Phantom, The Submarine
June 8th, 1999
10km North of the Palmiras island A Korean-U.S. Drill Exercise
Emergency in the Jangbogo submarine 3rd Korean Naval Submarine Fleet
Captain! Please back away!
They're coming to kill me. I don't want to die.
I'm not ready yet. Do it now!
Please, don't move sir! Nobody is out to kill you
This is just a drill. They're our submarines.
They're coming to kill me! They sent the submarines for me!
I know what's really happening!
Sir, I will shoot you if you don't remove your hand!
They're coming to capture me! They're going to kill me!
Do it now! Now!
No!
Commander!
Chan-Suk Lee
Lieutenant Commander of the 3rd Korean Naval Submarine Fleet
On June 8, 1999 at exactly 15:10
You were arrested for allegedly killing a senior officer
during the sixteenth Korean-U.S. drill exercise
in the control room of the Jangbogo submarine
For disobeying regulations of the Korean Navy Command,
You are guilty of a serious crime.
According to article 52, line 1 of the Korean Navy Command laws
We sentence you to death.
About face!
Present arms!
Right face!
Aim!
Fire!
Shoulder arms! Left face!
You made a speedy recovery
A meaningless death is painful.
I speak from experience.
Am I right?
All of us here exist only as a number.
So do you.
From now on you'll be referred to as 431
A nuclear submarine
... the Phantom ...
Can't you feel its power?
Where am I?
You're in a nuclear weapons base
National Seurity has designated this place top secret.
Why am I here?
You've been chosen for the Phantom.
There are no records of anyone here-you included
You have no choice.
You have to join the Phantom.
You still look confused.
You'll get used to it.
You won't regret spending the rest of your life on the Phantom.
You're looking better.
Your credentials set you apart from the rest.
Sand dunes.
You can't get out. An oasis. Your only escape.
A poisoned needle.
Use it when your cover's blown or in a similar emergency.
Southwest sea,
128 degrees east longitude, 31.5 degrees north latitude,
120 degrees is the location that we got from headquarters.
In my personal opinion...
this drill is no different
to the last one.
Revealing the Phantom brought pressure
Everyone knows that Japan is developing nuclear subs.
-But if we do.... -Some people will get edgy..
Anything new from HQ?
Some time ago the captain and the naval special forces
inspected the Phantom for 7 hours
Why?
We don't know. They completely excluded us.
Than's odd.
We had better inspect the Phantom ourselves.
Okay, Once we set sail, everything will become clear.
Let's keep this between us.
- Just a routine check sir. - Yes.
Good, everyone is here.
Let me introduce 431, our new weapons chief
Since he's late joining us, make him feel at home.
Case 1. August 1996
They established a suspicious research complex on island.
off the northeastern coast of Okinawa.
December, 1996 Monju, Japan
A heat reprocessing facility was driven
at high speed proliferation for nuclear
May, 1997. Obtained picture of a ship's hull
being made in an underground warehouse in Okinawa.
A large displacement of at least 20,000 tons.
We think it's a nuclear sub.
Case 1. December 1996.
A 3 trillion won debt obligation from Russia
...paid back with one Sierra class sub.
A top secret plan to operate a nuclear submarine.
Code name KMX-1...the Phantom
a special mono-propellant
driven by a steam turbine
built inside a nuclear reactor
In the vertical silos... In the remodeled vertical silos,
are SSN-16 cruise missiles,
unequipped with nuclear warheads.
Top cruising speed is 32 knots,
A maximum submergible depth of 750 meters
It has a shower room and a tanning booth
- We must be in the same unit - Yes. We are, sir.
- Are you just like me? - Sir?
Were you put here for shooting your senior officer?
Sir, I can't answer any personal questions.
We don't have much time before we set sail .
So let's enjoy the party.
Let me introduce you.
This is 841. Head of radio control.
A friend well-versed in the history of sea battles.
the Phantom's tactics officer.
This is 561, head of navigation.
He's more delicate than he looks.
and this is commander 202 the man I fear the most.
If that happens, the U.S. might start a war here.
