ARTICLE 34 OF THE CONSTITUTION OF THE REPUBLIC OF KOREA

Jun-ho, hey!

[liquor pouring]

Don't worry. We're the only ones in the world looking for this guy.

Come on, drink up, huh?

D.P.!

That's right, let loose.

Welcome to the Dirty Players Club!

Only then do we catch the bastard.

-[liquor pouring] -[Sung-woo laughing]

[unsettling music playing]

Wake up, Jun-ho.

Why do you look so hideous?

[chuckles]

[Sung-woo exhales] So how have you been?

Remember how I got kicked out of the unit right after you beat the hell out of me?

After that…

because of these rumors of how I was a deadbeat loser,

my father lost his reelection.

And due to the fact that he took out loans,

our family's got fucking wrecked now.

[sighs] I wanted to study abroad after I got discharged.

I can't study shit, man. [chuckles]

[inhales]

I became a non-com and extended my service to survive.

[chuckles softly]

Are you saving to study abroad? [chuckles]

I spent the whole last year building my body. Why?

So the next time I saw you, I'd kill you.

It's amusing, isn't it?

You haven't changed at all.

[Min-u] Can you bastards shut your damn mouths?

Hot-headed kids like you can't separate your personal life from the work, can you?

You should've checked the contents before you destroyed it,

you goddamn idiot.

I'm sorry, sir.

-[soft crackling] -[huffs]

-All right, it's done. Fuck! -[tool clanking]

[sighs]

[mouse clicking]

[sighs]

What is this?

DON'T JUST THROW AWAY YOUR COMPUTER CALL ME FOR REPAIRS AND BACKUP!

[Jun-ho] So you're saying there's no way to copy this?

But there has to be something you can do.

[exhales sharply]

I don't usually do stuff like this, okay?

[store employee sighs]

If we switch out the chip with this one here,

then that chip would be empty.

[store employee] Okay?

-What the fuck? -[slams table]

[Min-u] Is the original at that shop?

Do I look like a moron?

12. THE DAY

Sir!

A MILITARY CULTURE CREATED TOGETHER

[Du-gwan] You crazy bastards.

You assholes have lost your damn minds.

Showing insubordination to a superior officer.

This is an unbelievable disgrace!

You disobeyed your mission. You helped him get away.

He's not just a deserter, he stole top-secret intel.

It's a matter of national security, do you understand?

[Beom-gu] Apologies, sir.

Han Ho-yeol.

Fuck, your entire military service amounted to a pile of shit. Jesus!

Even your final days.

Oh, God.

And Beom-gu,

You let yourself be swayed by these lower-rank bastards, for fuck's sake?

Okay, we're all finished here.

Right. Great work.

You're on standby.

Don't even think about stepping off this base.

[door slams shut]

[breathing deeply]

[Beom-gu] This drives me crazy.

The way things are, won't Jun-ho be court-martialed?

It looks like it.

He could go to military prison if they charge him with aggravated assault.

What the hell is on that USB that could cause him to take things this far?

-Sergeant Park-- -Don't ask what I plan on doing,

because I don't know yet.

No, that's not it.

[brushes cap]

My delayed discharge, I think I'm ready now.

[comedy music sting]

What are you doing now?

He said my service amounted to shit

so I should speak with him, in private, before I go.

Salute.

Bye-bye.

[Beom-gu] Hey, Han Ho-yeol! Wait!

[Ho-yeol] I'm free!

[both sighing]

[hurried footsteps]

-Sir, there's a phone call for you. -What is it?

They said it's urgent.

Moron, I asked you what it is?

[Min-u sighs]

Hello?

[tense music playing]

Who are you?

Wow. [chuckling]

Being discharged is so nice.

Hello.

Hello, everyone.

Nice to see you.

Whoa.

[sighs]

Well, look at that.

I chose the perfect outfit for the vibe in here.

-[munching] -You said you wanted to see me?

Oh, no. I said you'd want to meet with me.

-[scoffs] -[Ho-yeol munching]

Your email was surprising to say the least.

