Netflix’s newly released Korean reality series ‘Zombieverse’ is now streaming on the online streaming platform.
The series is a reality series with a mysterious twist and is unique in blending the two seemingly ill-fitting genres.
Plot
The eight-episode series follows a group of people who believe they are taking part in a South Korean dating show, when they are instead faced with a ‘zombie apocalypse’, and must complete a series of quests in order to survive.
The group of survivors must work together to secure food, water, transport, and shelter. Any who are caught by the fiendish zombies and bitten must be left behind whilst the rest carry on.
Cast
The cast includes Sweet Home star Lee Si Young, Korean TV personality Noh Hong Chul, DJ Park Na Rae, rapper Kim Cheol, and South Korean baseball player Yoo Hee Kwan.
Is ‘Zombieverse’ scripted?
No, the series is unscripted, though it is a constructed reality show. The obvious fictional aspect of the show is the zombie apocalypse. In case you were worried, South Korea has not suffered a devastating zombie plague, Netflix merely brought in a crew of actors to play the undead beings.
Where was it filmed?
The series is based and filmed entirely in Seoul, the capital of South Korea.
