Original subtitles

For a commie to settle in Bo-seong

this would be the ideal spot.

Because the mountains surrounding it are serving as a shield,

and there is only this small entrance.

Therefore it would be hard to attack.

In addition many locals are commies themselves so

the commies call this place the Moscow of Bo-seong.

We should have paid more attention to this place.

We have classified this place as useless, I'm afraid.

We still have plenty of food and time.

So help yourself!

He's alive! He's alive!

It's really you.

We can't postpone it any longer.

You must get married right now.

An emergency warning!

Gather around!

Even if our defenses are penetrated,

it is 3.2km away by mountain path.

It takes at least 2~3 hours.

Of course we must assume the worst and prepare for retreat but

we must do all this without the people's knowledge of it.

Yes, sir.

All gathered!

- We will be back soon. - Do what you can.

Chief, I heard that Yulo is a world of commies.

How can anybody live there?

Why do you ask?

You are a little bit suspicious.

I'm just curious.

They say they are going to create a paradise.

I wonder if they succeeded.

They are having a great time by themselves.

They did their own farmland reform and

the commies and the locals are playing and farming together...

Head.

Ah, there you all are.

Sit down.

The Martial Law Army will be in action tomorrow.

Pick 20 men and support them.

Yes.

I don't know what on earth the general is thinking.

When it comes to operations, the key is secrecy but

he doesn't even seem to think about it.

It's not even an operation.

And what about the combat?

It's not even a combat.

That's why they couldn't win!

Many locals have a problem with him as well.

The war of attrition is what the commies want.

We are doing exactly what they want.

Already, 5 men is down.

Good afternoon, sir.

Mayer, sir.

Listen, The general Shim

has been given such a power.

Then he has to kill the commies and help the landlords.

But he is siding with the tenants.

He has completely forgot his duty.

We must file complaint and change him.

We cannot let him continue like this.

June 5th the Beol-gyo branch of the people guidance union is created.

June 6th Special investigation committee of anti-nationalism attacked by Police

Special police force disorganized.

June 21st The government proclaims an impossible farmland reform law.

Bride enters.

Groom stand up.

Bow.

It's been a while.

Comrade Jung.

- How have you been? - Fine thanks to you.

Fortunately there is a happy event in progress.

Yes.

The clique thinks that this is the most ideal town form.

I will stay here for a few days

and report the management of this town.

I'm looking forward to your teachings.

Someone must have tipped off.

How could they have attacked only our living quarters?

The enemy is approaching.

This is Mt. Baek-du, calling for Mt. Kum-gang.

The wild boars are heading your way.

Don't let them escape.

You must not let them escape.

Gae-soon, bring some water.

Yes.

Don't worry.

- Your husband is alright. - Are you sure?

Yes. Sang-gu inquired into it by himself.

It's all thanks to the protection of the Maitreya.

There are piles of bodies in front of the station.

More than 40 people have died and 20 wounded or arrested.

I had a bad dream last night.

I hope he is alright.

That pitiless bastard...

He must come back safe

so that I can show him how much I suffered.

Welcome.

Hide your skin for god's sakes.

A widower like me would think about something else.

You came to the right place at right time.

A widower came to a widow's house.

I followed the odor of a widow from a mile away.

And at the end of the odor, I found you here.

Make me some breakfast.

Wait just a moment.

It's not ready yet.

Then just give me some liquor.

I've never seen you before.

Are you here to sell wood?

Why? Would you buy it?

How much is it?

You live in the market and you are the one

who knows better than I do.

So just give me a fair price.

I would have to see the product first.

I don't even know whether it is a dry wood or a dry cucumber.

How can I give a fair price?

Then go look at it.

They must be like your thighs.

How about 600?

That's too cheap.

OK, then. A widower should be nice to a widow.

I'll just call it a day for today.

My name is Ha Jum-sang. What should I call you?

Do we even deserve a formal name?

Just call me market girl.

Anyway, how long has it been since you became a widow?

Almost 5 years but...

That's not a good subject to talk about in the morning.

Get the wood in.

It was easy to approach her.

Since he started, he wanted to finish it,

so I returned alone.

He ought to tread carefully.

He said that she likes men even more than the rumors.

He said it would be a piece of cake.

Well done.

Gosh!

I'm coming, coming!

I am second to none as for stamina

but you are better than I.

If 5 times isn't good enough,

how many times would it take to satisfy you?

Promise me that you will come here often.

It is your duty from now on to take care of me.

You started it, you finish it.

Or leave this behind.

