In February 2022, the Korean zombie thriller All of Us Are Dead was the number 1 show on Netflix. With 124.79M hours viewed, it made the top 10 in 91 countries.
It was also the most hours viewed in the first week for any Korean title since Netflix started releasing their Top 10s in 2021.
In the first four weeks of release, more than 37 million households watched the series.
Finding its origins in a web-based cartoon, known as webtoons, All Of Us Are Dead follows a bunch of students trapped in school during a zombie apocalypse.
With its staggering popularity, it was only a matter of time before Netflix renewed the show. But when exactly will we see All Of Us Are Dead season 2??
All Of Us Are Dead Season 2 Release Date
Few shows hit the mark quite like All Of Us Are Dead and making the top 10 in 91 countries is nothing short of miraculous.
So of course Netflix was always going to renew it. In fact, they did so on June 6th 2022 – a little longer than normal given its popularity.
Written by Chun Sung-il and directed by Lee JQ and Kim Nam-su, All Of Us Are Dead season 2 hasn't started production yet.
What that means in real terms is that we will have to wait until at least 2023 before it hits our screens.
Lead actress Ji-hu Park is currently starring in the latest Korean hit, Little Women. So if you love her make sure you watch her new show.
All Of Us Are Dead Season 1 Recap
If you haven't seen All Of Us Are Dead, the story goes like this…
It was a normal school day for the students of a Korean high school-until a student returns from the school's science lab, infected by an unknown virus.
The infection soon spreads out of school and throughout the peninsula. Then the Military desperately interrogates the psychotic science teacher who started it all, while his students struggle to survive until help arrives.
We left our high schoolers four months after the outbreak. The remaining six student survivors, Su-hyeok, On-jo, Dae-su, Hyo-ryung, Mi-jin and Ha-ri, had reached an abandoned railway, where they were finally rescued.
With martial law ending in Hyosan, the residents still remain quarantined until our favourite characters sneak out and return to their school.
There they meet back up with Nam-ra who is existing as a half-zombie. She tells them that she's well and happy and has found other evolved zombies like her, not human but not a monster.
Telling them that she'll be back, she jumps off the roof to her new friends.
All Of Us Are Dead Season 2 What Happens?
From the ending of season 1, there is a possibility that All Of Us Are Dead season 2 could follow Man-ra's character as she leads the new group of evolved zombies.
Not quite monster but not quite human puts their lives in danger as the military won't want to take any chances and will likely kill them.
But that is just one theory. Of course, we don't actually know the plotline yet, but as soon as we have more details we will let you know!
