Summary

Two conscripted firefighters confront dangerous rescue work, trauma, and the weight of lives they cannot always save, revealing the human cost behind frontline duty.

Origin & Development

Premiered in 2023, produced by Neo Production. Written by Park Min-jae, who served as an auxiliary firefighter and drew on firsthand experiences to develop the script. The musical is a re-creation of the 2022 regional co-production Eyes โ€“ The Me That Sees You, expanded into a full-scale theatrical work centered on occupational trauma, friendship, and mental health within firefighting culture.

Partial Synopsis

Former auxiliary firefighter Ahn Jung-won now works in equipment storage at his local fire station, quietly sorting supplies while carrying unspoken memories of the past. When his former junior from military service, Kang Yi-jun, is assigned to the same station as a full firefighter, the two confront unresolved events from their years of duty. As emergency calls, past accidents, and survivor guilt resurface, the musical moves between past and present, exploring wounds that never fully healed. The narrative emphasizes the quiet persistence of those who continue to serve despite invisible scars.
