What do a devastating zombie virus, a brilliant lawyer on the autism spectrum, and high school bullying have in common? They are the themes underpinning Netflix’s most-watched non-English shows ever and PLOT TWIST! They are also all in Korean.
Now, Three popular Korean shows on Netflix are expected to premiere new seasons in 2024 or early 2025.
So let’s have a detailed look at the series which are returning with a new season on Netflix All of Us Are Dead.
Sweet Home (season 3)
Sweet Home season 3 will premiere in 2024, as revealed in the ending credits of season 2. The show was renewed for two additional seasons following the massive success of season 1 in 2020, although it took quite a while for the show to return.
Now, instead of the three-year wait for season 2, the third season will premiere in less than a year. The exact release date for Sweet Home season 3 remains to be announced.
Squid Game (season 2)
Squid Game, one of Netflix’s biggest shows of all time was renewed for season 2 in June 2022. The release date for Squid Game season 2 has not been announced yet, but a solid prediction is that the series will premiere at some point in late 2024.
All of Us Are Dead (season 2)
All of Us Are Dead will also have to reinvent itself, as the show’s premise of a zombie outbreak inside a school cannot be replicated now that the school in question has been destroyed, and the characters are all living in a quarantine zone.
The original seasons of Sweet Home, All of Us Are Dead, and Squid Game could all have worked as standalone K-dramas, but their successes meant that they would have to continue.
