Taegukgi: Brotherhood of War

The entire movie Taegukgi: The Brotherhood of War can be accessed below. Released in 2004 in South Korea, it tells the story of two brothers who are forcibly drafted into the South Korean Army at the outbreak of the Korean War. Understandably, you do not have time to view the entire movie, so you will need to fast forward to the designated minute markers Dr. Hartnell has listed for you below. View that particular clip, then move to the next. The movie is in Korean but there is a way to get English subtitles to appear on the screen. To do this, open up the movie, click the "CC" button at the bottom right-hand side of the screen. Then click the gear logo next to the "CC" button. This will put English subtitles on the screen.