[chimes]

[Du-gwan on recording] Hello.

I am Lieutenant Colonel Yang Du-gwan,

Commander of the 103rd Division, Military Police.

-General Gu Ja-woon… -[Ja-woon laughs]

…already knew the truth had been covered up,

at the time I sent Captain Lim and Sergeant Park to the GP.

During the investigation, he offered rewards and pressured me,

their direct commander.

He threatened me with his influence

-over personnel appointments. -[chuckling]

[exhales deeply]

What did you do?

Huh?

[chuckles softly]

[Du-gwan] What?

You better explain yourself.

The soldier, Park Se-ung…

Private Park Se-ung.

Se-ung's father runs an academy and you used your power,

to get your son accepted, right? You paid for it with our unit's account.

Why could that be?

So he could go to high school over in… the States. Boston.

It's a green card hack… to dodge the army.

[Du-gwan huffs]

-Hey, hey! -Huh?

Don't blank out on me.

I'm gonna need one favor.

[intriguing music playing]

[scoffs]

What an idiot.

So then…

what do you hope to achieve here?

It's the word of one person.

Want one?

You smart-ass bastard.

Don't you dare!

[breathing heavily]

If you so much as touch a hair on my head,

I'll blast that recording all over social media.

I know you're a big shot, but there are others bigger than you.

[chuckling]

So what do you want?

You have to put a stop to the arrest warrant,

and suspend all your operations.

Then, I'll bring you the original USB before the trial.

[Ja-woon] Ah…

Putting your neck out for your junior?

This means you work for us.

Does Park Beom-gu agree with this course of action?

[Min-u] What about An Jun-ho?

Jun-ho's feelings on this are immaterial.

All I care about is keeping Jun-ho safe from harm.

[tense music playing]

[scoffs]

[Sung-woo] So, what's it feel like being in cuffs?

Just shut up.

[Sung-woo chuckling]

Jun-ho, you're going to military prison.

It makes that little jail on the base look like a resort.

[scoffs]

-[phone buzzing] -[seat belt clanking]

Hello, sir. I'm transporting the prisoner now.

[Min-u] Turn the car around. Come back to the office.

-Repeat that, please? -I said come back to the base.

The arrest warrant wasn't issued.

Is there a problem, sir?

I thought you said transport him to prison

-and then go to Yongsan to find the USB-- -Staff Sergeant Park Sung-woo.

Stop running your mouth.

It's an order.

-[line disconnects] -Sorry, sir. Hello?

Shit. What the fuck is that?

[groans]

This is total fucking bullshit.

[Sung-woo exhales sharply]

[tires screeching]

How many people have you put under arrest?

What?

I wonder if you've cuffed anyone before?

What the fuck are you going on about now?

You've got a big head.

Little Jun-ho's…

a big boy now.

No, it's not that.

I've cuffed a lot of people.

I've found these can break.

[clanks]

-Motherfucker. -[tires screeching]

[Sung-woo grunts]

[tires screeching]

-[slams] -[metal clanking]

[Jun-ho moans]

[Jun-ho] Oh, shit…

[Jun-ho groans]

[moaning]

[panting]

[grunts]

-[clattering] -Why won't this fucking open?

-Yeah, run, you asshole. -[Jun-ho breathing heavily]

-I'm gonna kill you next time I catch you. -[Jun-ho] Oh, shit.

Fuck.

[Jun-ho groans]

[cuffs clanking]

[pensive music playing]

[Jun-ho] If that's the problem…

then who the hell is gonna deal with it, huh?

[phone buzzing]

[pensive music continues]

HAN HO-YEOL

I STOPPED JUN-HO'S ARREST WARRANT FROM BEING ISSUED

I'LL FIND THE USB DRIVE AND PROTECT HIM

DON'T TRY TO STOP ME

[knocking]

Sir, there's someone here looking for Jun-ho.

What?

Jun-ho's still missing.

Yes, she said if not him, that maybe, um, the two of you could meet.

