A radio host monopolises the live broadcast of a terrorist attack following a bridge explosion. Will he live to finish the tale?
Yoon Young-hwa (Ha Jung-woo) was once a top news anchor, but he gets demoted due to an unsavoury incident. Pulled from primetime TV news and recently divorced, he is now the jaded and bitter host of a current affairs radio program. One day during his morning show, Yoon receives a peculiar phone call threatening to blow up a major bridge that crosses the Han River. At first, Yoon takes it as a prank call and tells the terrorist to proceed. He watches in shock as the caller follows through on the threat and blows the bridge. Realising this could be a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity to make his comeback, Yoon strikes a dangerous deal with the terrorist to exclusively broadcast their conversations live, as the whole nation watches. With several people remaining on the bridge as hostages, the terrorist threatens a second explosion. He also reveals to Yoon alone that he put a bomb in the anchor’s earphone, and that if the president doesn’t appear, the bomb will explode in his ear, live on air.
