London Korean Film Night: The Unforgiven (2005)
Newly recruited into the South Korean army, Seungyoung finds that his commanding officer, Sergeant Taejeong is an old school friend. His Sergeant takes his friend under his wing, and tries to help the stubborn and contrary Seungyoung, adjust to the strict hierarchies and harshness of military life.
As time passes, Seungyoung’s resistance wears down, and he finds himself understanding, and even becoming more like the superior officers he struggled against. Matters come to a head when he is given command of Jihoon, a slovenly newcomer whose constant incompetence tests Seungyoung’s patience, and eventually forces him to act.