You and I have met before…

[Hye-yeon] …when my little brother was in the hospital.

[somber music playing]

There's something I need to hear.

Or maybe there's something you need to tell me.

EVIDENCE ITEM USED TO COMMIT SUICIDE

[Hye-yeon] A while ago, a man came to pay his respects,

he said he was my brother's junior.

[sighs] Jun-ho.

Jun-ho wasn't your brother's junior.

He's the D.P. who pursued your brother.

[Beom-gu] I'm sorry.

[Hye-yeon] There's no way I can forgive him.

For all that's happened.

[Beom-gu] I can't say that I understand it either.

But I know Jun-ho was going to tell you the truth later.

To take the responsibility.

[shattering]

You bastard. You killed him.

[wistful music playing]

-[grunting] -[Beom-gu] After Shin Woo-suk…

-Bastard! -Get off him!

Your younger brother dying that way, Jun-ho became desperate.

-[Jun-ho grunts, growls] -Stop!

It was almost as if, he kept trying to find an answer where there was none.

[Jun-ho sighs]

It was the same for all of us,

but for Jun-ho, especially.

[Hye-yeon] What are you saying?

That's all just bullshit and you know it.

[exhales deeply]

Well, you're not wrong.

Around here,

we can't really do much.

[Hye-yeon inhales]

[exhales] Listen to you…

Like nothing can be done about it.

[Hye-yeon sighs]

I'm sick of it.

[sniffles]

Not giving up on the answer to that question… [inhales]

…it drove me…

and it cost my family…

[sobs]

[Hye-yeon sniffling]

Do you believe that Private Kim Ru-ri deserves the death penalty?

Corporal Jeong Hyeong-beom was shot in the thigh.

He didn't receive medical attention for over an hour.

He died due to blood loss.

The USB that An Jun-ho wanted to give to me

had evidence that supported that.

You're saying it was the military that made Corporal Jeong die?

-That could be a stretch. -Yes!

However, they have a duty.

A promise to our soldiers.

To protect them and save them

when the soldiers got injured.

[Hye-yeon sighs]

You're right.

Sometimes I think…

about how the military is, and I don't know if…

I could send my child to serve.

[door closes]

[sighs]

-Mom. -[gasps]

[exhales] Jun-ho.

Your face…

Have you eaten yet?

You always ask the same question.

Thank you for the food.

Eat the rest.

[crunching]

[Jun-ho sighs]

Please don't worry, Mom.

I have to finish something, then I'll go back.

Bye.

Your base called.

[Jun-ho's mom sighs] The man said to please call.

He said he was your superior.

The man who called me,

he sounded desperate, son.

[store employee sighs] How many times do I have to tell you?

He took the original.

-Cut me some slack, all right? -[keyboard clacking]

Gi-yeon's my friend. You know, we're brothers in arms.

Heo Gi-yeong, I'm gonna kill him. Such a jackass.

Sir, I only need a little information. It would really help me.

I really don't remember anything. I'm telling you.

It's time for you to go! God!

[phone buzzing]

[buzzing continues]

Sergeant Park, if you're gonna try and stop me--

[Beom-gu] No.

Let's do as you said. Find the USB and hand it over to Gu Ja-woon.

What made you suddenly change your mind, though?

While taking Jun-ho, he ran away.

With how this has played out,

we have to catch him first, and hand over the USB.

That's our best play.

[sighs] It's not my top choice,

but we can't let him go to prison.

Jun-ho will definitely show up at the trial tomorrow.

Don't miss him.

[Ho-yeol] Yes, sir. I'll catch him no matter what.

[people protesting]

[reporter] Today is the day.

The trial for the lawsuit of the Military Human Rights Center

has brought upon the government for compensation…

"OUR SON" WHEN HE ENLISTS "YOUR SON" WHEN HE GETS HURT

Here in front of the courthouse,

people from the Human Rights Center are demanding state compensation,

while the victims' family members are protesting against the lawsuit

-and protection of the criminals. -[clamoring]

[tense music playing]

Colonel Seo.