If Asia is ruined , the U.S. might reap some short-term profit
but they could lose one of their biggest markets.
That scenario is unlikely
They'll pull back before total destruction
When everyone has suffered enough, they'll stop.
Why are you men so serious?
We're just talking about the weather, sir.
Do you want some?
-Sir, we have to depart tomorrow. -Shut up!
Don't order me around!
That's all. Any questions?
Well...
If we pass through the Sushima and Mariana Straits,
Sir, there'll be many Japanese and U.S. subs.
We can cruise 100 meters deeper than the Japanese subs
They won't detect us.
And even if they find us out, they'll think it's a Russian sub.
As long as we avoid their waters, they won't attack.
But Sushima is pretty shallow, sir.
It won't be a picnic sailing into the Pacific.
A nuclear sub can't hang around the East Sea forever.
When we have finished developing our satellites
and nuclear warheads,
We'll have to head out into the open sea.
Sir, would we have to cut communication lines with HQ?
Yes, that would be the case.
If you have no more questions, go back to your posts.
-Dismissed. -Attention!
Sir ...
why the sudden change of plans?
We just follow orders. Soldiers aren't allowed to think.
To the next way point !
Move to way point!
Oh, my god!
What the hell are you doing?
You've got a one-track mind.
Hey, you sons of bitches! Go to sleep!
Mind your own business, You bastard!
You idiot! Why are you washing that rat?
Whose towel did you use?
-You idiot! Moron! -Hey!
Do you want to be punished again?
Get up to your bunk.
If I see that rat once more...
I can't understand it at all
It's impossible to pass through the Mariana without being discovered.
There must be a reason for all this
For what?
For why this old submarine suddenly becomes fearless?
-Perhaps... -You are all so curious.
Perhaps soldiers shouldn't think after all.
I wonder what our new recruit thinks.
Well, sir...
They may already know the Phantom exists.
Maybe politicians are using it for their own ends.
Are you saying that it's time to step out of the shadows?
If that's the case, does Phantom have a political values?
even without nuclear warheads?
The Phantom has the potential to carry nuclear weapons.
That could be valuable enough.
Then do you support nuclear armament?
Nuclear power can give a country complete sovereignty.
But of course the situation calls for caution.
Caution?
I see.
It's not the time for nuclear arms yet.
We need a better understanding of the situation first.
It was good to talk . You're right.
Captain.
Last communication link with headquarters.
Just send a farewell message.
No contact for the next 3 months.
How much time do we have?
13 minutes until the open sea, sir.
13 minutes...
I feel calmer than I thought I would.
In 13 minutes...
I'm be leaving the waters I navigated for 30 years.
Sir, you sound like you're never coming back.
Is that what you heard?
Old age has overcome me. I'm getting sentimental.
This is the captain speaking.
The Phantom will enter Japanese waters in 12 minutes .
Only sunken rocks and mines are waiting for us
Keep in mind that any careless behavior
or mistakes can threaten all our lives.
We are the crew of the first Korean nuclear submarine.
We are the Phantom, our country's strongest weapon.
That is all.
Speed, 30 knots standard Take her down to 150.
Open vents, speed 30 knots down 150 deep.
8 degrees down bubble
- Is anything wrong? - No, sir.
What's that behind your back ?
Nothing, sir.
- 981. Are you the head cook? - Yes, sir.
Don't you know that possessing a photo is a violation of
Navy Command rules and deserves a heavy punishment?
Yes, I know, sir.
- So are you prepared? - Yes.
- Are there any noodles? - Sir? . . .Yes, sir.
Can you cook some for me?
Yes, sir. Right away, sir.
Not now.
Bring two bowls to my room at 22:00 hours
Be careful!
- Understand? - Yes, sir.
- Are you finding things comfortable? - Yes, sir.
You're much different from your father.
You look a lot like him, but you're very different.
Sir, you knew my father?
Isn't it ironic?
Even though we are in the sea, we can't see where we are.
It's like being in a desert.
Your father was a dreamer.
-The Phantom may be his dream. -Why did you call me, sir?
In this world...there are some things you can't run away from.
Our boarding the Phantom... your father's death...
