Peninsula would have been better if it continued the story of the little girl and the pregnant lady but that's just my personal feeling. This one felt more like a generic Zombie movie.
My own assessment is this: *Busan was safe in the first movie. That was why it was turned to train to Busan. *The pregnant lady then is this woman, she gave birth in Busan and probably got married again. *The grown up daughter is the other girl who survived and was singing towards the end in part 1. *So , maybe three years later, Busan started getting infested with zombies. It was no longer safe. Which was the beginning of this Peninsula. *The grown up daughter was in the car (probably with the grandpa. The grandpa may not even be related to them at all. Maybe he was one who helped them when no one didn't.) *Now, four years later, the smaller girl is about 7years old, while the older girl that was about 12 or 13 then is now 17/16 years old. So I think it's somehow still tied to the first one. This second one is the final story to tell how they finally made it out of the hell hole.
I feel like it could have been better had we gotten to know the characters more. It seemed like they just threw in a few tropes because a sequel was what the fans wanted. Still kinda cool though. And you were right about the whole Americans wanting to be in it because now we're getting an "American" train to Busan...
After rewatching, I believe the youngest daughter was being carried by mom. So either the other daughter was in the car or with Grandpa. Because this takes place about 4 years after and the elder daughter is too old looking to have been a toddler 4 years ago.
Thanks for acknowledging Main Dude, Kang DongWon. In my opinion, he's the most prolific actor in the world, better than Slap A Foo from Train to Busan; even though they're cousins in real life. I would go into an apocalypse with him any day versus Tom Cruise. Check out his other movies "Kundo," "The Master," or "Wolf Brigade."
Peninsula is the third film. The first was the animated movie Seoul Station A dubbed version of both Seoul Station and TBS was o. Tubi. Don't know if it's still there.