[sighs]

[Ja-woon] Excuse me…

-Attorney Seo. -[Eun chuckles]

Thanks to a certain someone.

There he is.

You're waiting for him, right?

Your star witness here,

I wouldn't bank on him saying too much.

[whispers] I'm so sorry.

Are you really that desperate?

Not only are you representing yourself in the trial,

you're silencing the witness.

Jeez, how unimpressive.

Ma'am, say what you will. But what's relevant here,

is that you have no material witness today.

[Ji-seop] How are you the best judge on whether she has

a material witness or not?

[Ji-seop exhales]

-You-- -We're down 100 points and…

losing the testimony of Kim Ru-ri is just another point.

Consider yourself warned.

This woman fights till she breaks.

[laughs]

Great.

So as a husband and wife, you will break together.

[Ja-woon chuckling]

-Jesus. -So if we're…

101 points down…

how do you expect we win?

He's on the way.

We stall them until the USB arrives.

I spoke with him on the phone.

[tense music playing]

[gavel banging]

[bailiff] All rise.

[bailiff] Please be seated.

We will now begin the trial for compensation for damages,

PLAINTIFF

filed by the Military Human Rights Center, the plaintiff,

DEFENDANT

against the State, the defendant.

You will see that these cases and evidence of this trial,

were put together for show by the plaintiff.

Shall we examine one?

One case in question

involves a senior officer beating an unruly soldier.

The junior officer fought back and assaulted the senior officer.

This case has already been to trial.

The lawsuit claimed that the military was negligent,

and the situation lacked proper oversight.

The verdict was decisive.

The fight was an impulsive violent eruption

that the commanding officers could not have foreseen.

Our state supervisors and officers who were there

could not be held responsible.

[Eun inhales]

And now,

Kim Ru-ri here impulsively started shooting fellow soldiers,

a tragedy no one could have predicted.

The comparison of Kim Ru-ri's case to this one

is unfair and cannot serve as precedent.

In the case of Kim Ru-ri, he suffered constant verbal and physical abuse

while he was honoring his service.

Even though administrators witnessed instances of abuse,

it seems that they overlooked and condoned this behavior.

Do you have any intention of substantiating these claims?

There is a case where compensation was awarded to a soldier

-who attempted suicide due to depression-- -The soldier with depression

-did not shoot his fellow soldiers. -Yes.

Nobody else was shot, that's true.

The point is, one of the main factors was the lack of action by the State,

which is why they were found responsible.

That is why this case should serve as precedent.

The defendant should not use inappropriate precedents

to denounce the claims made by the plaintiff.

To get to the case at hand,

the one central to the plaintiff's lawsuit,

Kim Ru-ri's case,

it happened at 22:07 hours, on the 4th of April.

Private Kim finished guard duty.

[Ja-woon] When he entered the barracks, he was still armed.

He then fired 14 rounds of live ammunition

at unarmed soldiers resting in their barracks.

[all gasping]

-As a result… -[man] Is he crazy?

eight soldiers were wounded, and two were murdered in cold blood.

Your Honor, unlike the plaintiff, this is not just a claim.

This is the simple truth.

The investigation shows the facts,

which are backed up by the forensics of the crime scene

and Kim Ru-ri's own confession.

This means the government fulfilled its responsibilities.

Objection, Your Honor.

In terms of Jeong Hyeong-beom's death, it's still unclear whether he died

-immediately due to the shooting-- -Do you have evidence to prove this claim?

Also, if Jeong Hyeong-beom's death wasn't immediate,

is he not still responsible?

If nothing was done when he could have been saved, it's neglect.

You heard her say "if," didn't you?

Even the plaintiff's counsel is confused about their main argument.

The facts are simple.

Private Kim Ru-ri came in and shot down his fellow soldiers,

showing no remorse!

Fourteen rounds of ammunition!

[breathing shakily]

Who could do such a thing, to their friends in arms.

Yet somehow…

it's the State who's responsible?

