10 Horror Movie Characters You Couldn't Wait To See Die
8. Yong-suk - Train To Busan
Like with all great zombie movies, Train To Busan shows that the real monsters are often the humans that you're stuck with while hiding from the zombies outside. And Yong-suk more than fills that role.
The blood-sucking, arrogant boss of our protagonist, Yong-suk is the kind of guy you want to die as soon as you meet him. The movie knows this, and so has this slimy weasel of a man slip out of karma's grasp at every single turn. Director Yeon Sang-ho described the conflict of the movie as "selfishness spreading like a disease", and Yong-suk embodies that completely.
Half of the survivors in the climax meet their end due to Yong-suk using them as human shields against the zombies. You're left gritting your teeth as these good, noble people are turned into worm food because this obsolete old monster can only think of himself.
All of which leads to the sick punchline of it ultimately being for naught, as when our three remaining protagonists see Yong-suk again, he's already been zombified off-screen.
