MOM
HYUN-SU, ARE YOU SURE YOU AREN'T COMING?
It'll be a good change of scenery.
You haven't been out of your room in so long.
MOM
WE'RE LEAVING
RICE IS IN THE FREEZER.
MAKE SURE YOU EAT, OKAY?
Load ammunition.
How long is Hyun-su going to behave like that?
Why didn't you do anything to make sure he never got this way?
Dad. It's not Mom's fault. Why are you yelling at her?
Don't give me attitude.
This family's falling apart.
You're ridiculous. Since when do you care?
I don't know why I had any children.
They're never grateful for anything.
Stop. Both of you.
This is a family trip.
Don't be like that.
Sure.
It's all my fault.
Dad.
Dad!
Is that Hyun-su?
Where the hell have you been?
Don't be like that.
The poor boy must be devastated.
He looks like a mess.
Hyun-su.
I really didn't want to come outside.
But I couldn't believe it.
Only 30 million won.
You're basically telling me to die.
How am I supposed to get by with this?
How can I live on this for the rest of my life?
What do you want me to do?
-Drag him out.
-Take him.
How can I live?
-What do you want me to do?
-Take him out.
Hurry.
Jisu: I can't believe he just left him to die like this. Why is he so cold?

Eun-yu:Hey, I'm on my way. The elevator isn't working, so I'll be late. No, the elevator is out of order. I'm not lying. I can't hear anything. Hello? Oh, no! Just go. I'm resting.
It's you.
Yi-kyung:Thanks for your help. Su-ung.
Su-ung:I just did what was the right thing to do, There's no service, is there?
Yi-kyung:I'm checking his family's phone number. I should let them know.
Su-ung:What are you doing?
Yi-kyung:They can't see him in person. This is the least we can do.
It'd be better if his family didn't see him like this.
I disagree. They have to know.
Jisu:Damn it, useless motion sensor.
Man:How is it my fault? It's not the problem…Damn it. It's all because of this shitty world.
Jisu:Excuse me.
That's how the world is. Manager han.
Jisu:Hey.
Manager Han that son of a bitch, How dare you frame me. Trying to get ride of me, I wanna kill them all.
Manager Han. Manager Han, that son of a bitch. I swear-
Jisu:Oh shit. Hey.
Jae-heon: Ji-su. Stay away, You can't be sure it's dead yet. Watch out!
Jinok:My daughter isn't back yet. What are you doing? You can't block this. If anything happens to Min-ju, It's all your fault!
-Please calm down.
-Block it.
Please wait. I said, wait. She's here. I'll go get her quickly and come back. Open it. Please?
I can't do that.
And who are you? Do you know who I am?
I have to keep this place safe.
Please open it. Stop.
It's working.
What's going on? Is it an epidemic?

I am extremely shocked and nervous right now.

