Bond endures 14 months of torture in a North Korean prison and never reveals any secrets. When he is finally freed, he just looks so happy when he sees Western operatives, but then Falco looks at him with disgust and comments on Bond thinking that the latter is a hero. Then the agents tranquilize him. He wakes up in a hospital room and is shocked to see that it doubles as a cell. He then learns from M that MI6 never even attempted to rescue him in 14 months, and the only reason why they did now is that they thought he had been spilling secrets, and now his 00 status is revoked and he'll be imprisoned as a traitor. The look on Bond's face says it all.
Bond's shocked reaction to the reveal of Miranda Frost's betrayal. But more tearful is his deadpan response toward Graves'/Moon's gloating over how he used Miranda's sex.
M's first conversation with Bond after his liberation, wherein it becomes clear the North Korea mission was a bridge too far.
M: If I had my way, you'd still be in North Korea. Your freedom came at too high a price.
Bond is unnerved by the sight of Miranda Frost's corpse, whom he had tried to murder earlier on because she was The Mole at MI6. Bond isn't the one who is responsible for her death since she was already killed by Jinx, yet his facial expression leaves no doubt that he finds it unsettling even though he wanted Miranda dead for betraying him. Both GoldenEye ("...if all those vodka martinis ever silence the screams of all the men you've killed") and The World Is Not Enough ("Cold-blooded murder is a filthy business. I usually hate killing an unarmed man") have touched upon Pierce Brosnan's Bond's disdain for what his job entails, so seeing him take a moment to contemplate the horror that his line of work brings to a traitor who had ruined a part of his life instead of rejoicing in her demise is quite profound.
General Moon's relationship with his son is also quite tragic, as he had brought him up to bridge the gap between the Koreas only to discover his treachery in pursuing his own private war against the South, with the aid of his Western contacts. In spite of this, he takes Bond's termination of his son very personally, and is rocked to discover that not only did his son survive his plunge, but is now completely unrecognizable in his guise as Gustav Graves. The reunion is hardly a happy one, to say the least:
General Moon: My son......What have you done to yourself?
Graves then forces his father to watch as he unleashes Icarus upon the DMZ, a move that Moon is certain will trigger a destructive war that will ruin North Korea. After having spent the past year pining over his son's betrayal and supposed death, Moon takes up arms against his own son. His final words to his son show no hint of mourning, only Tranquil Fury.
General Moon's death at the hands of his son. Bond himself, who had no cause to feel pity for the man who allowed him to be tortured for fourteen long months, is so infuriated by this scene that he wastes no time going in to finish off the traitorous former colonel.