Your argument makes no sense.

I'm curious to know what you all think about it?

[somber music playing]

[audience murmuring]

[tense music playing]

COURTHOUSE - BACK ENTRANCE AUTHORIZED PERSONNEL ONLY

[Ho-yeol] I told you I'd catch you, kid.

[breathes deeply]

You want to be the hero and throw the last punch, huh?

Beom-gu sent me.

You've done all you can.

Let's stop this now.

I don't believe I've done all I can.

Just give me the USB.

I need it, or you'll end up going to jail.

[Jun-ho] Remember Suk-bong?

Back then…

we did all we could then, right?

Uh-huh.

In any case, it doesn't matter.

I have to put you into custody, just until the trial is over.

[Sung-woo] Wow, fuck.

The camaraderie is touching.

Oh, is this some kind of D.P. reunion?

Sorry, Ho-yeol, but Jun-ho is mine.

I found Jun-ho, sir.

[Min-u] Okay. First check the USB

-and then-- -[phone beeps]

Are you ready?

[line disconnects]

That crazy son of a bitch. [clicks tongue]

[Min-u] Well, the USB's either here or there anyway.

[chuckling]

[fighting grunts]

[both groaning]

[tense music playing]

[both grunting]

This time's not so easy.

You asshole.

[Ho-yeol] Hey, Park Sung-woo!

[both grunt]

[Ho-yeol] Shit.

-[Sung-woo grunts] -[Ho-yeol screams]

-[Ho-yeol grunts, groans] -[Jun-ho] Damn it.

[fighting grunts]

[Jun-ho groans]

Where do you think you're going, motherfucker?

[Ho-yeol screams]

[Sung-woo screaming]

-[Ho-yeol grunts] -[Sung-woo moans]

[Sung-woo] Fuck.

-Son of a bitch! -[Ho-yeol] Give me the USB! [grunts]

[struggling grunts]

Shit.

[choking]

Do you feel better?

Getting revenge.

Beating me up makes the anger go away?

Shut up, asshole!

You don't know what I've been through!

-[Sung-woo grunting] -[choking]

You're doing this

-to ease your guilty conscience. [choking] -[struggling grunts]

Shit.

-[Ho-yeol screams] -[Sung-woo yelps]

-[car horn honking] -[all grunt]

[all groaning]

[Sung-woo] Fuck.

[tense music playing]

The storage lockers in the station, meet me there.

Plaintiff, do you have any evidence to submit?

If you don't, uh…

Wait. Wait, you requested that a witness give testimony.

Then come,

-Kim Ru-ri, please take the stand. -[Eun] Your Honor…

I would like to request a different witness.

-[inhales sharply] -[audience murmuring]

Plaintiff calls Captain Lim Ji-seop to the stand,

an officer of the Military Police.

Captain Lim was not only involved in the Kim Ru-ri incident,

but also with the case concerning Cho Suk-bong,

which likely influenced the Kim Ru-ri incident.

He was the officer in charge of the platoon.

That is a reach.

And nobody had more access to this than the Captain.

I would urge this court

to listen to what the captain has to say

and form their own conclusions

about who is really accountable.

[audience murmuring]

[audience whispering]

[judges mumbling]

Now, now…

I will allow the request. Take the stand, please.

[audience murmuring]

[judge] Captain Lim Ji-seop, please come forward.

You D.P. bitches!

[Ho-yeol groans]

[Sung-woo pants, grunts]

[struggling grunts]

[grunts, pants]

[Jun-ho groans]

[sucks teeth]

[both panting]

[Jun-ho] Enough.

[Sung-woo grunting]

Park Sung-woo.

What?

I…

[whimpers] I'm sorry…

[inhales sharply]

…about everything.

Don't fucking apologize, you son of a bitch!

Did you think I knew that bastard would die, huh?

Huh? How could I?

I never knew he would kill himself.

[Jun-ho wheezing]

Hey, you son of a bitch!

Sung-woo, fucking stop it now, please!

