Are you an avid K-drama fan and looking to binge something
similar to Train to Busan, #Alive and The Wailing or A Love So Beautiful? If yes, then there’s something better coming to your
screens – South Korea’s Sweet Home, Korean remake!
Nobody can do zombies (or monsters in this case) better than
South Koreans… Don’t believe us? Stream Sweet
Home on 18th December on Netflix to see it yourself!
Here’s everything about another Netflix’s K-drama ‘Run on”
Netflix’s latest K-drama offers a frightening yet
entertaining experience with the impressive special effects, compelling story, and strong characters!
“I decided it was time to die…. And the world agreed with
me.”
It’s pretty fascinating how much South Korean content
Netflix brings to the screens every month, but unfortunately, most of the
content is dropped on to the streaming site with little or no recognition!
While
Netflix’s gems like It’s Okay Not to be
Okay and Crash Landing on You have
been applauded by both international and mainstream media, there are still many
underrated K-dramas such as “Memories of
Alhambra” that failed to get the recognition they deserved.
If the trailer interests you, this upcoming thriller series should
most definitely be on your watch list!
Here’s what you need to know about Netflix’s upcoming
thriller:
Details
about Cast and Director
Sweet
Home
is directed by Lee Eung-Bok, widely known for his two hit K-drams Descendants of the Sun and Guardian: The Lonely and Great God (Goblin).
And if you have already watched these two K-series, you
would know how incredible Lee Eung-Bok’s direction is!
The following actors have been confirmed to star in the
first season of Sweet Home:
Cha Hyun Soo played by Song Kang (also appeared in Netflix’s Love Alarm)
Pyeon Sang Wook played by Lee Jin Wook (also starred in Time
Renegades)
Lee Eun Hyuk played by Lee Do Hyun (starred in Hotel Del Luna)
Yoon Ji Soo played by Park Kyu Young (Starred in Romance is a bonus
Book)
Seo Yi Kyung played by Lee Shi Young (starred in My Beautiful
Bride)
Lee Eun Yoo played by Go Min Shi (starred in The Smile Has Left
Your Eyes)
Other supporting cast include:
Jeong Jae-heon played by Kim Nam-hee
Lee Eun-yoo played by Go Min-si
Yoon Ji-soo played by Park Kyu-young
Park Yoo-ri played by Go Yoon-jung
Ahn Gil-seop played by Kim Kap-s00
Kim Sang-ho
Apart from their gorgeous looks, one thing that Korean
actors are widely known for is their incredible talent, and that’s the reason
why they have been receiving widespread admiration and recognition.
Let’s see if the cast of Sweet
Home maintains the same standard or falls through…
Plot:
Based on the webtoon comic of the same name created by
Yongchan Hwang, Sweet Home tells the
story of a high-school student Cha Hyun-Soo who moves into a new apartment
after the death of his family in an accident. He becomes traumatized after
being bullied in school and chooses to stay alone in his room.
In an unfortunate turn of events, when humans starts to turn
into savages, he and his neighbors fight to survive and struggle to hold on to
their humanity. As the story progresses, we follow the protagonist as he tries
to save the people who have transformed into monsters because of their greed.
And while he’s at it, he notices that his pessimistic view of the society
begins to change.
The story sounds similar to #Alive, another Netflix
Original K-drama, in which a video game live-streamer struggles to survive as he is forced
to stay in his apartment during a zombie apocalypse.
But we’re expecting something unique and original with Sweet Home, as an acclaimed director
(Lee Eung-Bok) is on board this time.
Episodes
details and run time
The first season of Sweet
Home consists of 10 episodes in total, each having a runtime of 60 minutes.
All the episodes are expected to release on Netflix on 18th
December.
The series is a full-fledged Netflix Original, which means
you can stream it in 4k. You will, however, need a premium Netflix subscription
and a 4K device to watch the latest K-drama in 4K.
Many of the webtoon fans must be wondering if season 1 would
cover the entire story of Sweet Home.
Well, there are 130 chapters of Sweet
Home till now. Considering the total run time of 10 hours, the season 1
will have plenty of room to cover most of the comic story, if not all!
