The Flu (2013)

In the pulsating heart of modern-day Seoul, nestled in its bustling suburb of Bundang, an unseen terror takes root. The arrival of a clandestine container carrying illegal immigrants untethers the calm, ushering in an epidemic of unfathomable proportions. The first casualty, Byung-woo, succumbs to a mysterious virus— a deadly harbinger of the chaos that is about to unfold. In no time, the insidious virus infiltrates the air, its invisible clutches tightening around the unsuspecting residents. As the symptoms, as lethal as they are enigmatic, begin to manifest in countless individuals, Bundang transforms into a battlefield, its inhabitants helpless against the relentless adversary. Hospitals, now converted into grim waiting rooms for death, are teeming with the infected, their agonizing cries echoing the despair enveloping the city. With the contagion spiraling out of control, the government, in a desperate bid for containment, has no choice but to sever Bundang from the rest of the world. The vibrant city of half a million souls, a mere stone's throw away from Seoul, is suddenly a sealed off fortress, its silence belying the pandemonium within its boundaries. In the midst of this widespread devastation, two unlikely heroes emerge. Infectious disease specialist In-hye and rescue worker Ji-goo, armed with determination and courage, embark on a perilous mission. They venture into the quarantined city, threading a precarious path through the chaos, in search of the one thing that could stem the tide of this catastrophe - the blood serum of the index case, the key to the desperately needed vaccine. The clock is ticking, and every passing second brings them closer to either salvation or doom. This is not just a fight for survival; this is a race against time itself.
