Peninsula Movie Storyline. It’s been four long years since the catastrophic events of Busanhaeng (2016), and a virulent zombie outbreak sweeps South Korea from end to end. Now, on the carcass of the levelled city of Incheon, the guilt-ridden former Marine Captain, Jung-seok, embarks on a suicide mission to locate a truck carrying bags crammed with $20 million in cash, along with a trio of equally reckless fortune seekers.
But, in the endless urban wasteland of debris and death, multitudes of ravenous living-dead are on the prowl for human flesh, and as if that weren’t enough, the dangerous mercenaries of villainous Sergeant Hwang’s Unit 631 roam the dark mega-city. Can the condemned quartet of invaders escape from the quarantined Korean peninsula and live to tell the tale?
Peninsula (Korean: 반도, marketed in the United States as Train to Busan Presents: Peninsula) is a 2020 South Korean action horror film directed by Yeon Sang-ho. It is a standalone sequel to the 2016 film Train to Busan and follows a soldier who is sent along with his team to retrieve a truck full of money from the wastelands of the Korean peninsula now inhabited by zombies, rogue militia and a nice family.
Peninsula was selected to be shown at the 2020 Cannes Film Festival, which was cancelled due to the COVID-19 pandemic. The film was released in South Korea on 15 July 2020. It received mixed reviews from critics and has grossed $35 million worldwide.
