The musical begins with war veteran Seung Ho wandering around the mountains of the Dabu neighborhood in search of the remains of his comrades who died in combat. Scenes of the present day Seung Ho, who returns to find his fellow soldiers, as well as the the young Seung Ho who fought during the Korean War, will alternate throughout the musical. This year, the musical will also honor the 70th anniversary of the Korean War and the 3.17 million soldiers who fought in the war for their service and sacrifice.
