Interesting facts

Libera Me is a 2000 South Korean action disaster film directed by Yang Yun-ho, starring Choi Min-soo and Cha Seung-won. It follows a mentally-unbalanced arsonist and the firefighters who struggle to stop him. The film was theatrically released on November 11, 2000.

Production

The film was shot in Busan, with the support of the local government and fire department. Instead of using miniatures, it was filmed in real buildings throughout Busan using a special synthetic oil that allowed the crew to use actual fire. For a key scene involving a gas station, a life-sized set was constructed and detonated at a cost of US$250,000.
