The Japanese security chief, suspicious of unrest, tricks her colleagues and uncovers Gwan-sun's role as the leader, and tortures her severely. After this, Gwan-sun pretends to obey the Japanese but secretly prepares another independence movement. This movement spreads beyond the prison and into the streets. Gwan-sun is once again subjected to merciless torture. She dies two days before her release.
