SYNOPSIS

All young South Korean men must serve in the military for almost two years. During this time, they are isolated from society, and many feel helpless in the face of changes in a "world over which they have no control." However, some choose to join the military to escape what they cannot cope with. In a small army unit, far away from the outside world, there is a young soldier who keeps a secret he doesn't want to share with anyone. Every time he's on night watch, he sees smoke rising from the forest.
