Termed as the biggest Korean disaster blockbuster ever, Ashfall brings to the silver screen the eruptions of Baekdu Mountain — not one, not two, but potentially four eruptions in total! Starring Ha Jung-woo as Cho In-chang, captain of the explosive ordinance disposal (EOD) unit (basically people who defuse bombs), he is tasked by South Korea on a mission to prevent the last and most destructive volcanic eruption from happening. However, in order to achieve this, he has to cooperate with the deceitful North Korean elite agent Ri Jun-pyong, portrayed by Lee Byung-hun.