Let's hope so.
Let's all go home. What are we doing sitting here?
Won't the rescue squad come?
Do you not see this? We're all screwed.
Our country won't go down like this. Right, Military Man?
Yes. You're right. If you stay calm and wait--
I can wait at home!
There must be an emergency shelter nearby.
We don't know where it is.
If we drive--
The underground parking lot is blocked, too. We have to go up!
Does anyone live on the seventh floor?
Me.
Okay
What if.. Hey, we can go up together.
Hold on a sec, If you're going up, we should all go up together. Don't you think ?
Let us all go.
-All right.
-No.
Wait. We need to block the entrance first. Let's wait and we can see--
You can block, or wait. Do whatever you want. Alright? You punks!
You punks! Where do you think you're running away to? You selfish cowards!
You're just worried about your shop.
I can't believe you just said that. Byeong-il. Come here now. Do you all want to get killed or what? Come here. Now!
He's right. If we open the entrance, we'll all be dead.
Move aside. Now.
You don't know what's out there. I won't move!
-What's that noise?
What are you looking at?
Hey....Is that a bite mark?
Stop right there! Byeong-il. Check him. Go and check him.
Byeong-il:What? Me? It's a bite. He's been bit!
He's been bitten?
Seak-hyeon:I got him! You saw me, right? Look at the bite mark on his shoulder. I got him. Bastard. Zombie bastard.
Man:Don't get too close.
8 HOURS LATER
It's not a disease. It's a curse.
CRUCRU
IT'S NOT A DISEASE. IT'S A CURSE.
They complained of frequent nosebleeds …
and auditory hallucinations.
The cause could not be determined.
They weren't from here originally.
They came here because they showed symptoms.
They turned into miserable, desperate beings.
Every prediction was wrong.
It suddenly begins one day
..and it never stops.
I was consumed by it, too.
Humans will not be able to overcome this.
If you have symptoms, kill yourself before it's too late
....because being alive will harm others.
But if you decide to live to the end,
there's something you must know. That is…
THERE IS NO INTERNET CONNECTION
REFRESH
Shit. Nothing's working.
Will it still be there?
RAMYEON
There's probably no one out there, right?
We have to kill him.
Kill him?
Well. Yes, of course.
You think you can you do it?
Me?
You're the leader aren't you?
-Yes of course.
-Well.
Seung-wan:He's still human, though.
Come on. Seung-wan, have you ever seen a movie? You die if you let the If you let the one who got bit live. IIt's only s self-defense. It's okay. Don't you think so?
Seak-hyeon:Won't he die of starvation if we just leave him?
Seung-wan:What if he gets hungry and starts eating everyone? -We should do something.
-"We should do something." Knock it off. Seok-hyeon, go for it.
Jisu:Jae-heon, there's someone in there.
Jae-heon:Person or monster?
Jisu:It's a person. They're telling us the pass code.
Two, one, three, two…
I'm human. Thank you so much. I thought I was going to die.
-What happened to you?
-A burglar came in.
How long have you been like this?
It's been a few days. Did something happen outside? I heard strange noises.
You should see for yourself.
Hold on. I thought I better carry something, too, you know.
We'll live together in one place until help arrives. It's much saver together.
Seung-wan:Where will all gonna go?
Eun-hyuk:The daycare center. It's relatively safe because it's far from the entrance. It will also be better to sleep there than here.
Ms. Cha: I won't allow it. -No.
-Who are you to say no?
She's the daycare directer.
You scumbags. Pieces of shit! You ignored me when I begged. You're shameless!
Your daughter probably needs someone's help, too.
That's why I'm saying I'll go. Let me help. I might lose my daughter but you can do whatever you want after I leave.
Eun-Hyuk:What about you? Are you okay with dying? Do you have a plan? There's no internet or phone service. How can you be sure where she is?
-Still--
First, you have to stay alive. Otherwise you won't be able to find or see your daughter.
Su-ung:Please... calm down and help us. I promise I will help you later too.
Do whatever you want.
This door is open. I don't think you should see this.
NOW IT'S YOURS
I wonder if he kill himself because this terrible new world?
No, he's been dead for over a week.
How do you know that?
Seems that way, doesn't it?
AUGUST 25, TUESDAY
SUICIDE
I might as well kill myself now. At least then.I ...I can die human being.
Su-yeong:Dad, don't go. It's too dangerous.
Don't cry, Su-yeong. You're in charge now, so take good care of Yeong-su while I'm away. All right?
Su-yeong:Dad.
-Don't cry, Su-yeong. Monsters might come if they hear us. You know I was in the special forces, right? I'll come back with food. Yeong-su, listen to your sister, okay?
Get out of there. Come on. Watch out!
Su-yeong:Dad!
Yeong-su:Dad!
Kids:Dad!
Su-yeong:Go away! Go away! Help us! Please someone help us!
THEY MIGHT COME IF THEY HEAR ANYTHING. THOSE THINGS DON'T DIE.

