review
Synopsis
The Hangang River is a majestic river that divides the center of Seoul into north and south. One day, when people were spending their holidays relaxing on the riverbank, a gigantic Monster of unknown identity, Gwemul, suddenly appeared! In front of Gangdu, who was guarding a shop on the riverbank, people were attacked one after another. I'm getting lost. By the time I noticed it, it was too late! Gang-du's beloved daughter Hyun-seo, a middle school student, has been kidnapped by Gwe-mul! Furthermore, the four members of the Park family, including Gang-du's father Hee-bong, younger brother Na-mil, and younger sister Nam-joo, are suspected of being infected with the virus carried by Gwe-mul and are quarantined by the government. However, Gang-du receives a call from Hyun-seo on his cell phone, escapes from the hospital with his family, and heads to the Han River. And will it be possible to defeat Guemuru?
