After the massive global success of its first season, All Of Us Are Dead is officially returning with Season 2 — and fans of the Korean zombie drama are eagerly waiting to see what happens next.
The Netflix series, based on the popular webtoon Now at Our School by Joo Dong-geun, became a worldwide hit in 2022 for its intense survival drama set inside a high school during a zombie outbreak. With Season 2 confirmed, the story is expected to move beyond the halls of Hyosan High and explore a larger, more dangerous world.
What To Expect In Season 2
Season 1 ended with several major characters lost and a few survivors trying to rebuild their lives after the outbreak devastated their city. Season 2 is likely to focus on Nam On-jo and the remaining students as they struggle with trauma and the ongoing threat of infection.
One of the biggest mysteries revolves around Choi Nam-ra, who became a “hambie” — a half-human, half-zombie hybrid. The new season is expected to explore more about these evolved infected beings and whether they represent a new stage of the virus. Reports suggest the scale of the outbreak may expand beyond Hyosan, possibly showing how the government handles the crisis on a national level.
Returning Cast
Several original cast members are expected to reprise their roles, including Park Ji-hu (Nam On-jo), Yoon Chan-young (Lee Cheong-san — though his fate remains uncertain), Cho Yi-hyun (Choi Nam-ra) and Lomon (Lee Su-hyeok). Netflix has not yet revealed the full cast list, but new characters are expected to join as the story widens in scope.
When And Where To Watch
Directed by Lee Jae-kyoo and Kim Nam-su, All Of Us Are Dead Season 2 will stream exclusively on Netflix. While filming updates have surfaced, an exact release date has not yet been officially announced. Industry reports suggest the new season could arrive in late 2026 or early 2027, depending on production timelines.
With bigger action sequences, deeper emotional arcs and more evolved zombies, Season 2 promises to raise the stakes. Fans can stream Season 1 now on Netflix while waiting for the highly anticipated return.
