Many Zombie Stories, This Is The Difference All Of Us Are Dead According To The Cast And Director

JAKARTA - All of Us Are Dead is the latest South Korean series from the Netflix streaming service. With the main zombie theme, not a few netizens have questioned what is the difference between this series and the previous zombie films or series.

“There are a lot of zombie stories that mostly focus on adults as they deal with a zombie outbreak. But (All of Us Are Dead) is a little bit unique. This happens in a confined area, a school and is faced by minors," said director Lee JQ at a press conference on Wednesday, January 26.

“I think the story will be very interesting and curious about the choices the students make. I think this can bring a new meaning to the zombie genre," he said.

Actor Lim Jae Hyuk also explained that the story of All of Us Are Dead is very different from zombie stories in general. "This is a story that happened in a school so what we have (as weapons) are school equipment, tables, or chairs," explained Lim Jae Hyuk.

In addition, even though it tells the story of an epidemic at school, this series is very close to anyone who watches it.

"I think what makes All of Us Are Dead is not only about entertainment but also seeing about the virus that is connected to all of us, especially in the current situation," said Yoo In Soo.

Yoo In Soo also shared the many action scenes he did in this series. Together with Lomon and Yoon Chan Young, the three did special training for several action scenes.

“The special training I did was… very difficult. We have a lot of action scenes but we didn't know it would be that intense. I couldn't control my body after 20 minutes. I went to the bathroom and threw up," said the Gwi Nam actor.

All of Us Are Dead is expected to be a new experience for those who watch it. Lee JQ wants everyone to feel as if they are facing a zombie outbreak like in the series.

“People who watch it will be shocked. I want the viewers to feel they are in it too," said Lee JQ.

All of Us Are Dead tells the story of the struggles of children at Hyosan High School against a zombie outbreak. Without the help of their parents, they must save themselves from various zombie attacks. The series will premiere January 28 on Netflix.
