🧟 Story (Unofficial Summary)
Set five years after the chaotic events of Peninsula (2020), the Korean Peninsula is now a shattered wasteland ruled by survivor clans, rogue militias, and ever-mutating zombie hordes. A faint radio signal from Busan, long believed to be fully overrun, reveals that a secure underground facility may still exist—offering hope of a cure and salvation.
A new group of survivors—led by Ji-Won, a former special ops soldier—and a hardened teenage girl born in the post-outbreak era, Min-ha, embark on a last-hope mission to infiltrate Busan and uncover the truth.
But inside the city, what awaits isn’t just zombies… it’s a dark secret that could change everything humanity knows about the outbreak.
