Premise
On the bridge that connects an island and its major airport with the Korean peninsula, weather conditions suddenly become so bad one can't distinguish anything right in front of them. A series of chain collisions and explosions damages the bridge to the point where it’s at risk of collapse, and people who were on their way to or from the airport suddenly find themselves trapped with their lives on the line. But there is a far more concerning threat: “Echoes”, creatures born from a military experiment called "Project Silence", and being transferred in the utmost secrecy, are let loose, wreaking havoc.
