Amid busy and indifferent passers-by, a rough-looking homeless man with a bleeding neck-wound finds refuge in bustling Seoul Station. Ignored by everyone, the weary vagabond, who seems to be bitten by something, slowly succumbs to his lethal trauma and dies, only to come back as a ravenous reanimated corpse, attacking and spreading his virulent disease. Now, against the backdrop of a sudden zombie outbreak, three lucky survivors--the teenager runaway, Hye-Sun; her layabout boyfriend, Ki-woong, and her desperate father, Suk-gyu--fight tooth-and-nail to reunite. But, this is only the first night of the unforeseen epidemic, and all hope seems lost. Are the walking dead the only monsters?
Leave your thoughts about Seoul Station.
| Eye for FilmJennie KermodeSeoul Station is a superb piece of work which blurs lines between Them and Us in complex ways, breathing new life into the undead in the process. It deserves a wide audience. |
| Butaca AnchaMariana FernándezCloser to suspense than to terror offering a meritorious outcome that delves deeper into moral ambiguity and portrays a crude social retrospective of class division. [Full review in Spanish] |
| EspinofMikel ZorrillaA more than decent film that knows how to support itself in this kind of topics to come up with a solid story. [Full review in Spanish] |
| Cinema CrazedFelix Vasquez Jr.A very evocative commentary on the poverty crisis in the world. |
| StarburstAndrew MarshallSeoul Station delves into the darkened recesses of human nature, unflinchingly laying bare the results of our basest instincts. |
| South China Morning PostJames MarshLike all the best horror films, the grisly events unfolding onscreen are merely a cypher through which the filmmaker can address prominent social issues. |

| Radio TimesJeremy AspinallThough not on the nerve-shredding level of its hit, live-action predecessor, the rabid attentions of the undead throw up all kinds of dire situations and the climax in a luxury apartment block is entirely unsettling. |
| Cinemanía (Spain)Daniel de PartearroyoCrueler and more pessimistic than 'Train to Busan'... [Full review in Spanish] |
| Zippy FramesVassilis KroustallisYeon Sang-ho's third feature is no less fierce and violent as his The King of Pigs and The Fake efforts, and wholeheartedly artistic at the same time. |
