"Attack!" "Attack!" "Jakbo!" "Get a hold of yourself!" "We have to get out of here!" "Retreat!" "No!" "We can't leave Jakbo and Li." "Chung here to die!" "We have to go!" "We have to alert the fleet before more troops come ashore to get massacred!" "Retreat!" "Five hundred soldiers are dead?" "Yes, Admiral..." "Admiral, we must leave." "Gaduk is not a safe harborage." "Constable Yi, what brings you here?" "Is the admiral inside?" "He is out..." "for compulsory labor." "Compulsory labor?" "He is in no condition to work after what he's been through!" "The world is unkind..." "Admiral, you're back." "You look well." "I am well." "Did you say five hundred?" "I'm sure this is just the beginning." "Over one thousand new Japanese warships are said to have arrived." "But our navy faced little resistance on their advance to Pusan." "However, it was different when they tried to pull back." "What could this mean?" "Our sailors are in a state of exhaustion." "Should I or should I not inform the admiral..." "I struggled before I came." "But I had to come." "It the fleet is not brought back to the safety of the headquarters very soon, the worst possible scenario could play out." "What are we doing here in Chilchundo instead of Hansando?" "What is our plan?" "Why is the admiral refusing to talk to us?" "The admiral has a lot to consider." "What is there to consider?" "Persuade the admiral." "We must return to Hansando immediately!" "How can we go back when we've accomplished nothing?" "Would it please you to see the admiral get flogged again?" "That should be the least of our concern right now, Constable Woo." "We can't land anywhere because they are waiting for us at every harbor we try to dock." "What would happen to us if the Japanese attacked us here?" "We must return to the headquarters." "We have to regroup first then decide whether or not to re-attack." "I couldn't agree more." "The admiral will not return to the headquarters." "To a warrior, honor is more important than life." "Honor is useless if you're dead!" "Are you that afraid of death?" "To feel fear against a stronger enemy is natural!" "What makes you think only aggression is strategy?" "There is such a thing as strategic withdrawal!" "Why is there no news of victory from Supreme Commander Won Kyun?" "Your Majesty..." "He couldn't have been defeated." "The navy has never lost against a battle." "19 battles and 19 victories..." "That was not Yi Soon-shin but my navy's accomplishment." "It does not matter who commands the navy." "Is there nothing left to put our faith in except the will of Heaven?" "Your Highness!" "My servants have failed to inform me that you are here." "I told them not to." "Please sit down." "If predictions of fortunetellers always came true and Heaven always answered your prayers," "there would be more that we can do in this situation." "Your Highness..." "Minister Yu, I'm told you have not been attending office." "An incompetent man has occupied the seat of Prime Minister too long." "So..." "Are you leaving my father as well?" "You mustn't." "Who will be left to give him honest counsel if you leave?" "Please don't turn your back on your father." "You will be turning you back on this country if you do." "Your Highness..." "You must make every effort to succeed but you must also prepare for the worst." "Admiral..." "Burn everything down?" "You want me to destroy everything?" "Foreman Yu is not there, and nearly all of the defense guards are at sea, so you are the only one I can turn to." "I can't do it, sir." "How could I burn his place down?" "I just want you to be prepared for he worst." "Sir..." "I will do everything I can to bring the fleet back to the home port." "But if we fail, we have to make a bold decision." "We can't let the enemy have our weapons and provisions." "And let us keep this between us for now." "Do you understand?" "Commandant... you agree with me, don't you?" "This is a lost cause." "Is it not?" "That really doesn't matter at this point, sir." "What's important is finding a way to minimize the damage." "If you'll excuse me, I must go out to sea and check out the enemy's movements." "I will go out for a patrol run." "Sir..." "I will search every inch of the island coast." "Meanwhile, I want you