It is all the same.
- This key looks better on you. - Sir.
As you grow older, you tend to depend on other people.
Hold this for me.
Keep it a secret.
You can go back to your post now.
Stick to your beliefs.
Hey 532! What are you doing!
Give it to me.
Son of a bitch!
You carry that thing all day and bring it here, you idiot!
Give it to me, you bastard! Now, you son of a bitch!
Sir. It's exactly 22:00 hours.
Sir, it might taste a little undercooked.
Did you have a nightmare?
It's common around here. Does anyone sleep well here?
In my quarters, I often hear people screaming in their sleep.
Thank you.
Everyone has his own nightmares.
- Have some. - What? Me, sir?
Why do you think I ordered two bowls?
Have some.
I'm afraid of getting fat...
- Lieutenant commander. - What?
Your nose is sweating. Hot food makes my nose sweat, too.
You won't be caught again, right?
Sir, of course... want to see?
You can see it
...can't ...can ...can't
Your kids must be crazy about you.
As we expected, we found a bomb during the search.
Well, then... .
We are all in agreement.
Only a few days at sea and I'm so bored.
Why isn't there anything to do?
The less work for us, the better.
If you like it so much, stay here as long as you can.
I'm breaking out of here.
Tell me first before you bail out. So I can give you a present.
Really, Sir?
What do you want?
Your watch, sir.
I have wanted that kind of watch since I was a child.
Have you? Then you can have it, now.
There's no one to impress here. Give it to me when I escape.
Tell me when.
- Where are you going? - To check the missile silo.
- Present depth? - Steady at 150 feet.
Can't we dive deeper?
Any deeper, sir, and. we'll hit rough terrain
We may run into a Japanese sub.
Any movement?
Nothing yet, sir.
It's strange, sir.
There should be at least one or two subs here.
Do you want to destroy a Japanese sub?
Personally speaking... yes. But I must follow orders.
Sir, you should take some rest.
You feel the need to take over.
What are you going to do?
I have 10 more years to go.
...I'll just have to wait, sir.
- You have the bridge - He has the bridge!
What the hell is this ! !
Why is it so noisy out there?
Maybe the engine crew are being disciplined, sir.
And they scold us for doing nothing. Bastards!
What's going on? Why are you armed?
-I don't know, sir. -This is the commander.
There was an attempted mutiny. The captain has been killed.
The rebels have been contained and their leaders were killed.
From now on, we are on full alert.
Navy regulations stipulate that I should take command.
493!
Sorry, sir. It was an emergency order.
Why do you have the key?
The captain ordered me to prepare for missile launch, sir.
Captain?
Yes, sir.
You mean commander 202 ?
Yes, sir. Our new captain sir
I see
Commander
A whale
It's swimming right next to us
The strongest animal in the sea
The captain was killed by mutineers.
Regulations state that, I must identify the corpse.
Three officers and the coroner must witness ... .
Once, I lost my eyesight for a while during childhood.
I was frantic at first, but as time passed
I could hear sounds. I had never heard before .
When I concentrate,
I can even hear someone's hidden emotions.
He likes us....that whale
The strong can recognize each other.
A natural instinct
The captain's corpse... please take necessary steps.
There's no need for that. I killed the captain.
So it's a waste of time to pursue formal procedures.
Why did you kill him?
To put it simply, the captain planned to destroy the Phantom,
and all of us.
What makes you think so?
Believe it or not, we found a bomb on board.
I don't know how many are left
It's simple.
During the last drill, we ran into a Japanese sub.
Ever since the U.S. and Japan found out about the Phantom,
the pigs in the top brass have bowed to pressure.
I don't understand
why a sub with no nuclear warheads could be considered a threat.
I thought you were smarter than that.
Even terrorists in the Middle East are armed with nuclear missiles.
Although our leaders are idiots...
do you actually think they made this sub without nuclear weapons?
Did they want to break the world diving record with it?
This sub...
contains missiles that can easily wipe out Japan.
Do you realize why we passed through Sushima and Mariana,
fully exposed to Japanese and American subs?
We were expected to put on a suicide show.
