Excuse me

Is it Siberia?

I heard they've started withdrawing troops, so I've been waiting for him.

Finally, he's back now.

That place must be really cold.

In the letter,

He said tears and urine are freezing.

Why fight in such a place?

Russia wants to create a country without rich-poor disparities,

while Japan wants to destroy it.

It's a terrible war.

There's no such thing as a positive war.

However,

his sacrifice is very honorable, right?

Yes, it's a glorious sacrifice.

I am En'no Den of Chiba Nichinichi. I hope for your kind assistance today.

He fought for the country.

A glorious hero.

It should be in the newspaper.

Yukio, Yukio.

How did you die?

How did you end up in this little box?

Yukio.

You Should behave like a mother of a hero.

Stand up and welcome him with pride.

Are you Sawada?

It's been 20 years since we last met. Did you also take this train to come over?

Congratulations on becoming the village head.

The position that has been passed down is now vacant.

To be honest, I also want to go to Medical School.

No photos allowed, no photos allowed!

But it was agreed earlier that people were allowed to take pictures...

Wait until things settle down here, then take photos!

Please let me take a picture.

Is that person Hasegawa?

He's now the branch head of the local veterans' association.

He's found a suitable position.

The position that suits you should be a teacher, right?

I'm not a teacher anymore.

I just want to be an ordinary citizen.

Long time no see!

You rascal.

Didn't you perish in Korea?

The sun is so strong.

Wait, Nobu has left behind m

Didn't we already say our goodbyes properly?

After all, you'll be apart for half a year. It's a bit hard to let go.

If you don't make a promise now, during this time we're away for training,

Miyo might be taken away by other boys.

That means,

Nobu, hurry up!

Hurry up, hurry up!

Go quickly!

Go quickly, go quickly.

Go on.

So cute.

So cute.

I picked this up yesterday.

It's another amulet.

Don't move.

One day, it will protect you.

Let's go.

Goodbye.

thank you.

Here.

Wait a mininute.

How does she feel about Kurazou Yukari's death?

She wouldn't...

Very happy, would she?

Now she doesn't have to sneak around anymore.

Hey.

Come here to take a picture.

This is where everyone is gathered to welcome you.

Fune, cheer up!

Who are those two dressed like hunters?

It's Tomoichi from the Sadawa family.

He's back.

Is the woman next to him his wife?

It's not raining, why are they holding umbrellas?

Welcome, welcome. Come and take a look at the masks.

"As you can see, I am an evaluator!

Juicing ginger, adding brown sugar, then pouring hot water in can basically cure all colds

When you have a severe cough, drink some dried plantain tea.

But if the tonsils are swollen, it's troublesome, isn't it? What should be done if it causes gangrene?

Come, come and take a look!

Here are the all-purpose special medicines!

Loach, sword bean, loquat leaves, pine leaves, oranges, shoe fruits, and goldthread leaves.

These are all filled with precious medicinal herbs, super effective medicines.

Come on! While there's still stock, come and buy, come and buy!

What are you doing, silly child? Watch where you're going!

I'm sorry.

What's wrong? Aren't you eating?

Ah, he says he can't do it himself, he's really upset.

There's no need to get angry. Everyone is like that the first time they work.

Listen, those who don't work don't get to eat.

But I really want to...

Alright, that's enough from you.

Finally, the morning sickness stopped, and she can eat now.

After all, she has to eat for two people. No matter how much she eats, it's not too much.

I'll teach you some tips later. Eat up.

If Nobu can read and write, he'll definitely learn quickly.

What about you?

Is it true?

Nobu,

I can't read, I can't remember half of what's taught orally.

The fool is making the situation worse.

Alright, eat up.

It's really worrying.

You're still thinking about blending with Mayo In water and milk? You're just a little kid after all.

There is nothing between me and Miyo.

Oh, why are you getting upset again? Here, take it.

Eat.

Hello,

Is she Japanese?

Who will talk to her for a bit?

I want that umbrella too.

You're a farmer, when would you need to use such an umbrella?

Are you alone today too?

No, no, no

you can't do it like this.

Here,

give it to me.

Look, like this!

Bend down, bend.

See the weeds? Bend.

Don't fight with the soil.

It's just like dealing with your wife.

Bend down properly.

Your delicate hands can't do farm work.

You can't be a farmer

Sawada...

I'm asking you one more time,

Can you take up the teachers job?

Now is the era of good citizens and good soldiers,

We need to use education

to train good citizens into a good army.

I heard that they've started some kind of educational movement in the East.

They want children to grow freely,

instead of training them to be soldiers or officials.

Even if children can grow freely,

can they live freely as adults

if they end up being drafted into the army

and killed on the battlefield?

It doesn't make any sense.

What did you mean?

To avoid war and create an era of peace,

education is indispensable.

Don't send troops abroad anymore,

implement universal suffrage

only a society with freedom of speech, assembly, and association can be called democratic.

You're just spouting nonsense

as the son of a village head who doesn't worry about food and drink!

Such nonsense!

I already

I cannot be a teacher.

Why?

I thought finally, there's a friend who can talk.

That's enough!

With your limited eye vision, you can't be in army.

or be of any use!

What happened over there?

Let's go.

Right.

come over.

