Original subtitles

You are headed to a deserted island.

There is only one way off the island.

This boat.

The only way to start the engine is by inserting two keys.

And each team will receive one of the keys.

So we have to take away their key?

From noon until 8 p.m., do what you must to get their key.

Whichever team has both keys and escapes the island by boat wins.

What if neither team gets both keys?

There are security cameras all around the island.

The WOC committee will watch and give points according to preset rules.

But as you know, ten points were deducted from us as a penalty.

We're at a disadvantage if it comes to that.

So you must take away their key before the time is up.

The nerve of those...

They want a fight, don't they?

Yes, Your Majesty?

Besides getting the key, is there any other way to win?

If the other team formally surrenders.

And?

If you hurt the opponent severely with malicious intent,

they'll disqualify the entire team.

Besides that, all the principles can be used in this battle.

Read all the principles then.

"By the principle of annihilation,

you kill all members of the opposing team."

And?

"By the principle of division, you let the opponent destroy themselves

or lead a coup."

Other than that?

"By the principle of incapacitation,

you destroy your enemy's primary communications equipment."

Your Majesty?

-Explosion? -Yes.

You mean their supply storage room, communication center, all of them?

-Yes. -That's impossible.

If there's any serious problem...

So we have to make sure it wouldn't cause any problems.

You can blow one of each up separately and pressure them.

It would be best to make them surrender before exploding everything.

What will you do if they don't want to surrender?

If they hold out?

Then we'll blow it up.

Everything.

For now, we'll think of the worst-case scenario

and prepare to blow everything up.

How long do you need to finish whatever task you're given?

About eight hours.

You can't. Finish it within six hours.

If it ends in a stalemate, we will lose for sure.

Because of our penalty points.

We have to finish everything before 8 p.m.

But will we be able to finish setting all the explosions?

We don't even have the necessary equipment.

We just need two of these.

What's that?

Ignition equipment.

Ignition equipment?

Do you know what our military's biggest advantage is?

It's our mandatory conscription.

We gather officers from various fields.

My juniors in the army all brought different abilities with them.

Those who make cell phones.

Video game freaks.

So regular officers from the Military Academy like you

definitely won't know how to make this.

I'm the only one who can do this in this group. You know why?

Because I'm a reservist of South Korea, Lee Jae-ha.

During my military service, I did all sorts of things to kill time.

You are in charge of luring the recon team.

Go as far as you can to get their troops spread.

What are you doing?

Take action quickly!

Yes, a little while more.

Is this yours?

YEOM DONG-HA

Would you know if I tell you?

Yeom Dong-ha.

It's the same!

Yeom Dong-ha!

KILLED IN ACTION

You're dead.

KILLED IN ACTION

I'm dead.

Why don't the three of us just attack the command center?

-There are only two people. -One of us has to watch the hostage.

We can just let him be dead.

If not, Your Majesty can watch over him

Kim Hang Ah and I...

If things go wrong and both of us die,

what can he do alone?

Why don't you just focus on setting it up?

Ri Kang Seok, are you done paying for your sin?

KILLED IN ACTION

Because of me,

our team lost ten points already.

Still, I have come the furthest I can.

If you want to go back,

you'll need three hours.

Three hours.

Get off.

Hands up.

Turn around.

They aren't coming out.

They're hiding in there like moles.

We have 20 minutes left before the mission is over.

Let's just start.

We haven't set up the explosives at the command center, have we?

If you talk to them to get them out,

I'll try doing it.

But the time...

We have 20 minutes left.

We can do it.

Please come out.

Please put on the translating device.

I've captured one of your people.

For the price of not killing our team in three hours,

I didn't take his life either.

But we took away all his weapons.

Let's negotiate a settlement.

Come out, all of you.

You have fewer people than we do, but we're not going to fire.

Act boldly like an officer

who represents the world's strongest country, the US.

Why did you come out alone?

And...

We let the air out and drowned it in the sea.