How can I do that? Ask me something I can do.

I'm never letting you go.

Never.

Hello?

Yes, sir!

Yes, alright.

Wait just a moment.

It's the head, and he said that

Gyon-baek and Moon-duk have been attacked at the same time.

Hello?

Yes, this is the head of inspections.

What?

Gosh, it drives me crazy.

They are trying to wear us out by attacking different places.

We can't follow them each time.

Even if we go they would already be long gone.

Excuse me?

Yes, I will do that.

I understand, you're right. Don't worry.

Hey, Sang-pil.

Sang-pil.

Get it started. Damn it!

My goodness! How could anyone do this?

Private Na. Private Na!

Get out of my way.

Do you even imagine what my son means to me?

He's been the only son for 3 generations.

Now who is going to carry on a family line?

We will drive away America's imperialism,

free the people and re-unify our country.

We are fighting a holy war.

To win this war we need your absolute support.

Listen to me, people.

Join this holy war and cooperate with us.

And we'll all get to live in a world

without rank or exploitation.

If you stay here in town

you will be all mobilized by Lee Sun-man's army anyway.

It'll be dying for nothing.

Therefore, come with us and help make a better world.

The comrades who will join us, please stand over there.

Why are you hesitating?

Wait! We don't need an old comrade.

Just stay here.

Oh, thank you.

How are we going to earn the living now?

Be careful, son.

Let's all sit down.

Come on, take a seat.

If the army find out they've been here

we will all be in trouble.

We must not speak of this again.

Don't let children talk about it, either.

That is the only way to live.

Do you all understand?

We came here because there was a report. Stop lying.

Why were there torches in the middle of the night?

Where are all the young ones?

Well, it's always been like this.

Execute this man.

I'm innocent! I didn't do anything wrong!

You are killing a wrong person.

No, please save him!

I'll tell you the truth! They've been here! The commies...

Over there, Pyong-san. Come out here.

You volunteered for the commies and was rejected.

Mr. Choi come out.

Moung-gil come out.

Your husband fight for the commies.

Gun-gong, you gave them your son.

Over there, Gil-sang.

You gave them your cow.

What are you talking about?

I didn't give it to them, they stole it.

I will show you what happens

to the ones who betray the people.

Those who haven't yet purged a betrayer come out.

Comrades, with your everlasting hatred,

poke your swords into their hearts

and pledge our unchangeable struggle consciousness and solidarity.

People, see what happens to traitors.

Now, execute!

The people of Chil-bok village.

Everyone must leave the village by 17:00.

Until the bandits roaming this area are caught,

this village is to be evacuated.

So everyone of you must cooperate.

Gosh, my house is on fire.

- How can we live now... - Where should we go...

How can we earn a living...

Did anyone suspect you?

Well, there was a lot of staring since a woman like me

was looking for such drugs and needles.

I just told them it was for my old husband.

You did well.

I stopped by your house when I was in Beol-gyo.

What?

I was a little sorry for your wife and...

Everyone is saying that communist's families are starving.

I wondered how your family was living, so...

I went with a some barley corn.

Thank you.

How were they?

The house was empty.

After they went to their cousin's house,

no one hasn't heard about them.

June 26th Kim Gu is assassinated.

July 7th Special investigation committee of anti-nationalism members all resign.

July 7th The National Assembly starts revising farmland reform Law.

It's nice to meet you again.

Thank you.

Thanks to your help and hiring a lawyer

I was released early.

You went to the Kim Gu's funeral?

Yes. While I was at Seoul, I've been there, too.

Let's all go to the brook.

Yes.

I heard you came back from Seoul.

Isn't it open yet?

It would still take 3 to 4 days.

It's a lot harder than expected.

Ms. Lee, I would like to do something for the evening study.

Is there anything you need?

I was going to ask you something.

I would like you to sponsor the school supplies.

We have what is needed at the moment but

the future needs is the problem.

It's too expensive and rare.

I will sponsor the school supplies.

Thank you, sir.

We are having some trouble in gathering the students.

They think that, since they are farmers,

studying won't be necessary.

To the poor, studying may be a luxury one cannot afford.

That's when I realize the necessity of study.

Ignorance leads to submission and

they continue to be exploited by the upper class.

To bring equality, the only way is to educate the people.

If sounds as if you want to raise revolutionist by education.

The purpose of education does not lie in revolution

but to awaken the people.

To expel the foreign power and re-unify this nation...

Are you still talking about that nationalism?

You should abandon such ideas by now.

