International Film Series "Tae Guk Gi: The Brotherhood of War"
Finishing Thematic Weeks with a movie has become a tradition already.
The movie Tae Guk Gi: The Brotherhood of War is our last event for the Korean Week.
Jin-Tae (Jang Dong-Gun) shines shoes, hoping to save enough money to send his younger brother, Jin-Seok (Won Bin), to university. Their mother runs a noodle shop and wishes the best for her two sons, even though things have been tough since her husband died. But all bets are off when the Korean War erupts and Jin-Seok is unwillingly conscripted into the war, which forces Jin-Tae to enlist just so he can save his brother.
When: Thursday, October 22nd, 6:30 p.m.
Where: Hodges Library Room 253
Cost: Free
