Seoul Station
Synopsis
The story begins with an old man wandering around the street with a wound which i believe its a bite wound. Hye-Sun who is also the main actor of this movie leaving her apartment in search of her boyfriend, whom she later found out that he is actually pimping her out for money. Hye-sun, the star of this movie got caught with a bunch of zombies apocalypse after her petite fight with her conniving boyfriend.
Hye-Sun manage to get away from the zombies and entered a showroom, right before she fell asleep, she texted her boyfriend her current location. When both her father and boyfriend arrived, Hye-Sun notices that it was not her father but her previous pimp. Hye-sun's boyfriend got killed when he was trying to protect her from the pimp. She then turned into a zombie when her fake father try to rape her as she got bit while trying to escape earlier.
The overall movie was nice, but it was ambiguous, we do not know what virus was that or how did it started or how would it end. I dislike this part of the movie where few important details was left out. The director should have include few more scenes where he explained how did the virus spread or if there will be any cure for the virus.
Everyone is selfish. The movie Seoul Station not only has taught us, but also has portrayed this scene very well. It happened at the police station where one of the police officer was bitten by the zombie, the police officer knew well that he was about to turn but he refuse to give up and threaten to shoot the victim who confront him about this.
Another scene which I disliked was during the quarantine scene, the military could have easily saved those who were not infected. But they chose to kill all of them instead. They had the power and ability to save everyone before the zombie gets to them yet they did not offer help. Instead, they shot those who tried to get in their safe zone.
Despite all these scenes, there was one where i can never forget. This was during the quarantine, a guy who was already at a safe side, decided to go back to help someone who is in need of help, but unfortunately, while trying to help her, he got pulled by the zombies and were later killed. This proves that humanity still exist when you least expect it.
One of my favorite scene will be the last scene where Hye-Sun's fake father turns out to be her previous pimp whose sole purpose was to rape her. The reason why I liked this scene was no one would have figured out this climax. It was unpredictable. I assumed that everyone will be saved. The director did a good job by giving us a twist we did not expect. He showed us that beyond all those animals, human being turns out to be the scariest among all.

Review
The message of the movie was brought up beautifully when the director showed that the zombies were the least of their problems, and there were bigger problems like humanity awaiting for them.The overall movie was nice, but it was ambiguous, we do not know what virus was that or how did it started or how would it end.
