Scheduled to air on the 4th, The First Responders Season 2 presents an upgraded collaboration between firefighters, police officers, and 119 rescue teams as they confront unprecedented and challenging cases.
Above all, The First Responders Season 2 promises a significantly larger scale and an evolved world than Season 1. Notably, the shocking ending of Season 1 left viewers in awe as Jin Ho Gae (played by Kim Rae Won) and Bong Do Jin (played by Son Ho Jun) found themselves trapped in a parking tower engulfed in flames.

In line with that, The First Responders Season 2 teases viewers with 'hint cuts' of the fierce battle against the 'serial arsonist' already foreshadowed in the Season 1 ending.

The released scene portrays the parking tower, once the location of Jin Ho Gae and Bong Do Jin, now turned into an inferno with evidence pointing to a gruesome crime. The prime arson suspect is discovered burned to death, and even the CCTV evidence is destroyed in the fire, making it difficult to find clues. This hints at the birth of a massive criminal organization targeting firefighters and police, indicating a complex case far beyond a simple arson investigation.

Furthermore, the first episode of Season 2 raises curiosity about Jin Ho Gae and Bong Do Jin's whereabouts. In particular, Jin Ho Gae appears on the verge of unconsciousness with flames surrounding him in the parking tower, adding to the suspense.In another intriguing moment, Bong Do Jin is seen wearing a solemn expression as he oversees an autopsy, deepening the sense of unease. The question arises whether Jin Ho Gae, who has become the serial arsonist's first target, is facing a life-threatening situation or why Bong Do Jin, who was previously offered to work for National Forensic Service by Prosecutor Yoon Hong (played by Son Ji Yoon) in Season 1, now personally heads to National Forensic Service. These moments heighten viewers' curiosity.

Moreover, the production team meticulously crafted the 'signature scene of an intense incident' to be unveiled in the first episode of Season 2. The actors went through multiple rehearsals to create a situation that appeared highly dangerous and urgent. At the same time, the post-production work involved various reactions to make the drama rich and immersive. The production team poured even more passion into dealing with absolute fire pits.
The production team commented, "The first episode to be aired on the 4th will be a chapter announcing the full-scale activity of the most dangerous criminal who strikes both firefighters and police officers," and urged viewers to look forward to The First Responders Season 2 with its firm changes in scale and intense incidents that will captivate viewers' attention and ears from the start."
Meanwhile, The First Responders Season 2 will air on Fridays at 10 PM as the follow-up to Revenant.
