"Who gave the order?" "We have direct orders from the captain." "Name." "Rank." "Identification number." "Don't waste my time." "Be it execution or torture, hurry up and get it done." "There will be no torture." "Such barbaric practices influenced by Japanese imperialism only exist in the south." "The village where you had been hiding was subjugated today." "Your mission has already failed." "You should be well aware that there is no hope for you." "Our superiors already ordered us to execute your whole squad on sight." "Cooperate with us to locate the rest of your squad." "That is your only chance of survival." "We found it at the beach." "I suggest you make up your mind quickly." "Should we locate them by ourselves first, any deal is off the table." "I'm scared." "I fear what will happen if we ever meet again, after I cross the border." "Do me a favor." "Don't ever join the front." "I'm asking you." "Our fallen comrades' bodies are still warm." "They must have attacked them right before we arrived." "But, Comrade Seongil?" "What?" "He was part of 1st Security Squad as well." "Where is he?" "I have no idea." "Proceed immediately." "Search the area!" "Why?" "To find whom, Sir?" "The infiltrators, or Comrade Seongil?" "Find the both of them!" "Yes." "As you wish." " Squad!" "Move." " Yes!" "That should more or less do it." "Sergeant Park!" "Don't act like this with him." "You're telling me you don't remember him, from 2nd platoon?" "He's the one who would always try to hide himself during combat." "Give it a rest." "He was the one who deserted and joined the enemy." "He's not one of us anymore." " Taeksu..." " Ahh..." "Really, listen to him..." "Enough!" "A traitor won't hesitate to betray you again." "He's NKPA now." "If there's nothing we can exchange him with, execution is all that awaits him." "Ahh..." "Really, you foolish twat." "How did you manage to join the enemy?" "I'm sorry." "I just ran away, and was captured by the PLA." "There was nothing I could do." "I mean it." "Then, have you been fighting our forces all this time?" "I mean..." "Have you killed any of our men?" "No..." "All I did was hide." "So at least that hasn't changed, uh?" "Anyhow, I'm glad you didn't kill any of our men." "Stay away from him!" "What?" "Yes, Sir." " 2nd squad, copy." " We're still looking." "Nothing so far." " What are you doing?" " Nothing to report yet." "It's the emergency frequency." "The sergeant might use it to contact us." "And how would he do that, without any radio equipment?" "Let's not waste our time." "Shouldn't we at least try whatever we can?" "They might be holding him prisoner." "In that case, he'll be already dead." "You've seen how they dealt with those guerrilla soldiers to get their intel." "If those same men got hold of the sergeant, there's no hope." "There is no way." " Wouldn't he manage to..." " Let's be realistic." "The sergeant is not some kind of immortal deity." "Then, how are you going to proceed?" "We'll infiltrate the supply base tomorrow, right as planned." "All we have is two days, so there's no time for hesitation." "Are you confident we can make it?" "That we can do it even without the sergeant?" "I have no confidence." "We're just doing it." "Our mission states that even a lone survivor... will have to fight to his death to complete it." "So unless you want to desert like he did, that is all you can do." "How do you suppose we do it?" "We haven't even taken a look at the premises." "I... could help you with that." "I mean it." "She's my sister." "We enlisted together last August." "And even this time, we came together." "What forced two sisters to enlist together?" "The fact we needed a medal of honor." "After working with communist sympathizers, our father defected to the north." "From that day forward, people branded us as commies, and made our life impossible." "Our only way out was the front." "It was to wipe away those accusations by fighting and killing those same commies." "And that is why we joined the marines." "My sister and I pledged to each other we would fight to our deaths, and bring dignity back to our family." "We thought that was the only way... our poor mother and little brother could have a decent future." "Brother?" "Yes." "He's aged fifteen, and a diligent, good-looking student." "But... now it's all over for us." "Don't lose hope." "The rest of our squad will do everything to complete this mission." "I have no expectations." "Here it is." "You will find a small pathway leading there." "Take it all the way, and it will lead you right to the center of the supply base." "Seems like it was used in the past by those collecting herbs." "And you're telling me they'd leave such a crucial pathway unattended?" "No." "The entire area is now filled with landmines." "Listen to you..." "And how can we possibly pass through safely?" "Give us something we can work with, will you?" "There is one way to avoid those mines." "If you head south of this post, the path here is clear." "It should be around a meter wide." "It's what Special Ops used on their way back from planting the mines." "How many men are guarding that base?" "A very significant number, consider all transport to and from." "But none of them are armed." "Afraid any stray bullets could set off those explosives, none of those men carry weapons inside." "Ahh..." "Also, during meals, they only leave a few men guarding the entrance, and no one inside." "With the scarcity of food, if you come late you risk leaving empty-handed." "When are they eating?" "10 in the morning and 4 in the afternoon, only two meals." "It only takes them about twenty minutes per meal." "All right, you can go." "Yes." "If this turns out to be a lie," "your death will be slow and painful." "Go back there." "They'll scold you." "It's