The debut of Netflix’s latest South Korean drama, “All of Us Are Dead,” on Friday led to a massive upswing in user engagement on Twitter over the weekend, landing the series at the top of PvNew’s Trending TV chart for the week of Jan. 24 – 30. There, it usurped HBO’s “Euphoria” in the No. 1 spot for the first time in four weeks.
Anticipation began building for “All of Us Are Dead” when Netflix dropped its wild and gory trailer in mid-January, and with all 12 episodes available to binge over the weekend, there was plenty to chat about online. The inventive series (which is based on a digital comic from Webtoon) offers a new take on the zombie drama thanks to its high-school setting. There, a group of teen survivors attempt to hold onto their lives during a gruesome apocalyptic event, and many viewers raced through the episodes to avoid spoilers.
The long wait is over! Today is finally Netflix Zombie Series #AllOfUsAreDead D-DAY!!!
