In Netflix’s South Korean horror series All Of Us Are Dead, a group of students join forces to fight their way out of Hyosan High School after a virus outbreak on campus begins turning their classmates into zombies. Trapped without any food, cell phone service, or adults, the teenagers are left to take on the mass of zombies alone, all while hoping that someone is on the way to rescue them. If that plot description made your mind immediately jump to the popular South Korean zombie horror film Train From Busan (*raises hand*), you’re not alone — in fact, one of the characters even references the film in the All of Us Are Dead trailer.

It will likely be the first time U.S. audiences see many of the actors in the show, but there is one recognizable face: Lee Yoo-Mi, who portrayed Player 240 in Netflix’s hit survival drama Squid Game. She only has a small role in All Of Us Are Dead, and most of the rest of the cast members are up-and-coming young Korean actors. According to Huffpost Korea, series co-director Lee Jae-kyoo intentionally looked for lesser-known actors in the hopes that it would help the show feel more realistic and shocking.
