Plot:
In 1950, in South Korea, shoeshiner Jintae Lee and his 18yearold old student brother, Jinseok Lee, form a poor but happy family with their mother, Jintae's fiancé Youngshin Kim, and her young sisters. Jintae and his mother are tough workers, who sacrifice themselves to send Jinseok to the university. When North Korea invades the South, the family escapes to a relative's house in the country, but along their journey, Jinseok is forced to join the army to fight in the front, and Jintae enlists too to protect his young brother. The commander promises Jintae that if he gets a medal he would release his brother, and Jintae becomes the braver soldier in the company. Along the bloody war between brothers, the relationship of Jinseok with his older brother deteriorates leading to a dramatic and tragic end.
