Kang Dong Won Establishes His Own One-Man Agency After Leaving YG Entertainment

When a zombie outbreak occurs in South Korea, it takes less than a day for the entire country to be overwhelmed by a ravenous horde. Unable to explain the outbreak and equally unable to stop it, the rest of the world can only sit by and watch in horror as the entire Korean peninsula is overrun. To prevent the spread of infection, the nations of the world agree that the only thing to do is quarantine South Korea, permanently. Scrambling to escape the zombies before the borders are closed for good, the uninfected desperately attempt to fight their way out. Among those trying to escape are Marine Captain Jung Seok (Kang Dong Won) and his family. Despite his years of public service, Jung Seok is so intent on escaping that he leaves a desperately struggling Min Jung (Lee Jung Hyun) and her family behind.

Four years later, Jung Seok and his brother-in-law, Chul Min (Kim Do Yoon), are still haunted by the terrors of their harrowing escape. Riddled with guilt and looking for a chance at redemption, Jung Seok and Chul Min agree to return to South Korea on a mission to retrieve a very valuable piece of property for a group of Chinese mobsters. Despite the fact that this mission borders on suicidal, the two readily agree to take the job. Now back in Korea once more, Chul Min and Jung Seok quickly learn that zombies aren’t the only ones inhabiting this apocalyptic wasteland.

Chased by zombies and hunted by a rogue militia group, Jung Seok and Chul Min’s chances of survival quickly dwindle. Only with the help of those they abandoned four years ago do they stand a chance of getting off this zombie-plagued peninsula alive.

A standalone sequel to “Train to Busan” (2016), “Peninsula” is a 2020 zombie action-horror film directed by Yeon Sang Ho.

They soon discover that they have similar interests and a shared love for mysterious stories and folklore.

One day, Soo Rin joins Seong Min and his three friends on a secret journey to the heart of the construction site.

They come across a cave, and venture inside where they find a strange egg they believe may contain a monster that can turn children into adults. The boys take the egg – despite Soo Rin’s misgivings…

The boys vanish and find themselves trapped in a bizarre time bubble, while Soo Rin is unaffected. A massive manhunt is launched, with many fearing that the boys have been abducted by a dangerous criminal.

But when – a few years later – a 30-year-old man (played by Kang Dong Won) turns up telling Soo Rin that he is Seong Min, she must decide whether this strange man is an impostor, or if he really is her friend, all grown up.

Known as one who pursues the truth above all else, his notoriously rough investigations may be unorthodox, but they get the job done. However, when one of the suspects under Jae Wook’s interrogation is found dead, this rough and tumble prosecutor soon finds himself the prime suspect. With all evidence pointing straight at him, Jae Wook is prosecuted to the full extent of the law and is ultimately sentenced to fifteen years in prison.

Now behind bars, Jae Wook finds himself living with a perpetual target painted on his back as most of his fellow inmates are serving time because of him. Beaten repeatedly by inmates and ignored by the guards, Jae Wook could have easily allowed himself to give up, but his strong internal drive refuses to just roll over and accept his fate. Finding ways to make himself valuable, Jae Wook uses his in-depth knowledge of the legal system to help officers and prisoners alike, with all of their legal trouble.

Five years later, Jae Wook is now the undisputed king of the prison. With officers and criminals both on his side, he soon learns of a way to clear his name and bring those behind his wrongful imprisonment to justice. With the help of a flashy con-man by the name of Han Chi Won (Kang Dong Won), Jae Wook sets his plan in motion.