-[both grunt] -[Sung-woo groans]

[Sung-woo] Fuck the D.P.

[Ho-yeol] Jesus.

It's over, okay? Shit!

[whimpering]

[pants, groans]

[Ho-yeol] Jun-ho, let's go, okay?

[Jun-ho moans]

[Ho-yeol] Please, I'm asking.

[panting]

The USB, you jerk.

[exhales]

I'm so sorry.

Just hand it over, asshole!

-Stop. -[Ho-yeol grunts]

Come here. Give it to me, damn it.

Give it to me.

[Jun-ho] Damn it.

-[car horn honking] -[both grunt]

[man] What the fuck are you doing?

[both moaning]

Jesus! Give it to me, you bastard!

I do solemnly swear to tell the truth,

the whole truth, and nothing but the truth,

under pains and penalties of perjury.

[judge] Plaintiff's counsel, you may begin your questioning.

[Ji-seop exhales, clears throat]

Yes. Witness.

Can you tell us and the court

any information you know related to this case?

[soft whispers]

One thing that I know that I believe Attorney Seo already stated,

is in the case of Corporal Jeong,

he was shot in the thigh during the first round of shots

that Kim Ru-ri fired.

The arrival of the rescue helicopter was delayed, and he was…

alive for approximately an hour and a half.

[audience gasping]

[woman] What is he saying?

[audience exclaiming, murmuring]

[exhales sharply]

[Ja-woon] Your Honor.

Objection.

He is making unsubstantiated claims--

You would know if you are a part of the Korean Military, as I am,

that what I'm telling you right now can happen

and is not impossible at all.

[judge] Please.

As a witness, only say what you can substantiate.

Okay.

Till now… [sighs]

during my tenure, as a captain serving in the Republic of Korea Army,

I have never seen anything as terrible as this before.

[Ji-seop exhales deeply]

So then what on earth are we supposed to do in that situation?

[sobs]

What could we have done that could be considered the right response?

It's a simple answer.

[sighs]

We wait for an order to come in.

[clock ticking]

[Hyeong-beom] Please save me.

[clock ticking]

[Ji-seop] I would like everyone here to imagine this once.

[Hyeong-beom weakly] Please, help.

[clock ticking]

[whimpers]

Mom.

[Ji-seop] It's a remote area.

On the front lines, right at the DMZ.

[clock ticking]

In order for a rescue helicopter to fly over an area that's close to the border,

they would have needed permission from the command.

REQUEST FOR RESCUE HELICOPTER PUT ON HOLD

STAND BY UNTIL ORDERS ARE RECEIVED FROM HIGHER COMMAND

Someone save me, please!

Someone!

[inaudible cries]

[Ji-seop] And we all know…

["Shine in Your Blue" by Kriz playing]

We all know that at times those in higher command are not there

so they don't grasp the urgency

and there is a delay before we get an official to give us permission.

Does that make it okay for a person to kill

because he was brutally abused?

No, I don't believe it does.

Does a person deserve to die because he abused someone?

No, I don't believe they do.

So what is your point then?

Here's the point I'm trying to make.

Nobody should have to die waiting,

waiting on a captain like me to get the order from a superior to save them.

Cho Suk-bong.

[quiet sobs]

Kim Ru-ri.

Jeong Hyeong-beom.

[sniffles in distance]

Even Na Jung-seok.

[inhales sharply]

It's because of the systems we created.

Those are your opinions. We've heard enough.

It's the individual that is at fault in all those--

Then why do all those individuals happen to be lumped together?

[Ji-seop] For what reason did they join the military?

To protect this country, that's why they all joined the military.

They all lived together, and one of them tried to kill the others.

The State's somehow not responsible?

There's no proof or direct correlation?

Can you tell me what these soldiers signed up to defend

and what kind of country is behind it?

Objection!

-This entire testimony is objective… -[door slams open]

and unsubstantiated--

[audience chattering indistinctly]

[suspenseful music playing]

[locker clanking]

I guess you came to find the USB?

[metal clanking]

I'm sorry, Sergeant Han.