too cold there." "Twenty minutes will never be enough." "It's all we have, there's no other option." "Mission starts at 1000 hours, during meal time." "Are we going to bank everything on what he told us?" "I'll lead in front while we go through the minefield." "Should I be killed by a mine, you immediately turn back and execute him on the spot." "Here..." "Reload your weapons and make a final check of the explosives." " Yes, Sir." " Yes." "Looks like they're preparing for their mission." "There's nobody left to give us orders now." "Just the two of us." ""Still" the two of us, you mean." "Right..." "It's still the two of us left." "Now that I think about it, you've been by my side for a long time." "Even longer than my late husband." "You were a pretty good catch, yourself." "So why did you end up marrying Gyeongdeuk?" "He wasn't strong as you are." "Those frail hands of his were caressing books all day long." "I always worried how a man like him would have survived... among the rugged men who live here." "So that's why." "Gangchil." "All I'd ask for right now... is to see him one more time." "They should have been dealt with on the spot." "Why carry them all the way here?" "We cannot execute a surrenderer." "Enough with that sanctimonious claptrap!" "Don't you know that execution would have won us praise, whereas getting nothing out of them while alive will only result in criticism?" "I will convince them to cooperate." "And how will you do that, without betraying those "noble" principles?" "If they don't give us anything tangible by the morning, bring them outside and execute them on the spot." "That's an order!" "What's the matter?" "There's something strange going on with one of the prisoners." "Private Choi!" "Wake up!" "Private Choi!" "Private Choi!" "What's wrong?" "She's wounded." "We need a doctor immediately." "Now!" "Did you get the captain's consent?" "We will get no intel if she dies." "I'll take full responsibility." " Did we get the anesthetic supplies?" " Not yet, Sir." " Get her something to bite into." " Yes, Sir." "You better leave us alone here, things will get noisy." "Thanks." "For?" "Enemy or not, treating an injured soldier is just..." "I thought you died." "Last winter." "And even if you had indeed made it, I prayed we would never meet again." "What brought you back here?" "An order." "And why did it have to be you?" "Because of your past in the Independence Army OSS?" " It wasn't that." " Then, what?" "From the very beginning," "I often blamed myself for all this." "Ever since an eighteen-year-old girl like me... started stealing glances at a man well over his twenties." "If I hadn't done that to begin with, the Japanese Army would have never taken you." "What are you..." "Help!" "Don't..." "Stay away..." "Don't!" "No!" "From that day onwards, you spent your life with a rifle in hand." "It always followed you around, even when you frantically escaped the Japanese." "First it was the Independence Army, and then the Border Defense Guard." "It's time you stop trying to protect someone with that rifle." "From here on in, only worry about surviving." "Forget everything else." "I came here fully prepared to die." "If they order your execution, I will be entrusted with it." "I beg you, cooperate with us." "Please." " Found anything?" " Nothing." "How far did you get?" "A three-kilometer radius." "Our men are tired, so it's slowing us down." "We couldn't close an eye the last three days." "Continue, they will soon prepare their next move." "And I'm sure they captured Comrade Seongil." "Yes." "As you wish, Sir." " Move!" " Yes." "Hurry up and get going!" "That's the one." "The minefield begins here." "Don't lose sight of my footsteps." "Let's move." "Cheon Seongil, you son of a bitch..." "Are you all right?" "It's okay." "Go..." "Just go!" "Let's get moving!" "Unload everything!" "Meal time!" "Let's join them." "What the hell is wrong with them?" "It's meal time, Sir." "Are you people out of your mind?" "Return to your posts immediately!" "Do it!" "Guards!" "Call Special Ops HQ." "Deploy all ambush units back here for security!" "Yes, Sir." "What's this?" "He didn't say the way would be blocked." "The wood is still fresh, so it could have been added recently." "Let's all do it." "One..." "Two..." "Three!" "Again." "One..." "Two..." "Let's move out." "We'll come again." "Sangil!" "What are you doing?" "Out of the way!" "Move!" "Enough!" "Let's go." "This all happened because of me, so how can I just leave?" "Forget it and let's go!" "Uh?" "!" "Sergeant Park!" "Comrade." "You'll have to give me that before you go in." "Or we'll be executed if we let you take it." " I'll take over." " See you later." "Are you all right, Private Choi?" "I'm sure you're using a special frequency for emergency communications." "Contact your squad and call them to the guard post southwest of here." "If you refuse to comply, she will be executed." "Wait five minutes, and if he still refuses, open fire on the woman." "Yes." " Area 29 " "I'm sorry." "Drop it." "Now!" "Set him free." "What the hell is going on?" "Hands up." "Turn." "Proceed slowly." "Free the way!" "Move away!" "Kill them all!" "Trail them immediately!" "Let's start." "Yang Sangil." "You guard the entrance." "Kill anyone trying to come in." "Yes." "We'll rendezvous back here in ten minutes." "What's that sound?" "Just leave it." "It's probably that comrade from Special Ops." "They'll hear us!" "Continue." "It's ready."

"~ On The Next Episode Of ~ C O M R A D E S" " They cut off the wire." " They did what?" "How is that possible?" " Fall back!" " Sangil is still inside!" "Hurry up!" "No!" " Sangil!" " Confess!" " Is that the only reason?" " Don't!" "Because you want to survive?" "Is that all?" "Private Choi." "I'll begin with him."
