Welcome To Dongmakgol


Summary

Dongmakgol is a village tucked away on a remote mountain and untouched by the ongoing Korean War. Fate brings three fighting forces together in Dongmakgol: a U.S. fighter pilot whose plane crashed in the mountains, three retreating North Korean soldiers and two South Korean soldiers who are lost. When the North and South Korean soldiers first face off in Dongmakgol they raise their arms, but the charming villagers soon have the soldiers agreeing to a temporary truce. In order to spare the village from complete destruction from US soldiers believing there are North American soldiers nearby, the soldiers decide to work together to divert the attack, possibly placing themselves directly in harm's way.


My Comments

I love films based on the conflict between South Korean and North Korea. For me, this movie was just ahhh Amazing! I cried and laughed in this movie. I loved the beautiful innocence of the villagers unaware of the war surrounding them. I really dont want to give too much away but this was a brilliant movie and it sold a total of 8,008,622 tickets in 2005 and won 11 awards


My Favourite quote


  • Soldier: You have such a hold on the villagers without ever raising your voice, What's the secret to your great leadership?
  • Villager: You just gotta feed them a lot.
