Following that, we get a closer look at Ju Ji-hoon, who is now in a forest. He is carrying a rucksack and wears a shocked expression on his face. Ji-hoon finds something in the mountain and flashes a torchlight at it.

This suspenseful drama revolves around Seo Yi-kang, Kang Hyun-jo, and the mountain climbers who visit Jirisan.
These visitors do not simply ascend and descend – some don’t make it down alive. There are people who kill fellow climbers, while others take their own lives.
