The Host
After a U.S. doctor in Morgue (Scott Wilson) orders a South Korean soldier to discharge toxic chemicals into the drain near the Han River in Seoul, a small tadpole grows into a monstrous creature. One day the horrifying mutant (voiced by Dal-su Oh) emerges from the depths of the river onto its bank for a feast of flesh. Among the monster's victims is a teenage girl named Hyun-seo (Ah-sung Ko) whose father Gang-du (Kang-ho Song) fails to rescue her from the clutches of the beast. Fearing that the mutant spreads a deadly virus, the government decides to seal off the river and quarantine people who have come in contact with the monster. Meanwhile, the grief-stricken father receives a late-night phone call from Hyun-seo telling that she is still alive in a sewer nearby the river.
