Spoilers ahead: The film follows a new protagonist, portrayed by Kim Soo-hyun, who plays Ji-hoon, a former soldier now living in the ruins of a once-thriving city. Ji-hoon is haunted by the loss of his family during the initial outbreak and has since become a lone survivor, mastering the art of staying alive in a world overrun by the undead. However, he is soon forced out of isolation when he discovers a group of survivors that includes a young girl who reminds him of his lost daughter.
As Ji-hoon reluctantly joins the group, they uncover a desperate plan by a rogue military faction attempting to reclaim the last train running—a modified armored locomotive that can potentially transport them to a rumored safe zone. However, this train is heavily guarded by zombies, and the journey is fraught with peril. The movie’s tension escalates as Ji-hoon must confront not only the relentless hordes of zombies but also his own inner demons.
The plot takes a darker turn when the group realizes that the military faction has ulterior motives, using the survivors as bait to distract the zombies. Ji-hoon must lead the survivors in a daring plan to take control of the train and ensure their survival. In the end, the movie delivers an emotional climax where Ji-hoon finds redemption by sacrificing himself to save the group, securing their escape and restoring hope in a world that has nearly lost all.