If people see us together, we might get in trouble.

The tofu didn't sell out,

I thought we could have it for lunch.

It's too wasteful to just throw it away like this.

I don't care what others say.

I'm already a peasant woman.

Yukiya might come back as a ghost to find you.

Stop lying.

It's true.

Stop talking nonsense.

Did I disturb you?

Looks like I did.

Where you wanna go?

I don't know where to go either.

Let's go to the guide first and then come back.

Isn't this a waste of time?

It's okay.

Is it a diamond?

that ring,

The dazzling diamond that can't be looked at directly,

The bridal sedan that can't be boarded,

It's "Golden Night Demon."

It seems you haven't heard of it.

This is Hakuji.

This white color can only be produced by North Korea.

Is North Korea a good place?

For Japanese, it is.

Some people are guessing, madam, whether you are Korean or not.

If I'm, what would you think?

I hate Koreans.

Why?

Koreans caused trouble in Noda's soy sauce factory and on the construction sites in Nagareyama.

What's the strike?

Isn't the strike because the Japanese are exploiting them as cheap labor?

They're so poor they can't even feed themselves, yet they come to Japan. They should be grateful just to have food to eat.

Do you know about the Toyo Takushoku?

I don't know.

It's a state-run company established by Japan in Korea.

They deceived the Koreans and took away Korean land.

And I am the daughter of the director of that company.

Then why did you come back?

It's because of the filling.

Huh?

Do you know a shop called Wakamatsu in Ginza?

Forget Ginza, I've never even been to Asakusa.

I really want to eat the dumplings from that shop.

When will

I be able to go to Ginza?

That's great.

It's fortunate that the lady is Japanese.

Jeongia.

It's the Korean pronunciation of "Shizuko."

Mrs. Shizuko

Boatman, you should close your eyes too.

My name is Kurazo.

Mr. Kurazo, close your eyes and let's get going.

If i close my eyes, the boat won't know where to drift.

What does it matter where it floats?

We don't have a destination anyway.

It's very comfortable.

Nao.

let's race to see who gets there first.

Don't say such things.

Listen to me.

You still have a long life ahead of you.

I'm here!

Takanami, where are you?

I'm here!

Let's go!

Hawa.

Onda.

What's up?

Rewrite the ending.

Huh?

Any unsolved violent homicide case must be written this way,

whether it's a socialist, a Korean, or an unknown person whoever did it.

How many times do I have to tell you for you to understand?

I won't.

What did you say?

In the newspapers, all terrorist incidents are written as being done by Koreans.

What will the readers who see these reports every day think?

Since the launch of the Long Live Independence movement in Korea,

you've been brainwashing the people, treating Koreans as vicious criminals, enemies of society.

What are you trying to do?

Why are you siding with the Koreans?

I just want to write the truth.

Among the Koreans, there are both good and bad people.

The same goes for the Japanese.

There are good and bad people everywhere.

Newspapers

must illuminate the dark paths for people.

That's what you told me when I was in the People's Social Department.

Okay, then I'll write it.

No,

I'm the one who makes the decisions.

Speaking of Zanyao is speaking of Shikoku, speaking of Shikoku is speaking of pilgrims.

The vast majority of pilgrims are suffering from an incurable disease like you.

They desperately seek help from gods and Buddhas.

But even if that's the case, you can't afford the cost of pilgrimage.

Thats why we come here from Sanuki.

This pill was discovered by Tuofa when he was seriously ill.

It can even save you from shocking diseases.

Although it can't make severed limbs grow back,

it can reduce swelling and repair ulcerated areas.

It can restore a fallen nose or mouth to its original state, and some have even regained their sight.

Really...?

Of course, I never lie.

Hey, Nobu, how many pills of medicine are left?

Oh no, not much left.

There are only three left.

Three? Just three left!

Did you hear that?

The last time we came here was already a year ago.

Can you wait that long?

Can you survive the freezing winter?

unfortunately,

I can only save three people from your group.

Who? Who is it?

Who doesn't want to die? Come, buy quickly, buy quickly.

See? This is business advice.

First say "there are only three left" to make them rush to buy,

then say "oh, there are more!" and take out more,

then say "I also have some in this bag!" and take out more.

I see.

Although they are a group of unfortunate people seeking warmth,

no one cares for them. In the end, only we want to help them.

I hope those people can recover soon.

Can that medicine really cure the disease?

If it really worked, who would go on a pilgrimage?

Are you deceiving them?

Illness comes from the mind.

Having a psychological comfort is better than having none.

For people like us,

we can only make a living by exploiting the weaker ones.

That's really despicable.

Consider it as redeeming oneself from sin

Welcome to the three visitors from Tanakamura!

Your son passed the first-level inspection, why are you still frowning?

He's my only son, taken away by the country. How can I be happy?

You shouldn't say that.

You don't have children, you don't understand.

This child is really beloved

Good girl, fortunately, you're a girl.

Sorry to disturb you.

Speaking of which, Village Chief,

Aren't you always talking about democracy?

Could you explain it to him?

How is democracy practiced in your village of Fukuda?

The first point of democracy is...

I'm tired of hearing about this democracy speech.

Is this the brave warrior who returned from Port Arthur?

Bureau Chief,

Tell the heroic tale to everyone in Tanakamura.

