"Peninsula" is a South Korean action-horror film that serves as a standalone sequel to "Train to Busan." The movie, also directed by Yeon Sang-ho, was released in 2020. While it shares the same zombie apocalypse setting as its predecessor, "Peninsula" explores a different storyline and characters.
The film is set four years after the events of "Train to Busan" and follows a former soldier named Jung-seok who escapes the Korean Peninsula, which has been overrun by zombies. He is sent back on a mission to retrieve a truck full of money left behind during the initial outbreak. However, upon returning, Jung-seok and his team discover that the peninsula has become even more dangerous, not just due to zombies but also because of human survivors who have turned to ruthless means for survival.
"Peninsula" received a mixed reception from critics, with praise for its action sequences and criticism for deviating from the emotional depth of "Train to Busan." While some viewers enjoyed the film's intense action and set pieces, others found it lacking in comparison to its predecessor. As with any film, individual opinions may vary, and it's worth watching "Peninsula" to form your own judgment.
