‘Kingdom’ second trailer chills, excites

The undead will haunt you.

The premise of the upcoming Netlix Original series is zombies running around in Joseon era.  The second trailer of “Kingdom” was dropped this week and we are excited.

“How can humans eat humans,” a character asks.

It then shows a series of corpses reanimating, running and attacking the living.  The 54-seconder teaser tells us that the zombies in the show attack in groups, they eat any part of a person they can get hold of, and that they can run.  Goodluck to mankind!

“Kingdom” follows the Crown Prince played by Ju Ji-hoon (“Along with the Gods”, “Princess Hours”) as he investigates the plague gripping the nation. Bae Doona (“Jupiter Ascending”, “Sense8”) is a healer trying to cure the incurable.   It is the second Netflix Original Korean series.  The first one is the webtoon-based drama “Love Alarm”.
