Based on the true story that is known as the second battle of Yeonpyeong, this movie tells the story of some of the young soldiers who fought and died in the battle. The battle took place in the yellow sea on 29th of June in 2002, when two North-Korean vessels boarded the NLL - the Northern Limit Line - and fired at the South-Korean patrol boat named Chamsuri 357, killing six men and left 18 injured. —Anonymus

Trivia
Director Kim Hak-soon acquired the rights of the same-named novel by Choi Soon-jo in 2006 and planned to film the movie in 2007. But the families of the soldiers who had died in the battle had been against the movie, so Kim stopped the Project back then. But after the sinking of the war-ship Cheonan in 2010, the families made contact with Kim Hak-soon and asked him to do the movie.

Goofs
ER doctors shocking a flat line cardiac condition (twice) and getting a heart beat reestablished (once). The shock is done to stop the heart beating in an irregular rhythm which then allows the intrinsic pacemaker to take over and produce a regular rhythm. In other words, shocking the heart produces a flat line which allows a regular rhythm to take over. Shocking a flat line is not done because there is no rhythm to reset; it only produces a continuing flat line. AEDs are programmed not to shock a flat line and it is not done manually either.

5/10

Not well directed

This is a realistic tragic story of an attack on a South Korean ship by the North. It's not a heroic battle type war movie. It's actually a massacre at sea which is unusual to see on screen. There is a rather slow part showing the background of the characters. During the attack it's hard to distinguish who is who sometimes. Bad directing. Still the story is quite moving because of the tragic loss of life for such a frustrating conflict.
