A Joseon Era Zombie Thriller Like No Other
Zombies in the Joseon era? Weird, right? But Kingdom pulls it off brilliantly. From the very first episode, this drama keeps you hooked—there’s no dragging, no unnecessary scenes, and I didn’t feel the need to skip anything. It’s hands down the best zombie drama I’ve watched, with a compelling storyline that feels incredibly well thought out.
The plot follows a determined nurse and a crown prince as they navigate the mysterious circumstances surrounding the king’s death and a terrifying zombie outbreak that spreads through villages. What sets Kingdom apart is how well it explains the origins of the virus, how people get infected, and how survivors attempt to fight back. The storytelling is gripping, and every twist keeps you on edge.
Ju Ji-hoon and Bae Doona deliver outstanding performances, making their characters feel real and their struggles intense. Every scene is intriguing, the suspense never lets up, and the world-building is top-notch. If you’re looking for a unique take on the zombie genre with a solid historical backdrop, Kingdom is an absolute must-watch!
