The halls of Hyosan High may be quiet, but the terror is far from over — All of Us Are Dead is officially back in production for a high-stakes second season, and Netflix has just revealed who's returning to the fray. The survival horror series, which exploded into global popularity after its 2022 debut, is ready to unleash a new chapter of blood-pumping chaos, this time far beyond the confines of a high school.
Season 2 promises to pick up the pieces in the aftermath of the original outbreak, with Park Ji-hu (Nam On-jo), Yoon Chan-young (Lee Cheong-san), Cho Yi-hyun (Choi Nam-ra), and Lomon (Lee Su-hyeok) reprising their roles as the few who made it out alive. But survival came at a price, and the scars of what happened in Hyosan still linger. Now, as the story shifts to Seoul, On-jo is trying to settle into university life — only to find herself facing the unimaginable once again when a fresh wave of infection breaks out.
This time, new faces join the fight. Lee Min-jae (Weak Hero: Class 2) steps in as Yong Ma-ru, Kim Si-eun (Squid Game Season 2) plays So Ju-ran, and Yoon Ga-i appears as Lee Jong-ah — all fellow university students swept into the unfolding nightmare. Roh Jae-won (Squid Game Seasons 2 and 3) joins the cast as Han Doo-seok, a National Intelligence Service team leader with his own stake in the crisis. And somewhere in the wreckage of their fractured world, Cheong-san, Nam-ra, and Su-hyeok continue to navigate the lasting effects of what they survived. — NetflixGeeked (@NetflixGeeked) Behind the scenes, the creative team that brought the first season's gripping tension to life is back as well. Directors Lee JQ (Daily Dose of Sunshine) and Kim Nam-su return to helm the new episodes, with Chun Sung-il (King the Land) once again writing the 1, based on Joo Dong-geun's webtoon, struck a nerve with audiences around the world. Blending teen drama, social commentary, and heart-stopping horror, it followed a group of students forced to grow up fast when a zombie outbreak turned their school into a warzone. The series didn't just earn a cult following — it became a global phenomenon, landing in Netflix's Top 10 in over 90 countries and securing its place among the most-watched non-English shows in the platform's history.
