Summary

Based on the long running play by Jang Jin, the story is set in Korea during the Korean War in 1950. Soldiers from both the North and South, as well as an American pilot, find themselves in a secluded and naively idealistic village, its residents unaware of the outside world, including the war.

So many war movies I've seen, though excellent, are not fun to watch. This movie is so different. It's fun to watch and still carries the anti-war message. Hat's off to the playwright who thought this one up.
