A Gripping Plot in Project Silence
Project Silence tells the story of a group of people trapped on an airport bridge that is at risk of collapsing due to a series of accidents. The initial accident was caused by severe weather, which disrupted visibility, leading to a chain reaction of disasters. The bridge was eventually closed, and communication lines were cut, isolating the trapped individuals even further.
Among the various incidents, there were helicopter crashes, poison gas explosions, and the release of military experimental dogs. These events unfold rapidly, creating a high-stakes environment where every character must fight for survival.
One of the key elements of Project Silence is the experimental dog named Echo. These dogs were being transported in secret, but an accident caused them to get loose, posing a deadly threat to everyone on the bridge.

The film features a diverse cast of characters, each with their own unique backstory and motivation. Leading the cast is Jung Won (played by Lee Sun Kyun), the Deputy Director of Security for the Presidential Palace.

Dr. Yang (played by Kim Hee Won), the main researcher of Project Silence, is also trapped on the bridge. Filled with panic upon realizing that Echo has gotten loose, Dr. Yang knows the potential dangers and tries desperately to solve the problem.
Other characters include an elderly couple, Byung Hak (played by Moon Sung Keun) and Byun Ok (played by Ye Su Jeong), who were returning from a holiday when they got caught in the disaster. Additionally, sisters Mi Ran (played by Park Hee Von) and Yu Ra (played by Park Ju Hyun) not only missed their flight but also find themselves in extreme danger on the collapsing bridge.
