The Battleship Island

Lee Kang-Ok is a bandmaster at a Kyungsung hotel. He leaves for Japan to protect his daughter, but they get sent to Hashima (Battleship Island) labour camp instead, where they are imprisoned and forced to mine for coal. Also sent to the camp are Choi Chil Seong, Kyungsung`s best street fighter who constantly stirs up trouble while at the labour camp, and Park Moo-Yeong, a freedom fighter who infiltrates the island to rescue a key figure in the independence movement that is held captive there. They are among the 400 Korean workers who risk their lives to escape Hashima and their forced labour.
Lee Kang-OK adalah seorang kondukter muzik di hotel Kyungsung. Dia telah meninggalkan Jepun untuk melindungi anak perempuannya, tetapi mereka telah dihantar ke Hashima (Pulau Peperangan) iaitu kem buruh, di mana mereka dipenjara dan dipaksa untuk bekerja di lombong arang. Turut menerima nasib sama adalah Choi Chil Seong, seorang pelawan jalanan terbaik di Kyungsung yang sering menimbulkan masalah ketika di kem buruh, dan Park Moo-Yeong, pejuang kebebasan yang berjaya menyelinap masuk untuk menyelamatkan individu penting dalam pergerakan kebebasan yang dipenjara di sana. Mereka adalah antara 400 pekerja Korea yang mempertaruhkan nyawa mereka untuk melarikan diri dari Hashima.

Watch this if you liked: “Wolf Warrior 2”

The Good, the Bad and the Korean Labourers :

• The movie has a strong patriotic element in it though it might not be the best entry in the war genre.

• It is still entertaining nonetheless considering that it is fictional despite being set against the backdrop of a real place and an actual chapter in World War II history.

• Which is why, the movie is very much similar to Quentin Tarantino's 2009 historical fantasy "Inglourious Basterds", and even borrows several elements from the movie.

• On the plus side, it is interesting to watch the comedic relationship development between the two main characters, along with the horrific conditions that they are placed in, making the story very realistic and relatable.

Trivia:

• So Ji-sub had a naked scene in the bathhouse, and he also had to fight naked wearing only underwear.
