Yoon Sung-hyun, director of Korean zombie drama Newtopia, has expressed confidence that the series will appeal to international viewers, particularly those who prefer a lighter approach to the zombie genre, blending humour with horror.
“There are many international fans who are familiar with the lighter zombie genre. Like [American-Canadian director] George Romero’s zombie movies, our drama also has parts that show a narrative related to zombies with a lighter feel.
