Heaven's Soldiers
The nuke will be handed over...
at 13:00 tomorrow.
Thus, this facility will be shut down, too.
Permanently.
I saw this coming.
Damn Yankees!
They would never let us have nuclear weapons.
It's not only the US.
But Japan and China as well.
Our governments can't...
Until when do we have to play the underdog?
I won't let them take the nuke from us.
What do you suggest? Going to war?
If they threaten us, we should.
Calm down, KANG.
I'm frustrated, too.
Though we've built a nuke,
we're no match for them.
Nuclear armaments were a brilliant idea.
But it was farfetched.
You know why Arabic countries
can't mess with Israel?
It's nuclear weapons that Israel possesses.
Since the NorthSouth summit...
we've worked together here to build a nuke.
Our history is filled with countless foreign invasions.
The nuke will help put
an end to our shameful history.
I can't throw all that away.
Our Great Leader has decided!
Know your place, Major.
Now, the handover process.
Dr. KIM?
Yes.
According to Ukrane's fomer example hand over a Atomic bomb to USSR
we must hand over a nucealr warhead under the witness
The warhead will be removed at 9 in the morning.
Let's drink!
Of all the ICBMs...
ours was the only missile with an undetectable body.
It means we could've been the only country...
to launch a preemptive strike against the US.
My genius often scares the hell out of myself.
Listen up.
Everybody, listen!
Sir!
Sadly, our governments aren't powerful enough.
However...
I have no doubt that two Koreas will be reunited.
Let's make a toast.
We are... ...one country!
A comet with the cycle of 433 years will travel over the peninsula...
around 4 tomorrow morning at the speed of 37 KPH...
which is faster than a bullet.
Said to be 9,000 times brighter
than Haley's Comet...
it's the biggest comet that has
passed through the solar system.
Some are concerned about the effect that it might cause the Earth.
However, most experts are sure there's no need to worry.
How about self-destruction? 10 minutes.
What's going on, sir?
It's very unlikely that they've gone inland.
The only way to flee is...
By a boat
through this river into the west sea.
Going where?
If they have a ship waiting, anywhere on earth.
We have Special Forces in place.
They're to be killed on sight.
Let me lead the operation.
Despite the order...
It won't be easy for them to kill their comrades.
Get everybody ready!
No matter what it takes, we have to retrieve the nuke.
Turn right!
Are you out of your mind?
Give up, Major KANG!
Shut up, or I'll sew it up!
Move
Stay close to the side.
Major KANG!
KANG, is this a sick joke?
Surrender now!
Say the word, Major!
Who fired?!
Sons of bitches!
I must be dreaming.
Bring me their heads!
With the leader gone, they're nothing.
Heavenly Soldiers!
Let's get out of here.
It's your fault, asshole.
Go ahead.
Shut up.
Without you, none of this would've happened.
My men and I are ready to die for our nation.
Shut the hell up.
You freaking thief!
Cut it out, will you?
Are we at war?
Listen, you two.
We're in big trouble. Can't you see?
By the way, where's the nuke?
Come on, guys.
This doesn't do us any good.
That nuke is 100 times more powerful
than the one dropped in Hiroshima.
And we have no clue where we are.
I'll find the nuke.
I swear my life on it.
How?
Don't worry.
I will find it.
What????
They're from Joseon.
You let those worms humiliate you?
They are extraordinary.
They use weapons that I've never seen before.
There's no excuse, Nitanggae!
I've disappointed you. Kill me.
This is from the West.
Far more powerful than a bow.
You're our best warrior. Show them what you're made of.???
Got that?
Babe?
God damn, you stink!
Thief!
Get him!
He took our weapons!
Stop! Stop!
If I catch you, I'll hang you! Buster, so fast!
Stop, asshole!
Where are our weapons?
Help! I'm being mugged!
We're screwed! Run!
Let go, asshole!
No way, you thieves!
Let go!
Your name and place of residence?
Start talking!
I didn't do anything wrong. Why arrest me?
Shut up!
Identify yourself now!
LEE Soonshin?
Family origin is Duksu.
It's the same name as that legendary general's.
So is the family origin.
Where are you from?
Asan.
That's way down in the south.
You came up here to steal?
I'm not a thief like these scumbags!
If so, what are you doing in this border town?
I left home after failing
the military test.
Gen. LEE failed it, too.
This is 1572?
This is not fair.
I'm a lawabiding citizen.
They looked suspicious so I reported them.
Is that a crime?
What did I do wrong to deserve this?
Stop lying, thief.
Have you seen a thief yelling, "Thief!"?
See how they're dressed.
Fine.
Where are you from?
From North Korea...
That is...
You! Chief Inspector!
Stop with the hitting. Find his identity tag.
