Everland, South Korea's premier theme park, undergoes a dramatic metamorphosis from a serene savannah by day to an apocalyptic battleground by night. The park's autumn lineup, following the return of its popular walking safari, now focuses on horror, with the centerpiece being Blood City Zero: Hell Gate, a live-action experience that plunges visitors into a living nightmare. This seasonal spectacle, operated by Samsung C&T Resort Group, runs for 72 days, concluding on November 22.
Everland's partnership with film director Lee Seok-hoon, renowned for his box-office hits such as "The Pirates" (2014) and "Confidential Assignment 2: International" (2022), has brought the visual language and cinematic staging of a blockbuster to life within the park's boundaries. The experience commences at 4 p.m. daily, with the lines between actors and audience blurring completely.
The entire area transforms into a battleground where survival is the only objective, as the 72-day run marks the horror zone's 10th anniversary.
