The Age of Shadows Page #5

Synopsis: Set in the late 1920s, The Age of Shadows follows the cat-and-mouse game that unfolds between a group of resistance fighters trying to bring in explosives from Shanghai to destroy key Japanese facilities in Seoul, and Japanese agents trying to stop them. A talented Korean-born Japanese police officer, who was previously in the independence movement himself, is thrown into a dilemma between the demands of his reality and the instinct to support a greater cause.

one swoop and not alert them.

I understand.

Each of us shall search

through different cabins.

Sorry, I'm just a passer-by.

What happened to my kid's diaper?

The smell was really bad, so...

Pretend you don't know me. Quickly, go!

15 minutes. The cabin in between.

Damn it.

Hwe-ryung.

When we leave the train at Gyeongseong,

we need to change the meetup point.

I feel the meetup

point has been exposed.

Really? Time and location.

Golden Shepherd Hotel, 4 oclock.

I'll tell the rest, don't approach

the others now to avoid complications.

If something goes wrong,

show your travel pass and make a scene. You're

a foreigner. They cannot do anything to you.

Once we arrive at Gyeongseong station, I

want you to take the bombs and rendezvous

at Jongno Tongtaehwa hotel at 5 o'clock.

Okay.

To take preventive measures, we need to

change the meetup point at Gyeongseong.

The new meet up point is

Golden Shepherd hotel.

6 o'clock.

Golden Shepherd hotel, 6 o'clock.

We have changed the place, Jongno

Tongtaehwa hotel, 4 o'clock.

Jongno Tongtaehwa hotel, 4 o'clock.

Dae Song Dong Tailor Shop, 5 o'clock.

Do not let anyone know,

including Shim Sang-do.

I know.

I say, always bumping into you.

I'm in a risky position too.

Please listen to what

I'm going to say now.

I've told all my members, each

of them about the change of plan.

I've given them each a

different time and meeting point.

So before we arrive,

that spy should disclose the

information to Hashimoto's informant.

This will be the spy, the same

person who betrayed Jang-ok.

I've told you it's risky to meet.

You'll only need to let me

know the time and location.

Why should I join your plan?

Please give me a reason.

If they find out you've worked

with us, you'll be in danger too.

Think about it, you have been

giving false intel to the Japanese.

That's why we boarded the train safely.

Prentending to be your people and

getting close to you is my job.

I am a spy, this is

what Higashi permitted.

But you've done a dangerous thing with

us that Higashi doesn't know about.

This fella. You're threatening

me the minute you see me.

We have no other choice now!

Tell me what should I do?

Ignite the explosive, die together?

Brother,

just let us arrive Gyeongseong safely.

I'll wait for you at the

cafe. Quickly, go now.

Damn, fella.

How?

I'm not sure if they're disguised as

old men. I couldn't find them at all.

Have to search again. How's your side?

Have you found our Heroic Corps spy?

I've just met him.

Looks like they have

some change in plans.

So this is our strategy.

The shadow we have

arranged in Heroic Corps,

he will expose those core members

Kim Woo-jin, Yun Gye-soon and others.

The Heroic Corps members don't

know that we're on the train,

so they will head to the train station.

We have our people

surround the train station.

Once they're in the station,

they'll be arrested in one swoop.

So you're saying you won't touch

them until we reach Gyeongseong?

Yes, I'm listening to your advice.

I feel that we are outnumbered by Heroic

Corps members. We may be in danger.

For now, we will have to wait

quietly until we reach Gyeongseong.

We can finally sweep Heroic Corps.

The day to capture Jung Chae-san seems

to be nearing. This is getting exciting.

I'll go get some beer.

Do you want to join?

No, I'm not drinking. You go ahead.

Of course, we've been busy this whole time.

Get some rest. I'll be back in a short while.

May I know what you want to order?

Can you give me a beer?

Yes.

I'll go get some paper towels.

Thank you.

Sorry.

Who are you?

Please excuse me.

It's okay, never mind,

let's continue our meal.

Everything's okay?

I thought you were in

trouble when I didn't see you.

It's too boring in the cabin. Went

out for some fresh air. Any news?

Yes.

Where? What time?

Golden Shepherd Hotel.

Golden Shepherd Hotel.

4 o'clock.

4 o'clock.

You have to think carefully. Don't cause

trouble on the train, or we'll all die together.

You're on your own from now on.

Don't look for...

Hey, Kim Woo-jin. Looks

like we have to end here.

Didn't you say you'd rest at your seat?

I thought it over,

and decided to join

Captain Lee for a beer.

A cup of beer, please.

Yes.

Nice disguise.

Is there nothing to tell me?

Don't you think this person looks

like someone we're looking for?

What are you talking about?

Damn bastard. From now

onwards, I will be in command.

I will be ordering, and

you should just follow.

I'm a policeman, show

me your identification.

Wait, don't move.

Hey!

My ID is in the bag, do

you want to get it yourself?

You two listen carefully,

or we can all die here.

This will depend on who

takes out the other first.

You have to think carefully.

Kim Woo-jin.

Now!

You bastard!

Get away, get away!

Damn bastard, you never listen to me.

Get away, get away!

I am a Japanese Police Captain.

I'm on an operation. Do not

panic, get back to your seats.

Yes.

Everyone, get back to your seat!

Did you have a change of heart?

It's not a change of

heart, but determination.

I've lost faith a long time ago.

I've given up.

How can you give up so easily?

If only we could have success at least

once, I wouldn't have changed so easily.

Do you really think we can obtain independence

by risking our lives and throwing a few bombs?

I can't act ignorant anymore.

Even if we manage to reach

Gyeongseong, it doesn't change anything.

We have no hope.

I'm giving us a way out...

Giving us a way out? Who to

who? From you to me? To us?

If wasn't for you, you all, I

would have exposed everything.

Just because you're my

friend, you're my family.

Shouldn't you thank me?

I want to avenge Jang-ok.

I am not your friend, and

I have no empathy for you.

Are you going to let this

westerner kill me? Really?

On behalf of Heroic Corps, I am

exterminating the enemy's spy.

Woo-jin!

See you in hell.

Once we reach Gyeongseong,

I do not know you.

Bring this off the train with you.

After this goodbye, if it's

not you who's dead, it'll be me.

Or we'll both die.

Gyeongseong Station

Rubik.

No, I am not this person.

- Arrest him.

- No, you can't do this to me!

Yun Gye-soon!

Run!

Give way! Give way!

Arrest him!

Give way! Give way!

Calm down, calm down, calm down.

Let go of me!

Calm down.

Sorry.

How's your body?

I can work immediately.

A gun shot and falling off a train,

and yet you look only lightly injured.

What a luck.

It's sad to lose Hashimoto,

but you have done a good job.

I've heard you've thrown a good

bait to capture the big fish.

Can you recognise her?

I know you can speak many languages,

but Joseon should be your most fluent.

Here is a person who can

speak with you in Joseon.

Ask her the whereabouts of Kim Woo-jin.

Where is Kim Woo-jin?

Wait a minute.

How is this enough?

Kim Woo-jin. Where is Kim Woo-jin?

You'll be all right once you talk.

I don't know, I really don't know.
