His ideas change according to circumstances

so his ideals can't last long.

Song Mong Gyu.

What are the requisites

to establish a nation?

Territory...

Citizens...

and sovereignty.

Correct.

A nation must have sovereignty.

But we are people without sovereignty.

What's the use of singing about ideals

when we don't have sovereignty?

Worth giving some thought.

Tell me if there's a way, sir.

Class is over. Mong Gyu, stay behind.

Want me to tell you how to get sovereignty?

Yes, sir.

I'm asking if you have the will to act.

I wonder why the teacher

asked Mong Gyu to stay.

Don't know.

Do you know his story?

Tell me.

He's an elite, graduated from

Tokyo Imperial University.

There's a reason why he came

to teach at our school.

They say the New People's

Association sent him.

New People's Association?

They say Master Kim Koo selected

and sent him especially.

What did you talk about with the teacher?

Did you roll it with your chin?

Yun Dong Ju, you'll keep

writing poetry, right?

And Ik Hwan, you'll go

to theological college?

Why are you saying that?

Me, I'm going to China.

China?

Bakunin and Kropotkin!

Unite the people of the world!

Study hard until I come back. Understand?

Hail to Bakunin and Kropotkin!

WHITE SHADOWS:

At the street corner in the weighing dusk

when I open my ears which

have withered all day long,

to the sound of the

footsteps taking the dusk.

Was I wise enough to hear

the sound of the footsteps?

The sound of footsteps...

Whose footsteps do you mean?

You aren't meant to read poetry,

analyzing every word one by one.

Reading Jeong Ji Yong and Yi Kwang Su

weren't you dreaming of

a Bolshevik revolution?

Do you know who Song Mong Gyu met in China?

I don't know.

He met a Kim Koo faction and

received military training.

Of course, you'd say you

didn't know about this.

But factional disputes are

second nature to you Koreans.

So he was disappointed in

the provisional government

and ended up meeting

Lee Woong.

Do you know who he is?

He looks like he's working for the

independence movement, but...

in fact, he's just a mercenary.

He was selling off Kim Koo and

Chiang Kai Shek's secret plans

for a lot of money.

That's about when we put Song

Mong Gyu under surveillance.

I don't believe it!

What don't you believe?

That Lee Woong was a double agent?

Or that Song Mong Gyu killed him?

Mong Gyu...

could never kill anyone.

And I've never heard

anything like this before.

He just didn't tell you. That makes sense.

Dong Ju.

Dong Ju, are you sleeping?

It's me, open up.

Are you here from China?

Chiang Kai Shek is busy

fighting the communist army.

Stupid morons.

When the Japanese army
