Those marginalized from the group become new enemies who also join the hunt. When they discover that Seulgi, the eldest sister in the family, has been "infected" but can control her body to remain human, the mission to survive turns into a moral battle within the family. Will they continue to fight together to escape Seoul, or will they sacrifice one another to survive?
