Hello friends, I'm here with another interesting movie titled Train to Busan and I would like to share with you.

The movie is about Seok-woo and his daughter are on a train to Busan on the latter's birthday to see his wife.

However, the journey turns into a nightmare when they are trapped amidst a zombie outbreak in South Korea.

It begins fund manager Seok-woo is a cynical workaholic and divorced father.

His estranged daughter, Su-an, wants to spend her birthday with her mom in Busan.

Seok-woo sees a video of Su-an attempting to sing “Aloha OE" at her singing recital and succumbing to stage fright as a result of his absence.

Overcome with guilt, he decides to grant Su-an's birthday wish. The next day, they board the KTX 101 at Seoul station, en route to Busan.

Other passengers include Sang-hwa and his pregnant wife Seong-kyeong, COO 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 stowaway hiding in the bathroom.

Before the train departs, an ill woman runs onto the train unnoticed. She turns into a zombie and attacks a train attendant, who also turns. The infection spreads rapidly throughout the train.

The group escapes to another car and locks the doors. Internet reports and phone calls make it known that an epidemic is spreading southward across the country.

When the train stops at Daejeon station, the survivors find the city overrun by zombies and hastily retreat to the train, splitting up into different train cars in the ensuing chaos.

Seok-woo learns by phone that his company is indirectly involved in the disaster. The military establishes a quarantine zone near Busan, to which the conductor sets a course.

Seok-woo, Sang-hwa and Yong-guk – who have become separated from their loved ones – fight their way to where Su-an and Seong-kyeong are hiding with In-gil and the homeless man.

Once regrouped, they struggle through the zombie horde to the front train car, where the rest of the passengers are sheltered.

At the prompting of Yon-suk and train attendant Ki-chul, the passengers prevent the survivors from entering, fearing that they are infected.

Sang-hwa sacrifices himself to give the others time to force open the door and enter the car, but In-gil is killed.

Yon-suk, Ki-chul and the passengers demand that the survivors isolate themselves in the front vestibule.

However, Jong-gil – disgusted at the passengers and despairing about the loss of her sister – deliberately opens the other door and allows the zombies to enter and kill the rest of the car's passengers. Yon-suk and Ki-chul escape by hiding in the bathroom.

A blocked track at the East Daegu station forces the survivors to stop and search for another train.

Yon-suk escapes after pushing Ki-chul into the zombies. A flaming locomotive derails, separating the group and trapping Seok-woo, Su-an, Seong-kyeong and the homeless man underneath a carriage filled with zombies.

Meanwhile, Yon-suk runs into Jin-hee and Yong-guk, pushing the former into a zombie in his attempts to escape.

Heartbroken, Yong-guk stays with Jin-hee until she turns and kills him. The conductor starts a locomotive on another track but is also thrown to the zombies while trying to save an injured Yon-suk.

Seok-woo finds a way out from under the carriage, but the escape route is shortly afterward blocked by falling debris.

The homeless man sacrifices himself to buy time for Seok-woo to clear the debris, and he, Su-an and Seong-kyeong manage to escape onto the new locomotive.

Find out what happened next as he sacrifices himself to buy time for others to escape as the movie gets interesting.

Thanks for reading my post.