Nation' just serves as an excuse for the wobblers.

The important thing is not the nation but the class.

We should free the exploited class from the exploiting class

and then you can worry about the nation.

You will also have to choose a side.

Current situation doesn't allow wobblers any more.

Good bye.

As you know,

while the farmland reform Laws were proclaimed and postponed

the landlords are hiding their land to save their fortune.

If a landlord distributes his land equally and for free

it would provide the tenants

with great hope and struggle consciousness

and the landlords with a fair warning.

I want your family to do this.

If you think about the influence your family has in Beol-gyo,

the effect would be greater than anything.

I believe that you won't refuse.

And I hope your father agrees.

From Yeom Sang-jin.

I was told to get an answer.

Tell him that I refused.

After the law is approved officially

I will observe it conscientiously.

Do you not see the Republic of the People?

With the success of the farmland reform,

there is no longer a gap between rich and poor.

They are making a completely equal society without classes.

Ha-seop.

In the real world there is nothing complete.

Even the communism that you believe in at the moment

is a mere ghost fabricated by some politicians.

To adhere to it would lead people to misery,

I am very disappointed.

The man I had admired has now become a nihilist.

Is that so?

Here you are.

Yes, you came form the Jungs' house?

Anything going on?

I saw that shaman stop by the house again.

Yeah? They said they would have an exorcism last spring.

Did they have it or not?

No, there wasn't any.

Yeah?

Why is she so late?

He's going that way.

Catch him.

Come on, tell me the truth.

Since when have you become a commie?

No, I am not a commie.

He has always been my lover.

One day he showed up all of a sudden

and asked me for a favor so...

I just liked doing his errands.

Listen carefully.

You are definitely a commie.

If you don't tell me the remnants in town

then you won't go out of here alive.

Tell me now!

I did his errands because I like him.

If that's a sin then kill me.

The gods are looking down on me and I am telling a lie.

What?

What is happening in this world?

Since when are girls allowed to coquet like a whore?

Uh?

What an exaggeration!

Has she really fainted away?

Take her down.

Hey, Sang-gu.

I like everything about you

except one thing.

You always get to have the credits all to yourself.

Come on, it's nothing like that.

When I have the results,

- I'll give them to you. - What happened?

Did you kick a pregnant woman?

Mother...

Mother, help me.

Head Jang is coming.

What brings you here?

Come in, please.

Detective Choi, excuse us for a minute.

Oh, my legs... Ouch...

I've heard that you supported financially your communist son.

What are you talking about?

The shaman made a confession.

Your wife helped her collect the money.

Why did you do such a thing? Why...

The Martial Law Enforcement Headquarters

want to arrest both of you

but tell them it was your call.

If both of you are arrested this family will be finished.

And also,

you have a shaman daughter-in-law now.

That shaman was turned out to be pregnant.

I've heard you had Ha-seop's child and you lost it.

Only a few people know about this.

The heads of investigations and inspection have agreed

to cover this whole thing up.

Therefore, nothing will happen to you.

You went through too much trouble for Ha-seop.

Ha-seop is to be blamed to have irresponsibly behaved.

Then it is your fault

to allow him what you shouldn't have allowed him

as an unmarried woman.

Does Ha-seop know that you were pregnant?

No, he doesn't.

It's a happy feature of a misfortune.

He must not know of this.

You must not let him know till the day you die.

As you already know, you two cannot be together.

It's impossible and you must now forget about it.

Please don't blame me for being so harsh.

This will be the last time we meet.

Take care.

Sep. 9th communists continue their battle

to celebrate the first anniversary of the artificial woods.

Sep. 14th Mok-po prison is destroyed

350 prisoners including communists broke out.

What's happening here?

What's happening here? Oct. 27th The 300 partisans attack Jin-ju.

Oct. 27th The 300 partisans attack Jin-ju.

Is it supplying salty water? Oct. 27th The 300 partisans attack Jin-ju.

What? Salty water?

Oh no, we are ruined.

Hey, there! What on earth are you doing?

Who the hell are you people?

Why are you putting sea water here?

Who are you to say?

We are tenants here.

You will be struck by lightning for it!

Don't wanna hear you! Just get out of my way.

Don't even think about interrupting my job.

- What? - We are...

just doing what we are told.

This land is going to become a salt farm.

What? Salt farm?

Who said that?

Why making a salt farm?

Don't you see why?

Salt farms aren't covered by reform laws

and thus it needs not be divided.

What? You reckless bastard...

