Taegukgi: The Brotherhood of War is a 2004 film from South Korea, directed by Je-kyu Kang, telling the story of two brothers caught up in The Korean War.Lee Jin-tae (Jang Dong-gun) and Lee Jin-seok (Won Bin) are brothers who live with their mother in the family noodle shop in Seoul. Jin-tae has a side business with a shoe-shine stand, and is working to send his bookish younger brother Jin-seok to college. Jin-tae is also engaged to pretty Young-shin, who works at the noodle shop. This happy life is ruined on June 25, 1950, when North Koreans with Nodongs invade South Korea, starting the Korean War. Jin-seok is forcibly conscripted into the South Korean army, and when his brother tries to pull him off the train, Jin-tae is conscripted too. An officer promises Jin-tae that if he can win the Order of Military Merit, South Korea's highest military decoration, he can get a discharge for his brother. Jin-tae then begins to seek out the most dangerous missions in order to win that medal, but his pursuit of glory alienates his unsuspecting little brother.Taegukgi is one of the few feature films set in the Korean War. It became one of the biggest hits in the history of South Korean film. The title is a reference to the "taegukgi", the South Korean flag. | |

Tragedy | |
Taegukgi / int_11cac491 | comment |
Tragedy: An entire family is torn apart by Jin-tae's arrogance and subsequent descent into madness. There isn't even a single moment of legitimate comedy to break the tension. | |

Hero Antagonist | |
Taegukgi / int_1501e2dd | comment |
Hero Antagonist: At some notable occasions the South Korean military acted as this towards the leading brothers and mostly got the upper hand over them, whether it is to forcibly conscript them within the ranks, the militia trying stop them for trying to interfere with their execution of communist collaborators by rescuing Young-shin and finally the prison commander ordering the cells destroyed with Jin-seok inside. All of this culminated in Jin-tae defecting to the North due to his and his friends' and family's mistreatment and eventual deaths, except Jin-seok who actually lived, at the hands of the South Koreans. | |

Taegukgi / int_2c1f1138 | comment |
He Who Fights Monsters: In order to fight the communist threat and reacting to communist atrocities, the South Korean military dipped down to this level, committing atrocities of their own. Jin-tae's Big Brother Instinct also corrupted him in battle as he regularly partook in such atrocities. | |

Roaring Rampage of Revenge | |
Taegukgi / int_ceec4df5 | comment |
Roaring Rampage of Revenge: Deconstructed viciously when Jin-tae's battalion attack a North Korean stronghold and kill every communist soldier they can find, in revenge for the village massacre. While the South Koreans' rage is perfectly justified, it's pretty clear they've become just as bad as their enemies. The communists are trying to surrender while being butchered, and it's unclear if they're even the ones who slaughtered the village in the first place. It all comes across as a manifestation of the fratricidal brutality unique to civil wars. | |

When Young-shin is executed and Jin-seok is thought to have been burned to death, Jin-tae defects to the North and becomes their personal killing machine of an Ax-Crazy Sociopathic Soldier as a result. | |

Last Stand: Jin-tae buys time for Jin-seok to escape by gunning down as much communist soldiers as he can before he kicks the bucket. | |

Taegukgi / int_ff7f34c5 | comment |
Pet the Dog: In the middle of the South Korean reprisal, Jin-soek finds himself aiming his rifle at a hysterical North Korean, who begs him to not pull the trigger. Jin-soek fires over the man's head, hitting a wall as the North Korean sobs in relief. | |
