Train to Busan
Train to Busan (Korean: 부산행; RR: Busanhaeng; MR: Pusanhaeng; lit. 'Voyage To Busan') is a 2016 South Korean action horror film directed by Yeon Sang-ho and written by Park Joo-suk. It stars Gong Yoo, Jung Yu-mi, Ma Dong-seok, Kim Su-an, Choi Woo-shik, Ahn So-hee, and Kim Eui-sung. The film takes place primarily on a KTX from Seoul to Busan as a zombie apocalypse suddenly breaks out and threatens the safety of the passengers.
A co-production between Next Entertainment World and RedPeter Film, Train to Busan premiered in the Midnight Screenings section of the 2016 Cannes Film Festival on May 13. It was released by Next Entertainment World on July 20 in South Korea; by August 7, it became the first Korean film of the year to break the audience record of over 10 million theatergoers. It received positive reviews and was a commercial success, grossing $98.5 million on a budget of $8.5 million.
The film spawned the Train to Busan series, and was followed by the animated prequel Seoul Station (2016) and the standalone sequel Peninsula (2020).
A deer is hit by a truck and reanimates after the truck leaves. Seok-woo, a cynical workaholic and divorced father in Seoul, messes up a birthday present for his estranged daughter Su-an, and misses out on her recital of the Hawaiian folk song "Aloha ʻOe". He agrees with Su-an to take her to see her mother, Na-young, in Busan.
The next day, they board the KTX 101 for Busan at Seoul Station, along with blue-collar worker Sang-hwa and his pregnant wife Seong-kyeong, high-ranking executive Yon-suk, a high school baseball team including player Yong-guk and his cheerleader girlfriend Jin-hee, elderly sisters In-gil and Jong-gil, and a traumatized homeless man. Just before departure, a scraped up woman boards the train unnoticed at the last minute. News reports reveal that an outbreak is occurring across the country, and the scraped up lady then turns into a zombie. She bites and infects a train attendant, sparking a rapid outbreak on the train.
The survivors flee to other carriages and secure the doors, trapping the horde in the process. The train passes through Cheonan station, and continues onto Daejeon Station, where a group of soldiers were deployed to keep the infection at bay. Seok-woo is notified that his company sent an extraction team to pick him and Su-an up. After stopping at Daejeon, the passengers disembark from the train, but find that the deployed soldiers and those from Seok-woo's company had also fallen to the horde. The passengers flee back to the train, becoming separated into different carriages in the commotion.
The conductor cancels all future stops except for Busan, where the army has established a quarantine zone. Seok-woo, Sang-hwa, and Yong-guk arm up, sneak and fight through the zombie horde to reunite with Su-an, Seong-kyeong, In-gil, and the homeless man in another carriage. The remaining passengers, fearing that the survivors are infected, refuse to let them into their carriage and block the door. Seok-woo and the others start to try to get into the safe carriage, however, Sang-hwa is bitten during the process. He tells Seok-woo to look after Seong-kyeong, name their daughter Yoon Su-yun, and sacrifices himself to buy the others time to force open the door, but In-gil is left behind in the process.
Yon-suk, train attendant Ki-chul, and the other passengers demand that the new passengers leave their train compartment and isolate themselves in the front vestibule. Jong-gil, disgusted at everyone else's selfishness and paranoia, opens the door to let the zombies in and kill everyone else left onboard. Yon-suk and Ki-chul manages to escape by hiding in a bathroom. Seok-woo learns from a phone call that his company was indirectly responsible for the outbreak. A blocked track at Dongdaegu Station forces the train to stop, and the driver disembarks to search for another train. Yon-suk escapes after pushing Ki-chul into the zombies.