There is a rumor that you are hiding lands

by transferring the legal title of the lands.

And half of them is already under your relative's name.

Although I hasn't been generous to a great extent to you all

I lowered the rent rate

and have never done anything to be fingered at.

How can I do such a thing?

I know that it may be rude but

we want to see the land ownership documents ourselves.

Show it to us!

I really feel sorry.

They all admired your father and thanked him...

I can't believe how narrow minded we are...

Sir, I heard the communists say that when they rule the country

they'll take all the land and divide them equally to everyone.

Is this true?

Do you think it's true?

What would I know?

If that were true then everyone will like it.

It would be a dream come true.

You also want land, right?

Of course.

I would die for my own land.

Then suppose your wish is granted,

and you have your own land to farm on.

And the government ask you to give in the yield and

you have to draw you rationing every month.

- How would you feel? - That's crazy!

I must take care of my own rice.

Rationing will take away all the pleasure I would have!

How about this then...

You cultivate all together

and are given a fixed amount of rice?

Who would ever try hard if that's the case?

The cultivation would be horrible.

When it is your own you are bound to do better.

That's what people are like.

That's what the communism means by dividing the land.

1949 Nov. The army starts the great winter attack in Mt. Jiri

Have you heard the news?

The clique is retreating to Mt. Baek-woon.

The situation is not good since the clique is retreating.

Please, cut my leg.

We are completely surrounded.

There is no way to penetrate it.

We must find a way.

Or else, we'll all be wipe out here.

OK, I'll group a team and try to find a way out.

Comrade chairman!

Comrade chairman! 1950 March, End of the great winter attack

1950 March, End of the great winter attack

90% of the partisan in south Jeon-la province is wiped out.

Comrade chairman! 90% of the partisan in south Jeon-la province is wiped out.

She said that she would get the medicine in 3days.

Can we believe her?

Yes, she always keeps her word.

Where are you going to meet her?

At a deserted house in So-chi valley.

The next door is our cell.

Hello.

Ah, it's you. Nice to meet you.

Take a seat.

Apr. 6th A new farmland reform Law is proclaimed.

Selling and buying the land is allowed to 1.51 million farm houses.

What is the relationship between you and Park Bong-suk?

What did you just say?

Are you saying that you are a commie cell?

Yes, right.

Please show mercy...

I'll do anything.

Is there another cell besides you?

Come on, if you want to live, then talk.

Who is it?

Well...

One in the YMA and one in Gwang-yang.

That's all I know.

Get up!

Moon Gi-soo has surrendered with the other cells.

I knew he was a opportunist

but I never thought he would betray us.

I never thought there would be so many traitors...

But the most fatal is the farmland reform.

After the farmland reform is in valid

the hearts of the people are now with the government.

There are some who protest during the propagation struggle.

People are no longer interested in free distribution, either.

Comrade Choi. Wake up!

Damn it! We are all dying.

What is the North doing for us?

Hey, excuse me!

These are medical herbals.

I'll give you this, and give me some food in return.

I see you are a mountain man

but what are you doing here?

The War has been started.

What?

Really?

It's already been more than 10 days.

Hurrah!

Hurrah for the people's republic!

General! General!

The War has begun.

At last, the war...

has begun!

The Liberation Army have raided the South.

It's already been 10 days.

Please show mercy... I had no choice.

I had to do what they told me.

Remember how much I helped you.

For old time's sakes, please...

Please save me...

I have no choice.

Don't blame me, and blame this world.

Forgiving us communists,

"Forgiving us communists,"

and giving us a chance to repay the debt

"and giving us a chance to repay the debt"

we show our gratitude.

"We show our gratitude."

Oh, where have you been?

Are you ready to evacuate?

This evening, Gwang-joo has fallen to the hands of the commies.

Do you know why the members of the guidance union

is being summoned everyday?

It's been 5 days already.

They were once commies and were converted.

They might betray us, so we are just making sure.

They are pathetic...

They are treated bad here

but to the commies they will be first to be killed.

They hate traitors the most.

Unification without commies!

"Unification without commies!"

"Condemn the commies!" Early July, Mass execution of the guidance union members.

"Condemn the commies!" Early July, Mass execution of the guidance union members.

What happened to my son, Dong-su?

Tell me! You survived and...

What about my son?

My poor boy...

- Hurrah! - "Hurrah!"

Hurrah for the people's republic.

Hurrah! Hurrah!

Let me introduce myself.

I am the deputy chairman of the clique,

Bae Jang-su.

