A man wakes up missing his memories. Directed by a mysterious voice from a device in his ear, he sets off on a hostage rescue mission rife with danger.

PlotIn the midst of a deadly pandemic caused by a virus which makes the infected patients violent and zombie-like, originating from the DMZ that has already devastated the United States and North Korea, a man wakes up in a blood-soaked bed in a motel room in Seoul, with a cross-shaped scar on the back of his head. He is intruded upon by armed CIA agents who threaten him asking the whereabouts of Dr. Jung Byung-ho. With no recollections of his past, he doesn’t know who he is or why he is there, let alone who Dr. Jung is. A female voice inside his ear which only he can hear, tells him that his name is Carter and he needs to follow her instructions if he wants to live. Following the voice, he escapes the room and enters a public bath where he confronts hundreds who try to kill him but survives thanks to his fighting and killing skills.

Inside a van of NIS agents, the female voice reveals that she is Han Jung-hee who works for North Korea’s Labor Party, which is working with South Korea to create a treatment for the virus. Dr. Jung Byung-ho, who successfully cured his own infected daughter Ha-na, leads the project based on an antibody from her. On the way to a lab in North Korea, Ha-na went missing and was presumed to have been kidnapped by CIA. Carter is tasked with rescuing Ha-na and bringing her back to North Korean facility where the production of a vaccine is underway. When Carter questions his identity and why he is engaged in this mission, he is told that he is a South Korean-born naturalized citizen of North Korea who has decided to take part in the mission to save his infected daughter. However, CIA agents who approach him claim that he is actually a former CIA agent named Michael Bane who was believed to be dead during a mission in Syria.
