It also has remained in the top 10 charts in the South America and European regions this week.

Directed by Lee Eung-bok, the director of the megahit series “Descendants of the Sun” (2016), “Guardian: The Lonely and Great God” (2016), and “Mr. Sunshine” (2018), the apocalyptic series revolves around a socially isolated teen Cha Hyun-soo (Song Kang), whose family members died in a car accident.

One day, a mysterious phenomenon occurs in the world, turning humans into monsters. Hyun-soo and his apartment neighbors ― Pyeon Sang-wook (Lee Jin-wook) and Seo Yi-kyeong (Lee Si-young) ― fight against them to survive.
