Let's say your Number One gets

the treatment he needs and survives.

We'll make sure he can live.

But, then what?

How will you take him back to the North?

You son of a b*tch.

Those men...

who tried to kill you and Number One

in Ilsan.

They're your people, right?

In this situation...

getting our help will be...

-your wisest bet.

-Shut up, you prick.

Your country will declare war soon.

We hereby declare war

on the US and South Korea.

American imperialists and their puppets,

South Koreans,

bombed the Kaesong Industrial Complex

yesterday, targeting our Dear Leader

and top commanding officers

who were on site.

In response to this unpardonable atrocity,

the Supreme Command

has decided to terminate

the armistice agreement and declare war.

If you see them doing anything suspicious,

kill them all.

There will be nothing but victory

for our nation of heroes.

Once war breaks out,

our people and mighty army

will burn all those American invaders

and the pathetic mutts at the Blue House

with our invincible nuclear bombs.

I'll declare martial law. Get ready.

How is he?

He could die if he isn't transferred to

a bigger hospital for surgery immediately.

But...

why did we declare war?

Hey, who's in control of Pyongyang now?

It's Gwang-dong Park.

It was the only way

to stop the frontline troops

from forcing their way into the city.

This phone is being tapped.

We got attacked in Ilsan and nearly died.

I think...

We should ask

the government here for help.

That's the only way

we can save his life, sir.

Hey, Comrade Eom.

Make sure you aren't being tapped.

They declared war just for a show.

It's all because of the coup

led by Gwang-dong Park,

the Supreme Guard Commander.

He did it to make sure

the frontline troops can't be mobilized,

so the South must not

do anything reckless and just wait.

You want us to do nothing and wait it out?

Does that even make sense to you?

Save our leader's life as you promised.

And let our frontline troops

go to Pyongyang

so that they can stop the coup.

Please convince

your government to help us.

It's the only way

we can save this peninsula.

A nuclear strike on North Korea

will result in immense damage

from EMP and radiation.

If it absolutely cannot be avoided,

we will gladly go to war.

However, we should only resort to war

when all other options are exhausted.

And a nuclear war...

He's right.

We requested this meeting.

We appreciate your cordial review

and suggestions regarding this matter.

Could you please tell us

roughly how much time can be given to us

without hindering the operation?

CHEOL-U KWAK

I got Number One, but he's unconscious.

As President of the Republic of Korea,

-I order the preemptive nuclear...

-Mr. President.

Mr. Kwak.

These are what we found at the scene.

This military uniform and the chocolate

were found inside the van.

-Keep them separate.

-Okay.

All clear. No threat of danger.

-Send this to the digital forensic lab.

-Got it.

My fellow citizens. In accordance

with Article 77 of the Constitution

as well as Articles Two and Ten

of the Martial Law Act,

I declare nationwide martial law

as of 6:
00 a.m. on December 25.

My dear fellow citizens.

Please stay calm and go on

with your daily lives.

I ask that you cooperate with us,

the government,

and the Martial Law Command.

So, what do you think?

According to the polygraph,

it looks like everything he said is true.

What about the girl?

I don't think she knows anything, sir.

My, I must say...

-You impressed me with this one.

-Thank you, sir.

You went to see your ex-wife

during a national crisis

and ended up capturing

the leader of our enemy.

Not too bad for a stand-in.

Good work.

I'm very impressed.

Have a good day, sir.

He can't see us, right?

That's right.

-He has something to say.

-To me?

How's the Great Leader?

I have reported to my higher-ups

that your government is helping,

so it will be your country's fault

if anything happens to him.

Well, you people started this mess.

Why do we have to take the blame?

The first round is done,

so you should get some rest.

If anything happens to him,

there will definitely be war!

Okay.

Chief Park of National Security must have

leaked the information about you getting

Number One while you were bringing him.

-I heard they responded right away.

-Who are "they"?

Those in the North will come

to confirm in person and talk.

While you were gone, we almost agreed

to a preemptive nuclear strike.

The President-elect said

we should decide

after meeting their representative.

We stopped the war for the time being.

So, who's coming?

And who will meet him?

Well, that's the thing.

We insisted on deciding what to do

after meeting them,

but they won't tell us anything.

Those at the Blue House keep insisting

that they'll send someone from their team.

They obviously want all the credit.

Chief Park is a very ambitious man.

-Hello, sir.

-Hello, sir.

What has he been up to?

He's just been sleeping, sir.

-Has he eaten?

-He keeps refusing to eat.

It's me.

I picked up a burger for you.

Do you know what a burger is?

What's it called in the North?

A bun with meat?

Is that how you folks call it?

Try a taste of capitalism.

I saw in the investigation report

that your name is Cheol-u too,

Cheol-u Eom.

Maybe we were really meant to cross paths.

We have the same name. I'm Cheol-u Kwak.

What does your name mean?

Mine means "bright world"

in Chinese characters.

So, you were born in 1977.

Then, I'm a year older.

Let's just talk casually like friends.

Show me some respect, will you?

Answer me at least. Jeez.

What's wrong?

Hey. Guys, call a doctor!

-Now!

-It's okay.

Just give me some painkillers.

Take all this back.

He's asking for this though.

Let's give him this.

Sure, that's no problem.

Here.

You should get treated for your addiction

and quit drugs for good while you're here.

You're still young, you know.

You have many years left to live.

It looks like you're cold.

Do you want the burger?

So?

They'll use the tunnels

if their visit is confidential.

Tunnels?

We have dug about 20 underground tunnels

in the last 60 years or so.

I heard that about five to six of them

can still be used.

Underground tunnels, I see.

Then, who's coming?

The RGB controls and manages

all underground tunnels.

Only the chief director can open them up

in emergency situations.

The chief director? Are you talking about

Chief Director Tae-han Ri of the RGB?

Wait.

From what I know,

he's one of the most prominent

hardliners against us

He's coming down here to stop the war?

You guys can't handle my country

with such a dichotomous way of thinking.

Just kill him as soon as he gets here

and start the war, then.

Jeez, calm down.

You're sure Tae-han Ri is coming, right?

If our leader recovers,

Gwang-dong Park's coup will fail.

He'll come to make sure that's the case.

Take me to where the meeting will be held.
