  • "Despite being a box office bomb, we must not forget about the technical achievements of <Sector 7>", said JANG Hoon, director of <The Front Line>, giving his reason for selecting <Sector 7> as his best film of 2011. This means that the technical aspect of <Sector 7> at least was worthy of praise. KIM Ji-hoon, who helmed <Sector 7>, goes for tower infernal motive with <The Tower>. A terrible fire breaks out in a high-rise building in Seoul on Christmas Eve. Firefighter, played by SUL, and the building’s facilities manager, played by KIM Sang-kyung, tries their best to bring the fire under control but due its intensity, chaos reigns inside the burning building. A restaurant manager, played by SON, and other occupants all try to survive through this disaster. In time, all of them realize that they need each other in order to survive. It's set to be one of the summer blockbusters of 2012.