Yes, sir.
What's that?
What's this?
It's nothing. Put it down, Inspector.
CHIEF Inspector!
It's a metal ball, sir.
So stupid, trusting a barbarian!
You!
How dare you lie to me!
I suggest you put it down.
I don't trust the barbarians.
They're all gonna die!
What's wrong with you?! Knock it off!
Cut it out!
Where'd you steal this?
I'll tell you everything.
Only if you put it down, Chief Inspector.
Should I work you more?
Yes, we're barbarians!
Sir, they've confessed their crimes.
Yeah?
Behead them tomorrow
and hang up their heads.
Yes, sir.
Why don't you let me go?
Aren't you with them?
No way! I'm falsely accused!
Brother, it's all over.
Why don't you give up? Be a man, brother!
What are you talking about?
I'm not his brother!
I don't know them. I've been framed!
Throw them in jail!
Yes, sir!
What year is this? The Year of the Ape.
If so...
Who's on the throne? Watch it, pal.
His Majesty is so depressed because he's childless.
If you value your life, watch your mouth.
He's depressed?
And childless?
He was childless.
So his collateral family member succeeded to the throne.
It was the first case in Joseon Dynasty.
If it's the Year of the Ape...
This is 1572.
You sure?
Yes, I read it in the comics.
Son of a...
I was right!
2005 minus 1572 is 433.
It's the comet's cycle.
Are you saying the comet brought us to the past?
I should've trusted that diviner.
He predicted that I'd do time.
Damn, my neck hurts.
Stop being a sissy.
You South Koreans are
so fragile and superstitious.
How did I wind up with jerks like you?
Hey, thief.
Soonshin?
Shut up if you wanna live till tomorrow.
Why is this happening to me?
This is just my luck.
What?
Leave him alone. He's gonna die anyway.
Like you're gonna live?
We'll be rescued soon, and you'll die.
You've seen too much.
You're so lost.
I walk, and you die.
I wasn't stealing, but spying on you barbarians!
Stop calling us that, you thief!
What are you doing?
I'm not coming.
If I do, they will think I'm one of you.
I'm not digging my grave.
I'm not coming!
No way!
Not coming!
Let me ask you once for all.
Where are they?
Didn't I tell you?
I'd thrown them in the river.
What are you doing?!
Stay out of it. I will do this my way.
Move.
Your family origin is Duksu?
Is your posthumous name Yeohae?
Who are you people,
digging up my background?
Did my fatherinlaw send you?
What are you doing in this village?
LEE Soonshin!
Untie me.
Sergeant? Sir!
There's only one man...
with a posthumous name as Yeohae...
who failed the military test in 1752.
He's THE Gen. LEE?
You sure that jackass is Gen. LEE?
Who's Gen. LEE?
You ignorant bastard! You don't know?
He was a great general of Joseon who fought off the Japanese.
No.
It was our Great Leader who fought off the Japanese.
A man who had never been defeated.
A man who had become the sun for our nation.
Hail Gen. KIM Ilsung!
You buy that bullshit?
So stupid!
General or not, we should retrieve our weapons.
Thank God!
Defeat!
God, I'm so itchy!
Spider webs are everywhere!
Die!
What are you doing here?!
Good morning, General.
What's going on?
Oh God!
You damn barbarians!
This is my place!
You shouldn't have run.
We have unfinished business.
Don't we?
I said I'd thrown your stuff in the river.
Don't worry.
We'll get them back.
With your help! Got it?
Come over here.
Don't mind them.
They think
I'm a barbarian because of you.
And this doesn't make things any easier for me.
We couldn't help it.
That cave wasn't good for us.
We'll stay with you.
What?
This is horseshit!
No way.
I can't take you in.
Brother.
If we get caught,
you won't be safe, either.
Fine! There's one condition.
Do as I say in my place. Got that?
Screw you. Sure, no problem.
This house has been vacant since the barbarians' attack.
And it'll stay that way.
Understood?
Sure, if you do me a favor.
What writing brush is this?
LEE Soonshin
Go ahead.
What's going on?
What are you doing?
What's wrong with you?!
Get me out!
I can't believe this.
You sure it's him?
I guess he can't swim yet.
Go get him.
We'll start with physical training.
Drill Sergeant!
I won't go easy on you.
Get set!
Go!
One, two, three!
What are you doing?
Follow the demonstration!
One, two, three!
Stop!
Why not doing it?
What do you want from me?
You failed the military test.
I'll help you pass it next time.
Lie on your back.
Lie on your belly.
Roll to the left.
Roll to the right.
Major!
Major, I got it.
Okay.
If you don't like this, we'll move onto archery.
Show us what you got.
Why should I? You're not my boss.
