In order to get themselves and Jung-hyun to safety, everyone heads to the roof, but much to their horror, they discover that the door to the roof is locked. With everyone else occupied, Yong-nam proceeds to shatter a window and leap across to the adjact building. Only equipped with a makeshift harness, Yong-nam manages to scale the Cloud Gard and reach the top of the roof, where he ops the door for his family. Once everyone is assembled on the roof, they manage to hail a passing rescue helicopter with crude SOS signals. However, Yong-nam and Eui-joo are prevted from boarding the helicopter, as their inclusion would exceed the weight limit on the helicopter gondola. Due to the rising gas, they are th forced to wrap themselves up in improvisational safety gear and leave the Cloud Gard to seek higher ground.
Once the two manage to find a suitable building, they proceed to signal to another passing helicopter. However, upon seeing a group of studts trapped in a building opposite them, they redirect the helicopter to the studts and away from themselves. Th a gas station near by the truck explodes sding a wave of the toxic gas, forcing them to leave the building before they could also be rescued.

After failing to be rescued twice, Yong-nam and Eui-joo realise that the only way to escape the rising gas is to head towards the tower crane, the highest point in the vicinity. At the same time, they are discovered by a drone, which they use to provide directions towards the tower crane.
After running and climbing across numerous buildings, the drone finally loses power, leaving Yong-nam and Eui-joo at a dead d, as they realise that none of the surrounding buildings are close ough to get to the tower crane. Just as they begin to despair, multiple drones begin to converge towards their location, and Yong-nam is able to suspd a rope across the buildings by utilising one of them. Yong-nam and Eui-joo th attempt to swing across, but their combined weight proves too much for the drone, and the two fall, seemingly to their deaths. However, the two manage to survive the fall and reach the tower crane, from where they are evtually extracted from by a rescue helicopter.
Once on safe ground, Yong-nam tearfully reunites with the rest of his family. As Yong-nam and Eui-joo face one another to say goodbye, they agree to see each other again sometime. As they stand smiling, rainfall starts to descd, dissipating the last of the white gas from the city.

In contrast, Carlos Aguilar of the Los Angeles Times was more mixed in his review, pointing towards a lack of originality of the overall story, labelling it a trite commodity. He commted that despite the amusing hurdles, Exit was ultimately a simplistically digestible and ultimately predictable big-budget outing with a slight edge.Ethan's been a frequent flier for as long as he can remember, from studying abroad in Paris to moving to Shanghai after graduating college, where he served as TPG's eyes and ears for all things travel in the Asia-Pacific region. If you asked him where he wants to travel next he'd quote Anthony Bourdain and tell you anytime I'm eating spicy noodles in a bowl, I'm happy.

Review: Korean Air 777 Business Class (icn Hkg)
The Korean Air nonstop flight from Atlanta to Seoul is still operating during the pandemic, but on a reduced schedule, using smaller Boeing 777s rather than the 747-8 we reviewed. In the U.S., Korean Air also still serves Chicago, Los Angeles, New York JFK and San Francisco as of April 14, all with a reduced schedule.

Us Dismisses South Korea's Launch Of World First 5g Network As 'stunt'
While the 747, affectionately referred to as the Queen of the Skies, is perhaps the single most iconic passenger jet in history, it's getting harder to find one of these double-decker jumbo jets in the US.
The version of the storied Jumbo Jet in production these days is the 747-8, featuring updated technology and more fuel-efficient engines, plus a lengthened fuselage hump. But while the cargo version, the 747-8F, has done very well, the 747-8i passenger variant has not. There are only three airlines operating it: Lufthansa, Air China and Korean Air.
