“1945 Hashima. We called it hell on earth.”

Roughly 400 Koreans are shipped to Hashima Island during the Japanese occupation and put to work digging coal. Lee Kang-ok (Hwang Jung-min), Choi Chil-sung (So Ji-sub) and Park Moo-young (Song Joong-ki) each arrive with different reasons for being there and different ideas about how to get off it. Ryoo Seung-wan sets the workers against the camp's guards and its mines, and what he keeps in view is that forced labor takes a person's body and their name together.
