I am afraid of fighting
I am afraid of being beaten
and losing
But I am more afraid of
surviving as a cripple
than dying while I am fighting!
I hear the wind howl
I hear the fear inside of me

JAPAN
You stowed away, didn't you?
Are you from Korea?
Don't you know how long
stowaways go to jail?
I like it
that you're honest!
I'm the one
who finds rats like you
A de detective?
Give me everything you've got!
You want to go to jail or what?
Ow! You bastard!
You're Korean?
Uh, it's essential for a detective
to speak Korean Essential!
Hey! You hit a detective?
You want to go to jail?
OK, my name's Chunbae
I'm Korean, too!
You bastard!
That's him!
Yes! He went that way! That way!
The bastard should be dead!
Stop there!
Stop!
Shit! How come that bastard's
fists are faster than his words?
Chunbae!
Get him!
Chunbae, you bastard!
You'll be dead
when I get you!
Chunbae!
What are you doing there?
Are you selling anything interesting
today? I've got money!
Come here
Chunbae!
What's that?
Chunbae!
Where is that bastard?
Like some kind of rabbit
Aviation school?
You want to go there?
What for?
To be a pilot
Well, well You have no idea
what the world is like
It's no use being a pilot
or whatever
You'll just die in the war
I don't care about
dying or living
Oh, well, whatever
So... when are you
going to get off?
I won't
A VIATION SCHOOL
You'll get hurt
Better than dying
you bastard!
There he is
Help!
Chunbae
You'll be dead
when I get you
Hey, why do you keep beating me?
I'm not your punching bag
END OF THE PACIFIC WAR - 1945
A
Stop!
That's how I began to dream
of being a pilot
But the end of the Pacific War
ended my dream
Stop!
You'll be dead
The end of the war
was driving people mad
Who are they?
They're Koreans who refused
to fly in the Kamikaze
Let them go!
But
Yes, sir!
The Kamikaze is a sacred ceremony
We can't stain it
with the blood of Koreans
You bastards!
You're just using us
as human shields
When did you teach us
how to fly?
Shit!
Who the hell are you?
What insolence
you Korean!
How dare you defy
His Majesty's rule?
Fine, shoot me
Pilot? Aviation school?
I don't give a damn anymore
Go ahead, you bastards!
Stop it
Not bad for a greenhorn
What's that silly skill?
It's called Taekkyeon
a Korean martial art
Korean martial arts?
Let me make an offer
If you defeat me in a fight, I'll
let you and your friends live
But if you lose, I'll
only kill you Gruesomely
What do you think?
It seems you care
about your life indeed
Baedal!
Are you scared?
Showing your back in a fight
you certainly are Korean
You don't have enough honor
to learn martial arts
Baedal, Baedal!
Wake up!
And so that year passed...
Japan surrendered unconditionally
because of the atomic bomb
And my country was liberated
However, only devastation was left
after the war ended
Similarly, my courage was left
in ruins after that defeat
Give me a chocolate
Give me a chocolate
Give me a chocolate

Go away!
Get out of here
Oh, hello, sir!
How are you?
I was just about to pay
my tax to you
You've already been working here
for days without permission
You want to pay your taxes now?
That machine, the 'pachinko'
or whatever, is very interesting
Give it to me!
Oh please, not my machine!
No! My pachinko!
Oh, that guy, he's Korean
Kill him!
- Chunbae!
- Baedal!
Look at him
I'm going to kill you!
Is that urine?
The bed-wetter of Ikebukuro
The bed-wetter of Ikebukuro!
The bed-wetter of Ikebukuro!
You should pay with your life
You eat what you spilt
Then crawl between my legs saying
I'm the bed-wetter of Ikebukuro'
If you don't...
Baedal!
No, don't do that!
Shut up!
No! Don't!
Please don't, Baedal!
You want to die?
I, Choi Baedal
am the bed-wetter of Ikebukuro
Louder, you Korean!
Look at that HAHA
I, Choi Baedal
am the bed-wetter of Ikebukuro
Baedal
What you did was very wrong
Well, well, look who's here
You still have the habit of
getting into people's business
You want to lose
your other hand, too?
Bastard!
Bumsoo
Baedal
Bumsoo, I'm sorry to show myself
to you like this
greatest circus!
Can you have ti see it
Man on the fly
beautiful women on the swing
A man walking on the rope
Here, have some soup
Oh, kimchi Great!
It's been quite long
By the way, those yakuzas
do you know them?
You cannot avoid dealing with them
when you're the guard for a circus
They're extra trouble for a troupe
like ours, with lots of Koreans
Aren't those ration tickets?
They're as good as money
Why don't you use them
instead of just collecting them?
We are planning to build a school
for the Korean kids in this area
They shouldn't forget our language
even though they've left Korea
I see
Baedal, how are your parents?
Bumsoo!
Teach me
how to be a fighter
Bumsoo wouldn't give up his will
Baedal must be very cold
You, poor thing!
Baedal!
Bumsoo!
Baedal, if you make a fist
you can't grasp anything
not friends, not earth
nor sky
But if you unclench your fist
you can hold the whole world
Baedal, practice martial arts hard
to protect yourself
Bumsoo, why are you saying that?
You understand what I mean?
Get him!
Follow him!
Get him!
Shoot!
Get him!
Little master, use your abilities
to protect yourself and others
Live fairly, and protect
the things you care about
What's he doing?
I remember he said he would never
teach the martial arts as they can be
as deadly as poison
Well, he must be different
from someone
Damn
What? How rude you are
to an old lady like me!
Bastard!
BOOK OF FIVE RINGS
BY MIYAMOTO MUSASHI
Justice without power is empty but
power without justice is only
violence
A warrior always keeps
his sword sharp but he never
draws it without a cause
Miyamoto Musashi
the best swordsman ever
will be a good teacher for you
Pachinko!
Pachinko!
I'm sorry
You stupid bastards!
Go away!
You bastard!
What's happening?
Ahem, it's your fault
Don't be rude
Apologize now
I'm sorry
Japan Karate Association
The bed-wetter of Ikebukuro!
That's what people call you
these days
Is that why you begged
for your life? To live like that?
You are shameless!
What made Miyamoto Musashi
different from other warriors
as that he dreamed of being
the best fighter in the world
The best, the strongest man
in the world!
That is what you should dream of
to be as strong as your name
Baedal, 'the Korean people'
If you practice for
a thousand days
you're still a beginner
But if you practice for
ten thousand days
you can become a master
This is kyokushin
or 'pure truth'
The spirit of kyokushin means to do
your best, until the last moment
Today, I'm still walking
aimlessly
Help our lady!
Please help!
Stop it!
Let's go!
We shouldn't have seen it
- What the fuck up bitch
- Help, please help the lady!
Officer! Help!
Those bastards are worse
than the police or yakuzas!
Let's go, hurry!
Please, help!
Please!
Please, don't do this!
Somebody help!
The Japs don't protect
their own girls
Why are you getting involved?
Shit!
Help
please help
Help!
Somebody help!
Do you speak Korean?
No?
How about Gyeongsang dialect?
Bastards
Baedal!
What are you doing? Let's go
Baedal, Baedal
Hey, you stupid fool
Are you crazy?
You have no idea what kind
of bastards they are
My goodness you idiot
And why are you smiling like?
You got a crush on her?
What?
You want me to teach you
something nice?
Catch birds at once
That girl
Oh, well, what am I doing now
What is it?
What is it?
It's getting cold
Hey, what are you waiting for?
Go out and work
You came here to sightsee?
Why? Too embarrassing?
You're a rickshaw-man
what do you worry about?
Wear a hat
then no one will recognize you
Hey!
What?
Is that what you meant
by something nice?
Why, you don't like?
Idiot it
Crazy bastard
don't complain Go!
Youko! You've got a crush
on him, don't you?
Setsu!
Setsu! Have you heard
of the brave tiger?
The brave tiger?
The mythical hero?
No, I mean, recently
Ah, the man who saves girls
from American soldiers?
That's just a story
That man who helped me
maybe he was the brave tiger?
Heck, no!
I'm sure he was the brave tiger
If not, how come he would risk
his life to save me?
Then you think the guy who saved
you is a hero? The brave tiger?
A hero is protecting girls
in this neighborhood?
WANTED
Youko
Somebody to see you Go outside
What are you doing?
Get off!
Get off! Hurry!
Don't move!
They're after you, aren't they?
Don't worry
I won't tell the police
You saved me the other day
didn't you? The brave tiger?
Oh, well, that is
This scar it's from that day
It must've been very painful
Thank you, Miss Youko
Thank you for your kind help
Oh? How do you know my name,
Baedal?
Oh, I could ask the same of you
You seem about my age
Baedal! Let's be friends!
Friends?
Get on
Thank you
Let's go
Thank you
Youko, Youko
wait a minute
Here
Thank you Oh, Baedal
I'll give some of my noodles
Thank you
Baedal, slow down
Are you Ok?
Follow me
Long time no see, brave tiger?
I don't understand
Don't you know what we did
to Korean women?
Why are you helping
Japanese women?
Is that why you called me here?
I have been practicing karate
since I was five
and I have never been beaten
by anyone in a fight
You're the first one to hit me
In that sense, I acknowledge
your fighting spirit
But that's all
Don't ever talk of the brave tiger
or pretend to have
a noble samurai spirit!
Next time I see you
you'll be dead!
Have some fun here!
It's pachinko!
Get out of my lane
Pachinko!
Louder! Louder!
Go away!
Find the rationing tickets!
Find them! Check everywhere!
Pachinko, ah, I'm hungry
Hey, why so glum?
Why are you so happy?
The yakuzas came here a while ago
so I was really worried
But they just passed by
They seemed to be going
somewhere else
Where?
Over there,
near the railway that way
Where?
Where are the ration tickets?
Here! Come this way!
Are the ration tickets
more important than your life?
Baedal, Baedal! Wake up!
Baedal, Baedal!
Justice without power is empty but
power without justice is only
violence
Be strong to protect yourself
and others
Baedal!
Youko
Justice without power is empty
but power without justice
is only violence
Be strong to protect yourself
and others
Baedal!
Take care

What do you think of
Choi Baedal's recent actions?
What do you think of all
the martial art schools
being defeated by his karate?
People say Choi Baedal faces
discrimination because he's Korean
Martial arts are
They consist of courtesy
loyalty and promises
It is a philosophy, ideology
and all the principles
of human psychology
That Korean bastard dishonors
the Japanese martial arts
pretending to be Musashi!
Choi Baedal's karate has
none of these things
It is not a martial art
We should've killed
him earlier
Then what is his karate?
It is not karate
It's just fighting
Choi Baedal is just
a common thug
He will realize how trivial he is
when he sees his last moment
Oh, Baedal!
Look at them!

what's wrong with you?
You were very lucky
It was really dangerous

How about going into business
together?
I'll prepare a dojo for you
And we get
8 to 2

It's quite a good deal

Why, what's wrong?
Leave, please!
What's wrong with her?
Is she having her period now?
She has it everyday
No, I'm ok
Youko?
Are you out of your mind?
What will you do
if your patron find out?
He's my guest
Treat him well
Leave him before
it's too late
Ending it would be good for you

CHALLENGE - HAHURIDA SHRINE
RYOMA
Surprise
Why don't you sleep?
Have you ever thought of death?
Not really
I'm scared
When I take a bath before a fight
I think I shouldn't look dirty
even if I die in the fight
I don't want anyone to see
my dirty underwear
even if I get crippled
in the fight
So I wash
and wash again
I thought that it isn't bad
to die in a real fight
But now I'm scared of death
I don't want to die or
be crippled
and never see your face again
Youko!
A message for you
I'm sorry
I have to go now
I'm sorry
Don't go!
What would you do if there's
someone who hates to see you get
hurt worse than her own death?
I'm the one
who's really scared
I thought you were going to die
I was really scared
You're Korean
and you are a fighter
Both things are
too hard for me
However, I was trying to stop
being a geisha
I don't want anything!
I just want you to stay with me
and be healthy!
Don't get hurt
don't be sick
Like now
Promise me!
Promise me
that you'll
never fight again
Please!
Please!
You must be hungry
Wait a little

MEJIRO POLICE - TOKYO
He doesn't want to see you
Will you tell him that
I'll be waiting for him?
I knew there were some crazy
old men in the association
but I didn't expect Ryoma would
draw his sword on the bed-wetter
If you really want to conquer
the martial arts of Japan don't you
think you should confront me?
What do you think?
I won't fight!
I broke a promise with someone
I care about
and I even killed a man
because of my fear
That's your weak point
Listen to me
The ultimate truth in
all martial arts is victory!
Come out and
fight with me
Prove yourself
with a real fight!
If it's your duty
to prove yourself
mine is to protect
the martial arts of Japan
I'll be waiting
for you at Musashino
Come on out! Hey, didn't you hear?
You've been released!
Not guilty by self-defense
Of course we should
take revenge for Ryoma
and for the heads
of the schools
We must prove that
Baedal is not the best
that he's just trash
I will execute him in public!
It's a fight for death
Mom!
Who are you?
Ma'am! I'm Choi Baedal
I killed your husband
Murderer!
You came here
to kill my mother?
Ma'am Take this uniform
I'll never fight again
Give me a hoe and shovel
I'll help as much as I can
Get lost! I never want
to see your face again!
You want to fight
with me now?
What are you going to do?
You have no father
You've never been to the top
of the mountain, stupid?
I don't think he has
You can't go there alone
My father will take me there
Bastard
say something
The bastard with no father
What a poor thing
Miserable thing
You're dead next time
I want to go to the top
of the mountain
What?
Where are we going?
Hey, Baedal
Is he Ryoma's son?
FROM CHOI BEADAL
CHOI BAEDAL DISHONORS
RYOMA'S WIFE
They're saying all kinds
of silly things
because you're staying quiet
I don't fight anymore
Why do you keep
running away? Why?
You really don't know what
you have to do?
You really don't?
I've been reading
the newspapers
I'm sorry
No, it's okay
Newspapers can't tell
all the truth
People will see the truth
as time goes by
However
I hope you do something
for my son, Tomoya
What do you mean?
Be a good man for Tomoya
Be the strongest man in Japan
Then he will be able to grow up
a good man, without a father
I don't understand
Go out and fight them
Please, beat them!
For Tomoya
Ma'am!
I think you'd better leave
before he wakes up
Stop!
Better than I expected
You dreamed of too much
greenhorn!
You're just one more mountain
I have to climb
After you die
what shall I do with your body?
Any place under the sky
I am afraid of fighting
I am afraid of being beaten
and losing
But I am more afraid of surviving
as a cripple than dying in fight
However, I always try
to find a new enemy
Choi Baedal defeated hundreds
of martial arts experts from Japan
and around the world
He left behind mythical stories
of his prowess such as his
ability to break
a bull's horns with his bare hands
Choi Baedal was named one of the
greatest heroes by Japanese
teenagers
He established Kyokushin Karate
in the home to his unique form
of karate
Today, Kyokushin Karate boasts
over million students in countries
In April, he died in Japan
missing his mother country
This movie is in memoriam of him
A man can be poor
As long as he a goal and endeavor
fot it
He beautiful
