All of Us Are Dead (2022)

Pretty good but a bit drawn out.

** All of Us Are Dead pulls no punches and unleashes a savage and seemingly never-ending assault of fast-running zombies on an unfortunate squad of students who've managed to survive the first wave of a zombiecalypse.
** With 12 episodes running 1 hr. long each, it gets a bit exhausting at times due to continuous gore and violence. It could easily have been done in 8 episodes.
** Some of the characters were a little annoying and the romantic interests felt just a bit silly and somewhat ill fitting.

*** Aside from that it was otherwise reasonably entertaining.

It may not offer up anything exactly new in the realm of zombie carnage other than its somewhat cruel and unrelenting nature, but sometimes that's enough to pull off some damn effective survival horror.

different but annoyingly different

just like sweet home and squid game, this was unlike the "usual" kdramas, well the zombie apocalypse part, the highschool romance angst was actually exactly like any other school kdramas ;)

for a zombie apocalypse, it's not usually from a teens' pov. and usually it doesn't revolve around bullying.. but that was it's charm..
was it believable? lol of course not.. those kids never ate anything for 3 days straight, and they barely slept, yet they had enough strength to run, fight and hold back zombies who are known for their speed and power (like those chombies showcased, there's no way those kids could've survived that long)


Tbh prez should use her strength more, I mean if it was a guy chombie he'd have carried them all out and saved the day by now.. prez only threw bully off the roof once..

that bullied girl eating bullied boy.. that's not revenge, he couldn't protect himself she shouldn't have expected him to save her.. she needed to take revenge on her bully.. she should've stayed in the school then found her bully bullying the kids so she'd save them and have her revenge
her revenge against "the whole school" made no sense cuz as those kids showed most of them didn't know either of the bullies or the bullied..

also with cheong san's mom, he should've shown more disbelief, and also she shouldn't have gone there, also where was his dad?
it's like the mom, the fls dad, the bully, the bullied girl, they were all just steps to get the story somewhere.. but they just mostly needed less eps and less reason to drag it out, like that whole flashbacks sequences..

Cheong San didn't deserve this.. the bully was attacking him and he defended himself.. he did not deserve an eye for an eye


The 2 cops are just adopting any kid they find?? I was waiting for them to run away with 1 kid now they have 2???

amazing plot, plain characters

i really enjoyed the plot of this show. i love zombie stories and this one definitely did not disappoint. i was at the edge of my seat during every episode.
however, i feel like they focused on the story more than the characters' personalities. i loved watching the love stories form, but they really had to work on their individual characteristics. the main female lead was a bit boring to me and the other classmates felt almost irrelevant.
overall, i still enjoyed the plot of this series and i can't wait for season 2! i highly recommend watching this with your friends.

Welcome to creepy yet addictive Zombie land

First of all.... If you like watching zombie movies just go for this!
But if you can't stand bloodshed and creepy looking zombies please don't even start this because it's full of such scenes.
The zombies are really creepy and will scare the hell out of you in many scenes.

I am not scared of this genre but trust me, in my dreams and rather even in day time when i would be alone in a place/ Street, a sudden zombie attack is something that crosses my mind even though i know nothing like that exists... At least for the time being at my place.. hehe...


Each and every episode leaves you eager for the next and keeps you engaged in their storyline.

There are few scenes which are left unexplained but it's ok... The story and acting makes up for it.

All in all a very good thriller and horror drama which will leave you with "now what?" after it gets over!

Must watch at least once.

Mindless fun

Hello, first of all I want to apologize for any grammatical mistake in the review English isn't my first language and I never took specialized classes to learn it at a somewhat professional level, with that out of the way I 'am kind of new to K-dramas I only started watching them when covid began so please be gentle with me (／≧ω＼).

Story: (6-7/10)

without going into too much details I'll try to stay as vague as I can, there is not a lot going on story wise at least not the first half of the show it's basically as the synopsis says students try to survive a zombie outbreak the first 6 episodes are very slow in my opinion but by the end they did a great job building this sense of urgency and uncertainty it definitely has some common clichés but it should be expected as this is a Drama after all. One more gripe that I have with the show is the lack of development in characters luckily the acting is very good so it's not that big of a deal. Overall the story for what is there is decent nothing groundbreaking but it will keep you entertained.

Acting: (8/10)

This is where the show excels the most, I had never heard of Yoon Chan Young, Park Solomon, Park Ji Hoo and Jo Yi Hyun but they all performed great the supporting cast was one of the best I've seen in a while they do a great job making you relate to the characters and root for them (the zombies were very scary and well played too)

Music: (5-6/10)

Nothing special here I don't even remember one song from the score it does the job and builds the scenes correctly.

Rewatch value (6/10)
I 'am very biased here I usually don't rewatch shows unless I was very touched by it and in this case while the show is good it's nothing spectacular I don't see why someone would rewatch unless a season 2 is announced in a few years

Overall (8/10)
While the show is nothing special if you are like me and like horror, gore and apocalyptic settings this show is good fun, if you are looking for something with a deep story and meaningful interactions this is not what you are looking for.

A little hokey but still entertaining

First of all, I wanted to address something several reviews I've read have mentioned about the story. The thing to keep in mind as you're watching is, primarily, All Of Us Are Dead is focusing on a group of TEENAGERS trying to survive a zombie apocalypse with no help. Those of us that are adults, think back to when you were a teenager? Did you make intelligent, rational decisions? I was considered an intelligent kid and I know I didn't. And that's not with the added stress of a real life-or-death scenario. So I think a little grace needs to be used when nitpicking the decisions that led to undesirable results for these kids.

That said, I will agree that while I commend what they were TRYING to do story-wise (commentary about school bullying, the toxicity of politics, etc), there was definitely too much going on that didn't need the screen time and sort of took away focus from what should have been the main theme. I understand wanting to show the end of innocence and childhood through the loss of a parent too soon but the pregnant student and the subsequent baby left without its mother part seemed redundant, especially when there was so much emphasis put on a couple of the students witnessing the death of a parent or at least knowing for sure that their parents were dead.

The focus on the assembly member after On-jo's father had left the group to find his daughter didn't really seem needed to me at all. And killing him off within minutes after they were reunited seemed like just a cheap way to keep the kids on their own with no adult help whatsoever and made all the screen time focused on him being a badass and trying to get to the school and all his setbacks completely worthless.

Personally, I felt like not enough time was spent on fleshing out the characters and their relationships to each other to make the deaths more meaningful and devastating. Don't get me wrong, it's sad and a couple of them made me shed a tear even (I'm pretty emotional though and tend to cry when I see others crying.) but it never lasted very long.

The only other thing about it that irks me is that the score was completely forgettable. To the point where I don't remember any of it minus the intro music. I feel like with the use of a better score, I would have felt a lot more connected to the story and characters like I did after the rooftop singing scene.

Despite all that, I still found it incredibly entertaining and I'm interested in what they might be planning for a possible second season.

TLDR; Not the best drama ever written, but not the worst either. In my eyes, worth a watch if you're into zombies and horror.

It took me some time to decide if i should watch this drama or not, because it doesn't fit in my usual category of shows i watch. After considering it, i said to myself "just try, get out of your confort zone. If you don't like it, just drop it!". I Finally decided to watch it. After the first episode i was not sure if i was able to continue to watch, because some scenes were to violent for me. I kept going, in order to give a full opportunity to this drama and because i don't like to drop.

I made it, i watched it all in two days and i do not regret it (and actually i'm kind of proud of myself for watching it all). This Drama is really good, well made. I'm not a person who usually likes and watch horror things, but i watched it and liked it (i had to cover my eyes sometimes, i'm too easily scared ahah). I actually liked the ending, even though i was a bit sad about some losses. I don't know if i'm gonna rewatch it, but i will definitely watch if a second season comes out.

I recommend it.

Modern day Zombie drama of Kingdom

I really like zombie movies created by KOREANs. It always giving me chills, getting up from my chair in some scenes. And this gives me excitement omgggg‼ some scenes I felt sad for they cannot do about their parents has been beaten . And the funny and irritating scenes is that one of the infected student have an UNLI life until they BOMB the HYOSAN area that has been affected with infected people. Somehow I felt pity for those parents, friends and even the irritating batchmates they have. I thought the general who was in charge of the misssion is brave enough, but at the end he did suicide for what he did... Congrats ‼??? to Kdrama Series for making at the TOP again in NETFLIX after Squid Game. Which is talk of the Town again and doing some memes on facebook and twitter.?

Great

I think it was great. I loved the acting from all of them and the survivors all felt like the main characters as a collective not just the one.

However, I'm really upset about the ending! Everyone survived the huge ass explosion, but Chicken boy didn't?!

I'm actually clueless about how the second season will go. Maybe the adventures of the class president?

Anygays, the bromance between chicken boy and his besties (popular guy and toilet seat bro) was nice to see and I think popular guy and chicken boy had a better chemistry than the name tack girly and any of the two.
