When Ki-woong and Hye-sun's father are at the inn they get attacked by the neighbors. During the attack it appears that they both have their shoes on, then while escaping through the toilet's window Ki-woong is bare foot. But Ki-woong is seen briefly shuffling his feet as he enters his apartment, implying his shoes were removed off-screen.

A Grim, Jarring Tale About Surviving A Zombie Apocalypse

Even if it is animated, the characterizations and dialogue are pretty good including the facial animation.

The tension builds slowly and spares some time for some exposition but it creates a very effective atmosphere of slowly growing paranoia and fear.

There are enough interesting twists to keep you engaged until the ending and the climax is pretty dark. Like most apocalyptic films it has a final decision that you didn't see coming.

This is the first animated zombie film I have ever seen so I have to rate it the best. Well worth watching.