to talk some sense into the admiral." "We have to stop this navy from getting completely annihilated." "Move west at full speed to Kyunneryang!" "Sir, we have to go east to patrol the coast..." "This is not a patrol run." "The only thing I care about is the safety of my ships." "Sir, are we deserting the fleet?" "We are not deserting the fleet, we are protecting it!" "This is an impossible fight that is certain to lead us to death." "Relay the command." "Proceed west at full speed to a safe harborage." "Anything word the Right Kyung-sang navy?" "How about a flare signal?" "Why are you telling me?" "Are you saying they're missing?" "Yes, sir." "The enemy must be near." "They must've come under an attacks." "They would have fired a signal flare if they were attacked." "Then what?" "Where could they be?" "Sir...!" "I hope you're wrong, but you could be right." "You mean the leader of the Right Kyung-sang Navy deserted the fleet?" "Admiral..." "I said no visitors." "Now even the guards do not take my commands seriously." "I'll go out there right now and..." "Slay me instead, sir." "The guards tried to stop me but I fought my way in, so I am the one who disobeyed you." "You came to mock me at risk of your life?" "Sure." "Who wouldn't want to scoff at a leader who just sits there drinking not knowing what to do?" "Sir..." "Go ahead." "Laugh at me." "If you want to laugh at me." "Laugh all you want!" "You need strength in order to win and courage in order to make a concession." "Concede to Supreme Commander Won Kyun just this once." "If he turns his fleet around, he can minimize the damage." "Reach out to him first." "Then Supreme Commander Won Kyun will help fight the misguided decisions of the King and his ministers." "Won Kyun is not your kind, Admiral." "Are you still putting hopes in him?" "One can argue that he is the one who put you in this white uniform." "How can you defend this man?" "First trust, General." "You must trust in order to change others." "Say something!" "I'm sure you have a lot to say!" "Yi Soon-shin wouldn't have let this happen." "Yi Soon-shin would have done this instead of that!" "In the six years of this war, less than 100 men have lost their lives under Yi Soon-shin's command." "But I've already lost 500 men." "What else?" "Admiral..." "Go ahead and say it!" "There is only one thing I want to say to you, Admiral." "You are the Supreme Commander of the Three Province Navy." "Not just myself but this entire navy depend on you to lead us no matter what you might think." "We are your men, sir." "We want to fight the enemy and win under your command." "So do I." "Admiral..." "I know how difficult it is for the highest commander to lead his fleet back to the base without having accomplished anything." "The Field Marshal, the Supreme Commissioner, and His Majesty's fury will not be easy to bear." "But you cannot sacrifice the entire navy to please them." "If you decide to return to the base, we will stand behind your decision all the way." "We will fight the royal court for you if we must." "Admiral, let us return to the base." "We still have over a hundred battleships and 8.000 sailors left." "If we go back, regroup and seal off Kyunneryang, we still have a chance." "You know that, sir." "Trust the loyalty of your men." "From high commanders to seaman recruits, no one will defy you." "Thirty years have passed  since that day you and I shot our arrows into the air for each other." "That's how we came together, and for a long time after that we were friends..." "Did you call, sir?" "Honor or safety of my men and my country..." "Constable Yi risked his neck asking me what's more important to me." "The answer should have been easy." "But I blew up in his face and removed him from service." "Why did I do that..." "Admiral..." "When I had vowed to myself to love and protect my men and my country when I first entered military service?" "I hope it isn't too late..." "I hope I could be friends with Yi Soon-shin again..." "Admiral..." "I will order Won Kyun's fleet to retreat to the headquarters." "Perhaps I should have faith in myself before I put faith in anyone else." "I'd like to think that I still have the courage to fight what is wrong and make it right." "I must be