Summary

Description
English: Four sailors from a North Korean ship that sank after colliding with a South Korean naval ship on Baengnyeong Island are suddenly roaming naked before being repatriated to North Korea at Panmunjom. They took off their menswear, shirts, wristwatches, shoes, socks, etc., threw them away, and went up north screaming while wearing only their underpants. They were not the ones who cut the armistice line, but in order to cross that line, it was a sad homecoming that they could not go back to without losing compatriots' love and humanitarianism intact.
