As martial law continues, the whole Gwanju is experiencing violence in the hands of the military.

Since several civilians and innocent people were caught up in the chaos, Kim Myung Hee (Go Min Si) couldn't help but get worried over his little brother Kim Myung Soo (Jo Yi Hyun), who was at the training camp.

Little did she know that Myung Soo, together with Hwang Hee Tae's (Lee Do Hyun) younger brother Hwang Jung Tae (Choi Seung Hoon), sneaked out to the camp to go to Gwanju.

Lee Soo Chan's Last Warning

"Youth of May" episode 10 also showed the current state of Lee Soo Chan (Lee Sang Yi). 

To recall, he was arrested and beaten by the soldiers after defending a female student. He was taken in Sangmudae alongside fellow detainees who were innocent civilians.

Fortunately, he was released through their connection with the security defense head, Hwang Gi Nam (Oh Man Suk), who is also Hee Tae's father.

However, as he was about to get released, he urged Hwang Gi Nam to also free other captives, especially the elderly, kids, and wounded.

Obviously, this made Gi Nam furious and threatened him that this would be the last time he would save him and his family.

Kim Myung Hee Attempts to Save Kim Myung Soo and Hwang Jung Tae

While at the Gwangju hospital, Lee Jin Ah's father went to visit his daughter, who Hee Tae and Myung Hee saved.

However, he revealed to her that he saw his little brother, who was caught up in the middle of a riot between the protesters and soldiers.

Unfortunately, he can't go after Myung Soo and save him as the bullets are dodging left and right.

This left Kim Myung Hee in shock but opted to go after the area to find his brother.

"Youth of May" episode 10 also illustrates the massive disturbance in the whole Gwangju area.

As the medical team alongside Myung Hee and Hee Tae tried to save wounded civilians, the military openly fired at them. This has prompted them to leave the area.

However, as their team was about to leave, she heard a child crying in the alley and immediately ran after the kid.

He was followed by the soldier, who happens to be Hee Tae's friend, Kim Kyung Soo.

Despite being on the military side, he was hesitant to hurt Myung Hee. Interestingly, he was recognized by Hee Tae and mentioned that Seok-Cheol is alive and is in Gwangju.

As the team returned to the hospital together with the wounded civilians, Myung Hee was advised that his brother is safe and sound in the training camp.

"Youth of May" episode 10 ended with a shocking surprise on Myung Hee and Hee Tae.

As he was about to go to a nearby hospital to get some blood, he and another Gwangju doctor were rammed by a military car.