And we kept the motor safe elsewhere.

There are no rules saying we have to keep the boat in one piece.

Right?

Just get started.

Start from the communications center.

What?

What about the command center?

Won't you surrender?

The boat is gone, so there's no way to get out.

Just surrender.

I said to just get started at the same time.

You're at a disadvantage now.

Your soldiers are dead or separated.

You have only two left.

That's right.

But what if all your command center,

supply route, and communication center are destroyed?

What will happen?

You will lose by the principle of incapacitation.

Is that right?

It's the same in this competition.

WOC COMMUNICATION CENTER

Charlie.

Charlie.

You won't be able to reach him.

Didn't you see the communication center being blown up?

There was an inspection when we got in.

How do you think we brought bombs?

But you remember what the HQ said, right?

We can use anything we find here.

We only made use of a little of your gas fuel.

Hang Ah, can you hear me?

A game?

We're very serious.

The ones we love and the throne are on the line.

Have you been separated from your family before?

People who shared the same language and culture for thousands of years

were split in half in an instant.

Because of a war that lasted for three years,

we lost all our parents and siblings.

Have you ever experienced any of that?

To you,

things like this could just be a game,

but we're very desperate to win.

Okay.

Your communication network has been cut off.

The supply room would soon go off too.

WOC SUPPLY ROOM

Surrender before we blow up your command center.

Comrade Lee Jae-ha.

Comrade Lee Jae-ha?

Hang Ah,

we can do this.

Still...

Remember. It can never be later than 8 p.m.

If they don't surrender,

press the button before 8 p.m., no matter what.

You know,

the key to this plan is teamwork.

If we don't trust each other, we can't succeed.

I'm going to win.

I will go back with you

and get engaged to you.

If you feel the same,

press the button before 8 p.m.

Trust me.

And...

I will trust you.

Promise me.

If you love me, press the button.

I...

love...

Comrade Lee Jae-ha.

WOC COMMAND CENTER

Comrade Lee Jae-ha.

Comrade Lee Jae-ha!

Don't you hear me?

Comrade Lee Jae-ha!

Comrade Lee Jae-ha!

You can't go in! It's dangerous!

Comrade Lee Jae-ha!

You're so loud.

Why are you crying? Did someone die?

You're really...

You really won't trust me, will you?

They blew up bombs in the tournament?

They didn't break the rules.

But some say it's against the intentions of WOC

which is a friendly game.

So it's under discussion at the HQ.

Anyway, the first round finished successfully, right?

Just tell them to come back safely.

And...

What about Club M?

It has been settled.

All right. Thanks for the hard work.

Settled?

I heard you set her free, because you lost in the power struggle?

Jae-shin. If it weren't for him,

this issue wouldn't have been settled.

He went there himself and apologized in our place.

So why did he apologize to scumbags like them?

Didn't you hear what they said during the press conference?

Something about tragedy and consideration...

Jae-shin.

Who do you think is the one who caused all this?

It's them, isn't it?

Lee Jae-shin!

How dare them?

Even if we're powerless...

What about you? You were shaking in fear.

Apologize to him immediately.

Not because you're a princess. You're just being disrespectful.

How can you be so rude to an elder?

It's all right, Your Highness.

I'm sorry.

You've been doing everything in my place.

I shouldn't have said that.

I only did what I needed to do.

It's been a good experience for me.

My son has learned a lot through this too.

Your son?

Eun Shi-gyeong went to apologize as well?

Why is someone like you

working under Lee Jae-ha?

He's incorrigible.

Which jerk is that...

Did you ask for me?

The one you met this morning was John Mayer.

He is the person who killed Jae-kang, right?

I will start my treatment again.

Actually I find it very tough, so I stopped counseling.

But I'll start that again.

I'll try to remember, so...

It's fine, Your Highness.

If it's too hard,

you don't need to continue.

Are you giving up on me?

What?

No, I'm not. I just...

I like you.