I don't have the USB anymore.

What's that mean?

[Eun] Your Honor.

I would like to submit evidence

that will substantiate Captain Lim Ji-seop's testimony.

Corporal Jeong's autopsy report

and a second about Kim Ru-ri that tracked his bullets.

It is evidence that proves that it was not an immediate death.

[audience chattering indistinctly]

-[Eun whispers] Well done. -[Beom-gu pants]

This is the initial report before any revisions were made.

The source of that evidence is unknown. That evidence is inadmissible.

[Beom-gu] I am the source.

[exhales]

Military Police, Sergeant Park Beom-gu, Your Honor.

You're Military Police.

Now remember who you are!

[breathing deeply]

You're welcome, sir.

[Jun-ho] Sergeant Park,

it's me, An Jun-ho.

My mother said you wanted me to call you.

Hello, this is Shin Hye-yeon.

[inhales sharply]

I heard the whole story.

About what happened back then.

And what it was that you wanted to tell me.

[Jun-ho sighs]

[Jun-ho] I'm sorry.

[breathing deeply]

You don't need to be sorry.

For you and I…

what matters is tomorrow.

I'll be the one to deliver the USB to the court tomorrow.

During the trial, Captain Lim will drag things out by testifying as a witness.

Wait, I'm confused. What do you mean by that?

Sung-woo, Oh Min-u, and Ho-yeol will chase you and Ms. Shin.

You and Hye-yeon need to create a distraction.

-Sir, what do you mean… -Just listen, you punk. It's okay.

Trust me.

Jun-ho…

The USB, where is it?

[Ho-yeol] Hang on.

This was all a distraction to buy time?

[inhales] Hey, dumbass, don't you see?

Beom-gu tricked the both of us.

Did you think exposing them would be that easy?

[unsettling music playing]

[judge] I will now announce the verdict taking into account

the plaintiff's evidence.

The judicial assessment and verdict

concerning the compensation due in this lawsuit,

that was filed by the plaintiff, the military victims and related persons,

against the defendant, the State,

is as follows.

[quiet sobs]

Verdict.

The court accepts the plaintiff's claim

in regards to compensation against the State, which includes the military.

It also includes commanders, prosecutors, and investigators.

[audience exclaiming]

-[indistinct chatter] -[exhales sharply]

[somber music playing]

-However… -[scoffs]

the acknowledgement includes some cases.

As for the other cases,

it was decided that some evidence is needed.

Therefore, the ruling would be delayed.

[audience chatter indistinctly]

[gavel banging]

[bailiff] The court is now adjourned.

[Ru-ri exhales]

[sobbing]

Don't… Don't worry.

[sobbing]

I'm… I'm sorry.

I'm… I'm sorry.

-[whimpers] -[Ru-ri sobbing]

[Ru-ri] I'm sorry. I'm… I'm sorry for all I've done.

Mom, don't worry.

Mom, don't worry.

Take care of yourself.

-Mom, don't worry! -[all sobbing]

[whimpering]

[man] It's over.

[Ru-ri's mom crying]

Great work.

[sighs] You too.

[Ja-woon] I guess this counts as a tie?

[chuckles]

You know there will be consequences.

[slamming]

Shit.

Sir.

[Beom-gu sighs]

Sergeant First Class Park,

you are charged with leaking classified information and violating…

[cuffs clinking]

[lock rattling]

[Beom-gu exhales]

[both panting]

Oh, no. Sergeant Park.

[Beom-gu sighs]

Let's have a smoke, then we'll go.

[Beom-gu exhales deeply]

Why would you…

Why…

Why… Why did you do that, Sergeant Park?

I'm the one who started this.

Think about what you've done. You didn't see this coming?

[both sobbing]

[sad music playing]

Hey, D.P.'s.

Hey, D.P.'s!

-Yes… Yes, sir. -[sniffles]

[quiet sobs]

Enjoy life when you're on the outside.

And don't slack off too much, you punk.

