Set during the Korean War, North Korean and Chinese prisoners of war are sent to a camp on Geoje Island in South Korea.

Rho Ki-Soo ([[Do Kyung-Soo (D.O.)|Do Kyung-Soo]]) is a young North Korean soldier held at the Geoje POW Camp.

Meanwhile, Sergeant Jackson ([[Jared Grimes]]) is ordered by a superior officer into forming a tap dancing team from the POW camp. He holds an audition in the camp and selects Chinese soldier Xiaofang ([[Kim Min-Ho (1990)|Kim Min-Ho]]), South Korean Kang Byung-Sam ([[Oh Jung-Se]]) who was falsely accused of being a communist sympathizer and civilian Yang Pan-Rae ([[Park Hye-Soo]]) who wants to support her family.