I like the most boring man in the world,

the Captain of the Second Company of the Royal Guards.

Say something.

It seems like...

you're very uneasy.

If people...

feel mentally weak--

Yes.

I've become weak.

I want to keep you by my side.

I want to whine to you, play pranks on you,

and provoke you to a quarrel.

I realized it just now.

I like this person.

So don't give up on me.

I'll be brave like you.

I will become a woman who's right for you, Shi-gyeong.

Please wait and see.

It has already been three days.

When will the HQ reach a decision?

I have no idea.

They told us to be creative and use things we find.

This is a friendly game.

We are letting all our opponents sleep in our lodge.

What more do they want?

Of course, that's what we should do.

We have blown up their command center and supply room.

-Here. It's done. -It smells good.

-It's meat. -It looks great.

It's good.

Hey.

What are you doing? The meat isn't enough.

Comrade Kim Hang Ah.

Comrade Kim Hang Ah.

Hang Ah.

-You shouldn't do that. -We don't have enough meat.

Please have these.

You're so big, and these are just tiny plastic bags of food.

Will that even fill you up?

We will make your meals from now on,

so please put in a good word for us to the HQ.

All right?

You have desserts even during a war?

Look at this! This is great.

There are biscuits and gums as well.

This is the US army's fast food.

I haven't eaten this for a long time.

This rascal!

Just say something.

Have some manners. Be friendly.

Where did the princess go?

She went off an hour ago.

She asked me to clear her schedule.

I think she's doing that because of stress.

Yes, anyone can suffer any tragedy.

The problem is the attitude with which you overcome the tragedy.

The royal family of South Korea

is oversensitive with their own tragedies.

They were even discourteous to VIPs.

They have lost their basic dignity and courtesy.

The royal family is the country.

South Korea isn't prepared yet.

They haven't reached the standard

to change the cease-fire agreement to a peace agreement.

Although this isn't scheduled, we have an important guest.

She's Princess Lee Jae-shin.

No. Why is she there?

THE KOREAN PENINSULA PEACE JEJU FORUM

I'm Lee Jae-shin, who had a panic attack

at the venue where I invited my VIP guests.

My condition wasn't too good then,

but it would all be excuses anyway.

I'm sorry about that.

But, I think Mr. John Mayer of Club M

doesn't have manners either.

Standard, you said?

How can an individual talk about standards to a sovereign state?

Frankly, we are a country where a war can break out any time.

People who have grown up in such a country

always live in a situation of extreme anxiety,

and have a strong sense of combat.

Even for games, we are attracted to violent war games.

Even when we play Go-Kart,

we have to load weapons in the car.

That's why we need to have the peace agreement.

We can't allow our children to live in that anxiety and uneasiness forever.

And, about peace.

Like Mr. John Mayer said,

it's not something gained all at once.

It's something that you work on little by little.

I can stand only for about ten minutes now.

But once I get used to it, I will be able to stand up for good.

The same goes for our country.

Currently, in Korea, Republic of Korea,

for the sake of living in a country without war,

we take part in the WOC joining hands to work

towards the goal of peace.

But in order to do so,

we need your help.

Just the way I needed the aid of my walking stick as I got up.

we need the support and encouragement

of all nations across the world.

Please watch us.

We will work hard for that.

THE KOREAN PENINSULA PEACE JEJU FORUM

She's my daughter.

Isn't it all stated clearly in the handbook?

If you look over here...

Where?

-It's over here. -Right.

Article Three.

All military strategies are applicable during the WOC.

Article Three, Clause Three.

By the principle of incapacitation,

when a team destroys the main facilities

including a communication center, supply room, or command center,

if they don't hurt anyone with malicious intent,

the team wins.

So did he die? Didn't we save him?

And the King did it himself.

He also asked him to stay away from the wall.

Isn't that very creative?

What's the thing that the West Point always emphasizes?

Isn't it creativity?

