8. Individuals who have at least one HLA match with the investigational drug in MHC class I.
9. Individuals who voluntarily agree to participate in this clinical trial and provide written consent to comply with the restrictions.
10. Individuals deemed suitable as study subjects through screening tests (vital signs, physical examination, medical and surgical history, electrocardiogram, laboratory tests, etc).

Exclusion Criteria:

1. Severely ill patients who meet the following criteria:

   * Requiring invasive mechanical ventilation or extracorporeal membrane oxygenation (ECMO)
   * Acute respiratory distress syndrome (ARDS), shock, or multiple organ failure
2. Uncontrolled pulmonary diseases other than COVID-19 pneumonia (ex. chronic obstructive pulmonary disease, asthma, cystic fibrosis, tuberculosis, etc.)
3. Patients requiring intubation, mechanical ventilation (WHO 8-OS stage 6), or ECMO (stage 7) at the time of screening.
4. Individuals who have received treatment with ATG (Antithymocyte Globulin), Campath, or other T-cell immunosuppressive monoclonal antibodies within 28 days prior to the screening visit.
5. Patients with uncontrollable hypertension, uncontrollable diabetes, other viral infections (ex. Human immunodeficiency virus (HIV), Hepatitis B virus (HBV), Hepatitis C virus (HCV), etc), syphilis, refractory malignancy, moderate or severe liver damage \[Aspartate aminotransferase (AST) or Alanine aminotransferase (ALT) \> 5 Lab normal range (LNR)\], or chronic kidney diseases (estimated Glomerular filtration rate (eGFR) \< 30 mL/min/1.73m\^2) based on medical history or at the time of screening.

   * Uncontrollable hypertension is defined as Systolic BP ≥160mmHg or Diastolic BP ≥100 mmHg despite taking blood pressure medications (Up to 3 measurements with a minimum interval of 5 minutes)
