Three days have passed since

the hostilities at JSA.

Efforts to hold a joint investigation

between the Koreas have failed,

but recently negotiators

achieved a key breakthrough.

Authorities from both countries

have agreed this afternoon

to comply with an

investigation by the NNSC.

Tensions have been running high

amid suspicions of a

Northern nuclear program

and the advance of U.S.

naval vessels into the East Sea.

Both Koreas recognize the need

to handle the recent conflict

calmly and objectively,

and to avoid having this

trivial matter escalate into war.

In accordance with the agreement,

the NNSC is planning to dispatch

Swiss and Swedish law officers

with practical experience in this field.

If a battle starts,

shoot the bastards.

You couldn't kill even one?

You call yourself a soldier?

I thought my primary mission

was to rescue Sergeant Lee.

So?

So that's why you

couldn't aim straight?

Was your order to

shoot down trees?

My order was to scare them off

and give cover to the rescue team.

What?

You sure you weren't

the one scared off?

I didn't want to start a war, sir.

What? A soldier afraid of war?

You stupid...

What?

Reporting, sir!

War doesn't break out that easily.

Now go.

Yes, sir!

This incident...

...isn't it rather obvious?

Some commies kidnap our soldier,

and claim he crossed over voluntarily.

- Am I right?

- Correct, sir!

Our boy... what's your name again?

Sergeant Lee Soo Hyuk, sir!

Right, Soo Hyuk.

Let's wrap this up quickly so Soo Hyuk

can take a leave of absence.

Our boy here took out

two of the bastards.

He's a hero!

Wouldn't you say, Major Jean?

Your opinion will be noted

in the investigation.

The NNSC will now be

taking custody of the suspect.

No South Korean military officials

may enter without my permission.

Neutral Nations

Supervisory Commission?

There are two kinds

of people in this world.

Commie bastards...

and the Commie bastards' enemies.

Neutral has no place here.

You have to choose sides.

You're from law school, right?

I trust you'll make a wise choice.

I'm Major Sophie Jean from Switzerland.

This is Captain Perrson from Sweden.

He's still in shock.

He was hit with a blunt object.

That bruise proves

that he was kidnapped.

- Deposition -

Get down!

He looks like one of ours!

Soo Hyuk! Soo Hyuk!

Right over the

Military Demarcation Line.

Doesn't it seem a bit acted out?

This is where Lieutenant

Choi's body was found.

And that's where Private Jung fell.

A basement bunker...

Private Jung was a talented artist.

He even won a prize in a national contest.

He was popular among the soldiers

for drawing their girlfriends.

RICE IS COMMUNISM

As soon as Lee Soo Hyuk

left our post,

Southern soldiers

stormed in as if on cue.

It's a good thing that

Sergeant Oh survived.

Otherwise the South would

go on spouting lies,

calling it a

North Korean provocation.

That's exactly what

they're saying now.

Who's going to believe it?

We have a witness.

Don't get up.

This is Major Jean from the NNSC.

Are you okay?

No big deal. It's nothing.

This is from a terrorist in Libya.

Sliced me with his knife.

Once in Egypt, I had to scrape

out shrapnel with a gun spike.

Wanna see?

Really?

Shall we take a look?

I'm glad you're okay.

Now then, can you

tell me about that night?

It's all in my deposition.

You mean the deposition you

made and signed while barely conscious?

Stupid wench.

What did you just say?

Why is it you all have depositions,

but nobody will talk to me?

Hey Lieutenant,

tell us about your vacation.

It was the same as any other.

It was nothing special.

Get down!

Shot twice.

Once in the right chest,

crushing the ribs

and passing through the lung.

But that wasn't the fatal shot.

The second one was the real killer.

Judging from the angle,

it was shot at point blank.

As for the next one...

A total of eight shots.

Unbelievable...

Shot from such a close range,

they went right through him.

The first shot hit his face,

probably killing him instantly.

The rest were just

shot into a dead body.

Lee Soo Hyuk.

Now there's a man.

I can see that.

Once while he was on duty,

those guys over there

cursed our president.

When Soo Hyuk heard this,

He took a rock and

smashed their window.

So I rounded up my

men and then told him

"All right! Way to go!"

Once he got left behind

on a search mission.

Man, the squad was in uproar.

Four hours later he shows up again.

Says he stepped on a mine

and had to dismantle it.

Damn!

Anyway, I knew then.

This guy, he's something else.

Nerves of steel, I tell you.

Nam Sung Shik,

you were on duty with Sergeant

Lee on the day of the incident.

- Right?

- Yes, ma'am!

I'm not deaf.

Why did Sergeant Lee go out alone?

An urgent call of nature.

Can a soldier leave

his post for that?

He said people with constipation

should seize a chance

when it comes.

Please load the gun

as you would normally.

So you refuse to say anything?

I visited the North side

and saw the corpses.

If you just wanted to escape,

why shoot a man 8 times?

I brought photos of the bodies.

Do you want to see them?

No.

I don't want to see them.

You've got a nice voice.

Your fellow soldiers say you're

very quick with the gun.

Are you really that fast?

Will you show me?

What's important in

battle isn't speed.

It's carrying yourself

with composure and bravery.

That's everything.

Alright, then.

Can you load the gun

again, just like before?

Are you really a Swiss soldier?

Does Sergeant Lee talk much

about army life?

He tries to, but I don't let him.

Has he ever talked

about, for example...

How he went

on any missions,

or if he got special training?

Special training?

Can you zip me up?

Soo Jung, you don't

worry about Sergeant Lee?

We're not really that serious.

What kind of person is he, in a word?

Well...

Oh, you can tell by

how he treats my brother.

Since we were kids my brother

never had many friends.

But after enlisting, things got

much better, thanks to Soo-Hyuk.

He's very warm-hearted.

Probably because he grew

up poor, like us.

Wait a second...

Your brother?

You didn't know?

Private Nam Sung Shik,

they're in the same platoon.

He kept asking me to

meet Soo Hyuk, so I did.

What?

Is there something on my face?

No, not at all.

There were 11 bullet wounds on

the three North Korean soldiers.

but one was never found.

It's a missing bullet.

There were 5 left in your gun.

If you add these up,

Since you aren't in the habit

of loading an extra bullet,

you had to begin with.

Then,

what's this one bullet?

It was neither shot by you

nor recovered later.

Yet it pierced through

a soldier's body.

If someone hid the bullet,

it means he's afraid it might

reveal whose gun fired it.
