The film revolves around an inexperienced firefighter who begins to harbour resentment towards a colleague after he fails to follow orders during an emergency. The cast includes Joo Won, Kwak Do-Won, Yoo Jae-Myung, Lee Yoo-Young, Kim Min-Jae, and Oh Dae-Hwan.
Synopsis: Newcomer Cheol-woong (Joo Won) is assigned to the Rescue Unit of the Fire Station in Seoul. Soon he is sent on his first mission with Jin-seop (Kwak Do-Won), a veteran fireman with a glorious title; the man who saved the highest number of people in a fire. While overwhelmed by fierce fire and pouring smoke, Cheol-woong witnesses Jin-seop searching for occupants contrary to the chief’s withdrawal order. Just before the fire gobbles up the building, Jin-seop manages to escape with a girl in his arms, but a colleague loses their life. Cheol-woong’s fear becomes anger against Jin-seop, and he blames him for his colleague’s death. When their conflict is still at its peak, they’re called to another fire scene which changes their fate for good.
‘Firefighters’ opens across South Korea on December 4, 2024.
