In South Korea, a doctor's irresponsible disposal of chemicals into the Jan River leads to the creation of a mutant creature. Years later, this creature emerges, causing chaos and destruction. Amidst government cover-ups and a supposed virus scare, a man's daughter is taken by the creature. He, along with his family and new allies, embarks on a desperate quest to save her.
