Synopsis: In 1950, in South Korea, shoe-shiner Jin-tae Lee and his 18-year-old old student brother, Jin-seok Lee, form a poor but happy family with their mother, Jin-tae's fiancé Young-shin Kim, and her young sisters. Jin-tae and his mother are tough workers, who sacrifice themselves to send Jin-seok to the university. When North Korea invades the South, the family escapes to a relative's house in the country, but along their journey, Jin-seok is forced to join the army to fight in the front, and Jin-tae enlists too to protect his young brother. The commander promises Jin-tae that if he gets a medal he would release his brother, and Jin-tae becomes the braver soldier in the company. Along the bloody war between brothers, the relationship of Jin-seok with his older brother deteriorates leading to a dramatic and tragic end.

We can't carry all these!

I'll carry them!

I'll carry them all!

Don't be stupid!

I told you I will!

We'll be back soon

I told you

How do you know that?

No one knows what will happen!

The shop is just

starting to do well

Somebody will take it

while we're gone

What about the KIMchi pots

buried in the yard?

And the vegetables

I planted in spring?

They all will be fine

until we get back

What if you're drafted?

Only if they need their boots shined

We have to hurry

The North's solders

are getting close

And the streets are

packed with refugees

Hurry up, Young-ja

Let's go

Mother!

Mom says we must

stay together all the time

- Put Young-min on here

- Young-min

Hold on tight

We won't be long, okay?

Jin-seok, come on!

Jin-seok!

Hold hands tight!

Young-ja!

Dae-gu, July 1950

What the hell is that train

sitting over there for?

I told you

trains for civilians are not running!

Where's a pharmacy?

I don't know

Let's go to the war front

And destroy the communists!

We must protect our country!

I think we have to

give up the train

- What about that one?

- It's leaving for the front

- Is Jin-tae back?

- Not yet

Jin-tae will bring you

some medicine in a minute

Salute!

Excuse us, but we're

on official business

Men between 18 and 30

step forward

Between 18 and 30!

It's nothing serious

Just step forward

- What's going on?

- It's nothing serious, don't worry

- What year were you born?

- I was born in 1921

Step forward then

It will be over soon

so please cooperate

Between 18 and 30!

How old are you?

- Ei... eighteen

- Step forward

- What's going on?

- and also people at the back...

step forward

- Men between 18 and 30

- Don't go

You don't need to follow

their orders

Don't worry, It's just some

questions, I guess

- It's going to be okay

- Come on, let's go

Everything will be fine

I'm still a student

- I'll be fine

- No, Jin-seok!

You aren't allowed to go

- Jin-seok!

- No, Jin-seok!

To position!

- Salute!

- student soldier

Loyalty!

Back to position!

Don't worry

It's going to be Okay

Give this to Young-min

- What happened?

- Jin-seok...

What happened to Jin-seok?

The soldiers took him

with all the young men

he's not back yet

Jin-tae!

- We'll go

- We'll fight

We'll win!

- student soldier!

- student soldier!

- volunteer soldier!

- volunteer soldier!

Brave volunteer student soldiers

long live Korea

but now brave soldiers

Where are you going?

I'm looking for my brother

You're not permitted in here

You'll have to leave

- Jin-seok! Jin-seok!

- Stop right there!

Jin-tae!

Let's go!

This isn't the train to uncle's house

We're leaving soon

Sit down

My brother got on the wrong train