This is the head of home affairs in charge of public security

Lee Chang-sae.

Second lieutenant Song Myong-duck, in charge of recruitment.

And This is Kim Byong-jae in charge of the ideology inspection

and of the liquidation of traitors.

Every one of them have much experience in their professions.

As you all know,

since you weren't trained for practical administratives,

we were sent to help you by the central government.

We'll take care of the practical affairs.

We would like your support.

In charge of finance, comrade Ann Chang-min.

In charge of security, comrade Ha Dae-chi.

Second in command of security is Gang Dong-sik.

The head of farmers is Park Gil-su.

The head of Women's Union, Lee Ji-suk.

And the head of the YMA...

The positions would be reappointed through inspection.

Until then, do your jobs.

First of all, we will talk about the traitors.

How is the process going now?

There are problems more important than that.

We will talk about the election

and acceptance of administration first.

- Comrade Ann. - Yes.

Explain to them the procedure of tomorrow's election.

What are you talking about?

What is more important than catching the traitors?

What the people want the most is stability.

But the leaders of each department should already been picked.

What do you mean by picking?

The people must elect themselves.

This is a war time.

The election is just a formal act

- to put our people in office. - But the people...

Comrades, I must warn you,

not to confuse the real world and the ideal word.

The comrades in the South

haven't kept in touch with the people for a long time

and they lost their sense of the real.

- What are you saying? - Comrade Ha.

There is much we do not know.

I'll look forward to your teachings.

- Comrade Choi Ho-gil? - Yes.

- Comrade Min Gwang-nam? - Yes.

You two can't join the party.

You must work harder for the party.

Then you will have another chance.

Why can't these comrades join the party?

Comrade Choi has helped us by being a secret cell,

and comrade Min has joined us in 1947

and even have a certificate!

We do not trust the organization of the South.

What?

You allowed everyone to join you

without a thorough inspection.

And the organization is a total mess.

What? You're judging us like that?

You bastards,

when you were safe above the cease-fire line

we fought risking our lives and losing our limbs and now...

Comrade, behave yourself.

You son of bitch, are we your slaves?

We've been through all the hard work to abolish upper class,

and you are acting like one.

Comrade Ha.

What are you doing?

Apologize for your rudeness.

But, sir...

Have we risked our lives to be treated like this?

I feel so mortified.

I can not overlook this.

You will call a temporary committee for this.

We have offered you the position of the chairman several times

but you refused it every time.

Why did you refuse to cooperate?

I believe I have the right to do so.

As I studied your ideology,

I have found out that

you've always been an opportunist.

Also, we have found something very interesting.

In American military administration times

you made contact with government officer several time.

How would you explain that?

They asked me to interpret and I refused.

You bastard.

Tell me the truth.

I have found English books in your room.

You didn't take refuge

because you are a spy for the US government, aren't you?

Tell me the truth now.

Who is your secret contact?

Stop acting.

That malicious bastard!

Show him what we are capable of.

Aug. 15th the people's republic proclaims that

400,000 has volunteered to serve in the people's army.

Late August, the tide of the war has been turned over.

It is hard to live as a traitor's daughter.

I'm thinking of volunteering

as a nurse.

Then, my father would be released

and I would be able to join the party.

- Here he is. - Ah, Comrade Jung.

- Welcome. - Thank you.

Long time no see.

I heard that you were coming as an inspector.

So, what are the things you are going to inspect?

The election process, the levy of taxes,

and the process of farmland reform.

It would take at least a week for you to do so.

Let's all take a seat.

Well, how is the war going?

It's not going well.

They are not our match.

We're just running away from their attacks.

We can't face against America's mass supplies.

I almost thought that we were caught in a trap

devised by America.

It's the people's heart which is a more serious problem.

The severe collection of the yield is a problem

and the time to collect them is also problematic.

There is a lot of discontent among the people.

They're suffering even more.

As the central government keeps urging us

without understanding the situation

we're losing the people's mind.

If we go on like this, the situation will get worse.

When you go back to the clique, tell them about this matter.

The clique doesn't have a choice.

It's a big problem.

Once you lose the heart of the people,

it's hard to re-gain it.

You must find light in this dark time.

We have endured far worse than this.

Facing the most terrible situation, we didn't lose our faith.

We can overcome anything with such faith.

Is anybody home?

What is it?

Gwang Dong-sik from security department.

I came to ask you for some exorcise.

What kind of exorcise?

My wife died after eating potassium cyanide.

I heard of that.

But...

she keeps appearing in my dreams.

