The only way out of this situation,

is to leave this country immediately.

Please wait!

- Nurse!

- Please just hold on.

This is a painkiller, right?

Yes, that's right.

Jae Hyeok.

I'll be right there.

Jae Hyeok, you woke up.

Are you alright? How are you

feeling?

What are you doing?

- Why are you like this?

- Where's my phone?

- What are you doing?

- Looking for my phone!

My work clothes. Where are

my work clothes?

Where are his work clothes?

His work clothes are in the

waste disposal room.

Jae Hyeok!

What's wrong with him?

Look, what did I say?

I told you, the sooner the better.

Shut up! What's the point in

talking about it now?

- What did you say?

- I said I can't. Stop talking.

Oppa!

How are you?

What are you doing?

Where are you now?

I'm on the highway.

But there's too much traffic,

so we're going slowly.

What about our family?

We're together.

Some of the other ladies and

men are here, too.

You can't stay there.

No matter how, you have to

get away.

As far as possible, understand?

As far as possible, understand?

What about you?

Where are you?

Did something happen to you?

Please don't worry about me!

I'll catch up with you.

Hello?

Hello?

Child, was that Jae Hyeok?

Yes.

What did he say? Where is he now?

He said he'll catch up to us.

That kid should be rushing

out of there!

What is he still doing there?

Have you been able to contact

So Jin's father?

Not yet.

What are they doing?

Our Min Jae must be tired.

Please put your mask back on.

If this continues, we'll be

here forever.

Look how fast the cars are

going on the other side.

Are you crazy? Do you want to

drive back again?

Aigoo, that's enough.

I'm not allowed to talk?

Everyone hold on tightly!

What?

Yeon Ju, what are you doing?

Just hold on!

Actions are being taken to cool

off Hanbyul reactor No. 1.

But the surrounding radiation

level is too high.

Firefighters and rescuers working

in the area were affected.

A lot of people are being

carried out.

Of course, repair work hasn't

been able to start yet.

More serious is the condition of

the reservoir, which cannot yet

be confirmed.

From the start of the incident

until now,

the government's responsibility

and countermeasures,

have been totally inadequate.

That bastard.

While the government remains silent,

the entire country is sinking into

turmoil.

Traffic in the major cities is now

seriously paralyzed.

Not only is traffic tying up the

streets, basic supplies are

running low.

Law and order are breaking down.

Train stations, bus terminals,

are full of foreigners and

citizens trying to go abroad.

Airports and shipping ports are

jammed.

The location of Hanbyul nuclear

power plant, including Wonsan

Enterprises,

production of automobiles, oil

and chemicals has been interupted.

There will be huge economic losses.

Stock market prices are falling

like a rock.

If this continues, the country

may not be able to recover.

We must declare a state of

emergency,

and impose martial law.

The fate of the country is at stake.

Should we just stand back

and watch?

Jae Hyeok, what's wrong with you?

I want to go and look for my family.

Kid, you can't go anywhere

right now!

The roads are blocked! Where

can you go?

I have to go anyway.

I'm responsible for my family!

Yeon Ju will take good care of them.

You need to take care of yourself!

I'm fine now. Get out of the way.

I said move!

Jae Hyeok!

Jae Hyeok!

Jae Hyeok!

Nurse! Nurse!

The secretary told me to pack

my luggage.

Is the situation really that bad?

What are you doing now?

How can you be like this?

There's absolutely nothing

I can do.

There's no way to stop it.

What do you want me to do?

Take Mi Suk and leave quickly.

Just follow Secretary Kim's

instructions.

Where is Secretary Kim now?

What?

After he gave you the secretary's

Line report,

he was replaced.

Didn't you even know?

Do you have any idea what's

going on right now?

Are you giving up before even

understanding the situation?

Mi Suk and I aren't going

anywhere.

We will wait for you.

Think about it carefully and

figure out what you're going to do.

You need to take this call.

Who is it?

The President.

I thought you would be the

best person.

Hurry.

This is nuclear power plant

manager, Pak Pyeong Seop.

This is Gang Seok Ho.

Please... go ahead.

Are you able to tell me the

truth about this situation?

Now... do you finally want to

know?

Where were you all this time?

Where were you and what did

you do?

Now, we must announce...

From now on, I'm in control here.

Declare a state of emergency.

Because of the complexity of

implementing an emergency order,

the scope of effectiveness will

be determined by this room.

Are we all agreed?

I agree.

- I agree.

- I agree.

- I agree.

Prime Minister.

It must go through Parliament...

Of course, I already asked the

chairman for assistance.

Right now, this policy is being

implemented in parliament.

I agree.

From now on, all information

that comes from the site

will be reported to me without

even one word missing.

Yes, I understand.

Also,

please immediately allow the

firefighters on site to use seawater.

Disable Hanbyul reactor No. 1.

Mr. President!

All nuclear power plants in

every region of South Korea

must cease all operations

for now.

No. They cannot stop operating.

There are many other electricity-

generating facilities.

They aren't being used now.

If it's not enough, we can

conserve.

If there is even one more

problem with a nuclear power

plant right now,

the entire country will lose hope.

It's fine! It's fine! It's fine!

We can use seawater now.

We can?

Shut down reactor No. 1.

What did you say?

Who said this?

Anyone who opposes me

will go to jail.

This is a direct order from the

president!

If you don't believe me, then

confirm it with your bullshit

headquarters!

Captain.

You heard, right?

Hurry and connect to seawater.

Yes.

Let's go! Let's go!

At once! At once!

What? Damn it!

First entry personnel have

arrived and are on standby.

First entry personnel have

arrived and are on standby.

Go in as soon as they're ready.

I understand.

Captain, external hoses have

been connected to the internal

system.

Very good.

Let's flood it inside.

I understand.

Radiation values are rapidly

declining.

They should be able to start

emergency repairs soon.

They should be able to start

emergency repairs soon.

At present, the safety of nuclear

reactors can be maintained.

Carry on as we are now.

Now we must patch the

storage tank.

First, we must understand the

conditions on site.

Please help connect me to

the site operations.

=Manager, we need to know

the status of the storage tank.=

Is something wrong with the

water storage tank?

=I guess you don't know.=

=The storage tank has

developed a crack.=

=Because the cooling water is

being lost, the cooling rate is

decreasing.=

What?
