White Badge (1992)

White Badge 1992 / 하얀전쟁 1992 /

In 1979, after the assassination of President Park Chung Hee, Han Ki Ju is paid to write about his experiences in the Vietnam War. He is reluctant at first, but a reunion with mentally scarred Army buddy Pyon Chin Su brings back the haunting memories of war. ‟White Badge‟ is a harsh condemnation of war, treatment of veterans, and the pervasive American influence in South Korea. ~~ Adapted from the critically-acclaimed novel ‟White Badge‟ by veteran Ahn Jung Hyo.