How would you explain trespassing past the iron fencing?

So did they trespass?

They thought about doing it,

but stopped.

They also deflated and hid the boat.

They used a loophole in the rules.

The North and South cunningly used this to their advantage.

Cunningly?

Are you insulting us now?

I'm just being objective.

We don't really like the US either.

Have you thought about why we are siding the US?

You're doing that because you don't like

the unification of the North and South.

You want us to stay in the middle

and serve as your bumper zone.

If you want to fight, fine.

Just don't get us involved.

Are you all set?

-Yes. -Yes.

Hold on.

Our boat comes in 30 minutes.

I'm aware of that,

but why would you keep waiting, standing in the sea breeze?

We still have space. Let's go together.

-Come on! -Let's go together!

-Let's take the boat back together! -Let's take this back!

Come on!

I heard it was just one vote difference.

It was so close, right?

Let's go back quickly.

Let's exchange.

Change with yours.

-Let's go. -Thank you.

The North and South team who was on a winning streak at the WOC

Unfortunately failed to win in the semifinals.

But In the preliminaries, the North and South team

beat the strongest country in the world, the US.

With winning momentum, during the quarter-finals,

they beat the Russia team easily.

But in the semifinals, they lost to Egypt for no specific reason.

With that, the North and South team was placed in fourth

after Egypt, England and China.

I think we were overly proud of our winning streak.

Still, it was our first time. Isn't it great that we took fourth place?

As promised, we got into the second round.

What? Engagement?

That's...

We will get engaged.

She's my fiancée now.

Is that so? We should congratulate you then.

It's too full. Come on.

Cheers.

Goodness. Look how happy they are.

Let's drink.

When is he coming back?

Phone.

When His Majesty returns, a lot of people will come out.

So, this way. And the press conference...

Yes?

Hello, Eun Shi-gyeong.

I'm your rotten cookie.

Leave the room for a moment.

How did you get my number?

Why do you like Lee Jae-ha?

He and I,

well, we're the same in a way.

There's just a slight difference.

But, why did you...

Hello?

ROTTEN COOKIE

If you have some business, call the Chief Secretary.

Hold on.

You trust your father?

Blind faith is poison.

A son needs to surpass his father.

Kim Bong-gu asked to meet me?

Yes, he wants to meet you at the airport.

-But, I think... -I have to meet him.

Don't meet him.

It's okay.

I will be careful.

He should be very heated because of the WOC and Jae-shin's speech.

Maybe he'll do something.

He's not someone I can deal with in one blow.

Still...

I will accept his invitation to meet.

Why did that rascal call you?

I wonder too.

-When we went there... -He asked me to work for him.

He's insane.

He didn't say anything this time as well?

No, I put him through to you right away.

I heard you have a son.

What happens if he finds out that we're chummy?

You trust your father?

Blind faith is poison.

Congratulations.

You did better than expected.

You're stingy with your compliments.

Was it only better than you expected?

Did you anticipate my compliments?

To think that you pay so much attention to me.

This is an honor.

I was curious about your reaction.

If you're forced into a corner, will you stamp with fury or back down?

But, it seems like you've become calm.

Let's stop this.

Why should we keep this psychological warfare going?

It's just tiring.

So, we...

Fine, let's say it was my fault

and stop this.

What?

You killed a person and simply say that you are sorry?

Yes, you must be upset.

But we lost a lot because of this.

It's more than 100 billion.

It's not 100 billion won, but dollars.

Do you think your brother's life was even worth 100 billion dollars?

It doesn't even come close.

So I'll just accept my loss.

Let's call it even.

Your brother and 100 billion dollars.

Hey, Kim Bong-gu--

Through this, I learned that you're very honest.

So, I realized...

that this rascal is like me.

He's the same kind of person I am.

That's why I was so bothered about him.

You said it yourself when you sent me the present.

You shot at your own woman.

So is that why you shot that woman too?

Because you want to become like me?

I'm of a higher standard than you.

