The official synopsis for 1 Second webtoon is:
Every second counts when you’re a first responder. But what if you could see a glimpse into the future? Hosu is a firefighter with the supernatural ability to do just that. There’s just one catch. It only works when he feels extreme stress under pressure. Will knowing what will happen ahead of time help Hosu extinguish fires before they completely destroy homes and lives? And will he learn to wield his ability when he needs it most?