So, what's your plan?
Now you're catching on.
Our country hands over her pride and dignity for money.
But this time it's different...
the Phantom has the power...
the power to protect herself...
She has nuclear power.
But nuclear power is something we can't use at will!
Who the hell gives them the right to decide our fate?
The point is ...
not living or dying.
It's showing that our country won't sells its soul for money
Captain. The ship is at launch depth.
Now let's see if we do have nuclear missiles.
All stop, Hold fast at this depth.
- Check the target - Check the target!
13324 east, 2842 north
2 kilos northeast of Okinawa
A submarine construction base. The target has been confirmed.
Japan's development of nuclear subs will be delayed.
Want to insert it yourself?
-The captain's key. -I think .....
..... you're crazy.
The Phantom has no nuclear missiles.
That's too bad.
We had high expectations of you.
He doesn't have it
You're quick-witted
Why did you hide it?
Instinct. I could sense something in your voice.
So did I meet your high expectations?
Don't talk back to your captain
Captain... sir?
Or should I say Emperor?
Too many damn fanatics here.
Tell us where the key is.
Tell me where the corpse is.
I have to report back to base.
Sir, sir?
What?
- Aren't you making radish soup? - Yup.
But why are you cutting it into strips?
- Is something wrong? - No, nothing.
This boat is screwed up.
- Ouch! - Clean up the fish.
Chan-suk Lee
Your father was killed for being stubborn like you.
But I respect him.
I found something in our captain's room.
This might interest you.
You still don't get why the old man had this picture?
Yes, it's them.
They all got medals for getting rid of everyone in their way
even your father
One of them became a Congressman, another became Chief of Staff.
Your father planned to bring in a nuclear sub like the Phantom.
The government secretly backed him up.
But every secret leaks out
and the Americans did something about it.
They influenced the men in the picture to murder
all the important people related to this plan.
Your father was no exception.
The last two were pushed out of the power game,
and finished their lives in submarines.
One in Jangbogo... the other in the Phantom.
It seems you had no idea
even though you were so close to him.
You can agree or disagree.
But what I want to say is
that scum have always existed and they keep bringing dishonor .
If no one puts a stop to this, it will last
forever....
So all we need to do is turn the key.
Launching the missiles won't make any difference.
This may be sudden and confusing for you.
But think of it as our last chance.
Think?
I thought about it already.
Thoughtless romantics...
... leave only scars.
The Phantom has no nuclear missiles.
Are you positive that Phantom carries no nuclear missiles
and no bombs either?
Or you are afraid of the truth?
Your father was honorable
but all you inherited was...
- his useless stubbornness. - Captain.
A Japanese sub, bearing 0.8.0.!
For you, another nightmare begins
- How far is it? - 2200 meters ahead and closing
- Have we been discovered? - No, sir.
There are many ways to begin a war.
Make your bearing at 0.8.0. All ahead, full throttle
Yes, sir
Bearing 0.8.0 All ahead, full throttle.
Modifying to 0.8.0.
Man all battle stations!
Captain. We've been discovered. They've increased their speed .
Do you know why they're avoiding us?
Because they knew we were coming.
They're yielding us to the Pacific.
So what do we do now?
I'm not really in the mood for suicide.
So shall we start the game? 661, how far are they now?
1800 meters, sir
- All stop, 10 degrees up - All stop, 10 degrees up
661, Let me know when it reaches 1500 meters.
We can't fire our torpedoes at close range
1700 meters Closing in at 1700 meters
- Ready torpedoes 1 and 2 - Prepare torpedoes 1 and 2
You look as excited as I do.
Open the tube!
Tube open!
1650 meters! 1630
I told you I lost my eyesight once, right?
1600... 1530
Launch torpedoes
Back then, I had to judge everything by sound.
1400 meters to target Speed at 60 knots
Distance at... 1200 meters 53 knots
Being blind was not so bad . . .
Since I couldn't see the things I didn't want to.
When I sit alone in this sub, I remember those times.
Arm the torpedoes
Tracking device on, arming torpedoes...
Target locked!
What the hell did we do?
