Firefighters showed off their fit and ready bodies in the sixth annual charity "muscle contest," organized by the Seoul Metropolitan Fire and Disaster Headquarters Thursday.

Twenty four firefighters from Seoul fire departments participated in the event, which supports child patients and other various charitable causes.

The authority plans to sell 2018 calendars, which will include pictures of the winners, to help treat children with burns.