Let the young people remember the spirit of loyalty to the emperor.

It's Mr. Sada again. I was shocked the first time I heard it.

So it was Port Arthur. I thought it was the Russo-Japanese border.

So it was on the Japanese-Chinese side.

Sada, come on!

Come on, everyone is saying so.

Stand up, stand up.

Tell us! At this point, tell us!

Tell us about using bayonets to stab one after another of those Chinese.

Are the bodies on the road all the corpses of the Chinese slaves?

They were piled up until there was no way to pass.

It's these things! Tell us about it!

I almost died.

I came back alive.

I can't die.

I can't die.

No, if I die...

Ku

Number"

I'm sorry, but the old man's mind has been a bit unclear lately.

If I were to sacrifice myself for the country, I would not hesitate!

You little rascal, what big talk are you spouting!

Haha, this is a very ambitious aspiration.

No wonder you passed the first level.

In the army, there's no difference between the first and third levels.

What did you just say?

In the army, you're just being pushed around every day,

like you're there specifically to be pushed around for your teammates.

That's military life for you!

What's the meaning of this kind of military?

People like us are just here to take bullets.

Of course, it's to defend the country!

Do we have to die to defend the country?

What is the point of such a war?

What are you saying! You traitor!

What nonsense are you spouting in the local military association!

Even after retiring, you're still wearing your uniform.

Do you just love the military that much?

Are you missing the white rice from the military so much?

What are you saying!?

How dare you say that!

Taking advantage of her husband being sent to the army to make a move on his wife, you scoundrel!

Right, Saki?

Get him! Get him! Get him!

Hey! Stand up!

stand up!

adulterer!

Thief! Traitor!

Stop it! Hey, who's going to stop this!

Stop it! This is the Imperial Japanese Army Veterans Association in the countryside. Don't cause trouble here!

Stop! Stop it!

Who's laughing at him?

Who's looking down on me?

I... I'm really lonely.

My husband was taken away by the army, and I feel so lonely.

Hey, what are you saying!

If you knew your wife at home was having an affair,

who would still want to go to the army!

If Yukiya had been come back alive,

You would've gone jail for Adultery.

Get out!

Get out of my house!

What do you mean?

Who am I to you?

Not a wife?

You don't like me anymore?

You're tired of me?

I can't do it.

Why?

It's been like this since four years ago.

What happened four years ago?

Why won't you say a word?

Let's get a divorce.

Why divorce?

I don't know.

But..

Give me some more time.

Wait for me a little longer.

It's too late already!

Does it hurt?

Are you in pain?

Hasn't the mourning period not ended yet?

Then let him come and haunt me.

You should meet him too.

I'll tell him that Saki will be taken care of by me.

Really?

What's wrong?

He moved.

Really?

He's really conscious.

It can't be another boy, can it?

As long as it grows up healthy and happy, it doesn't matter if it's a boy or a girl.

Anyway, no one in that village will be happy, whether we live or died.

Will we be able to enter the Paradise after death?

(*Note: "Heta-do" refers to the outcast class segregated in Japan.) Even there, our Dharma name Heta-do will still discovered by someone.

Even after death, we're still "Heta-do."

How can something like that happen?

Everyone is working so hard for a better life.

We've been waiting for so long, for so long.

Dad, buy me some!

Buy me some North Korean candy!

Forget it, how could this stingy person buy it for you?

I'd like to have a taste occasionally too.

forget it.

I want to buy it for you, but I don't have money.

I can only get the money once I return to the village. I'm sorry.

All of you, forget it.

Why?

Who knows what's in the stuff the North Koreans sell.

That's right.

I can assure you that there's nothing bad in it.

Don't worry, don't worry

The plum has something bad mixed in it.

Really?

Thank you for your patronage. That'll be 15 yuan.

15 yuan? Give me 5 packs.

5 packs!

75 cents.

Later.

Since we're buying so much, can you give me a little extra?

The old man will scold me.

You,

Thanks.

Thank you for your patronage.

Let's go.

It's really good.

Is it delicious?

Delicious.

It looks like it might rain, doesn't it?

What’s wrong with you?

Isn't it something Mishi said?

What did I say?

Didn't you say something like this?

impure medicine being sold.

I don't know what's mixed in it.

It's my first time seeing a North Korean.

Don't say North Korean; say North Korean person.

Who do you think has a lower status, us or the North Koreans?

It doesn't matter who's superior or inferior.

If that's the case, then why are North Koreans...

Fool! Our status is definitely higher than that of North Koreans. Are you stupid?

Good.

Hello !

Candle, North Korean candle.

Are you giving it to me?

Then I'll accept it.

Thank you very much.

Thank you.

Let's go.

You worthless thing!

Where did you leave Ao!

Come here!

Tell me honestly!

Did you sell her?

That useless old horse.

What else can we do with it besides eating it?

Ao Aa.

Ao Aa.

How much have that horse contributed for us?

You spend the whole day just calling out Ao.

What did you say?

Compared to a useless son, even a horse would be much dearer.

What nonsense are you talking about?

What about the warrior who returned from Port Arthur?

Anyway, it's your useless son who has embarrassed you, right?

That's not true.

I'm not from the military.

