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