She looked terrible.

I just can't stand it.

I transferred her grave to a better place,

but it didn't work.

I want you to send her away.

Hello? Sir.

Don't you know that in the republic

exorcism is prohibited?

I know of it.

Communism forbids all kinds of religions.

Don't do it.

I'm not very intelligent, but it confuses me.

If it is a ideology for the people,

why does it forbid exorcism?

It is to ease the people's soul.

We do not believe in the spirit of the dead,

nor the afterlife.

We only believe the real world.

But it exists.

- Gwang is haunted by... - Don't do it.

You are going to become a wife of an executive member.

You can't exorcise any more.

What is it that you ask of me?

Two days after thanksgiving is my dead wife's birthday.

I would like an exorcise at that day.

The shaman said that since she died here,

we need to do the exorcise here.

That's no big deal but...

Isn't exorcism banned?

I'll take care of that.

I'll take your answer as yes. See you then.

Watch your mouth! I've already told you that...

Hurry. Give me the rice jelly.

Here, how much can I get for this?

I'll make you a good deal.

Empty bottles, worn-out rubber shoes...

Everything will do...

Mother.

Ah, it's you.

Mother, what is that?

It's nothing.

It's just trash.

Didn't you say that you couldn't come in today?

Let me see that.

Let's just come in.

He's family, no matter what.

And actually we have managed to survived

thanks to your brother.

Where are the kids?

I sent them to my sister's house.

Give me your gun.

It's been a long time.

What are you waiting for?

Shoot me in the chest.

Don't expect me to let you go alive.

I don't want to beg you for my life.

I'm just sorry that I didn't kill all the commies.

We grew up together.

We starved and suffered poverty together.

I never understand why you became such a reactionary element.

We all did this to survive.

You did what you had to do, and I did mine.

Although, now that I look back,

I haven't done much but to kill innocent people.

I wasn't educated because of you,

and I don't know the ideology of communism.

However, you didn't do a good job, either.

You always talk about a world of equality

but you take people's lives

as if they're worms or something.

Equality?

If that were easy, everyone would have done it.

From what I've heard

the people are turning their backs.

What's that about?

You went through all that just to end up like this?

You bastard,

we will succeed!

OK, everyone has his own means.

Now shoot.

Take care of Mother. That is my dying wish.

Don't think about coming back.

Even my house is being watched.

Sang-gu.

Early September, the people's army is completely defeated at Nak-dong river.

Sep. 15th, The UN's landing operation at Incheon succeeds

The Jeon-la province clique receives the retreat order.

I will announce the clique's emergent decision.

It's an order form the supreme General,

We must retreat right away.

We will be reorganized as underground formation.

The physically or ideologically weak will be sent to Soon-chun

while the others start a guerrilla war.

The people's committee

along with the women and young men's union

must retreat their families and others,

keep the secret document

and disperse the supplies and foods.

Do it as soon as possible.

We don't have much time.

I hope you rest in a better place.

You traitor.

Everybody, I caught a traitor.

What the hell are you doing?

It's completely insane!

Make them stop at once. Right now!

You talked about a world for the people and now what?

Get out!

Let him go, comrade Park.

Please excuse us for a moment.

What's going on?

You have eyes.

You see what's going on with your own eyes.

People are dying everywhere.

Stop them right now!

Sir! We are ready to retreat.

What's going on?

Didn't I order not to retaliate?

- They were just trying to... - Stop it at once.

It is impossible to control them right now.

You have failed.

Completely failed.

I can still remember what I felt

when I first read a Marx.

A world without any class or exploitation,

a world where every person is living a equal life,

I sworn to devote my life into making such a world.

But...

What did I miss?

What was wrong?

If I can,

I would like to start from the beginning.

It's too late. You have killed to many.

I have killed only the traitors.

The Russian Revolution is also based on such deaths.

Look at your hands once more.

They might be traitors but they were human beings.

An ideology that takes people as means

and that causes hatred between people

will never be a way to salvation.

Sir, the retreat starts.

I will go now.

Is the exorcise over?

Yes.

I have learned many things while watching your exorcise.

Even the lives of the living are being treated so trivially.

But you treat the life of the dead with your whole heart.

It feels like I was watching the world we had lost.

Exorcism is for the living.

It is for them to relieve their lamentation.

The lamentation of the living...

Then you must have a lot of work to do here.

1953 July 27th A reach to Armistice agreement.

Military casualties add up to 2.42 million, Civilian casualties, 2.86 million.

It was a war in which no one had won.