I'm just a stable boy who takes care of the horses for the army.

In the military, they don't differentiate between black and white; they kill women, children, and the elderly.

I'm just the one who cleans up the bodies.

I wanted you to think highly of me,

so I told you some stories I heard from the military,

but I don't know when they spread throughout the entire village.

Is that so?

Huh?

I'm asking you, is that so?

Aren't you still hiding something from me?

Mizu

Take him outside.

what are you going to do?

You know it well.

I don't know.

Don't pretend with me!

Hey Takao, plug your ears.

This boy's father is you, right?

What......

He was born when I joined the army.

Where are you going?

I'm going to buy some wine

to offer to Aao.

Wait.

Aren't you going to explain yourself?

dad!

Dad, are you okay?

What are you doing there!

dad!

dad!

Sorry, ma'am.

What you've done is unusable.

Please redo it.

I've already done half of it.

Don't meddle in this.

Ma'am.

I heard you often go on Kurazō's boat.

What are you doing there?

Just running back and forth?

Kurazō said she's a good customer.

That child,

isn't he the spitting image of you?

So you mean

he looks like me and my old man too.

Where are you going?

I want to see who he looks like.

fool.

Hey, wipe his body clean.

Why don't you just go do it?

I'm sorry,

I'm sorry,

I'm sorry.

It's been almost half a year since I left the village.

This journey across the Tone River from Noda by boat is almost over.

It's my first time crossing the Tone River.

I haven't heard of this place, but it should sell well.

Noda is a town known for soy sauce, so it should sell and make a good profit.

Shinobu, come on.

Shinobu!

I’d like to encourage everyone and share my experience in training!

Alright.

Crossing the difficult mountain peak, what awaits us is an easy downhill road.

Everyone, follow me!

Crossing the difficult mountain peak,

what awaits us is an easy downhill road.

Pleasure is the essence of pain. Pain is the essence of pleasure.

Pleasure is the essence of pain. Pain is the essence of pleasure.

Stop it! Move over!

Homage to the great master, tHow much have they contributed to us?he universally illuminating vajra.

Peace.

It tastes like soy sauce!

The smell of soy sauce! The smell of soy sauce!

It smells so good.

Today we have mixed vegetables and bean sprouts,

not just any bean sprouts, but Japanese bean sprouts.

I miss it.

Why are we having Korean cuisine today?

I'm going out tomorrow.

Do you have a destination in mind?

It's raining.

I see.

Do you have any business?

We came from Sanuki to do business.

Choose from our finest medicine.

Would you like to take a look?

We're tired.

Sorry, this is all we can offer you.

Or do you prefer cold water...

No need, this is fine.

It's the first time I've seen someone Ask for hot water instead of tea.

But in the countryside,

one serves us tea.

thank you so much.

don't the people of Sanuki serve tea to their guests?

No, we're not royalty or nobles.

Here!

We have various medicines comparable to those from Toyama.

Please take a look.

How are these different from the ones in Toyama?

People from... from Sanuki don't charge for the medicine.

They leave the medicine and come back a year later

to collect payment based on how much was used.

Then they give new medicine.

But... but

But

if we don't get the money right away, we won't survive.

We are poor.

We don't have the capital like those in Toyama, but our medicine is definitely not inferior!

I'd like to buy.

But

What should I choose?

To be honest, I have confidence in all my products.

By the way,

That person

He has never been used to farm work.

He often complains of joint pain all over his body.

This medicine is quite effective in such cases.

It's famous for its "Master" book by Natsume Soseki, who suffered from various chronic illnesses.

It's a mineral bath agent extracted from the hot springs of Daigo.

Sold, sold!

Nobu?

Don't reveal your background, got it?

You said no one serves us tea.

If we were in the west, people would immediately know which village we're from.

If we keep this up

no one will buy our products.

Do you understand?

Once I've decided where to settle, I'll let you know. Please send my luggage over. - Shizuko

Where can this boat row to in the lake?

Who knows? It's such a small boat.

Anyway, let's get going.

Where to?

As far as we can go.

As far as we can go?

I'm not done yet

I forgot to return this wedding ring to him.

I ran away from home.

You don't wanna return?

The ring.

What should I do...?

How about I take you to your destination first, then give it to him?

Okay.

I'm worried I might lose it.

Even without diamonds, it's still dazzling...

Do you want it?

ring?

it's me.

Do you want me?

Is that okay?

Wait a moment.

I used to work as a railway train manufacturer.

I'm from a working-class background, so I was exiled by those intellectuals with university backgrounds.

Finally, I came here and ran a small but comprehensive union.

But, Mr Hiragsawa, you pioneered proletarian-themed drama.

It's nothing serious, just being praised by professor Kaoru Koyama.

Ordinary people don't know about my drama.

My level is not worthy of an interview.

She came all the way to the east for you ;

you have to chat seriously.

Do you know improvisation?

It's a way of breaking conventions in acting, where actors directly interact with the audience.

Everyone! A worker like me...

An earthquake?

Get down! Get down!

Nobu! Nobu!

What will happen after the ship sails?

It would be better if we could just die.

Hirase, mount Fuji is erupting

I heard there might be a tsunami.

There's even a far-fetched rumor that Prime Minister Yamamoto Gonbei has been assassinated.

