Netflix has confirmed the start of production for the second season of the hit Korean YA zombie series "All of Us Are Dead". The show, which made waves in 2022, has already amassed over 560 million viewing hours and secured a spot in the Top 10 non-English TV rankings across over 90 countries [1].Season 2 will shift focus to university-aged protagonist Nam On-jo, portrayed by returning star Park Ji-hu, who is now navigating life as a Seoul college student. The narrative takes a dramatic turn when a fresh wave of infection strikes the city, once again forcing On-jo into a desperate battle for survival [2].
The season introduces several new faces to the ensemble. Lee Min-jae, Kim Si-eun, and Yoon Ga-i join as a trio of battle-hardened university seniors who have developed their own survival strategies. Additionally, Roh Jae-won takes on the role of Han Du-seok, a National Intelligence Service team leader whose involvement promises to inject new layers of tension into the storyline [2].
The season will also explore the current circumstances of original Hyosan outbreak survivors, including Cheong-san (Yoon Chan-young), Nam-ra (Cho Yi-hyun), and Su-hyeok (Lomon), as they confront the challenges of post-outbreak life while facing the resurgence of the infection [2].
Behind the camera, the directing duo of Lee JQ and Kim Nam-su return to helm the sophomore installment, working from a script penned by returning writer Chun Sung-il [2].
The announcement reinforces Netflix’s aggressive expansion in Korean content production. Recent Netflix Korea successes include "When Life Gives You Tangerines" starring IU and Park Bo-gum, "Culinary Class Wars", and the record-breaking "Squid Game" Season 3 which helped drive the streamer’s continued Korean content investment [2].
