‘PENINSULA - YEON Sang-ho’

Four years after the zombie outbreak, South Korea is still overrun by zombies and quarantined from the rest of the world. Jung-seok (GANG Dong-won) and Min-Jung (LEE Jung-hyun) are given the mission to pick up an abandoned truck in the middle of Seoul within a time limit, in order to escape the peninsula forever. But in addition to the hordes of zombies, they also come face to face with a mysterious military group, Unit 631, who lures them into an ambush. Their violent struggle for survival begins!
