A negotiation nightmare unfolds live on the air

Once the face of the prime time TV program Showtime 7, Shinnosuke Orimoto (Hiroshi Abe) was a national news anchor until mysteriously being forced to step down from his position. Now relegated to a late-night radio gig, the washed-up presenter receives an ominous call from a stranger warning of an imminent bomb threat. Initially dismissing the call as a hoax, Orimoto hangs up… only to witness a deadly blast at a nearby power plant minutes later. As havoc unfolds, Orimoto jumps at the chance to relive his glory days as a newscaster, and steps into the role of negotiator live on the air. But when the incident spirals out of control, Orimoto must tread carefully—or face explosive consequences. With innocent lives on the line, will Orimoto succeed in reclaiming the spotlight, or will his pride be his downfall? 

Every second matters in this high-stakes action thriller, based on the South Korean box office hit The Terror Live. Featuring a stellar performance by veteran actor Hiroshi Abe, this race against the clock is a wild ride that will have audiences gripped from start to finish.