EMERGENCY
COME WHEN YOUR MIND IS MADE UP
I think I probably go back to my apartment.
I think it's better if you come with us.
No. I really don't want to burden you anymore. I'll find my own way to survive.
-Still…
Jisu:Okay. Take care of yourself. Everyone has their own way of living.
Seung-wan:I'll be fine. Of course, I'll be fine.
Hey. Salute! Didn't we met in the elevator the other day?
Su-ung:Oh. Right. I'm Lee Su-ung.
Hye-in:You live in Room 1305. And you're down in Room 304. I live in Room 1009. I'm Son Hye-in.
Nice to meet you.
Ryu:Hey. I'm Ryu Jae-hwan. Got any sunscreen?
What?
-I'll look for it.
-Okay.
You don't need sunscreen in here. Anyway, I'm No Byeong-il. We're neighbors, but we've never. Wait a minute. I don't recognize you.
Yesah.
Hye-in:She doesn't really talk that much.
Oh, gotcha. You seem to know everything, ma'am.
Don't call me, "ma'am." 'm much younger than you.
What? What makes you so sure?
Where is that Bastard?
-Oh my God.
Where is he?
-Who?
-Seok-hyeon, who are you looking for?
-That dirty thug! Look what he did to me! Son of a bitch.
Eun-yu:What? Go your way. I'll go mine. How do you feel? Do you feel like biting into people and tearing them apart Which floor are you going to? It's okay. Between us. We killed together.
Sang-wook:Shut up or leave
Eun-yu:I don't want to. Embarrassing if I turn into one of those things.
Sang-wook:I'll kill you if you turn.
Eun-yu:Likewise. I think this works for you.
Dusik:My name is Han Du-sik. You?
Hyun-su:Cha Hyun-su.
Dusik:You're a little shy huh?
How can I save the kids?
Well it's all on you. Should I? I used to be a legend in Cheonggyecheon.
You heard? They can build any tank as long as you have a blueprint. Whatthat means I can transform your stick nto something more useful. Hand me that thing,
What
Bring that over here. Your spear.

Honey.
You didn't even notice I was gone. Bring the eggs. Now! Stupid cow.
SUPERMARKET
Bite him. Bite him hard.
All done. Hey.
CERTIFICATE OF MERIT
FIRST LIEUTENANT HAN DU-SIK
They still move around with their heads chopped off. A kitchen knife can;t do the job. But this will do it.
You think I can I kill them with that thing?
No, you can't.
How do you know that?
I just know it. Avoid them at all costs. If you come across one, run as fast as you can. No. Don't even let them see you.
Then why don't you give one of your bigger weapons?
No. It's no good. This can only fire a few shots at a time. I already fired one. I might need another one. And the last bolt is reverse for me only, so I don't die old.
Man, everything's melting already. They'll all go to waste. Are you blind? Don't you see everything's gone bad?
The power went out. What can I do?
Bitch, I'll show-
Can you be in the management office for a bit? I need to check the electrical room. I saw some places with lights on outside still. A blackout would affect the whole district.
I think it's just this building.
Well I'll confirm that when I go down there. That's all the food we have so we have to be quick.
What? Hey, You don't think this is all your. Don't be ridiculous.
We'll have nothing if everything melts already. Why don't we-
Shut up.
I'll do it.
Hey! What do you think you doing? Hey! What are you doing? You're stealing you know!
It's an emergency.
Hey! Hey! Why you…
can't believe the way these punks are treating me. Damn it. This is all because you look down on me, you bitch.
It was charging. I don't know how long it'll last. One more thing. Be careful. What do you do in this situation? What would a firefighter do?
We need to calm people down and make them act like a team. Food and drinking water must be secured. And we need find an escape route, as well. Also we need to assess the situation. What about the cameras?
They can only help so much, there's only a few.
There must be recordings.
Yeah, but we need a password. The security guard will know it.
The building was blockaded…
Not to lock us in, but to protect us?
Hey. You shouldn't go there.
Why?
My dog knows about these things.
I'll be careful.
What? What's wrong? Are you scared? Is something there? Okay.
Yeong-su: Where's Dad? I'm scared. Su-yeong. It's too dark in here.
Su-yeong:It's okay. We'll gonna be alright.
Yeong-su: And dad?
Su-yeong:He'll be back soon.
Hyun-su:Kids. I'm here to help you.
Please sir. Do you think you can save our dad.
Hyun-su:What?
Our dad fell down from the building and hit the ground..
Hyun-su:I know.
Su-yeong:Maybe he's still--
Hyun-su:I'm afraid nobody can survive a fall from the 12th floor. There's a man on the 14th floor with a lot of food for the both of you. You're hungry, aren't you? You don't want to stay here by yourselves, will you? In order to get there, we need to go into the hall where monsters are running wild. How old are you the two of you?
Su-yeong:I'm nine.. and my brother is six years old.
Hyun-su:You know, those are perfect ages to fight monsters. Don't worry. I'll protect you two. I promise.
FIRE HYDRANT
Hyun-su's inner monster:Protect them? Is that what you want to do?
Su-yeong:Are you okay?
Hyun-su:Get away from me. Go!
You always liked to act cool in front of the weak didn't you. Now look what happened
It was my fault.
-It wasn't your fault.
It was your fault!
You're a sad case.
It was unfair.
Just die already.
It was unfair.
