Originally premiering on January 28, 2022, All of Us Are Dead took the streaming world by storm with its gripping high school-set survival horror. Based on a popular webtoon, the first season centered around students trapped in their school after a science experiment goes horribly wrong, unleashing a zombie outbreak. The series quickly gained global recognition and became one of Netflix’s most-watched non-English series.
New Faces and Returning Favorites
The cast for All of Us Are Dead Season 2 has now been confirmed, with Squid Game Season 2 stars Si-eun Kim and Jae-won Roh joining the line-up. Other new cast members include Min-jae Lee, Ji-hoon Seo, and Ga-yi Yoon. They’ll star alongside returning favorites such as Ji-hu Park, Chan-young Yoon, Yi-hyun Cho, Lomon, In-soo Yoo, and Yoo-mi Lee — actors who rose to global fame following the first season’s success.

What to Expect from the Next Chapter
Season 2 of All of Us Are Dead is expected to delve deeper into the fallout from the Hyosan outbreak. One of the lingering questions involves the fate of the “halfbies” — hybrids who exist between human and zombie. The survivors are now beyond the school walls, but with the world still under threat, survival remains uncertain.
Series director Lee Jae Gyoo previously hinted that Season 2 would expand its focus beyond the infected school to explore a wider, even more dangerous world. With production delays finally behind them, fans can look forward to answers, action, and even more emotionally grounded storytelling.
