While Bella didn't necessarily get tons of screentime in the nearly 2-hour long "Train to Busan" sequel, her being able to act with popular Korean actors like Kang Dong-won and Lee Jung-hyun, plus work with director Yeon Sang-ho who also helmed the first movie that Malaysians loved so much, were enough to make fans envious yet proud of her. The sequel follows former soldier Jung-seok (Kang) who returns to the zombie-ravaged Peninsula for a covert mission, expecting to make easy money if he succeeds. When the mission is thwarted by a mysterious militia called Unit 631, he is rescued by a mysterious woman named Min-jung (Lee) and her family. He stays with them as he tries to figure out a way to escape the Peninsula alive. Where does Bella fit in all this? Watch "Train to Busan Presents Peninsula" to find out!