We sank a Japanese sub.
Now the war begins.
- It's a shaky start, but ... - You're insane
No. The people who sent me here are insane .
What's our present depth?
Maintaining 170 meters, sir.
Before long, more Japs will arrive.
Captain. 493 knows where the key is .
I know everything about this sub.
It speaks to me.
Stay away! Don't come near me!
Give me the key!
- That key is very important to us. - No I can't! I won't!
Let me go! Let me go!
Find it.
Spit it out, you bastard!
What's that? What are you doing...
What have you done to this poor guy?
Remember this
Captain! Yoshio class Japanese sub bearing 1.4.0.
All stop, silence!
- How long for the anesthetic? - About 10 minutes.
Take the key out now! We have no time!
- Captain! - Take it out right now!
We have no time to lose .
Hurry!
- But... - The Japs are coming! Now!
I said now!
Lieutenant! Help me, lieutenant!
No!
Medic! Medic! Think about what you're doing.
He has a son!
He has a family!
You'll go to hell for this All of you!
Chan-Suk.. You caused this mess.
Never forget it .
Hurry up!
Hurry!
We've got no time! Pull the key out now.
Hurry! Hurry!
- Fool! - No!
Keep watch
Are we at launch depth?
Maintaining launch depth, sir.
The enemy sent an active SONAR, sir.
They're heading our way, sir. Distance at 2250 meters
The sub opened its torpedo tubes
2100 meters
We've got to cook that one first. Close missile hatches.
Make your bearing at 130. Reverse speed.
Closing missile hatches.

Ready ship for impact!
Attention all hands! Ready ship for impact!
- Assess and report damage. - Section 2 is fine.
Gas leaking into cargo, section 5.
We can't open the missile hatch in this situation.
How long will it take to fix it?
It'll take about 30 minutes, sir.
No, don't touch it!
I think one hour, sir.
The people in Okinawa are lucky. They live for one more hour.
Send damage team to cargo, section 5
Damage control Move to cargo, section 5
- All stop - All stop
Commence hovering and silent.
661, where's the other sub?
Bearing at 2.7.0., 400 meters
They don't know our exact location.
- But they're heading towards us, sir. - They can't see us.
They think we blew up with the other sub.
They're coming to check.
Now it's time to go fishing
Launch the floating antenna to depth 150
Keep silent.
Make no sound.
Noise will drive the fish away.
All crews stop working and stay quiet.
493, close tube no.3. Hurry up!
He said keep quiet.
Stay quiet? they must be out of their mind!
Bearing at 2.5.0., 120 meters Bearing 2.4.0., 100 meters
My real name is Chan-Suk Lee.
Silence, we almost got it.
30 meters
10 meters
He's not in the sick bay
Not there ?
What about 841 ?
Captain ...
Chan-suk has ...
How deep can the Youshio submerge?
300 meters, sir
That's all?
It's built to go that deep...
.... but it can bear up to 500 meters, sir.
- How about the Phantom? - 750 meters, sir
But the records say Phantom can submerge 1100 meters, sir.
Okay.
Find him.
Dive to depth 600 meters, Turn right, full rudder.
Depth 290 meters....
... 295 meters, 300 meters
Let's listen to some sweet music
- 661, link SONAR to control
- Connecting, sir.
Can you spread it
over the Phantom?
But...
Mic 1 is on, sir.
This is the captain.
Today we sank two subs...
and another is sinking at the moment.
Today is the day history is rewritten.
The reason for today's success is your devotion.
I'm grateful for all of your hard work.
And Chan-suk Lee . .
.... wherever you are, listen carefully.
Soon you will hear sweet music from all over Japan.
The prelude is over.
- Connect mic 2 to cargo - Yes, sir.
This is the captain, 496, how is it?
It's almost done, sir
We just have to refill the gas tanks, sir.
Do you want to die? Put that out!
I guess we'll die just like them.
After we cruise the ocean floor and move 7 kilos to the south,
- Go up to launch depth - Yes, sir
Bearing at 2.7.0., 30 knots
562, where's our status?
In five minutes, we'll reach launch depth.
- It's me... - Chan-suk?
I found what you're looking for.
I'm glad to hear that.
You see I was right.
Have you decided to join us?
Shut up and listen to me.
You've got 5 minutes.
Cancel the missile launch and
turn back to Korea.
It's the only way we can survive.
Survival...
... is that important to you Chan-Suk?
Survival is not the point.
It's the senseless death of so many victims.
Chan-Suk, Lee, you are a Korean soldier
A soldier's life is not important.
He exists only to protect the dignity of his country.
Stop making excuses !
We return or we all die together.
My fate is already decided.
I have the bombs now.
When they go off, all your dreams go up in smoke
Find him.
Bring him to me now!
751, 523
Section 5, how is everything?
The tubes are sealed, but opening the hatches is dangerous.
562, how much longer until we reach launch depth?
We're not ready to open the hatches yet, sir.
Weapons unit. ready for strategic missile launch?
Ready to launch, sir.
- Open the hatches - But . . .
No time to lose
Any more hesitation
If we hesitate, we'll fall prey to the Japanese.
Open them now!!
Spin up missiles 1, 3, and 5.
- Missile unit 432 - I found the bombs.
- Where are you? - What 202 is doing is crazy.
Erase the launch program now.
We can buy ourselves an extra hour before the bombs go off.
Think..
.... millions of people wiped out.
432. I know you.
You must make the right choice Don't follow orders.
You'll be responsible for millions of lives.
I trust you. See you at the reactor, section 3
Captain! Please shut the hatches!
The pressure is too strong!
Captain! if we keep this up...
.... other sections will be jeopardized
Shut the hatches! Shut the fucking hatches!
Stop opening the hatches. Up full ahead to launch depth.
- We'll be completely exposed, sir. - I said now!
Up full ahead to launch depth!
- He's not there, sir. - Not there, sir
Keep looking.
Captain, ready to launch, sir.
Control, open all hatches.
Yes, sir
Opening hatches 1 through 10
Insert target data for missiles 1 to 10,
All . . .all of them, sir?
Yes, all of them.
Yes, sir.
Missiles 1 through 10, inserting target data
Data input is complete. Ready for strategic missile launch
3 minutes left until launch
What gives you the right to kill us all?.
What makes you so special?
You know nothing about me!
You know what?
I hate sons of bitches like you.
I should have told you before.
No one's on my side.
Strategic missile launch is fully activated.
Remove the safety device
Enter the password. Remove the safety device.
After the first one is launched,
the rest will fire every 30 seconds
We have no time. We've got to surface....
and evacuate everyone from the ship.
Evacuate ?
Where?
You tell them.
Go ahead.
Leave here and go where ?
surrender to the enemy?
Is that right?
History won't change with a nuclear attack.
Only the will to vengeance will remain.
and who will be responsible for all the deaths
Who cares?
Will you die in peace after blowing off my head?
Like some hero?
Is that how it all ends? As if nothing happened?
You have no right to start a war.
We're not ready yet.
Not ready at all...
Don't overestimate yourself!
Okay. You're right.
It's time to wrap things up.
Attention all crew. You've all done a great job.
It's a desperate situation.
But our country will never forget...
your blood and sweat
The Phantom has reached its end.
That is all.
Seal the 7 th nozzle 498, clamp that pipe!
498, what the hell are you doing!
Captain! It looks like a sub, sir
It's coming at us fast, sir.
The Phantom is sinking Not because of a torpedo
But because of our fear of gaining power
If we don't become stronger, we'll get trampled on.
It wasn't that long ago
that our nation suffered all kinds of humiliations
History can repeat itself.
Everything can change in one day!
How long will we endure this humiliation?
By whatever means,
We must protect our 5000-year history.
I am the Phantom
and it's our destiny.
Despite your reasons, it's imperialism nonetheless
One person cannot change history.
History is made by everybody.
We need to prepare ourselves so history doesn't repeat itself.

I also know ...
life is important.
Nobody will know
what the phantom was in this sea
and the small war that took place.
Nobody will know
what the aim of this war was
and who was sacrificed.
Now I want to see the sky.
