Corporal Oh.
TRAITOR
The moment you have entered this place, all personal calls are forbidden.
Yes, sir.
DIRECTOR MOON JI-WON
FIRST LIEUTENANT SON YE-RIM
Hello, First Lieutenant Son.
Hello?
Hello? First Lieutenant Son?
First Lieutenant Son? Hello?
Corporal Oh!
Let go of her.
Fire!
Sir!
First Lieutenant Son.
Are you okay?
Wait.
EPISODE 3
Sir.
We missed the target.
Sir.
Darn it. Where am I?
Mac.
I think we need to find our team members quickly.
Darn it.
Let's go.
Sector 21. We have a missing person. I repeat, we have a missing person.
Unpack your things, and we'll start the meeting in 30 minutes.
-Yes, sir. -Yes, sir.
Look at the state of the kennels.
House.
That mental patient lunatic was a captain?
They said he was going to Military Court.
Do you think he committed murder?
How did he come here?
Furthermore, I have to stay here with that lunatic?
Mac. I'm in trouble.
Do you want to sleep with me?
Yes?
TRAITOR
Gosh.
I COULDN'T ANSWER YOUR CALL. IS SOMETHING WRONG?
-I'm surprised. -What?
The KSCT Special Mission Group's ultimate elite
is afraid of shots.
Is there a story behind it?
Well...
There you go again. You're not telling me again.
There are times when it's upsetting that you don't talk about yourself.
Did I do that?
Yes, you do. All the time.
I was always most afraid of shots since I was young.
I wasn't afraid of anything else,
but I was afraid of shots.
Your parents must have had a hard time taking you to the doctors.
Yes.
I was most afraid of my dad.
He would nag me like crazy.
I'll tell them to run the test right away, so don't worry.
Okay.
-Thank you. -No problem.
Mac. Come here. Sit.
Good.
Hey, military working dog handler.
Are you here as the special mission group?
Salute.
Yes, sir.
Where's Captain Song Min-gyu?
He's inside there.
Mac. Here.
Heel.
Hey. I bet you had it really easy during your military service.
Well...
Yes, I guess I did.
The dog doesn't bite, right?
She usually doesn't bite, but...
Here. Go.
Go.
Good.
Good. Good girl, Mac.
If I do this, she may bite.
Here.
Give me back the ball.
You can go inside there.
All the way in there.
NAME: YONG DONG-JIN, AGE: 28
NAME: JU MOON-CHUL, AGE: 22
-Salute. -Welcome. Have a seat.
Yes, sir.
Sir, does this operation include a reconnaissance and an ambush?
How about some hunting?
It can be easily done by a drone, right?
Yes, but we can't use drones within the position.
The area is under the control of CFC
and there's a chance it leads to a conflict with the North.
We got the permission from above.
Is that so?
Then there shouldn't be anything to worry about.
With the drone, we can finish the hunting soon.
It won't even take a week.
I love your high spirit.
I will make sure to set up a recon drone together with three surveillance cameras.
As you'll see, it has a wide field of view and has a monitoring function as well,
so it will easily cover most of the main operation area.
How are your siblings doing? Are they going to school all right?
Yes, sir.
I always appreciate your kindness, sir.
It's nothing.
I heard you recommended me as a signaller, so I came right away,
without knowing what the operation is about.
You know what it's about.
I know you know it.
Who are the rest of the team members?
You are the only one I recommended.
The rest of the members were selected by the superiors.
The assistant team leader, First Lieutenant Lee Joon-sung,
has experience in recon operations and in martial arts.
Sergeant First Class Park Ki-hyung will be the sniper and the gunner.
Good. Mac.
And there's the military working dog handler, Sergeant Yong Dong-jin.
There you go.
Good girl.
SECURITY AREA 3-1
This is the video filmed with the action camera on a military dog.
The military working dog handler here
has run into the target during the search operation
and he was also the handler of the dead military dog.
Since this team is a group of the most elite troops,
Sergeant Yong,
refrain from getting in the way of the operation.
Leo.
Leo, get up.
Our operation is to remove the enemies within one week.
Our goal is to kill one unidentified resident in the video.
Sergeant Yong, did you see the target?
Pardon?
Although it was for a short while, I did see the target.
Was it a North Korean soldier?
I'm not exactly sure, but the target was wearing a military uniform.
It can't be our troop.
Is that important?
We just need to either catch or kill the target.
Staff Sergeant Ju is right.
That's our only goal.
First, check out the places that the target went.
Mainly the place where the target was found,
which are here, here, and here. Find the target at all costs.
And you will all gear up for possible battle situations.
Should we kill the target on sight?
Yes.
Then this won't take long.
Will the search operation turn into a night ambush operation then?
You will withdraw but not in ambush.
Study the topography and predict where the target will be.
And focus on setting the surveillance cameras.
It won't take long if we make good use of the observation devices.
It will take no more than one day.
Good. Don't take too long. It's a simple operation.
As soon as you kill the target, get back to the camp.
It's 6:30 p.m. now.
The operation starts tomorrow morning at 5:00 a.m.
Don't do or say anything that might create unnecessary tension
in Chungong-ri and disturb the villagers' life.
Until the operation is over, pretend to be a mine disposal squad.
Do you understand?
-Yes, sir. -Yes, sir.
These are the briefings of each operation.
Read them thoroughly and tonight by 10 p.m.,
they should be all destroyed under First Lieutenant Lee's command.
And the paper here is for your will.
If you want to be out of this operation,
you can leave this room right now.
WILL
I know this is an important operation, but we need to break the ice.
Right. We introduced ourselves to each other already.
I'm Staff Sergeant Ju Moon-chul.
Where did you come from?
We're from the Special Forces
and he's from the Search Team.
I'm in charge of reconnaissance and observation in the Reconnaissance Company.
Are you a drone specialist?
No, I finished the Special Warfare Non-Commissioned Officer program
and then completed the drone technology course.
The young people these days are indeed different from us.
All right. Welcome on board, guys.
This is just a formality.
Right.
About the video we watched earlier... It must have been a big shock to you.
If you need any help, you can ask me anytime.
Thank you, sir.
Something is caught on the monitor.
-What is it? -Is it Sergeant Yong?
-I can't identify it. -Where is it?
At ten o'clock.
Isn't Sergeant Yong at two o'clock?
It's not Sergeant Yong. Mac is not with him.
It's acting independently.
-Could it be the target? -There's a chance.
Let's go in the ten o'clock direction. It could be our target.
Sir, shouldn't we save Sergeant Yong first?
First Lieutenant Lee, did you forget what our goal was?
Are you saying we shouldn't follow the target we found?
One of our team members is missing. We can't just go like this.
Sergeant Yong is a military working dog handler.
With a military working dog's help, we can bring him back later.
We will follow our target.
-Staff Sergeant Ju. -Yes, sir.
-Pack the gear. -Yes, sir.
You must catch the target within a week.
And whatever you find in Sector 21,
don't report it. Just bring it to me.
There's something more to this operation than just killing the target.
I need to find that out.
DMZ POLICE
Salute.
COMPLY WITH REGULATIONS
We made contact with Private First Class Kwon's family.
The bereaved want to know the exact cause of...
If we figure out the cause of death, we will surely let them know.
But we don't know it yet.
Yes, sir.
-What about Corporal Oh? -He doesn't have family.
He only has a distant relative, whom we're trying to reach.
Keep looking for it.
Yes, sir.
Sir.
Is it true that you'll be under investigation?
But you were going to be promoted to a Major in a month.
-I'll be right back. -Okay. By the way,
these are their belongings found on the scene.
They were found on the scene.
Did you check what's inside?
I took a quick look at them and I couldn't find anything special.
They seem to be Private First Class Kwon's or Corporal Oh's.
Salute.
-Did you call me? -Yes.
I want you to test the drone,
and check the field of view and maximum observation time.
Yes, sir.
They are the same.
The map Corporal Oh had
match the topography here.
How did Corporal Oh revive?
The wild dog and Corporal Oh were infected with the same virus.
I'm sure that holds the key to this mystery.
WILD DOG, PRIVATE FIRST CLASS KWON, CORPORAL OH JIN-TAEK
We got the result from the blood test.
There're no issues. Here.
The result states that person-to-person infection does not occur.
What are you doing?
I thought I'd try injecting the wild dog's blood
into the dead mouse.
But what?
But I don't know if this is right.
This is easy.
Wait!
Dong-jin!
What?
What are you guys doing here?
What brings you here?
We've been assigned as the mine removal squad.
I thought we might see you here.
It's so nice seeing you!
I told you that he'd be here.
Nice to see you kids again!
I finally have people below me.
What?
Tell us if you need any help.
Of course. Where are you guys sleeping?
Sleep with me.
Come on. Sleep with me.
Why?
-I'm fine. -Dong-jin!
Hey!
Glad to see you again!
Careful.
I'm here to feed you.
I can finally live again.
This is awesome!
I'll go and set up the signaling system first.
All right. Hurry and get to work.
What do you want to eat?
Hey.
I don't need food. Where are you sleeping?
Why don't you sleep with me?
When did they disappear?
No idea.
He just went out and when he came back, all the chickens were gone.
How many were there?
This whole pen was filled with female chickens,
but all of them are gone.
That's odd.
What about your wife? Has she heard any sound?
The TV ruined it all for us.
She was too busy watching TV that she didn't hear anything.
Here!
All of your chickens must've gone out from here!
My chickens are homebodies. They don't escape their homes.
-What do you mean, homebodies? -I'm serious.
-He's right. -I mean it.
Stop with the nonsense.
Hold on.
I see blood.
Based on this,
something ripped the cover
from the outside.
How did it come in? Fly? Jump?
I'm just talking to myself.
Let's see.
It's a hole.
Seems like I won't be getting any sleep tonight.
She's a curious cat.
Why did you have to come along?
I can sort it out alone as the village chief.
Look at this.
DEAD
It cannot be explained medically.
I think we need to go in a molecular biology approach.
I'm sure that there has been
a genetic modification in the mutated RNA.
It must've come back alive from dead
because there has been a thermochemical reaction in the brain.
The wild dog and the rat
both completely died
when the medulla of the brain was cut.
There's no previous research on this,
so we don't know how to explain it.
What about its danger of spreading?
There's no danger for now,
but Corporal Oh Jin-taek's blood got on my skin.
We've done a checkup on her and she's fine.
But we're keeping an eye on myself.
We have to make sure that there's no chance of spreading between humans.
Yes.
Write a report for now.
One mistake,
and it might spread to the whole country.
Yes, sir.
STRONG AND PROSPEROUS NATION REGENERATION ON OUR OWN
What happened?
STRONG AND PROSPEROUS NATION REGENERATION ON OUR OWN
Hey!
Here.
It seems
like we're in North Korea.
Stay calm.
We can get through this.
Here!
That seems
way too fast.
He risked his life to go to the South.
What is he doing there?
Hey!
If you're so curious,
go and ask him yourself.
Come on.
What do we do?
Do we report him?
If the party finds out,
aren't we going to die before he comes back?
Shut up, you prick!
What happened?
Have you seen him yet?
-We... -My comrade,
seems like we'll die before we find him.
Why don't we call it a day for now,
-and we can come back tomorrow... -You prick!
What are you saying?
Are you being responsible?
Search over there.
That jerk!
Just be quick.
Yes, sir.
LANDMINE
Mac! Quiet.
Hey!
What are you doing there?
Come quickly.
Come on.
Yes, sir.
What's wrong?
Are you serious?
Ouch!
Are you okay?
I fell while trying to set the signal wires up.
You should've been more careful!
I'm sorry.
No need to be sorry.
You didn't break anything, did you?
-No, I didn't. -Get up.
What's wrong with this?
Come on.
What?
I see.
-I think it will be hard to use a drone. -Why?
I think the North is jamming our frequency.
It seems our side has opened it up though.
I didn't think about that.
I'll look into another method.
Hurry. We don't have time.
Yes, sir.
Company commander... Sorry. I mean, Team Leader Song.
The military dog has left the premises.
Why did you act independently?
Support soldier, Private First Class Seo Baek-jun collapsed,
so we went to rescue him.
You didn't report it, and you went alone?
So the thing is...
The situation was urgent, so I took emergency action first...
If you're a military working dog handler, focus on that job.
Don't roam around without permission
and be sure to report everything. Understood?
Yes, sir.
I'm sure you have no objection to taking responsibility
for your independent action and getting punished according, right?
Yes, sir.
Sergeant Yong Dong-jin.
Is this because you'll be discharged soon?
-I just... -I'm sorry.
I told him to go.
I thought that it was best to bring the person who got hurt first.
I see.
You were the one who ordered him to go.
Fine.
If you leave the premises without reporting it,
you will be punished immediately. Also,
I will ensure that you take responsibility for it too. Understand?
Yes, sir.
First Lieutenant Lee.
Thank you, sir.
No need to thank me.
Be careful next time.
Oh, right. How is Private First Class Seo?
We don't have any medics here yet.
There's a health center in the area. Don't you think he should go?
I'll report it.
Yes, sir. Thank you.
CHUNGONG-RI HEALTH CARE CENTER
I see. Gosh, you received good emergency care.
Right. Our sergeant did it for me.
-Is that so? -Yes.
Let me see.
It's just a light sprain,
so it will get better quickly with a bit of rest.
Oh, okay.
Is the search for landmines going well?
Pardon? Yes. It's going well.
I will get you a heating pack. Please follow me.
Okay. I will get going.
Okay.
Dr. Baek. It's me, Ye-rim.
I know you're in Chungong-ri.
I would like to call you.
What is it?
Why is such a handsome young man sitting here like this?
Did you get dumped?
Yes, I did.
Goodness. Why did you get dumped?
Do you have a bad personality?
Yes, I guess I have a bad personality.
You don't look like it.
Hey, you. Do you want to date me?
What?
My mom married well, so I want to get married well too.
You need to make a lot of money.
Let's see.
Listen.
I'm a mister to you, not you. Also,
I'm older than I look.
You look like it, but you're my style.
Why couldn't you have been born a little later?
Hey, kid. What's your name?
It's Chun Soo-young.
Chun Soo-young? It's a pretty name.
What's your name?
Do you see my name here? It's Yong Dong-jin. Look.
You have a cool name.
He's done.
Right.
Are you his guardian?
Yes. What is that? I'll carry it for you.
It's a heating pack.
I see.
Is he okay?
-Yes. -He said I'll be fine with some rest.
That's good. Let's go.
Yes, sir.
We'll get going now. Salute.
See you again.
-Goodbye. -Goodbye.
What?
Hey, Chun Soo-young.
-My daughter! -What are you doing here?
What is it?
Because it's itchy?
I came here to meet with Dr. Baek because it's itchy.
Should we go in and check?
He's going home.
I told you I'm going to put you through hardcore training if you keep this up.
I won't do this starting tomorrow.
My gosh.
Mom. I saw a really handsome guy.
There are no handsome guys in our neighborhood.
They're all ugly.
Over there. He's one of the guys who came here to look for landmines.
-He said he's from there? -Yes.
Where did you meet him?
Just now at the health center.
I see. I guess they don't have medics yet.
A dead person came back to life? How?
The medical opinion regarding that phenomenon is written on there.
He didn't come back to life.
We believe it's a temporary symptom in his brain.
Is this possible?
I'm asking if this is possible.
I saw it myself.
Am I weird or are you pulling my leg?
Approach it in a logical way.
Does this make sense? Who would believe it?
So what?
Are you saying there's a possibility of infection?
An infection occurred on animal and human contact,
but it didn't occur on human and human contact.
These are the results from First Lieutenant Son Ye-rim's experiment.
Who is she?
She's the first lieutenant who reported the video to you personally.
Oh, her.
That's why we would like to send
First Lieutenant Son Ye-rim to Special Mission Group, Polaris.
If the target in the DMZ has the same symptoms,
what First Lieutenant Son found out would be important.
Send her in.
Yes, sir.
Turn off the lights as you go.
Yes sir.
Goodness. This is killing me.
KOREA CHEMICAL SPECIAL TEAM COMMAND CENTER
IT'S OKAY IF YOU'RE FINE.
-Who is Traitor? -Hold on.
You can go...
Go first if you have something to do.
Who is Traitor?
Hurry up and go inside!
Yes, sir. Be careful.
Why are you so curious?
Why?
Yes? What? Why?
It seemed like you were waiting for my call, so I called you.
I only called you because we're old friends,
and I was worried.
You don't call when you're working.
So if Son Ye-rim calls,
something big happened.
Are you listening?
Are you listening to me, First Lieutenant Son?
Nothing happened, so I'm hanging up.
What?
I worried for her as a brother in arms,
but she's so rude.
Gosh.
Salute.
First Lieutenant Son. Do you have your combat uniform?
Yes, sir.
You have received a DMZ Operation Order.
As of now, you will join the Special Mission Group in Sector 21.
When you're ready, join them right away.
Yes, sir.
KCST
RADIATION DETECTOR
KCST
Darn it. Where am I?
Hey! It's a South Korean punk. Get him!
-What? -Go!
No!
You darn punk.
It's not our troop's gun.
It's the North's.
Check the monitor.
Yes, sir.
Stop there!
You darned punk.
You brat.
You darned brat.
I don't see anything.
We will follow the target.
Sir, given the location where Sergeant Yong went missing
and the location of the gunfire,
I think we should go to Sergeant Yong first.
First Lieutenant Lee. I won't repeat myself.
The target is our first priority.
Follow the target.
I'm okay.
Get him!
Hurry.
-Yes, sir. -He went this way.
Hurry.
What's this?
Gosh.
What in the world is that?
This will not do.
Mac, you can find my team, right?
The people who are dressed like me.
You can find them, right? Go and stay with them.
Go.
I said, go.
Go. Stay with them.
-Have a seat. -Yes, sir.
So the drone isn't working?
No, sir.
That the North is jamming our signals might be the reason.
How about the camera signal?
It's not so good either.
We will set them up for now and see what happens.
We should think of another way of observation.
Sergeant Yong, is the target that fast?
Yes, it's almost as fast as a deer.
What?
A deer?
Is it that slow?
That slow deer can run 70km per hour.
It can swish past you.
Wait, Staff Sergeant Ju.
It's the curfew siren of Chungong-ri.
So calm down.
The villages in the DMZ have curfews.
From 10 p.m. to 5 a.m.
Oh.
Is that so?
Now I'm going to collect the briefing papers.
-Yes, sir. -Yes, sir.
All right.
Sir.
You're different from the person I thought you'd be.
Is that so?
You seemed somewhat uptight at first,
but you're actually pretty sweet.
So you're saying
I look mean, but I'm actually not?
By any chance, is your blood type A?
Sorry. It's B.
I see.
I'm just curious.
What year were you born?
Why do you want to know that?
I'm just curious.
I'm 22. Are you happy now?
What?
So you entered the army right after graduating from high school.
Yes.
I graduated from a military high school.
-He was born in 1999 then. -I have always wanted to be a soldier.
What?
Sorry, sir. It looked very cooled to me.
Why have you always wanted to be a soldier?
I wanted to shoot guns.
Doesn't it just feel amazing when you pull the trigger?
Come on. Stop kidding around.
I'm not kidding.
What about you, Sergeant First Class Park?
Right.
My father used to be a non-commissioned officer.
So did my grandfather.
Which naturally made me a soldier.
Sergeant First Class Park is a born soldier.
Guns are not supposed to be shot to look cool.
Are you saying that to me?
No way, sir. I'm admiring Sergeant First Class Park.
It sounds like you're saying I'm a soldier only on the outside.
Staff Sergeant Ju.
That's what we call the inferiority complex.
-Gosh, my back. -Look at you...
being all rude because you're leaving soon.
Enough.
Sir, he started it.
Sergeants who are leaving the army soon are the scariest.
Let's go to bed, Staff Sergeant Ju.
Come on.
Today's mission is to study the feature of the area
and to set the surveillance cameras in the places
where the target is assumed to have been passed.
And make sure to kill the target on sight
if you find the target while moving. Do you understand?
-Yes, sir! -Yes, sir!
The backup forces will be waiting here. Now, move.
Bye.
It's not working.
Let's set the cameras at the key locations first.
Yes, sir.
-Sergeant Yong. -Yes, sir.
-Lead the team. -Yes, sir.
Let's go.
Move.
What...
Staff Sergeant Ju, have you never had an operation in the DMZ?
What are you saying?
The DMZ is a habitat for about 2,000 insects, 2,000 plants,
and 50 mammals.
And out of 260 endangered species in Korea,
about 100 of them are living here in the DMZ.
Which means we must not step on, touch,
or kill anything here. Do you understand?
Yes...
I mean, okay.
You don't know that every life is valuable, don't you?
Hey, be careful.
Gosh.
Hey.
Hey, hey.
MILITARY USE
Sir, it's set up.
All right. Gather and move to the search area.
Sergeant Yong, move forward with the military dog.
Once the target has been found, stay in place and report immediately.
Sir,
something is spotted at 2 o'clock.
Wait.
-Target found ahead. -Are you sure?
Yes, I am. It's moving like it was the last time.
Are you sure it's not the North Korean DMZ Team?
It's the target for sure?
Sergeant Yong, are you sure it's the target?
Sergeant Yong.
Sergeant Yong!
Sergeant Yong is disconnected.
He's too far away.
I'll find him myself and get him back here.
No. Remain in place.
Goodness.
We have to find Sergeant Yong.
We'll move after getting a grip on the situation.
Hey, stop! I'm shooting if you move.
Sir, I will use my weapon.
The target has been spotted.
Stay aside. All right.
Sir, if we don't shoot now, we'll miss the target.
Mac.
We have to get it.
Run!
Attention!
-Salute! -Salute!
Salute.
You guys seem familiar.
We were a part of the search for the missing person at 329.
I see.
Where's the Special Mission Group now?
Pardon?
Where's the Special Mission Group?
Hold on.
The mission is over at 12 p.m,
and it's a group of five, including the dog handler.
Sergeant Yong is the dog handler,
Sergeant Yong Dong-jin.
Yong Dong-jin?
Yes.
Communications security speaking.
Sergeant Yong is missing?
Do not move!
Put your hands up.
What's a brat from the South
doing over here?
Well,
I got
lost.
Do you know the rules
to being at the DMZ?
Yes,
I do, but...
What are you doing?
He knows the rules. You need to shoot him.
Hold on!
I really got lost. I'll go back.
You prick!
Ri Sung-hoon, you shoot him!
-Sorry? -Shoot him!
Gosh.
No!
Gosh.
Fire!
Here.
Sir,
I think she's telling us where Sergeant Yong is.
Sir!
Sergeant Yong is missing?
What are you doing right now?
Are you planning on going alone?
I don't think that's a good idea.
Watch out!
Listen up. Don't laugh.
