00:04Oh my god! Something's wrong at Pinnacle Hospital! There are police and doctors everywhere!
00:09Is there a confirmed case?
00:16Emily, I was just about to reply to you, but the post vanished. I didn't delete it.
00:19I don't know if it's a confirmed case, but there are special police. It's terrifying.
00:23Is your lease almost up? Do you want to renew it?
00:27Emily, graduation season is coming up soon and apartments will be in short supply.
00:30Decide quickly if you want to renew and I can get you a discount.
00:54The city will be locked down at 8am tomorrow. Get out if you can. Stock up on supplies until your
00:59place is full.
01:09There's an emergency at home. I need to take leave.
01:11Okay, Emily, go on home. Take a week off.
01:20Dad, drive back to City Q right now. I'm coming home today.
01:24Honey, what's going on?
01:25I'll explain everything as soon as I get out of the car.
01:28Where are you now?
01:38Mom, send me the address of our new place. Leave work now. I'll be home this afternoon.
02:01Miss, are you sure you want this much stuff?
02:03Positive. Please deliver it as soon as possible. Thank you.
02:12What was wrong with that biter in the video?
02:14A huge metropolis with tens of millions of people, a major transportation hubbit,
02:19locking down just like that?
02:21Why run away from the most important economic and cultural center unless it's already out of control?
02:25What is happening to this world?
02:33What's wrong, honey? What happened?
02:35Sweetie, does this have something to do with you coming home suddenly?
02:38I don't know exactly what's going on, but I know it's serious.
02:41The city is locking down at 8am tomorrow.
02:43Someone warned me to leave right away and stock up on supplies.
02:46I'm so scared. Please believe me, Mom and Dad.
02:48We really need to buy enough to last at least a year.
02:50Don't be afraid. Mom and Dad have your back, always.
02:53Who would we trust if not you?
02:56Stocking up, right?
02:58Don't wait for my cooking today.
02:59I'm heading to the wholesale market first.
03:01Send me the list of what you ordered, baby.
03:03I'll check what you're missing and fill in the gaps.
03:10Our family will be fine. Stop panicking.
03:12Pack your things properly and head to the airport.
03:14I already placed an order for a batch of supplies.
03:16To avoid drawing attention, I had them delivered to the B1 parking garage around 8pm.
03:20When we could be upstairs, be careful not to run into anyone.
03:22Okay, don't worry, sweetie.
03:23jaka?.
03:24Mom will never let anything happen to you.

03:59I don't know.
04:33I have to face it.
04:34This is already the last train to the airport.
04:57It's passable now.
05:14Hi, Mom. It's me.
05:16Honey, Mom's busy here.
05:17I just ordered 200 pounds of pork, 100 pounds of meat, 100 pounds of lamb, four whole chicken.

05:24Mom, you're incredible.

05:27Remember to buy a solar generator, batteries, and a few more refrigerators.

05:43This flight is about to depart.
05:52Hold on.

09:19so
09:47movies are just movies i can't judge these creatures
09:50downstairs based on fictitious stories the person who was brutally attacked this morning
09:54has now turned into one of them judging from this the virus spreads through saliva and blood
09:59right now these zombies seem mindless wandering aimlessly in circles after that sick man vomited
10:04earlier they were drawn to the smell and swarmed around building 10 where he lives
10:09that means they hunt relying on hearing and smell
10:12honey
10:13honey
10:13let's get some sleep
10:14we were completely worn out last night
10:19what's happening
10:20it's so dark
10:22damn it
10:23the stench of rotten iron is thick enough to choke on
10:28i remember these eyes
10:30i saw them at the airport in city b one day ago
10:33sweet
10:35you're having a nightmare
10:36wake up
10:40you have a fever baby
10:41take this medicine
10:43take this medicine and you'll feel better
10:54the number of zombies between building 10 and building 12 hasn't changed
10:59still 11
11:00it means there are likely no new infected in our community
11:04i have no idea what sustains them
11:06they seem to need no food or energy besides human flesh
11:10stray cats in the yard hold no interest for them
11:14they fear no daylight
11:16and will lunge and bite and blindly at any sound
11:20proving their hearing is extremely sharp
11:29dad come quick
11:38dad should we help him
11:45help might come for us soon
11:48i think we can give him something just not too much
11:53that makes sense
11:57two packs of compressed biscuits and two chocolate bars
12:02but how?
12:04the distance between our building and building 14 is nearly 50 meters
12:07we can't throw it that far
12:09there's no way we'd risk our lives to deliver it
12:37but we can't get to that
12:37we could have to be able to escape
12:37we could do this
12:37how?
13:02Oh, my God.
13:04It's horrifying.
13:19Sweetie, what's wrong?
13:20Mom, Dad, that man downstairs?
13:22He's the one from apartment 1602, building 14.
13:24The neighbor gave him two packs of instant noodles today.
13:27So the victim was that kind, Linju.
13:29They may didn't first down, lamber supplies.
13:31We might have been the ones killed tonight.
13:33In this world, even kindness can get you killed.
13:37All right.
13:38Honey, go back to your room and rest.
13:41Margaret, you take over the night watch.
13:43I'll reinforce our fire doors, our fire door, with extra defenses.
13:58Who says being trapped indoors means we're just waiting to die?
14:17Damn you.
14:18Just you wait.
14:20I'll make you pay.
14:31The dying woman's last words played in my mind.
14:35She mouthed one thing to me.
14:37Run.
14:53Do you hear me?
14:55Do you hear me?
15:19Do you hear me?
15:23I don't know.
15:30I don't know.
16:00Deep down, I knew the plan was full of flaws.
16:03If the zombies had caught me before I got in the elevator, or if that man downstairs
16:06had noticed the changing floor numbers and grown suspicious, I would be dead a hundred
16:10times over.
16:10My plan came with high rewards, but equally high risks.
16:13That was why I never let my parents get involved.
16:15Do you think your father and I are weak, hiding behind you, waiting to be protected?
16:21Watching your child take dangerous risks just to keep the family safe is the cruelest thing
16:24a parent can endure.
16:25Have you ever thought?
16:27Two people begged for supplies that day.
16:28Where is the other one?
16:29Could he be hiding on the 14th floor, waiting to ambush you?
16:33I never considered that.
16:36Baby, beyond being your family, you need to learn to trust and cooperate with others.
16:42We are not burdens.
16:44We survive this together.
16:52Thirteen people went out to search for supplies, but only five actually made it back.
16:58A severe two-day rainstorm hit one night in September.
17:01It completely submerged the first floor and hit the second floor in imminent danger.
17:09Will the buildings collapse after being soaked in rainwater for so long?
17:12It's unlikely.
17:14Flooding mostly shortens a building's lifespan, not bring it down at once.
17:52I can't help feel like the zombies are watching them.
17:57The supplies they brought back was only enough for one person to survive three days.
18:01I reckon they'll have to go out for more, but I heard the streets are flooded with them.
18:39Damn it.
18:40The thick, sickening stench of blood hangs in the air, and I feel like I'm drowning in it.
18:49Oh my god! It's an intelligent variant!
18:52The zombies downstairs have evolved, and they've spawned a leader!
18:56This is terrible. Will we even survive?
18:58Don't be afraid, my love.
18:59As long as we stay together as a family, we'll get through anything.
19:02Based on everything I observed, I've categorized them as Stage 1, Stage 2, and Stage 3.
19:06Stage 1 zombies are the mindless ones from the early days of the apocalypse.
19:09Stage 2 are the evolved ones that hunted the survivors today, enhanced physical ability with basic primitive intelligence.
19:15Stage 3 are the intelligent overlords that can command the horde, even capable of showing primitive emotion.
19:21Evolution is only accelerating.
19:22If we don't stop them soon, there will surely be Stage 4, Stage 5, and beyond.
19:27This is catastrophic.
19:28We've lost all contact with the government.
19:30We have no idea what has become of the outside world.
19:32We held our breath until the last zombie left the neighborhood, finally able to relax.
19:37Yet overwhelming loneliness washed over me.
19:40The world had grown deathly quiet, leaving only the three of us alive.
19:44You've been down lately. Go tend to the plants to clear your head.
19:47It feels as if I'm nurturing the last hope for humanity.
19:50Some of the potatoes we stockpiled long ago have sprouted.
19:53I plant them alongside the new vegetables.
19:55I cut out the sprouting the buds, then bury them in soil-filled water bottles.
20:00Once leaves grow in, I dig up the rooted spruits and transplant them into large cardboard boxes,
20:06alongside the other healthy seedlings.
20:08I fertilize the crops every 20 days.
20:10I snip off all beading flowers to stop the plants for wasting nutrients and withering.
20:19Even on such a sacred holiday, we can only celebrate in the simplest, saddest way.
20:26How much longer must we endure this first world?
20:30I never cared for Christmas pudding.
20:32I wouldn't take a single bite last Christmas.
20:35This year is different, though.
20:37Every ingredient feels incredibly precious.
20:39It has been six months since the zombie outbreak,
20:42and we treasure every scrape of food more than ever before.
21:11I have a bad feeling.
21:14The zombies are evolving again.
21:19With explosions this massive,
21:22could the military have arrived?
21:46It seems cruelty has become their pastime in this broken world.
21:49With their endless looting, the last traces of ordinary survivors in this community are being erased.
21:53My fingers go numb.
21:55I barely have time to mourn the dead.
21:56At this rate, we'll be next by tomorrow.
21:58Once they find the locked stair hall door, there will be no way out for us.
22:05To stay hidden, we can only survive on compressed biscuits today.
22:09No fireplace, no fire at all.
22:11Outsiders clearly know how to fight the undead.
22:13They carry no fear, living carefree in the apocalypse.
22:17Compared their recklessness, our small family is trapped in heavy, suffocating dread.
22:20I run through every possible plan in my head, yet none seem enough to keep us safe.
22:25I refuse to die like this.
22:33Stay safe, sweetie.
22:36I will, dad.
22:55I will, dad.
23:18Thank goodness.
23:19It still works.
23:34It only has a flight time of 23 minutes.
23:37We have to turn back after 7 kilometers.
23:50The zombie horde didn't come.
23:53My plan failed.
23:54It's all right.
23:55We'll figure out another way.
23:56I'd hope the noise from the drone would lure the evolved zombies from the city center into our community.
24:00They would fight the intruders, buying us time to find a way to survive.
24:03But I drew nothing.
24:04Every one of my guesses was wrong.
24:05The drone needs four hours to fully charge.
24:07We can't fly it again until 10 o'clock tomorrow morning.
24:10By then, the intruders will have started searching the buildings.
24:12It will be too late.
24:21What I feared has finally come.
24:30Honey, your nose is bleeding.
24:40Have some chocolate.
24:42Sweets are said to boost dopamine and calm you down.
24:49I'll try one last time.
24:52This is my final gamble.
24:54Our last struggle before everything ends.
25:24It seems the three of us were the last event.
25:26The surviving people left in City Q.
25:34Just stay here forever.
25:53We're saved.
25:56We're saved.
26:01We're saved.
26:04We're saved.
26:37I still can't believe it.
26:39Are we truly safe now?
26:41The zombie outbreak was a global catastrophe, and our nation was among the worst hit regions.
26:45The government has exhausted every resource on rescue and containment.
26:48Here in Q City, we have eliminated the last remaining undead.
26:50Only three major cities nationwide still await full clearance.
26:53We must accept the heavy consequences this disaster has left behind.
26:58Restoring public trust will not happen overnight.
27:01The explosions you heard in the night were part of Operation PICU,
27:04a joint campaign between military and civilian task forces.
27:08Your drone drew no response from the undead for one simple reason.
27:11There were no zombies left in Q City.
27:14For half a year, this city has been nothing but an empty dead zone.
27:18Temporary safe havens have been established in every provincial capital.
27:21Most survivors have already been relocated there.
27:24Your community lies far from the city center and was newly developed, so rescue notifications were delayed.
27:29Thermal scans from military drones mark this area as completely uninhabitated.
27:33We are so sorry.
27:37None of this is your fault.
27:39Your drone's low-altitude controls caught our attention long ago.
27:42We spotted the shaky blood-written SOS today.
27:45We hesitated, uncertain if it was a genuine plea or an enemy trap.
27:49Refusing to abandon any chance of saving lives,
27:51we tracked the drone back to this complex and waited for the right moment.
27:54I trust you.
27:56I trust it's our country.
28:03Come in.
28:04Warm up with a cup of hot cocoa.
28:08They never imagined anyone could have survived hidden inside this community.
28:14One vicious-looking man fixed me with a cold, vengeful glare.
28:19He may have been plot-rotting retaliation, but none of it mattered anymore.
28:34I hope it heals soon.
28:37Just like all of humanity.
