Plagued Sea - Kim Bo-Young

Visionary Korean author Kim Bo-Young unleashes a Lovecraftian nightmare of infection, transformation, and abomination.While waiting for a train to Haewon, an isolated Korean seaside village, bodyguard Muyoung gets a disaster alert on her phone.

Will Muyoung survive? Does she even deserve to?