Because it was a real bullet.

That's right. You and me...

Well, we are similar.

But,

I know what embarrassment is.

I can't hurt my own people.

I can't shoot at Hang Ah like that.

At least I reflect on my actions.

But, what about you?

What's wrong with you suddenly?

Don't do that.

You're just a snob like me.

Yes, I am a snob.

But, I said I have basic conscience.

But what are you?

Me?

A businessman.

No, you're not.

A businessman also has the basic business ethics.

But you don't even have such things.

You just see yourself.

You eat when you feel like eating and shit when you feel like shitting.

Haven't you seen something similar to that before?

Dogs and pigs.

Don't they do that too?

They eat and shit anywhere, bite and fight with each other.

But they have no shame.

So, do you want to continue fighting?

I wanted to let you off too.

I have lots of work and I thought of coming to a certain compromise.

But, I can't allow that for you.

So you want to keep on fighting?

No, I intend to ignore you.

I intend to just walk my path quietly.

If I fight you, I would also become a beast.

Then, everything would break down.

Your engine...

I got it.

You are getting engaged to Kim Hang Ah soon.

Congratulations.

Is that a forewarning? You intend to attack the engagement venue?

Enjoy the engagement party with a peaceful mind,

Your Majesty.

Yes, go ahead.

There's nothing unusual.

It's more peaceful than I thought.

You need to be more careful in such situations.

Don't let your guard down.

Today, the economic impact caused by the engagement party

could be estimated to reach about 40 trillion won.

This an amount much more than the 2002 world cup or the G20 summit

that increases the country's credit rating to AA.

Due to the tension of the North and South

our country has been set aside as Korea Discount.

With the engagement between the North and South,

it has been transformed to be Korea Premium.

The ranking of the country's image has also risen five levels higher.

For the first time in history, we are among the top ten.

Now, King Lee Jae-ha and Miss Kim Hang Ah

are coming into the engagement venue.

-Congratulations. -Congratulations.

Your Highness! Are you all right?

I'm fine.

I should have checked it out properly.

Please help me.

One, two, three.

Once again.

One, two, three.

Jae-ha. Hang Ah.

I will definitely attend your wedding.

All right.

These are all people of Lee Jae-ha.

Who should I choose?

No. One isn't enough.

I'll sweep them all.

Now, we will start the engagement vows.

Will it be fine if I do it this way?

Yes.

All right.

Not long ago, we found something precious

in the secretarial office of the royal family.

Before his accident, the late king wrote the engagement vows himself

and he filmed himself as the officiant.

We will use the film today during the vows

to commemorate the late king

who worked so hard for this engagement.

Do you, Lee Jae-ha of Republic of Korea

promise to agree to disagree,

honor and respect

Kim Hang Ah of North Korea

as your partner for your whole life?

I do.

Do you, Kim Hang Ah of North Korea

promise to be faithful

to the duties of a queen

and strive towards a common good

for the two nations?

I do.

Lastly,

as this engagement represents the North and South,

I will ask for another vow.

Lee Jae-ha of Republic of Korea

and Kim Hang Ah of the Democratic People's Republic of Korea.

Do the two of you promise to strive

to achieve a war-free Korea?

That even in the face of an unavoidable war,

both of you will combine forces

until the last moment and stop it?

Great! Let's continue!

Will both of you say yes?

Yes.

I promise.

Isn't that nice?

Your Majesty.

Please do not forgive me.

If it's something strange, let me be the first to know.

I will accept any and all punishment.

You're a traitor.

Aiding and abetting the late king's murder. You traitor!

Where is the king that I know and serve?

-Why? You feel like punching me? -Yes.

How do I retrieve that memory?

Are you scared?

I'm scared of everyone except you.

I don't trust people anymore.

You can do this sincerely, right?

Be careful.

Do you think I'll fall for your lies again?

Mom and Hang Ah are both missing?

Did Bong-gu do this?
