The President's Last Bang (그때 그 사람들)

Presented by MKB An MKB Pictures Production

This film is based on a true story:

the assassination of South Korean President Park Chung-hee.

President Park gained office by a military coup in 1961

and ruled for 18 years with near dictatorial powers.

In October 1979, students and workers gather to protest Park's oppressive rule,

but Park's military easily crushes the protesters.

THE PRESIDENT'S LAST BANG

Take them off! It won't cost you a thing!

Hurry and jump in!

OCTOBER 26, 1979, SEOUL

She said she woke up early in the morning

to find him gently caressing her body.

Mumbling, "Beautiful, so beautiful."

He continued to do this, over her entire body.

She opened her eyes and smiled bashfully.

Embarrassed, he began to gather his clothes.

She dared not lie there.

So she urged him to dress as she helped him, naked.

Stark naked.

He couldn't resist holding her again.

It's unbelievable.

Especially at his age.

As he held her tight,

he told her to visit again, to come see him again.

That's enough!

My blood pressure's getting worse.

I apologize for storming the Blue House lately.

I'm not asking for compensation.

I know this puts all of you in a difficult position.

But I have no choice. Please consider his feelings.

Consider what he wants, what makes him happy!

It's a big mistake to ignore her.

Mistake, my ass.

You goddamn bitch.

And you call yourself a mother!

Fuck!

How has the world come to this?

Get up!

Get up, you bitch!

Look here! I deserve some respect!

During the revolution, there were no bridges,

just small ferryboats, and muddy landscapes.

The change must make you quite emotional, sir.

So what about the seal incident? Finish your report.

Yes, sir.

During the boat trip,

someone swiped the seal's testicles.

It's worthless now, sir.

Do you have proof that Minister Jung was behind it?

No, but no one else could have done it, sir.

- Anyway, he's unbelievable. - It's his personal philosophy.

Life's very short, so enjoy it to the fullest.

He's never picky with women - what a slimeball.

Never make a big deal

over what goes on below the belly button.

A real man would never do so.

Mr. Director of the Korean CIA (KCIA)!

You know a great deal of top secret information.

This government can't go on like this much longer.

So resign and get some rest.

Once this brutal reformist regime ends, things could get better.

Can't you return then?

Your liver can't function at even one fifth of its normal level,

causing chronic afternoon fatigue, bloating, gas.

And you're not thinking straight, are you?

You've got a good excuse. Get some rest!

He doesn't think I should rest.

"Why live long and happy by yourself? Get back to work," he says.

Anyway...

A true Samurai never leaves loose ends!

Prepare to leave!

Samurai, my ass!

Next stop, KCIA headquarters. Lead the way.

- Colonel Min. - Yes, sir.

Well? Does it smell really bad?

Well, I've been smelling it for ages, sir.

That's not your normal bad breath,

but the smell of a rotten liver.

For over a year, I've been suffocating the President.

I feel so bad for him.

But, sir, people stink.

It's not a big deal.

For Korean-Japanese, especially pro-North sympathizers,

the Defense Security Command (DSC) can easily make them spies.

If I say I like North Korea's no-tax policy?

Clause three, section two: Praising the North Korean communist party!

If you're just being polite and say, "I see, yes, of course."

Clause three, section three, four, five: Encouraging, Glorifying and Congregating.

Asking for news to be passed on to your hometown in South Korea?

Secret Instructions, Clause four, section one!

If that person enters South Korea, it's an Infiltration.

A visit to your hometown is Collecting Information.

Taking a flight back to Japan is a Getaway.

A phone call saying that your hometown has the best dog meat

is a Contact, Communication and Reporting Back.

And there you've got your espionage conviction under anti-communist law.

That's why the DSC men

are always staking out Gimpo International Airport,

checking the list and picking out their victims.

Those fuckers all got their big breaks doing that.

Earning a special rank promotion to general.

- Looks like the old man's here... - Is Director Kim coming with them?

Secretary Cha got nixed. He never made it in the group.

How come?

He was told the helicopter was full.

How come you're all shrivelled up?

You call those dicks?

How can you even think about democracy or revolution with dicks like that!

First, get yourselves some manly dicks, you dickheads.

So, you own a Picasso?

Yes, a small printing. I bought it cheap.

Did you know Picasso was a member of the Spanish communist party?

What, Picasso? You mean Pablo Picasso?

You look like you need more water!

I didn't know he was a member of the communist party!

Hear that?

If we tell them to, we can put you away!

- Then put us away. - No, Mum!

Sir, let us go. We won't say a word.

Morons.

Do you people know what love is? Do you?

I'll say it's the seed of tears

Mum here is so naive.

Where are my pants?

You're embarrassing me in front of Secretary Yang.

Secretary Yang, isn't that report yours?

- Secretary Cha. - Yes?

Why don't you mind your own business?

How dare you stick your nose into reports I've prepared for the president?

I'm not sure what you'd think.

Oh, what the hell, I'll be honest.

Secretary Yang.

Weren't you appointed as secretary of the liquor cabinet?

The president's drinking buddy.

Myself, the president, you, we all know it for a fact.

The president is lonely.

Truly lonely!

To be his drinking buddy is extremely important.

No need for you to file reports like -

Yes, Mr. President!

Yes!

Yes, he's here with me!

Five stacks of one million notes, and one stack of five million notes.

I'll take that. And you have the rest.

And spend a little less!

I'm here, sir.

Who's that girl who sings Japanese enka songs so well?

Ah, yes.

I feel like hearing her sing today.

Very well, sir. Should it be at the secret quarters?

Sir, there's a banquet in the secret quarters tonight.

A big one.

Again?

Call the army chief of staff.

Operator, get me the army chief of staff.

Ma'am, get out.

Let's not bump into each other again, okay?

Now get out of here.

Take good care of your mother. And have her watch her mouth.

If I see you again, I'll -

You'll be in deep shit!

- Do you know where we are? - No! Let's go.

Oh, my head. My legs are shaking.

- Where are we? - Hurry and get up!

It doesn't take much to be a good lay!

Make them think they're fucking your brains out!

Men can't tell! They'll think they're the greatest fuck-

Hey!

Stop.

Just don't go overboard,

or you'll go down in history as a crazy whore.

Why are you up there?

Cut the crap, you bitches.

He must've heard everything.

Attention!

Yes, I have one last word.

Without ensuring the security and protection of the president,

national security means nothing!

The president is the country!

The national anthem! Continue to play!

Hey, can we cross during the national anthem?

Of course, let's cross.

No!

No fucking way!

Let's go.

Fuck the national anthem! I have to get home. Come on!

What's wrong with them?

What will you start with?

Steamed roots and ginseng marinated in honey.

But I can't come up with a main dish.

It's cold today.

Hey, Kang, turn up the boiler!

Hey, is that fresh?

- Get them out of sight. - Yes, sir.

The old man's coming.

- Be at the next block. - Yes, sir!

Let's go!

Sir!

Huh? What?
