Is There Officially a Season 2?
Yes! Rejoice, zombie slayers! Netflix officially confirmed a second season with a thrilling announcement video featuring Yoon Chan-young, the actor who portrayed Cheong-San. The news sent shockwaves through the fandom, especially considering the seemingly definitive conclusion of season one.
What Can We Expect from the Plot?
While details are still under wraps, here are some burning questions Season 2 might answer:
- The Fate of the Survivors: Season one left many characters’ fates ambiguous. Will On-jo, our determined heroine, and her friends like Su-hyeok and Dae-su make it out alive?
- The Rise of the “Half-bies”: The season 1 finale introduced a terrifying new element – Nam-ra, who retained her humanity despite being infected. Will there be more “half-bies” like her, and what role will they play in the new world order?
- A New Threat Emerges?: Director Lee Jae-kyoo hinted at “more powerful and evolved zombies” in season 2. Could this be a mutation of the original virus, or something entirely different?
- Unraveling the Mystery: We might finally learn more about the origins of the virus and the potential culprits behind the outbreak.
