All language subtitles for Song of the Bandits E08 - Episode 8

Do they have any idea
how much this is worth?

Mr. Yamada! What are you doing right now?

Mr. Hashimoto! Move this with me quickly!

Come on!

We don't have time for this, Mr. Yamada!

You have to go and handle the situation!

The Japanese Army and police are angry
and shooting at each other,

and now with the Joseon people involved,
it's utter chaos!

So, how am I supposed to handle this?

Even Superintendent Ōoka was shot
and seriously injured.

If we don't find out what exactly
is going on here, we'll also die.

That…

How… how do we move that?

That's the most expensive thing here.

Don't back out. Make a decision!

I can't do it…

Mr. Yamada!

That's it.

Let's leave it up to him. And not me.

Jang Ki-ryong.

SONG OF THE BANDITS

Hold your fire!

I will kill him myself.

Halt!

Being here with you like this
suddenly reminds me

of Gurye 11 years ago.

You're right.

If you had just stayed by my side,
doing what I told you to do,

it would've saved us this trouble.

I really tried to do that.

But I just couldn't stand it.

It was a heck of a time, you see.

You and that trap of yours.

I'll send you off without pain.

This is the last present
that a young master can offer his slave.

Shit!

I can't kill you.

I wanted to kill you so badly,
and I was about to…

but I can't.

You'll never hold a gun
with your right hand again.

So stop harassing your compatriots

and live as Lee Gwang-il, the Joseon-born,

and not Shohei Miura,
the Japanese soldier.

Be the kind person you used to be…

before you put on that uniform.

Got that?

I didn't…

I didn't remember him.

I even told him to come back alive.

He's the man who saved my life
so many times.

And yet, even though
I spent many days with him,

it didn't come to me.

I can't let him go like this.

Please stop the car.

-I can't let him die alone like this.
-No.

You don't have to do that.

Give us the order, sir.

Hold your fire.

We'll capture him alive.

Capture him alive?

Why are you letting that prick live?

If I tell you to capture him alive,
then capture him alive!

That's an order.

An order?

Damn it!

Miura, have you gone haywire or something?

Hey.

Watch your mouth, Ishida.

I'm your superior officer.

I'm sick and tired of treating
a stupid Joseon scum like you

as my superior officer!

Just die with your damn friend.

We came to retrieve independence funds
from an unidentified individual.

Did you think we were unprepared?

Have faith in us.

We are, after all…

All troops!

Aim at the two Joseon dogs!

…the Independence Army.

Fi…

All troops! Fall back!

Run!

You'll also die if you stay here.
Run away!

Let go, asshole!

Gwang-il!

Go and don't ever think
about coming back, you idiot.

Damn it.

This is where I say goodbye.
My comrade will escort you to the station.

Please put it to good use
for our independence.

Yes, we will.

Thank you for your hard work.

I'll see you back
in our liberated homeland.

Sir!

I'm sorry, but could you do me a favor?

Collect only the guns and ammunition!

Move as swiftly as possible!

Yes, sir!

You must be Comrade Seon-bok's friend.
Are you hurt?

I'm all right.

I'm sure our men are safely escorting
the lady you came with.

Don't worry too much.

Sure.

You're still here.

Thank God.
I was worried that I might be late.

Comrade Nam asked me to give you this.

She wanted to give it to you herself
but didn't have the chance.

I am writing this letter to tell you
how I have felt until now.

When I first arrived in Gando,

I felt hope in this free and lively city

that I could not imagine in Gyeongseong.

However, only a few days passed

before I realized
that the hope was an illusion.

The free and lively city was not ours,

and I saw with my own eyes
that there was no such thing as hope

for the Joseon people.

I was so scared and afraid.

I felt like I was to blame
for their deaths.

I felt so helpless
that I held no power to match my beliefs.

That is when I met you.

Who are you?

I was mired in despair,

resentment, and a sense of defeat.

But you were the one who taught me
the most important lesson.

Right now, it really is bleak,
and you can't see anything here.

Your words made me realize that

if I give up
just because I can't see hope,

I'd have to live in darkness forever.

So, from now on,

I'll dream of hope in my heart
but exercise patience.

And I'll continue to fight until the day
Joseon gains its independence.

I hope and pray

that your wish of having your own home
on your own land

will also soon come true.

Until we meet again,

I will remember all the moments
you and I shared.

Thank you for your help.
I'll see you when our paths cross again.

Have you ever thought about
joining the Independence Army?

I have a lot to protect
besides the country. Goodbye.

Don't tell me you're going to Myeongjeong.

It's too dangerous to go there right now.

I still have to go.
My family is waiting for me.

All right! Let's move!

Yes, sir!

You should retreat now.

We'll take it from here.

Okay.

Eon-nyeoni, this is our fight.

Not yours.

So you can stop now and get out of here.

What are you on about?

I'm not leaving until this fight ends.

I don't care if I die here…

Listen to me!

How could you think of dying here,
you idiot?

Mr. Choong-soo.

What is the matter with you?

Why do you keep telling me
to play the bad guy?

Leave now,

or else I'll kill you first.

Mr. Choong-soo…

We're not desperate enough to ask for help
from a girl who kills for petty cash.

So get lost now!

You're going too far.

Fine, then.

You can die alone.

Such a rotten brat.

-How's it going?
-It's dangerous. Stop moving around!

I was sending Yoon off. Fuck. I'm tired.

I'm out of ammo!

-Get me ammo!
-Ammo?

-Hurry up!
-Oh fuck!

-Bullets!
-You son of a bitch!

Dude! Byeong-man, where are you off to?
You fucking…

You're dead now.

I can do this…

all day long!

-San-gun.
-I told you to stop moving around!

I brought you ammo, asshole!

-Oh, right.
-Here.

Right.

Aw, my legs…

Wait. This is it?

I barely managed to find those.
Don't waste them.

I've still got tons to kill!

Then use them wisely, damn it!

What the…

What is it?

Two? Isn't that cheating?

I only have one.

Fucking son of a bitch!

Sniper!

Don't move, Seon-bok.

Where is he?

Find him quickly.

Fuck.

-You can't see him?
-I can't.

Look carefully!

Shit.

I'm fucked.

Where are you, boss?

Found you, you fucker.

You found him? Where is he?

Where?

-Put your hands up.
-Why?

Just put them up.

Why?

Are we fucked?

Lee Yoon.

Where is he?

Where is Lee Yoon?

Damn, what should I do?

Hey.

You make the call.

Should we go back or not?

What was I expecting?

Are we really going back like this?

I have no idea, so don't ask me.

Yes, sir.

Damn.

Stop. Don't do anything rash.

I can't just sit and watch that shit.

There is nothing we can do right now.

Just wait until the right moment comes.

Hey. You make it sound like it's nothing.

All those people over there
are your villagers.

You should go and rescue them,
not wait until the right moment--

I want to save them more than you do.
Can't you see that?

Do you think you're being brave?

This isn't bravery. It's bravado.

Don't be so reckless.

In this situation,
you'll only die in vain.

Don't be so pathetic.
There's no way I'm going to die.

Do you think you're still alive
because you're skilled?

-You're just lucky. Don't you know that?
-No. I don't.

If you're gonna keep blabbering on,
just piss off.

I have to save Mr. Choong-soo.

I see you want to save him
because you feel indebted to him,

but remember that your life
is also precious.

If you die, you'll only break his heart.

Follow me.

What do you mean?

You want full authority over the captives?

The general wishes to take this chance

and completely wipe out their hideout,
the village of Taepyeong-dong.

However, as you are also aware,
Mr. Yamada, we don't--

You don't know the exact location
of Taepyeong-dong.

I heard that nobody knows where it is
ever since Nodeoksan died.

And even among the Joseon people,
there are barely a handful who do.

Indeed, you're right.

That is why we're asking you to delegate
full authority over them to us.

They will never give up the location
of their village with just a few threats.

You know that as well as we do.

But is this really necessary?

We can just punish a few of the leaders
and call it a day.

That is unacceptable.

We fulfilled your request,

so it's time for you to fulfill ours,
Mr. Yamada.

That is how we maintain trust
with each other.

Wouldn't you agree?

Why do you want to attack Taepyeong-dong?

I'm going to kill him.

Lee Yoon.

Because we must capture
and kill their ringleader.

The Gando branch manager
of my organization lives here.

But we can use it for now.

He was shot by some lunatic
and was hospitalized, you see.

I urged him to tell me who the shooter
was, but he wouldn't say a word.

He's worried that
it would put me in danger.

If I get my hands
on whoever that son of a bitch is,

I'm going to crush him into dust.

I calmed down
and stepped back like you wanted,

so tell me your plan.

What do we do?

First, we wait until sundown.

The poor visibility
will act to our advantage.

And then?

While one distracts Jang Ki-ryong,

the other goes into the police station
and rescues everyone.

Then the more skilled person
should distract them.

The longer that person can hold out,
the more time we have for the rescue.

Fine. I'll be the distraction, then.

No, I'll do that.

You rescue the people.
That's much more important.

Hey. I just can't trust you.

What if you die in less than five minutes?

Then there will be bandits and police
waiting for us to come out.

That would be the end for all of us.

That won't happen.

How are you so sure?

You know how good I am.

Are you bragging right now?

Gosh, way to blow your own trumpet
out of the blue.

It was so random that I almost agreed.

Do you know what I feel like
when I talk to you?

What?

All right.

I'll fetch ammo from Seon-bok's storage,
so get some shut-eye.

God knows how long you've been awake.

And thanks.

For what?

I was able to keep my promise
to Ms. Hee-shin, thanks to you.

And thanks for not leaving Mr. Choong-soo
and staying by his side.

Get some sleep.

We have received

full authority over your treatment
from Consul Yamada.

We only want one thing from you.

The location

of your village, Taepyeong-dong.

That fucker wants us to reveal
the location of Taepyeong-dong.

Whoever answers our question will live.

And those who don't will die.

They'll kill us if we don't tell them.

Listen to me, all of you!

Even if

every single one of us has to die here,

we must protect…

we must protect our families.

Do not fall for their--

Sir!

You.

Tell me where Taepyeong-dong is.

Wait for your turn, old man!

Tell me!

Where is Taepyeong-dong?

Shut up, son of a bitch!

Cheon-man!

Cheon-man!

Tell me where Taepyeong-dong is.

You son of a bitch!

Dude. Are you going to tell them?

You know I'm terrible with directions.

I bet I'd get lost
on my way to the underworld.

Let's go together. I'll show you the way.

I've had enough of you, asshole!

Are you going to tell him?

Fuck, what's the point
of living without you guys?

Just take me with you
to the fucking underworld.

Oh, Geumsu. Geumsu, no!

Tell me where Taepyeong-dong is.

Come closer.

Then I'll tell you.

You're a little coward, aren't you?

Come here, now.

I'll tell you if you come closer.

Go ahead.

Jackass, what do you take me for?

I will tell you!

-No, Nam-chun!
-No!

-No!
-You'll get us all killed!

I'll tell you where our village is.

Gramps!

So please let me

and my daughter Ye-bun live.

Nam-chun!

-Nam-chun!
-What are you saying?

You be quiet, Choong-soo!

Nam-chun!

What's wrong with you?

This is all because of you, Choong-soo!

I told you not to get involved in this.

I told you to stop worrying about Yoon
and protect our village instead!

Look at us now!

What is all this?

Look at the mess we're in
because of you and Yoon.

Hey.

I will guide you to Taepyeong-dong myself,

so will you… will you please…

No!

-Gramps.
-Don't!

I'll lead you to our village.

I'll take you through all the shortcuts
and get you there in a jiffy.

So, please, my dear Ye-bun,

please spare her life.

If that poor thing dies,
I'll never be able to live on.

Please save her.

Please…

Tonight,

we will leave for Taepyeong-dong with him.

-Put the rest of them in jail.
-Yes, sir.

-You damn little…
-Don't do it!

Damn you!

Don't resent me, Choong-soo.

What do we do to save the peach tree?

We get rid of the plum tree.

That old fucker!

They all got caught.

Mister, is it true?

Did you find out who killed my parents?

What's that bastard's name?

That's no way to speak about your elders.

It turns out he's a virtuous man.
An honorable member of the gentry.

A virtuous man, my ass.

What kind of virtuous bastard
kills people so violently?

Being a learned nobleman,
loyal to the country to the death,

he had no choice but to join
the punitive army against Donghak.

After your parents died,
he retired immediately out of guilt.

He withdrew from public office
and lived in seclusion in his hometown.

But curses,

then we lost our country to the Jappos.

That's when he started leading
the Righteous Army in Jeolla.

Of course, his army suffered
a crushing defeat eventually.

I'm not interested
in that asshole's life story.

What I want to know is his name.

Just tell me his name. I'm busy.

I don't know his name either,
but I found out his nickname.

Whenever he stepped onto the battlefield,
no one could stand against him.

Hence his nickname…

the Invincible General.

What's wrong with you? Are you okay?

Get ready. The sun's down.

A Type 14 Nambu?

Why are you putting the silencer on?

Change of plans.

Let's go in together
without anyone being a distraction.

You mean just charge in and do a sweep?

Would that work?

I saw a lot of mounted bandits.

They're all going to leave soon

because Nam-chun turned traitor.

For us.

Wait a second.

Who did what for us?

What are you talking about?

The plum tree takes the fall
instead of the peach tree.

It's a tactic called "Idaedogang."

More than ten years ago, when Nam-chun
and I were in the Righteous Army,

it was also our secret code.

So, what is this "Idae" or whatnot?

Can you explain it so we can understand?

Let's say we are in a battle,

and we fall into the Jappos' trap
and end up being captured…

And in danger of being massacred.

Then, like how a plum tree takes the fall
instead of a peach tree,

one of us will make a noble sacrifice…

To save the rest.

Idaedogang.

Mr. Choong-soo often talked about it.

So, Ye-bun's dad
turned traitor on purpose?

For us?

What the heck is that man thinking?

He's probably trying to lure
Jang Ki-ryong out of Myeongjeong.

If he tells them he'll show them the way
to Taepyeong-dong,

the mounted bandits
would leave town for a while,

and Myeongjeong would be left
with the minimum number of troops.

Then…

Then?

Then we have to get out of here.

By all means.

Wait. Even if Jang's gang isn't here,

we're all locked up and unarmed,
so how do we do that?

Nam-chun sacrificed his life
to give us this chance.

He stepped up to save us,
knowing it would cost him his life.

Run away quickly, Choong-soo. Quickly!

So, you fools, we should risk our lives
and at least try something…

We don't know

how long they will be fooled
by Nam-chun's lies.

Before Jang catches on and returns…

We have to finish the job quickly.

-Secretly.
-And swiftly.

-We rescue--
-We escape from here.

Hey, you.

Where are you headed?

You're taking us northeast right now.

Huh?

Why would Taepyeong-dong be in Manchuria?

What the hell are you yapping about?

I don't understand a word you're saying.

Wait, Kimura.

General.

We'll soon come to a crossroads
that leads to Yanji and Dexin.

If he turns toward Yanji,
he's been lying to us this whole time.

But if he chooses Dexin…

If he turns to Dexin, we will pass Zhixin
and go toward Hoeryŏng,

heading back down south again.

That's right.

So just wait until then.

For now, he's the only one we have.

Hey. Come here. Show me your face.

If we want to rescue them safely,
we have to take those men down first.

-You can do it, right?
-Of course, I--

You know, you're really getting
on my nerves with your tone.

Why are you talking like you're the boss?

I never accepted you as my boss.

I did?

If you want to get this job done,

you follow my orders,
not the other way around.

Understood?

Okay, sure.

Then give your order.

If we want to rescue them safely,

we have to take those men down first.

You can do it, right?

Just do it.

That's my order.

Come on!

We're going for a smoke.

Yes, sir. Enjoy your time.

-What?
-Seon-bok.

-What's wrong, Seon-bok?
-Are you okay?

Are you all right?

Her wound must be infected.

Don't just stand there!
Are you going to let her die?

Dude!

Get over here! Someone's dying!

Hurry up!

You fucker!

Shut up!

I'm sorry!

It hurts!

Get in here now!

Hey, she's dying!

I feel like I'm dying!

Damn it.

What is it?

It hurts right here.

It hurts!

I'm dying! I really am!

It hurts!

You punks.

Do I look that stupid to you?

Die, all of you!

Uncivilized Joseon dogs.

Hey!

What the hell do you want?

We're sorry.

Sorry. You fucker!

Shut it!

Give it up, asshole!

The moment you shoot,
run over and grab the body

so the thud doesn't carry inside.

I'm the one giving orders.

The moment you shoot, run over
and grab the body to prevent the thud.

I'm asking this purely out of curiosity.

How old are you?

Old enough.

And I've killed enough too.

Happy?

Up there. You get him.

I slipped. The ground was slippery.

Hey, shithead!

Get the keys! Unlock it quickly!

Hold your ground!

You damn fools!

I can't believe you Joseon dogs.

No point in waiting any longer!

Finish these clowns off!

You again?

Yeah, it's me.

Boss!

Yoon!

Oh fuck. I thought I was going to croak.

Yanji and Dexin.
Which way do we need to go?

DEXIN

YANJI

Yap on all you like.

I don't understand you, so just follow me.

Togu.

Why did you fool us?

Why did you bring us here?

Time.

He's buying time!

Time for the bandits to escape from jail.

There are only consulate police
in Myeongjeong right now.

Turn your horses around!

We're going back to Myeongjeong.

-Yes, sir.
-Yes, sir!

You can stay here.

If you're lucky, you'll bleed to death.

If not, the beasts will feast on you.

My daughter…

Take care of her, Choong-soo.

It's about time you showed up.

Sorry I'm late.

Yoon.

Gosh…

Why did you come all the way back here?

You should have flown away
when you had the chance.

I'm sorry for putting you
through something like this.

You don't say things like that
between family.

Don't worry about it.

Nam-chun sacrificed himself

to save us.

Yes, I saw it too.

I will save him however I can.
You should get yourself together and--

You're surrounded!

-What's going on?
-Surrender!

Lights out and stay down.

Surrender, all of you!

If you refuse to do so,
you'll be punished in the name of justice!

We will wipe you out!