Okay. [sniffles]

After your stint in jail, continue to work hard and serve with integrity

until the end.

[sniffles]

Even if it's a shithole.

Understood?

Mm… Yes.

[sad music continues]

[sniffles]

[Beom-gu] It's okay.

It's okay, boys.

[sobbing]

[sniffles]

Oh, shit.

[Beom-gu] Let's go.

[quiet sobbing]

[sad music fading]

[bird squawking]

CORRECTIONS

[sighs deeply]

Is this a joke?

See, didn't I say that this would be taking things a bit too far?

You were so creative getting yourself into prison,

I thought you'd like to eat creative too.

You bastard, I swear…

No problem, I'll eat it.

Give it here.

Well done.

But, sir, will this be worth it?

You're locked up in here, sir,

and we didn't even win--

[Beom-gu] Did we lose, then?

[chuckles softly]

Next time, we'll win.

[sighs]

Stop saying dumb crap,

and go get me some cigarettes at the commissary.

-But smoking's not allowed. -[sucks teeth]

And I'm taking this opportunity to sneak one.

[Ho-yeol] All right.

Come on.

Let's go.

[chair clanking]

[door opens, closes]

[Ji-seop sighs]

I wonder why you didn't let me join you?

Hmm?

You've taken all the blame.

Well, if someone has to lose his job,

it's better it's a lowly sergeant than the captain.

Not everyone gets to be the hero.

[exhales]

You had to stay. Someone needs to take care of the boys, you know.

Sergeant Park Beom-gu.

You know…

You've taught me so very much.

I appreciate it.

[plaintive music playing]

[Beom-gu sighs deeply]

[chuckles] The tofu was my idea.

-[Ji-seop laughs] -Of course it was.

[Ji-seop sighs]

[wistful music playing]

TO INCHEON

TO YONGDAM-RI

[Ho-yeol sighs deeply]

Hmm. To think it's our last time in a terminal together.

Does it make you sad?

I don't feel sad one bit, okay?

I couldn't feel better.

-I'll always keep in touch. -Don't bother.

I have never seen a junior contact their superior after a discharge.

And I hate when people contact me on a personal basis.

Let's stop here.

[Ho-yeol sighs] Hmm…

Jun-ho.

[Ho-yeol inhales sharply]

I guess we're all done now, right?

What are you talking about? I don't think I've even gotten started.

[sad acoustic music playing]

-[woman on PA] The 3:30 p.m. bus… -Oh, my bus is here.

-…will soon be departing. -[Ho-yeol sighs]

[woman on PA] All passengers, please come to the boarding zone to board the bus.

I repeat.

The 3:30 p.m. bus to Incheon will soon be departing.

All passengers, please come to the boarding zone to board…

It'll take a long time to get there so rest up.

Sleep is vital for a D.P., you know?

Brother…

Goodbye.

See you.

[bus door hissing, beeping]

[woman laughing in distance]

[woman 1] Seriously, is he gonna come or what?

-[man] Why aren't they coming? -[woman 2] Don't be mad.

-Hey, guys. -Hey. Sorry, I'm really late.

-It wasn't me. -So annoying.

It's him. He went to the bathroom.

[woman 3] You guys wanna get coffee after this?

-[man 2] Come on. -Yeah.

[indistinct chatter]

[woman 1] Let's go.

Come on.

Hey, what are you doing?

[bus engine rumbling]

[acoustic music playing]

[Jun-ho] I've met so many people in the military.

And I've said goodbyes to many, too.

Will they remember me?

Will I be able to remember them?

364 DAYS UNTIL DISCHARGE

[ballad instrumental music playing]

[static over speaker]

[man on PA] This is an announcement from the administrator.

Private Jun-ho, report to the front gate.

I repeat. Private Jun-ho, report to the front gate.

[indistinct chatter in distance]

[all laughing]

Let's go and enjoy this, huh?

Excuse me. Are you the one who's looking for…

[soft instrumental music playing]

[chuckles softly]

Hello, Jun-ho.

[chuckles]