They say that you were a great archer.
Come on, show us.
Go tell my fatherinlaw.
I failed it after 7 years of preparation.
I won't do it again.
Men aren't to give up that easily.
Try it again.
Now, we make a search!
Search far and away around 30km.
Yes, sir!
This is the invasion route of the barbarians.
Since 40~50 cavalrymen lead the van...
the local army is no match.
So, what do they do?
People say they do nothing but run for their lives.
So inconvenient with the watch stopped.
We're still alive, though.
I don't think the nuke is around here.
There's nothing within a 5kmradius.
Let's move to the next ridge.
He's not a general yet.
You shouldn't confuse him with his future.
What if things go wrong?
His future can be completely
changed because of you.
I know you're disappointed about who he is now.
But that's part of history.
Don't get involved in his life.
Hey!
They have more space than us.
Do your job right. Draw it again!
Yes, sir!
Damn...
I saw everything.
You got me.
What are those?
Okay.
You want it?
Go back to your mommy.
I don't have one.
You don't?
Should I take you home?
No.
Don't come back here.
Get up!
Find out who they are.
Keep in mind that a mistake leads to death.
Yes!
It's a shrine for the Queen who was poisoned to death.
Don't people come by to pray?
This place's been abandoned for years now.
Some of those who came here died mysteriously.
They say it's haunted.
People stay away from here even during the day.
It's haunted?
There are no ghosts.
You're such a scaredycat.
No, I'm not.
There's a huge rat! Do something!
Get off of me!
You're way too big for me. Too heavy!
Why emptyhanded?
"No work, no food." You know that old saying.
Maybe God so busy.
Hey, you can't raise that.
Where'd he find hemp?
It's a rare plant.
Known to be extinct in our times.
Go away, will you?
You crossed the line!
Don't be so cheap with food.
Go back to your side.
Go away!
Oh, General is here.
Come eat with us.
You bastards!
Didn't I tell you?
Nobody lives here!
We'll be more careful.
I can't believe this.
What heavenly soldiers?
Hush!
Didn't you hear the rumor?
When the barbarians attacked the neighboring village...
heavenly soldiers appeared out of nowhere...
and fought them all off in a heartbeat.
I see what you're up to.
You're making that up to get free drinks.
I'm not.
Two of them were put in jail.
But they took down the guards
and disappeared.
You're heavenly soldiers, aren't you?
What are you talking about?
Spill the beans.
I heard the rumor.
You're the ones who broke out of jail.
You beat the barbarians?
That's...
No use asking your boss.
If you're a heavenly soldier, do me a small favor.
He doesn't look anything like this guy.
That's when he was older.
I see.
Listen.
If he hadn't fought off
the Japanese...
when they invaded us...
You know what could've happened?
Korea would've become a colony of Japan.
Though we're divided into two Koreas now...
we're still Koreans
thanks to Gen. LEE.
I see.
He's a great general, indeed.
Nice.
Sergeant...
What the hell are you doing there?
Look who's talking.
Night vision isn't for this, you pervert!
Our DPRK made this.
Let me tell you. It shows everything.
S. Korea can't make this, can it?
You have no capabilities.
Capabilities?
Watching a girl bathe has nothing to do with capabilities, moron.
What are you doing here?
God!
What?
I said shut up!
You boys are silly.
General!
A rock? You threw a rock at him?
You're unbelievable.
What? Listen to yourself!
You perverts peeked at me taking a bath!
I'm a pervert?
You freaking... Cut it out.
You're in the wrong.
Damn!
What's he upset for?
Shame on him!
I'm glad you didn't hurt your legs.
If you had,
you couldn't train for the military test.
What do you care?
Who says I'm taking it again?
Was that meant for me?
Don't be upset.
I'm not upset at you.
You sure?
Wow, this is nice.
So many stars.
You like watching stars?
You got your own star?
Haven't you thought about it?
Of all the stars, there might be one just like you.
There's one.
Which one?
It doesn't show very well in the dead of night.
But it becomes so bright at dawn.
Only for a little while until the sun comes up.
It reminds me of myself.
It must be Venus.
Venus?
It's the brightest star.
It stays until the early morning so people are confused.
They think it appears only at dawn.
I guess it's much like you in many ways.
I earn the money.
Look!
Just one picture.
Three!
Have a bite.
Done shopping?
Yes. Heavy, isn't it?
With all these...
Gen. LEE must be a genius.
They say geniuses recognize one another.
You're at it again.
Oh God!
Open your bag.
What's the matter, sir?
What are you...
What's wrong with them?
It's because of ginseng.
The security's been beefed up due to heavenly soldiers.
And ginseng smugglers made the situation worse.
They don't value their lives, or what?
Thanks for your help.
