In 1979, after the Planned demise 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.