dreaming!" "Young-gap, pinch me." "I can't believe this is real!" "Kid..." "Are you sure Admiral Yi is coming back?" "Didn't you hear what they said?" "The Supreme Commander and the other officers are going to do everything they can to turn the King around." "So you boys just think about training harder when we get back to the base so we can really whip those Japanese this time." "I bet the two of you are happy." "Admiral Yi will be coming back soon." "You know that the first thing he'll do when he comes back is to put you back in your officers' uniforms!" "Oh, Dae-man..." "Lieutenant!" "It's the enemy!" "The enemy is coming!" "What's happening!" "Board!" "Board quickly!" "Get up!" "Don't panic!" "Get down!" "Get on board!" "Hurry!" "There is no other option." "We have to break through the enemy." "Admiral, the entire Soon-chun fleet has been destroyed." "What?" "Sir, we can't find the commander of Sado." "Who will command the Sado fleet?" "Are you telling he left his men and fled the battle?" "I'll take command of the Sado fleet." "They're my men to begin with." "Artillery!" "Hustle!" "Get to your station!" "Prepare the cannons!" "High Commander..." "Raise the flag!" "Advance!" "But not all of the ships are ready..." "There's no time to wait!" "Launch the ships that are ready!" "Yes, sir." "Advance!" "Advance!" "Strategic deception and surprise bombardment!" "It's too bad Yi Soon-shin isn't here to see this." "He should've been here to watch this fleet getting blown up into pieces using his own tactics." "Pull back a little." "Don't finish them off too quick." "It wouldn't be much fun if they got too scared and didn't board their ships." "But we can't fight the entire battle his way, Yoshihiro." "After all, we have our own style." "Board the Chosun vessels and slaughter them all!" "Aye!" "Approach the enemy vessels!" "Oh no!" "What do I do?" "Bastards!" "I can't think straight!" "Get on the drum!" "Now!" "We must get moving!" "We must get through the enemy!" "Hit the drum!" "Advance forward!" "The Turtle Ship is the strongest assault vessel on Chosun!" "What are you waiting for?" "Row!" "This is the end for the Turtle Ship..." "I must protect the turtle Ship!" "I can't let it burn to ashes!" "No matter what anyone says, no matter what kind of uniform you're wearing, you are the Director of Naval Construction." "Please take good care of the galleys and the assault vessels of Chosun the Turtle Ships." "Break through the enemy!" "Raise the flag!" "We will break through their barrier with the arrow formation!" "Yes, sir!" "Arrow formation!" "Raise the flag!" "Get us right next to the command ship!" "We must break through the enemy!" "Yes, sir!" "Board!" "Board!" "Keep them coming!" "I'll take on all of you!" "Sang-nam!" "Sang-nam!" "Sang-nam!" "Sang-nam!" "Don't die..." "Don't die, Sang-nam!" "Lt. Yi!" "Commander Yi!" "Full speed ahead!" "Get us out of here!" "Increase speed!" "Row at full speed!" "Admiral!" "Admiral!" "We broke through the enemy." "I'll set course for the headquarters." "General!" "The enemy command ship is getting away, sir." "I suppose we should go after him." "By title, he is the highest leader Of the Chosun Navy after all." "We can't let him live." "But there's no need to rush." "He's a rat in a trap anyway." "Admiral!" "Admiral!" "Kyunneryang is sealed off!" "Admiral!" "No!" "Into the woods!" "We cannot fight without a cover!" "Retreat!" "Retreat!" "Run for cover!" "Commander Woo..." "Yes, Admiral." "Am I still your superior?" "Am I still your superior?" "You know the answer to that question, sir." "Then this is my last command as your superior officer." "I will remind you that a superior's command is the martial law." "So this is where I die..." "Survive." "Survive and let my defeat be known to Yi Soon-shin." "That is my final command." "If only I had realized sooner..." "I was wrong and Yi Soon-shin was right." "If only I had realized that three, no, two days sooner my fleet could have been saved..." "At last I was prepared to protect the seas of Chosun with him..." "But Heaven will not allow me the chance..." "Make it back alive and faithfully serve Yi Soon-shin." "And protect this country Chosun and its people." "Let me be the last man that history will never forgive..."
