A guerilla army unit led by Captain Lee Myung Joon (Kim Myung Min) and 772 student soldiers, including Choi Sung Pil (Minho Choi), are on the ship Moonsanho and their destination is Jangsari. Their mission is to deceive the North Koreans into thinking opposition forces would launch a decisive invasion there. The real invasion and battle will take place in Incheon one day later. The average age of the 772 student soldiers on the ship was 17 and they had only 2 weeks of training. With little ammunition, low food
supplies and second-hand weapons, the soldiers head for the frontlines of Jangsari under a shower of bullets. Based on the true story of forgotten heroes of the Korean War, can the student soldiers successfully carry out their mission and turn the tide of the war?
