"Navy Fleet 2 Operating Base,

Pyeongtaek, South Korea."

This is footage of the

1999 Yellow Sea skirmish.

As you See, when they cross the NLL,

play the warning recording

and block their path.

This is their submerged patrol boat,

T-34 tank turret is installed on the front.

We're all edgy during the World Cup period,

but we mustn't engage first,

no matter the circumstance.

Understand?

Yes, sir!

Yes?

We'll resort to blocking

when they enter our waters,

but such maneuvers expose

us to a possible ambush.

To minimize our vulnerability,

we should fire warning shots,

and immediately suppress their provocation.

You're not wrong,

but we cannot change the

rules of engagement.

But...

Soldiers must strictly follow our orders.

- Understand?
