Hit zombie apocalypse series “All of Us Are Dead” (2022) will be back for a second season, according to Netflix Korea Tuesday.

Season 2 will revolve around another crisis that the protagonists face, after barely making it out of their zombie-infested high school alive.

Based on the original webtoon “Now at Our School” by cartoonist Joo Dong-geun, the series takes place at a high school in a fictitious city of Hyosan and centers around a gang of students as they battle their way through a zombie outbreak.

The first season recorded 560.78 million hours viewed in the first 28 days after its release on the streaming platform on Jan. 28. To date, it is No. 4 on Netflix’s Top 10 Most Popular TV (Non-English) shows after “Squid Game” (2021), and Season 5 and Season 4 of “Money Heist” (2017-21).
