Stand at ease!

Chul-soo.

Form the ranks,

2 deaths, 1 injured, 1 lost Carbine.

What? A carbine?

Did you bring the carbine from the dead?

Yes, sir.

Who's the one that lost it?

Step forward.

Are you prepared to be shot dead?

Captain, I climbed onto the wall of the police office.

I got shot on my arm, and lost it.

I got converging fires at that time.

So I couldn't climb over the wall and lost it,

captain...

You gave them your carbine instead of taking their ammunition?

Comrades, we failed this time due to wrong information.

There left only our revenge on the Namsanli villagers, got that?

Start!

Ah, it's far away.

What?

Our fates to be chased like this.

It is far away to have good days...

Never having a situation to live in a steady place anywhere.

The supply fight is a trouble these days, too.

Chinese troops aren't coming, our soldiers are decreasing,

so the liberation day is far away.

Now I can't even trust what the officials say.

Shish...

how dare you say that?

Just between you and me,

Armistice has already been concluded. Who would come?

Comrade Soju, captain is calling you.

Go to see him.

Soju, what's so funny?

I'm busy. I'm going to see the captain.

Our republic intends to abandon us?

Why do you say that again?

They seem to cut the line after the truce.

Probably.

Was Soviet Union hurry to conclude the truce?

Why do you keep saying that?

It could be harsh to the leaders' ears.

Who live in Namsanli?

My mother and uncle.

I see.

It's Soju again. Barely 2 measures of barley rice and women's clothes...

Soju didn't complete her duty and she's only proud of her skill.

Ae-ran is much better than her.

I'm different in my background..

Right, you are from North Union Party.

There you are.

Come in. Captain is waiting for you.

You care for the laundry and diary.

Chul-soo must be deaf.

Huh! The laundry smells much like Soju.

Comrade

be careful with your words.

Why? You don't like it?

Soju must be busy with

doing laundry and being warned by captain.

She must be overworking.

You don't need to be bothered by Soju?

Huh, you neglect your duty, Soju, and you still don't throw out the female temper.

Thus, you have weak spirit for our communist party.

I see. I'll never do that again.

For us, a grain of rice is more precious than this.

Comrade, Soju.

Let go,

let go.

Anyways, our captain is the best!

Did you see it yesterday, didn't you?

Once captain doesn't like, it's over.

Not to mention it, do you recall the purge in Baemsa village last fall?

Ah, you mean the reactionary who tried to surrender himself to us?

Yes. Captain said the guts of the reactionary were plain,

and that cut and chewed them with his shitty face.

It's disgusting.

That's warning from his conduct.

You learned it in class.

Captain,

Captain!

What is it?

A messenger came.

Then, you go and talk with him.

Code!

Cloud!

Half Moon.

Captain, Comrade Seo is coming.

Chief Captain Seo?

Let them, hurry...

I didn't expect you come suddenly.

You are working hard.

I came here to praise our brave comrades to encourage.

It's the honor of Agari troop.

Attention!

Today, it is my honor

to have this time with you partisans.

You... for our nation, the Soviet Union,

during our revolution, with strong spirit...

fought ruthlessly, and it was our partisans' brilliant results in war

that you've completed the attack of the enemy territory

and demolished the bridge on the fight of May Day.

Today I confer this decoration on Agari

always fighting bravely and praise his service.

Service medal. Captain of Agari unit, Chu Bong-hyuk.

This person is granted this medal for showing the heroic spirit

in partisan fighting during National Liberation War.

November 10th, 1953,

North Leader Dept. of National Provincial Party, Partisan Headquarters, Commander Cho, Byung-ha

This decoration is given only with certificate under revolution,

but you will see the honor and privilege

will always shine on his chest.

We decide to

grant a pig to other soldiers.

Attention.

Comrade Oh Soju, step forward.

And, I give an order to Oh Soju

to call back to main office, according to the agreement at the last military committee.

Ae-ran, don't forget to watch all the staffs at the village.

Our Great Leader Kim ll-sung suggested

we stage a purge against reactionaries before destroy the enemies.

The reactionaries like defaulters, sneakers and romanticists

in troop should be cleaned up.

Line up!

Comrades, we should develop our fight today.

We should reserve as much as we can

we could recall the serious hunger from last winter,

so our departure of today's fight is Namsanli village.

Namsanli village, a nursery of the reactionary

Namsanli village, a nursery of the reactionary.

We will punish the entire reactionary and fight for our supply.

Though some of us are from Namsanli,

we should risk our necks for this great and imminent revolutionary struggle.

We should show our strong spirit for the Party,

execrating the reactionary parents, brothers like enemies.

Complete each of your duty.

Then go!

What's wrong?

I fell down.

Bastard.

How did it go?

Nothing.

Mother,

Mother,

Mother,

Mother.

Yeah, who is it?

It's me, mom.

You! You shot your mom?

No... mom.

Mom..

You.. you...

Who shot the old lady?

I did.

You didn't know whose house it was?

No, I didn't. I just killed a reactionary.

People would become serious, after killing that old lady.

It's weird.

Isn't it right we praise his decision for cleaning up the reactionary?

Comrades, good job.

We should clean up the reactionary sooner.

Ae-ran, take him forward.

You should do this tonight.

Execute the reactionary

in People and Party's name in haste.

I'll execute you reactionaries

with honor of our party.

Step forward, you serious reactionary headman.

Your Namsanli village is a hangout of the reactionary.

We have the evidence from this undercover man in the village,

you aren't supportive for our partisan's task,

which we fight for people's victory in edge.

We punish you reactionaries in People and Party's name

for your interruption the day before.

That's right.

We'll punish a foe of our brave comrades who died that night.

Agree!

These sons of bitches informed them of our mobilization.

You could survive if you help us.

Now you know the guilt of this bad reactionary.

If you're not guilty and reactionary,

you should kill them with your own hands

to prove your faith to out party.

Would you survive killing him with this spear?