Everyone, stay calm.

In times like this, there are often all sorts of rumors.

Let's not be misled by rumors and stay calm.

But those people, the Koreans and the nationalists,

might take advantage of the chaos to do bad things.

I heard there's not only robbery and rape, but also arson everywhere.

Some even say they're poisoning wells.

They're trying to take revenge during the earthquake for the injustices they suffered.

That's impossible.

Why? Are you trying to cover for the Korean nationalists?

I'm just saying it's impossible.

It's you who's irresponsibly spreading these rumors.

I feel like I've seen you somewhere...

Really?

What's wrong?

That man just now...

Wasn't he a detective from the Fisheries Agency?

Pour some mineral bath into the water and take a bath.

What's wrong, Tomi? It's very dangerous!

Did your husband go to Tokyo for work?

Has he contacted you?

It's also impossible to contact him.

He'll be back as if nothing happened in a few days.

Don't worry.

Sakie.

Sakie?

Do you also have something on your mind?

I just saw Kurazo's boat. He's fine.

That's great, really great.

That's really great.

Sakie?

I'm glad you're okay.

The water of the Tone River is churning with waves.

The small boat sways like a leaf.

It's really dangerous.

The weather is clear, but the waves are high.

"The rise and fall of the empire..."

What are you doing?

Feels so good...

What?

I said, it feels so good.

oh.

Even though someone died in the earthquake at home,

I still think about Ginza's Wakamatsu.

I wonder how it's doing.

I really want to eat dumplings.

Sorry.

Why?

Why apologizing.

What a bargain!

Ah... Ice.

I understood the word "sorry" you said earlier.

I said..

What?

It's nothing!

Hundreds of Korean construction workers in Yokohama are causing trouble.

A large group of people stormed a nearby girl's home and raped her.

Did the Koreans do this?

That's outrageous.

I also heard they poisoned the wells one by one.

Is that true?

It seems like the Koreans set fire to Honjo.

It seems like the Koreans set fire to Honjo.

It seems like the Koreans set fire to Honjo.

I heard all the Japanese were tortured and killed.

Do you know anyone from Honjo?

My husband is there.

I hope he hasn't been harmed by the Koreans.

It's really unfortunate...

Don't worry, don't worry. He'll definitely come back!

It's really unfortunate...

Did you really see Koreans attacking

and poisoning the wells?

Did you really see it with your own eyes?

No...

But everyone is saying that.

A pharmacy in town has closed down,

and another one couldn't get supplies, so it closed too.

Let's go.

Are you sure...

But there are still aftershocks.

At a time like this, what else can we do if not trade?

Aren't we just living like this?

It's dangerous outside, but the women stayed behind.

Let's go.

Just wait.

Take care.

At a time like this, doing business might get us killed.

What nonsense are you talking about?

But......

boss

there's a saying, 'A small loss may lead to a greater gain.'

boss

please, Village Chief, it'll be too late if something really happens.

Wait,

Let's calm down first.

call me village chief.

Village Chief.

Isn't democracy about the majority obeying the minority?

Exactly! That's right.

The Ministry of Internal Affairs has issued a notice.

Read it out loud to everyone!

Regarding the uprising of the Koreans,

the local militia, fire brigade, youth organizations, etc.,.

should work together to guard against it.

If something happens, respond quickly

and take appropriate measures.

Appropriate measures!

Now is the time for action!

That's it, the village chief.

Just now, the Ministry of Internal Affairs sent a notice to organize a self-defense force.

Mobilize all local militia, youth organizations,

fire brigade

to guard lives, families,

and the village.

Okay,

let's start preparing.

Start preparing now!

Let's go cut bamboo!

Onward, onward!

Loyalty to the sovereign and service to the country are our duties!

First, the duty of soldiers is loyalty to the sovereign and service to the country!

Everyone who has been given life by the state!

Sawado.

The situation has escalated to a point where it can no longer be stopped.

You're here.

Everyone in the village is saying that

The North Koreans are coming...

I don't think the Koreans would do such things during an earthquake.

But,

It's not completely impossible.

In the Pyecheon Market incident,

the crowd demanding independence was indiscriminately shot.

Since the merger with South Korea, the Japanese have been mistreating the Koreans.

So...

They have always been afraid that the Koreans will retaliate someday.

Will this turn into that kind of event?

The military and the police have been targeting the Koreans again...

There was an incident in Tsutsumi Iwa Village, right?

The church

was burned down.

It wasn't burned down.

Not burned down

It was the Japanese who burned it down.

Four years ago,

I was right there

Tangang-ri.

Jeam-ri.

Four years ago?

I was called by the police to interpret for 29 Koreans.

What did you say?

What did you say?

(Korean)

As soon as those 29 people entered the church,

the police boarded up the windows and doors and started shooting.

Dozens of rounds,

not a few hundred shots.

the sound of gunfire has been continuous.

You can hear

A groaning sound came from inside.

They hadn't died yet,

but the police set fire to the church and burned everyone inside.

turnover

There were their families.

A woman ran to us,

saying

"My husband

was only fighting for Korean independence

and had no hatred for Japan."

I tried my best to translate it.

but as soon as I finished,

Lieutenant Commander Arita

used his sword to cut off the woman's head.

Most Japanese people don't need to learn Korean

because they force Koreans to speak Japanese,

but I

But I worked hard to learn Korean.

I feel that since we live on their land,

we should learn their language.

However, the Korean I learned so hard

was used to kill them.

I feel nothing, no pain, nothing at all.

can't feel anything.

You did something very cruel.

Right.

I did... something very cruel.

Me too

Please take me with you.

Please, I'm begging you.

Where are you going?

Back to Chiba.

Chiba? Why did you come to Tokyo?

I'm here for a story.

A story?

I'm a journalist for a newspaper.

Hmm, a woman.

I doubt it.

Can’t women be journalists?

Say '15 yen 50 sen'...

Why?

Because North Koreans can't speak ガギグゲゴ"

If you're not Korean, just say it!

15 yen 50 sen,

15 yen 50 sen, 15 yen 50 sen...

15 yuan 50 cents

Alright.

15 yen 50 sen.

Alright.

You too, speak.

Why don't you say something? What's wrong?

she can't speak.

She's my sister. She was born without the ability to speak.

Let's go.

Thank you.

Wait,

are you

are you the one who usually sells Korean sweets?

My name is Kim Seong-Nyo!

Kim Seong-Nyo!

This person is indeed a Korean!

Onda.

Are you okay?

We've been worried about you since you didn't contact us.

I witnessed a Korean girl being killed by the vigilantes yesterday afternoon.

Please let me write an article.

yesterday afternoon

The Funabashi Launching Station sent a notice.

It seems to say that there are Koreans setting fires, and some even have bombs.

It's impossible.

It's a notice from the Ministry of Internal Affairs.

Good morning.

Do you prefer to believe the telegram

from the Ministry of Internal Affairs over what the journalist witnessed?

Do you want to document all of this?

Can you bear the consequences if something happens?

I'm more afraid of not documenting the consequences clearly.

If it's unclear, it shouldn't be written.

This is the Korean candy found on the victim girl.

It's very rare,

despite being stained with blood and sand.

Endo, hey.

If you don't trust the journalist, what do you trust?

What are newspapers for in the end?

To please readers?

Is that all we aim for?

Are the authorities always right?

I'm going to gather information.

Me

and the boatman...

I saw it.

When you saw it...

What did you feel?

Why

didn't you shout loudly to stop me?

You always just watch from the sidelines.

After this farce is over,

let's use this money to buy a new horse.

The car can't be driven for the time being.

Head horse, head horse

Where did you get this money from...?

At the Katsuura Riverbank,

the Jisshinoyo squad fired machine guns at a row of Koreans.

Peak must be seen

Why did the military come today?

Martial law has been declared.

In order to prevent unexpected situations from happening,

you will be handed over to the police for protection.

You're the ones spreading rumors everywhere,

Aren't you?

I hope the Koreans won't come.

Why?

Nothing.

Kurayo.

Aren't you afraid?

I am.

Wasn't there a senior official in Manchuria shot by the Koreans?

They've been mistreated all along.

Once they really retaliate,

these bamboo guns won't stand a chance.

Mistake in an Epidemic.

Everyone! Everyone!

Gather quickly!

Martian law has been declared.

Martial law?

Alright! Now we can openly kill people.

Don't get carried away!

Look,

without the permission of the military, police, or officials, no one can pass through at will.

Ordinary people are not allowed to carry weapons or items that could be used as weapons without permission.

It's written like this.

That's impossible!

Vice Chairman,

let's disband the Home Guard.

Disband!?

Then how will we protect the village?

If something happens, just ring the bell.

Everyone can rush over then.

Village chief, how can you be so calm?

Village chief! Village chief!

At

You're still playing soldiers here. Hurry back and be a farmer.

Go buy a new horse.

Do you have any left?

This is

For yesterday.

Thank you.

Ouch! It hurts!

No matter how many Koreans and communist sympathizers you kill,

the world will still transition from capitalism to socialism.

Discrimination and poverty will no longer exist.

It's a shame I won't live to see the day of the revolution.

Long live socialism!

Long live the workers!

Oh, the Home Guard has stopped its activities.

That's inevitable.

You can't keep people from making a living forever.

We should start operating again.

Not only are we not making money, but we also have to cover the daily expenses of 15 people.

The earthquake really destroyed our business.

Besides, we are not Koreans to begin with.

Keiichi

Before,

I heard the abbot say our ancestors came from Korea. Is that true?

Hmm, I think so.

Haha, is His Majesty the Emperor also a Korean?

Don't talk nonsense. Emperor Tenno is a divine being.

Whether he helps us or not, we have our divine beings.

Are you okay?

Have you decided on a name?

We're naming him 'Wang.'

Wang”?

It must be Keiichi's idea.

It's a strange name.

When written in characters, it's '望,' which means 'hope.'

Hope's Desire.

It's a good name that can be used for both boys and girls,

Right?

The boy it's "Nozomu",

The girl it's "Nozomi".

"For a boy, it's 'Nozomu,' for a girl, it's 'Nozomi.'

It's a great name.

Right?

good name good name

Even though we always say that a child will bring happiness,

it's certain that one day,

no one will face discrimination.

Nobu.

Have you read 'The Declaration of the Horizontal Society'?

Last year, we formed a movement called the Horizontal Society.

That's when the declaration was introduced.

There should be light in the world.

The "Declaration of Horizontal Society" calls for the unity of the people of special communities across the country!

If you dare to defy the authorities, this will be the result.

Let's go.

What's wrong?

We're almost at the ferry crossing of Tonegawa.

I'll go negotiate the ferry fee.

You wait here.

Buy some dumplings to eat.

Can we really?

Later.

Just endure a little longer.

Has the boss's head been affected by the earthquake?

Another shake and it'll be fine.

Let's go,

Take it slow.

Hello, can the boat here depart?

Is it just you?

There are 15 of us doing business.

With all the luggage from your business, it might take three trips to transport it all.

Three trips?

Won't two be enough?

Because of the earthquake, the water flow is strong.

Normally, two trips might be possible, but not now.

Please help us find a solution.

This earthquake must have made your business difficult.

Anyway, let me see the luggage first.

Go take a look.

Huh?

what are you doing here?

The teahouse was crowded with eight people, and we lost our game of "guess the sound" among ourselves.

That's really not a solution.

Is gambling your only entertainment?

That won't do.

Is it the same over there?

Three trips... No, even four trips wouldn't be enough to transport everything by boat.

Don't say that. We're all from out of town,

so we're naturally worried about being left behind.

Bro, think of a solution.

Can't we transport this small amount of goods?

Hey, stop! What are you two talking about?

This person keeps asking for my help.

Huh?

I just asked for your help to figure out how to transport the goods. You idiot.

What dialect are you speaking?

Sanuki.

Sanuki? Where is Sanuki?

You don't know? It's in Shikoku.

Are you a North Korean?

That's an offensive thing to say.

Wait, I'll show you.

This guy has a pistol.

Stop making things up!

Ring the bell! Call everyone here!

Amao, calm down.

You're just too slow! That's why everyone looks down on you.

You only act fast when it comes to women!

They're North Korean!

The North Koreans are here!

If we don't leave the village, we'll be caught!

Hey, over there! The North Koreans are here! Hurry, hurry!

Hold it!

Manobu! Manobu!

You little brat! Stop!

This kid is with them too!

Sit down!

What are you going to do?

That's them!

It looks like they're really medicine merchants.

No,

this kind of thing can be faked however they want!

Hey, stop making baseless claims. How could this be fake?

There are official seals on it!

What are they saying?

I can't understand a word.

Can we verify this permit at the Noda Office?

Okay.

If this is real, then they're Japanese.

Until I come back from verifying, no one is allowed to act!

Alright!

Everyone go back first and come back after lunch.

Is that okay, Branch Leader?

Where are the North Koreans?

There are no North Koreans.

Aren't they?

The police are currently verifying their permit at the Noda Office to confirm their identities.

I see.

Branch Leader, that's not true!

Is that so?

Don't back off, the North Korean guy is here!

How many times are you going to make me repeat myself, kid!

It's them.

No, no, no, they are merchants from Zanjin.

I think they're pretending to be merchants.

Are you looking for an opportunity to set a fire or something?

Is that so, Branch Leader?

What's wrong, Fukuda Village Branch Leader?

Are you losing your nerve at a critical moment?

Stop talking nonsense! What are you trying to do?

calm down!

Everyone, calm down!

You, who dodged the draft, keep quiet!

Weren't you the one who rented the school to avoid the draft?

That's not it. I did it for the village's sake.

During peacetime, it's okay, but now it's wartime.

You're just someone who can write numbers and articles on paper.

You're useless!

Step aside!

session

Hey, you seem pretty relaxed.

Don't play dumb. Did you hear me?

What's going on?

Amao, look at that!

This is a Korean thing.

They're North Koreans!

Hina>人

You guys! How shameless can you be, sitting there like that?

Get up now!

Get up! Get up!

Get up!

Get up!

Quickly, get up!

Great.

You say "15 yuan and 50 cents."

Say it quickly!

What's wrong? Are you staring at me because you can't say it?

Say it quickly!

15 yuan and 50 cents.

What's with your attitude?

Next!

Shout "Long live the Emperor!"

What's wrong? Can't you say it like this?

Long live the Emperor!

Long live!

Say it quickly!

If you don't say it, I'll kill you!

Say it quickly!

Long live the Emperor!

Why aren't you saying it?

Long live the Emperor!

Your voice is too soft!

Does this also count as being Japanese?

Hey you!

Name all the Emperors in history!

Can't say it?

Just say it like this.

I said that's it

I'll show you!

Jimmu

and later

Annei

Itoku

Kosho

Why aren't you saying it?

They're all just con artists,

all talk and no action.

Their way of speaking has always been strange.

They must be North Koreans.

Chōgōkawa!

Call me the Branch Leader!

Didn't I tell you to wait until the police come back?

That's right, they're North Koreans!

Hey, let's go, let's go!

Nobu! Nobu!

On the day of the earthquake, didn't I sell you medicine?

Auntie!

Didn't you invite me for a drink?

Shizuko.

Is what he's saying true?

They're here...

Two people have come.

There's one more...

It's him.

Just a moment! Just a moment to verify the permit,

and we'll know if they're Japanese or Korean!

What should I do?

How long are you going to talk nonsense? They must be Koreans!

Tamura!

You're so weak!

How can you protect your beloved wife and child under the Koreans?

That's right, that's right! That's how it is!

I want to say...

I know them.

Can't I say it?

Are you willing to just stand by and watch!?

I know them!!

I know them!

Everyone, calm down.

i know them.

I bought Japanese bath soap from them.

From Dōgo Onsen, bath salts!

They are Japanese!

There must be others who have bought things from them too, right? Right?

You bought from them, didn't you? Don't you remember!

Someone must have bought from them!

Sawada.

You bought from them, right!?

Sawada...

Why are you protecting the Koreans?

Why lie!

I didn't lie.

Hasegawa.

Everyone, calm down and look carefully.

They are Japanese.

You're biased for them because you used to live in Korea!

wake up!

What he's saying is true!

It's true! I bought them!

I bought bath salts from them!

you!

Are you also Korean?

Take this woman down too!

No!

There is something wrong with you all!

Calm down!

you!

You not only betraying Yukimi but also betraying our village!

You shameless woman!

Wasn't this person born in our village!?

His wife, Mrs. Shizuko, is also Japanese!

They all are!

Are you having an affair with a Korean!

That’s it! That’s it!

Hey! Hey!!

What if they really are Japanese?

Then you would have killed Japanese!

Can you kill just because they are Korean?

Can you kill just because they are Korean!?

Husband! Husband!

- Murderers! - Killers!

You are all murderers!

Murderers!

husband!

Mom? Dad?

Mom?

dad?

Shogo.

Quick, run!

Aishi, come here!

Ash, run!

Where are you running to? Over there!

Chase, chase, chase!

Terumatsu......

What's going on?

Yu

Found them!

found it!

Kill! Kill them!

What am I born into this world for...?

You, and you!

Are you two married?

Can't understand words?

Don't understand Japanese!?

Stop!

Where are you! Come out quickly!

Running won't help!

We won't let you get away!

You... you are the village chief, right!

Please, help me!

Please, help us! I'll do anything you ask!

Won't you stop me?

Village chief!

Please, I beg you...

You have been abandoned by democracy.

Don't run! Don't run!

Let this child go!

Let this child go!

Terumatsu! Terumatsu!

Devil! You are all devils!

Stop it!

Only they're left!

If we don't kill them all, it will be troublesome!

That’s right!

It's your turn now!

What are you doing! Shut up!

Go!

If not, I'll go in your place!

I'll go!

( The following is a recitation from the "Declaration of the Levelers") The reward for skinning beasts is the living skin of a person being peeled.

The cost of harming animals is the warm heart of a person being cut.

Even if covered in spit from being laughed at,

Even in the cursed nightmare,

The noble blood will never dry up.

Yes, we,

Those who inherit this glorious lineage are expected to replace the gods. We are currently in such an era.

The time has come for the sacrificial to return the brand.

The time has come for the martyrs to bless their crowns.

The time has come for us to proudly bear the name 'Huiduo'."

Hey! Wait! Hey!

Don't be so hasty! They are indeed Japanese.

Don't be so hasty!

What about the others?

no!

You...

Could it be!

Anyway...

You must not continue this killing!

They are indeed Japanese!

Quickly, release the wire!

What else can you say at a time like this?

They say the vigilantes can decide for themselves,

they can strategize.

It's you, the police,

the leaders!

Is that so?

It's the country!

We are defending the country.

OK OK

To protect the village...

That's enough, my husband.

husband!

you have tried your best.

Shizuko.

Why.......

Why...why...

Why..........

I'm sorry.

Why!

Why.......

I'm sorry.

I'm sorry...

I'm a reporter from the Chiba Daily.

May I ask you some questions?

They told me to wait,

so I waited.

Will you write about this in the newspaper?

Yes.

Don't you understand?

We have to live in this village for the rest of our lives.

That's why...

You have to write...

I will write.

if

I don't write in the newspaper

that the Korean rebellion is just a rumor,

they will be massacred en masse.

Even they...

So, I have to stick to it, at least.

I have to stick to it to make up for our mistakes.

Tomi!

Husband...

The nine people who were killed were like a close-knit family.

It's ten people,

one was about to give birth.

For a boy, the name is "刻" (Nozomu).

For a girl, the name is "户美" (Nozomi).

The characters are the same,

but the pronunciations are different.

There are nine people,

each with their own name:

Shibu Shin'nosuke.

Numabe Yukino.

沼部晴康 (Numabe Haruyasu)

Numabe Kitae.

Takashita Naiichi.

Takashita ichii.

Takashita Terumatsu.

Takahata Saki.

They all have their own names.

Where are we going?

Can you give me a destination?

According to records, more than 6,000 Koreans, Chinese, and socialists were killed during the chaos of the Kanto Earthquake in Japan.

In the Fukuda Village Incident, where the victims were Japanese, eight people were eventually arrested. They were each sentenced to three to ten years of imprisonment. However, due to the death of Emperor Taisho, they were all released under a general amnesty.

It is said that the bodies of the itinerant merchant group were abandoned by the Tone River.

The six people who narrowly escaped and returned to their hometown, as well as the families of the nine people who were killed, have never spoken about the incident since then.
