Consisting of four acts and six scenes, this play was performed by the North Korean National Theater Company in 1959. It depicts the will of the anti-Japanese revolutionary fighters who do not succumb to adversity. It was also adapted into a film and received favorable reviews.

1959년 북한국립연극단에서 상연된 연극으로 4막6장으로 구성되어 있다. 역경에도 굴복하지 않는 항일혁명투사의 투쟁의지를 그린 것으로 영화로도 만들어져 호평을 받았다.
