During the Korean War, Sergeant Jackson (Jared Grimes), a former dancer, is tasked with creating a Christmas dance production at the Geoje Island prison camp to improve the U.S. Army's image. He assembles an unlikely troupe of performers, including Xiao Pang (Kim Min Ho), a shy Chinese soldier with hidden dance skills; Kang Byung Sam (Oh Jung Se), a falsely accused South Korean prisoner seeking his wife; Yang Pan Rae (Park Hye Soo), a civilian dancer; and Ro Ki Soo (D.O.), a North Korean soldier with a passion for dance. Despite the harsh realities of war, this diverse group of prisoners bonds through their shared love of dance, facing numerous challenges and testing their loyalties. Their journey becomes a testament to the power of art and human connection in the midst of conflict. This is a 2018 South Korean musical drama film directed by Kang Hyeong Cheol.
