Japan has reached
the stage of advanced capitalism

132

[laughs awkwardly] Well…

142
00:07:49,218 --> 00:07:52,555

We're not going there to dance the hula!

We're gonna create an army there.

153

Do you have any idea
what kind of place North Korea is?

Can you just follow the radar?

00:09:37,868 --> 00:09:39,996
We get our directions
from the control towers.

They tell us where.

Do you know the frequency

Quiet, you old bastard!
You think we're idiots?

Seems like

200
00:10:36,218 --> 00:10:38,804
we really only need one pilot
to get us there.

201

Experts say they estimate
somewhere between five

and one hundred.

257

276
00:14:30,160 --> 00:14:33,956
If our sales fall,
will the Self-Defense Forces bail us out?

Or is the Japanese government
going to step in?

I understand.

279
00:14:38,252 --> 00:14:41,213
We demand your forces retreat
and start refueling.

280
00:14:41,714 --> 00:14:44,800
Otherwise we will detonate the bomb
and blow this whole plane up!

00:16:08,676 --> 00:16:09,593
Hang on.

312
00:16:11,720 --> 00:16:13,806
That plane is headed our way.

[tense, dramatic music playing]

314
00:16:26,235 --> 00:16:28,153
What is going on?

315
00:16:30,781 --> 00:16:32,783
They gotta have a plan, right?

316
00:16:33,659 --> 00:16:35,995
The Defense Forces have a strategy?

317
00:16:36,870 --> 00:16:37,871
[Ishida] What the hell?

318
00:16:37,955 --> 00:16:40,207
-Whose fighter jet is that?
-[men muttering]

319

-Radio it, now! Do it!
-Radio!

[tense music continues]

321
00:16:47,965 --> 00:16:51,468
-Which one of you ordered this?
-Oh… It wasn't me, sir.

322
00:16:51,552 --> 00:16:53,178
-[man] Oh!
-Sir, I gave the command.

323
00:16:53,804 --> 00:16:54,722
What?

324
00:16:54,805 --> 00:16:58,600
As an officer representing my nation,
I will not just stand by and watch!

325
00:16:58,684 --> 00:17:02,104
And what will you do
if people are killed because of this?

326
00:17:06,191 --> 00:17:09,403
I guarantee that will not happen. Hmm?

327
00:17:13,907 --> 00:17:15,034
Who is that?

00:17:48,317 --> 00:17:49,860
What is this guy doing?

332
00:17:51,028 --> 00:17:53,322
It looks like he's just disembarking.

[pilot grunts]

334
00:18:02,122 --> 00:18:03,290
Did he…

335
00:18:04,124 --> 00:18:06,168
just leave his jet on the runway?

336
00:18:06,251 --> 00:18:07,503

General Choi! Wait!

Why is he behaving like this?

350
00:18:44,790 --> 00:18:48,085
[man 2] I heard the Air Force
sided with the Blue House chief of staff.

351
00:18:48,168 --> 00:18:49,253
Guess it's true.

Oh, wow. [laughs]

00:18:59,680 --> 00:19:01,557
Now, what huge national crisis

355
00:19:01,640 --> 00:19:05,310
are you all gathered here today
to figure out? [laughs]

356

[man 1] Who are you?

Oh, I'm no one important.
Just call me… Nobody.

My dear Nobody.

-Oh! How have you been?
-Okay, thanks to you.

360
00:19:13,485 --> 00:19:16,655
So, you've gotten
the general rundown, right?

361
00:19:17,489 --> 00:19:18,657
What do you think?

362
00:19:18,740 --> 00:19:21,160
Isn't it just a few Japs
wanting to skip off to North Korea?

363
00:19:21,243 --> 00:19:22,494
Why not just say "<i>sayonara</i>"?

364
00:19:22,578 --> 00:19:25,122
Don't say "Japs"!
Where do you think you are?

365
00:19:25,205 --> 00:19:27,040
Oh, gee, my old sailor mouth.

366
00:19:27,124 --> 00:19:28,959
You see, during the Japanese occupation,

367
00:19:29,042 --> 00:19:32,880
my grandfather lived two houses down
from an independence activist.

368
00:19:32,963 --> 00:19:34,464
Hey, wait, wait, back up.

369
00:19:34,548 --> 00:19:37,885
The same grandfather who readily
gave them up to the Japanese police?

370
00:19:37,968 --> 00:19:41,305
Ah, that's a… sensitive subject.

371
00:19:41,388 --> 00:19:46,059
Anyway, whether it's Japan or North Korea,
how is it our concern? [laughs]

372
00:19:46,143 --> 00:19:48,937
National borders don't matter
when lives are at stake.

373
00:19:49,021 --> 00:19:51,064
We're dealing with human rights.

374
00:19:51,148 --> 00:19:53,233
Rights at the KCIA?

375
00:19:53,734 --> 00:19:55,944
Well, that's new. [inhales]

376
00:19:59,656 --> 00:20:03,368
Oh, uh, have we gotten
the necessary authorizations?

377
00:20:03,452 --> 00:20:07,080
His Excellency has some important matters
to deal with today.

378
00:20:07,164 --> 00:20:10,792
I'll bring him up to speed later
as a surprise gift.

379
00:20:15,505 --> 00:20:18,008
Some CIA intel has come in from America.

[soldier] <i>The situation</i>
<i>doesn't look good here, sir.</i>

382
00:20:22,221 --> 00:20:23,680
If Japan fucks up,

383
00:20:24,723 --> 00:20:28,352
it is possible that the aircraft
will pass through South Korean airspace.

I can see what the US is saying.

386
00:20:33,857 --> 00:20:36,318
It's easier
to keep an eye on the Soviet Union

387
00:20:36,401 --> 00:20:39,196
if Japan is working alongside us.

388
00:20:40,197 --> 00:20:42,991
But the question is, what's Japan doing?

[Nobody hesitates]

So what you're saying is
we'll fix this mess, show off to the Japs,

395
00:20:58,548 --> 00:21:01,885
and then maybe
kiss a little bit of Yankee ass?

Hello? Yes, go ahead.

400
00:21:11,603 --> 00:21:14,022
Good Lord.
How many times do I have to tell you?

401
00:21:14,106 --> 00:21:16,275
Those men need to be commies!

402
00:21:17,067 --> 00:21:19,069
Ah? Evidence? Huh?

403
00:21:21,905 --> 00:21:23,991
Yeah, I'll have it for you in two weeks.

404
00:21:24,574 --> 00:21:25,701
All right.

405
00:21:25,784 --> 00:21:26,660
Jesus.

406
00:21:26,743 --> 00:21:28,787
So what you're saying is,

407
00:21:28,870 --> 00:21:31,915
if the plane makes it to North Korea
with the passengers in tow,

408
00:21:31,999 --> 00:21:33,166
they'll be used as leverage

409
00:21:33,250 --> 00:21:35,919
for those communists
to negotiate with Japan, right?

410
00:21:36,003 --> 00:21:37,671
[bangs desk] Hear me out.

411
00:21:38,171 --> 00:21:41,550
Just suppose
the thing they ask for is financial aid.

412
00:21:41,633 --> 00:21:45,721
If that happens,
just think about North Korea's GDP.

413
00:21:45,804 --> 00:21:47,764
Then it could surpass our own,
couldn't it?

414
00:21:47,848 --> 00:21:49,224
-[men murmuring]
-Yeah.

415
00:21:49,308 --> 00:21:51,435
Just hearing that
makes my blood sugar drop.

416
00:21:52,477 --> 00:21:54,229
What would happen… [grunts]

417
00:21:54,313 --> 00:21:58,775
… if we take this thing by the reins
and solve the problem ourselves?

418
00:21:59,443 --> 00:22:00,652
If we succeed,

419
00:22:00,736 --> 00:22:04,740
then Japan would be
immensely grateful and in our debt.

420
00:22:04,823 --> 00:22:08,535
And our beloved nation
would then be internationally renowned!

421
00:22:08,618 --> 00:22:10,495
-[men laughing]
-Right? Yeah! [laughs]

422

[men laughing, applauding]

423
00:22:13,540 --> 00:22:16,418
Wow! That would certainly
please His Excellency.

424
00:22:16,501 --> 00:22:19,004
And it would give
the Blue House's chief an ulcer!

425
00:22:19,087 --> 00:22:21,173
[men laughing]

426
00:22:21,256 --> 00:22:23,800
All right, all right. Let's recap.

427
00:22:23,884 --> 00:22:25,177
[Nobody clears throat]

428
00:22:25,260 --> 00:22:27,679
Let's say that Japan fails,
just as we expect.

429
00:22:27,763 --> 00:22:30,057
That would mean those lunatics,
armed with a bomb

430
00:22:30,140 --> 00:22:32,100
and carrying 130 hostages,

431
00:22:32,184 --> 00:22:34,311
would then be off to North Korea.

432
00:22:34,394 --> 00:22:37,189
We need to peacefully redirect them,

433
00:22:37,272 --> 00:22:39,483
and we have to do it
while they're in the air.

434
00:22:39,566 --> 00:22:40,984
Mm-hmm. Mm-hmm.

435
00:22:43,320 --> 00:22:45,197
How the hell do we do that?

436
00:22:45,697 --> 00:22:47,115
We negotiate.

437
00:22:47,199 --> 00:22:49,576
[men murmur approvingly]

438
00:22:49,659 --> 00:22:51,661
Thank you for that valuable insight.

439
00:22:51,745 --> 00:22:54,456
The problem, though,
is that it's not realistic.

440
00:23:02,547 --> 00:23:04,758
Uh, we need a moment in private.

441
00:23:12,516 --> 00:23:14,142
So, buddy…

442
00:23:14,726 --> 00:23:16,728
is it actually impossible?

443
00:23:18,355 --> 00:23:21,483
Because if I say I wanna walk on water,

444
00:23:21,566 --> 00:23:24,361
your job is to freeze it solid.

445
00:23:26,238 --> 00:23:27,155
Well…

446
00:23:28,156 --> 00:23:30,117
I'm not a miracle worker.

447
00:23:30,617 --> 00:23:33,078
You've got tricks up your sleeve, eh?

448
00:23:33,745 --> 00:23:36,373
I could even make
that dream of yours come true,

449
00:23:36,456 --> 00:23:38,458
the one you've always wanted?

450
00:23:40,210 --> 00:23:41,128
Hmm?

451
00:23:43,296 --> 00:23:46,258
Go on,
pull a dove out of this hat of yours.

452
00:23:46,341 --> 00:23:47,968
Flap, flap, flap, flap, flap!

453
00:23:50,512 --> 00:23:53,598
I think, uh… it might make you angry.

454
00:23:53,682 --> 00:23:55,809
What? My friend.

455
00:23:56,393 --> 00:23:59,396
I am not capable of anger. [chuckles]

456
00:24:00,147 --> 00:24:02,232
Buddy, just say it.

457
00:24:02,899 --> 00:24:03,984
[man chuckles softly]

I have a heart condition.

According to our party's tenets,

Quiet!

517

We obey our leader always!

So what is RAPCON, anyway?

586
00:30:06,137 --> 00:30:08,640
[soldier] RAPCON.
Stands for Radar Approach Control.

587
00:30:08,723 --> 00:30:12,894
A top-of-the-line monitoring system
that the US has used since 1968.

588

So… who are you, anyway?

594
00:30:29,869 --> 00:30:32,914
Oh, me? I'm a nobody, really.

[soldier]
Am I understanding this correctly?

597

Some punk kids have hijacked an aircraft,

598
00:30:47,846 --> 00:30:50,598
so we're going to hijack
their communications?

599
00:30:50,682 --> 00:30:52,892

You have no idea how this works, do you?

602
00:30:58,982 --> 00:31:02,610
The air traffic controller
cannot actually call the aircraft first.

603
00:31:02,694 --> 00:31:04,821
So you have to make it
so they can call first.

604
00:31:04,904 --> 00:31:06,823
Since you know so well how this works.

605

Let's say we're able
to establish a connection.

Yeah, I don't think
we can get 'em all in the air,

But is it really all right

1191
01:02:01,050 --> 01:02:03,219
for us to claim that this is North Korea?

1192

Oh, human lives are far more important
than ideology, are they not?

by a North Korean grenade, weren't they?

1204
01:02:38,796 --> 01:02:41,799
Not exactly, sir.
It was one of our own grenades.

1205

[Park inhales sharply, exhales]

1206
01:02:44,719 --> 01:02:48,181
A tragedy of war.
Sacrifices are inevitable.

1207

-But he still holds his head up high!
-That's right!

1208
01:02:50,933 --> 01:02:52,643
And his head will be higher still!

1209
01:02:52,727 --> 01:02:56,939
His son here is going to be given
our nation's medal of honor.

-Resume your duties.
-Yes, sir!

[quietly] Hey, listen, uh…

1212
01:03:03,279 --> 01:03:06,824
We should just put that guy out
front and center, don't you think?

1213
01:03:06,908 --> 01:03:08,367
Can't you just picture it?

1214
01:03:08,951 --> 01:03:12,497
A national hero,
following in his father's noble footsteps!

1215
01:03:13,664 --> 01:03:15,291
[man] All right, everyone focus!

1216
01:03:15,374 --> 01:03:18,669
You have 30 seconds
to get changed and gather outside!

1217
01:03:19,378 --> 01:03:21,839
These women are a little overdressed,
don't you think?

1218
01:03:21,923 --> 01:03:24,842
Oh, no way!
Look, the whole thing has to be realistic.

1219
01:03:25,343 --> 01:03:26,511
You know what they say.

1220
01:03:26,594 --> 01:03:29,514
"Get your men from the South
and your women from the North." Gorgeous!

-Is that so?
-Uh-huh.

1222
01:03:31,224 --> 01:03:33,434
[Nobody] Why are you wearing
a North Korean uniform?

1223
01:03:33,518 --> 01:03:36,896
Mm. [director clears throat]
Before I was a director, I was an actor!

1224
01:03:36,979 --> 01:03:39,398
If I can't capture
this historical moment on film,

1225
01:03:39,482 --> 01:03:41,776
at the very least,
I wanna participate in it!

1226
01:03:41,859 --> 01:03:45,279
Look, the only way this works
is if it's totally believable.

1227
01:03:45,363 --> 01:03:47,782
Do you really think
you're passable as a soldier?

1228
01:03:51,828 --> 01:03:53,037
Oh, I see.

1229
01:03:53,621 --> 01:03:55,039
It's 'cause I'm fat, isn't it?

1230
01:03:55,122 --> 01:03:56,958
-Assistant Director.
-Sir.

1231
01:03:57,041 --> 01:03:59,627
Is that not body discrimination?

1232
01:03:59,710 --> 01:04:02,630
Oh, yeah. That could really
get you in big trouble these days.

1233
01:04:02,713 --> 01:04:04,465
No, no, no. I'm just thinking…

1234
01:04:05,091 --> 01:04:06,926
you gotta look like a soldier.

1235
01:04:08,678 --> 01:04:09,929
Forget it. Whatever.

1236
01:04:10,012 --> 01:04:11,973
Ah, I see.

1237
01:04:12,056 --> 01:04:15,226
'Cause no soldier could ever be too fat
to see his own dick, huh?

1238
01:04:16,394 --> 01:04:18,771
Can we be serious here?
You know I didn't say that.

1239
01:04:18,855 --> 01:04:22,108
My backstory is that I am an officer
from a wealthy family

1240
01:04:22,191 --> 01:04:23,901
who valued a good meal!

1241
01:04:23,985 --> 01:04:26,821
Kim Il Sung from North Korea
isn't exactly svelte, is he?

1242
01:04:26,904 --> 01:04:27,864
All right…

1243
01:04:27,947 --> 01:04:30,741
You know how many
anti-communist films I've made?

1244
01:04:30,825 --> 01:04:32,827
-Eight films!
-[Nobody] Do whatever you want!

Doesn't it just…
just make your heart swell with pride?

1558

We must never, ever forget

Every time I think about it,

their own issues to deal with as well.

Well, uh, please, Minister, have a seat.

Our government received no warning

that our civilian aircraft
would be landing here.

Was this an official operation
by South Korea?

If it were official,

alerted you beforehand.

to disguise this place as Pyongyang.
