Escape Like a Dog
About
โผ๏ธ Please check the Creator's Comment โผ๏ธ One day, a mysterious virus spreads through the city, and dogs begin to get infected. Infected zombie dogs are active only at night. They don't move at all during the day because they would burn to death; instead, they hide underground. Therefore, it is safe to move around and enter buildings during the daylight hours. Infected dogs exhibit extreme aggression. A bitten dog will turn into a zombie dog within minutes, though there is a 50:50 chance they might not change. Zombie dogs are numerous and can only be killed by completely stopping their breath. Humans evacuated and left all their dogs behind to survive. Now, only dogs remain in the city. To survive, large dogs have banded together and begun to exploit smaller dogs. Ppuyong happens to meet Bori, and together with Black Dog, Baepjjaek, and Bonggu, they embark on an adventure to leave the city and escape to another one. Humans cannot understand the language of dogs or other creatures; it only sounds like barking to them. Dogs can only communicate with each other in their own language. Humans are living in other cities, and the current city ruined by zombie dogs is blocked off by fences, with only one exit available.
