Sypnosis:

Jin Tae shines shoes hoping to save money to send his younger brother Jin Seok to university. Their mother runs a noodle shop wishing the best for her two sons even though things have been tough since her husband has passed away. Sending Jin Seok to university has become the shining light in their family's everyday lives. With the start of the Korean War, Jin Seok is unwillingly conscripted into the war, which forces Jin Tae to join the war to save his brother and send him back to his mother. Without money or influence, the only hope to save his brother is for Jin Taae to enlist in suicidal missions in order to earn the Medal of Honor, which will guarantee Jin Seok's release. Jin Seok fails to understand his brother's actions and misinterprets them as a dangerous mix of patriotism and an obsession with fame and glory. It is only at the fatal end that Jin Seok realizes the truth of his brother's sacrifice.
