SYNOPSIS:
Can the cruelties of war destroy the ties of BROTHERHOOD?

The full impact of brotherly love is shown in this touching Korean blockbuster that teams up superstars Jang Dong Gun and Won Bin. Its tale revolves around two brothers who are enlisted in the army by force during the outbreak of the Korean War in the 50's. Jang Dong Gun makes every effort to excel in his duties in order to achieve an early release from the military services for his younger brother (Won Bin). Unaware of his older brother's good intentions, the misunderstandings between the two involuntary soldiers keep on accumulating until the younger brother unintentionally comes across an un-posted letter to his family and makes a fateful decision ...

Breaking a new record in the history of Korean movies, BROTHERHOOD devoured a production cost of $12.8 million. However, the expenses seem to have paid off well as it continued to become a week-long nationwide success selling no less than two million tickets in merely five days.
