back to the men and fight.

Bang!

You keep yourself hidden until the fight is over,

then run back to your army camp.

Understand?

Go!

I said for you to go.

Go, you dummy!

What?

You want to play Odd/Even?

Okay, fine.

If I win,

I'll let you join the Korean Army.

You can go with me and fight.

But if you win,

you have to go back to your army camp. Got it?

Odd!

Oh, I lost.

I've never lost at this game before.

Okay, now that you've won, go home.

Even in war, and even if we're from different countries, a bet is a bet.

So hurry up and get out of here.

Go.

If you don't go, I'll get mad. Go on!

Three to a team; each team take one vehicle.

What is that?

Why the horn sounding to assemble all of a sudden?

Are we moving on already?

Attack!

Hurry up!

All aboard!

Let's go!

Everyone on board!

Everyone on board!

Chan Shik, hurry up. Hurry!

Hurry and get on!

Run! Run!

Get going!

Even if it was luck that helped us to succeed,

I believe it's the result of our trust in you, once again.

And I believe that you will continue...

to lead this company to safety.

Shin Tae Ho, just as you believe in me,

I believe that Su Yeon is still alive.

I pray that this snow that's falling lands warmly on Su Yeon,

wherever she is.

Jang Woo, I'm alive.

As I continue to walk on this road...

that doesn't seem like it'll ever end,

I have only one thought.

We have to stay alive, so we can all return to Yeongchon.

That hope of being back...

in our warm hometown together.

That earnest hope.

So Jang woo, don't worry.

Don't worry about anything, and just survive.

Stay alive.

That church must have been the command post.

The trenches being in that condition...

could only mean there's a battle going on nearby.

If there's a battle going on, that must mean the allies are here as well?

We just raced blindly and ended up catching a rat with the cow's hind hoof.

I'll go and scout the area.

Any more is pushing it.

We camp here tonight.

Secure the boundaries well.

Translate to him to make his own decision for the American soldiers.

Hey, Baker. We camp here tonight.

It is your choice. To come with us or not.

Until we get out of this mess alive,

consider ourselves one of Lee Jang Woo's troops.

What?

He said until we get out of here, they are your men.

Is that you, sir?

Officer Jo?

Throw your gun down!

Shut up or he's dead!

Throw your gun down, you bastard!

You throw yours down!

Calm down. Calm down.

Shut your mouth!

You damned bastard...

Throw your gun down!

This is the last supper.

The last supper...

The last supper?

Wow, that smells good. It smells really good.

There's a lot of food left.

It's your last meal. Eat up.

I thought you said you were starving.

Hey, have some more. Eat more.

Since we dumped everything in there, we'll have to go hungry starting tomorrow.

The captain said we'll be going back tomorrow so we should eat up.

He really said tomorrow?

If we can fix the radio, we can go back to camp.

If you can't fix it, put it away. I don't want to get my hopes up.

What are you doing with the Chinese radio?

We can fix it.

If you fix it, you think you can use Korean with it?

If you get shot by a Chinese bullet, a Korean person won't die?

What an idiot...

What did you say?

The captain sure has a strange hobby.

Is he trying to collect uniforms of all color?

Just two bullets would take care of it.

No,

I guess we need one more. For this kid.

An officer waiting on his underling... are you more than comrades?

We're all fighting to protect our people.

So that's why you started this war?

You say to protect your people?

Are you asking a lowly soldier like me the meaning of this war?

Then... do you know, Lieutenant?

Of course.

This war is to defend democracy and the people of South Korea.

It is a soldier's duty to follow orders, even if he doesn't know the meaning of it.

You're misunderstanding something.

A soldier must...

fight it to win,

but it's also his duty to keep the war from starting.

You started this war, yet you picked up a gun without knowing the reason?

Before spewing your awkward propaganda, give some thought...

to how many lives were lost in this war.

Wow, it's gotten big!

Be careful. Careful.

Let's use this for hair.

And put a helmet on it.

Hey. Hey, chocolate. Eat it. Eat.

Let's use the horn, too.

It looks nice.

Snowball fight!

Don't blame yourself.

It's a miracle that we made it here.

If it weren't for you, it wouldn't have been possible.

so... don't blame yourself anymore.

I made a promise... with Lieutenant Ma.

Forget you saw me.

Get up.

Stop acting and let's go home.

Please shoot me.

But promise me one thing.

Keep...

the men of the company alive,

and send them back home to their families.

I'll promise.

In return, you promise that if we escape, we do it together.

If we die, we die together.

That's the spirit of the 2nd Company.

Do you think you're the only one who knows camaraderie?

I do also.

And I can't stand the thought that my brothers died because of me.

I know.

That leg... you hurt it while you were trying to save Chan Shik.

Like you saved the men of the platoon,

I'm also going to protect my men.

I beg you, please.

Take the company and get out of here!

Let me be the one to beg you.

Ma Chang Gil,

don't ever give up.

Give me...

No.

Give the men of the company you fought with a chance.

The chance to get out of here together.

Don't give up until we can do that.

You and I...

we both have people waiting for us.

Let's go together, Chang Gil.

I need to find something to carry you on.

Victory to South Korea.

It's Lieutenant Ma...

that kept me going until now.

Captain...

Lieutenant Ma gave his life...

for his comrades.

But I still can't...

give up Su Yeon.

It's hard to even breathe anymore.

We have to let her go.

Please let her go!

I'm sure Kim Su Yeon would want that also.

She would want for you to live on.

And 2nd Company... we need you.

Please don't give up on us to the end.

Chang Gil, I'm sorry.

Su Yeon,

please forgive me.

I couldn't save anyone.

I'm sorry.

Captain Lee Jang Woo, you will always be our captain.

So please hang on just a little bit longer.

North or South?

Don't shoot.

North or South!

Help me.

Please...

Help me.

Hey, let's get some sleep.

This is Eagle. Answer. This is Eagle.

Eagle, Eagle. This is Black Kite. Eagle!

Black Kite! Black Kite! This is Eagle... where are you?

Captain! We got through! It's the battalion headquarters! The radio is working!

Eagle. Eagle. This is Black Kite. Answer.

This is Eagle. Report your location.

Eagle, this is the Black Kite cage. Eagle.

Commander, we got through to Black Kite!

Are you cold?

Let's hurry up and finish the dishes and rest.

Just a minute.

Oh, my hands are cold.

Here, eat this. The American soldier gave it to me.

It's chocolate.

Hyung-nim...

No.

You have to go back to your army's camp now. You can't follow us anymore.

Hyung-nim.

If you want to live, go.

Your leg is all better now. Hurry and go!

Hyung-nim.

Hyung-nim...

Lieutenant! Sergeant Kim! To the left.

The American soldiers go to the right.

Sergeant Oh! Let's go face death together.

What do we do with them?

American soldiers, to the right!

Move quickly!

Move quickly! Sergeant Kim, hurry over here!

How could this happen?

Now that the radio is fixed, I thought we would be able to return to camp!

Oh, my goodness...

They said the allies are just a bit further ahead...

I... hey!

2nd Company!

Our allies are only 10km South of here!

If we get through this,

we will escape this hell!

This is our final battle!

Empty your bullets on them! Do you understand?!

- Yes, sir! - Yes, sir!

God bless you.

Attack!
