Box-office hit Train to Busan is a story that mostly takes place in a train headed to Busan. A zombie apocalypse suddenly breaks out in South Korea and threatens the safety of the passengers.

Last July 2020, the movie's sequel, Peninsula, was shown in cinemas and was a box-office success, too.

Peninsula takes place four years after Train to Busan. It centers around a group of people who were left behind to survive in a zombie apocalypse.

The film stars Kang Dong-won, Lee Jung-hyun, Kwon Hae-hyo, Kim Min-jae, Goo Kyo-hwan, Kim Do-yoon, Lee Re, and Lee Ye-won.
