KINGDOM: A Hidden Zombie Gem
ฝัง
- เผยแพร่เมื่อ 28 ก.ย. 2024
- A mostly incoherent/coherent review of the Netflix zombie-korean-drama, Kingdom, as it take the zombie genre into a whole new direction with dramatic twists, a rich look at Korean culture of the very late 1500s, and the characters that stay with you long after. This is my favorite zombie series to date, I hope my rambling conveys that lol.

Probably gonna take a break from vids for a week but I hope you guys like this ramblin' of a review of the series! Discuss what you liked/disliked and more below! STAY WOW
Alright, fair enough bro take care.
How did you post that 5 hours ago?
I haven’t seen it, but it looks interesting enough to give a try. I love zombies ever since i got into L4D, so i think this will be nice. The dubbing is awkward, but i feel like it’s something i could work with if i watched it for long enough.
A FBÏ agent Or just agent I was just asking myself that
ever going to do a planet terror review?
This is what the zombie genre needs, the modern day setting in zombies movies and tv shows is overused and other time periods should be used
The problem is that Zombies aren't a threat if you go back in time. Most people back then had melee weapons and knew how to use them. Add in how much more common armor was which contrary to what movies and TV tells you is actually effective and a suit of platemail would make you effectively invulnerable to zombies, actually all the armor types would make you extremely effective against zombies, simply put, zombies aren't a threat to any kingdom after the Greeks as a king would want to protect his peasants and would send knights in if zombies were thing, which would be invincible to zombies, and really good at killing them. The reason we can do modern zombies stories is because guns need to be aimed at the head and need ammo. Also armor isn't common anymore and the body armor we use nowadays isn't full body and is geared more for bullets. Back in the day a small cut could kill you as medicine was a joke so people who were about to fight put as much on as possible.
Zack Kerber it really depends on the type of zombies.
@@dr.calibrations7984 well, not exactly tho. In ancient europe, maybe. But in other countries, lots of the soldiers are only wearing light leather armor. And if the virus spreads among the armorless and starving commoners, it will be resulted just like in Kingdom series. Starving is common problem for commoners in ancient kingdoms. No matter where they are located. Even if the soldiers were fully armored, if the spreading among the commoners are too fast and they got sieged, they'll got exhausted fast. Or simply overruned. Soldiers claded in heavy and plated armor are not as nimble as we usually see in movies. The armor was extremely heavy and hot. Making their mobility questionable
Its interesting, but just doesn't really work till guns are implemented in mass. In late medieval people would have plate armour which pretty much will let you wade through zombies. Before that people will still have strong full body armour, just nowhere near as good as plate. And the world population is much, much smaller. That means much, much less zombies if a place gets overrun. While there are less people to fight, the lack of exponential growth for the zombies definitely hurts them more.
Mobility is key to surviving. If you read the Zombie Survival Guide by Max brooks, he goes into detail how ineffective platemail would be against a horde because it's cumbersome, noisy and the zombies would eventually tear through the metal or leather joints holding the suit together, effectively making you nothing more but canned food for them.
This show makes the walking dead look like an episode of the carebears. This show is amazing. I can't wait for season 3
True! Totally agreed with you there! This series is way above TWD. TWD shows repeated concepts over and over again. Too much human enemies, leading to the same exact conclusion, turf war. The zombies themselves were portrayed as nothing more than a joke
U also need to remember how he put to us and tell why is good :D
@@samuelanggono7190 it's because they are walkers. Of course they aren't a big deal lol. Kingdom is still dope tho
@ESparda A.K.A.悪魔の死神 umm. Because zombies?
@@samuelanggono7190 To be fair, Robert Kirkman said years ago that TWD isn't about the zombies. They're just an addition to the problems the people deal with during the apocalypse. The comic and show are about the (living) characters. Kind of like a soap opera taking place during the "end of the world", and has a lot of violence.
In Season 1, the whole aspect of the rulers and politicians using the zombie epidemic as a means to sway each other for power is so realistic. I've not seen more depraved story telling than this.
Kinda like now?
@@nunyabiznes33 you read between the lines. I like your style.
Yes. Like now.
Makes TWD look like a Disney film don't you think?
I wouldn’t be surprised if that happened in real life
@@thekiller7994 it did with covid lmao. But if an actual zombie apocalypse happened I guarantee there will be no elections, there will be martial law tho.
What I love about the Korean Zombie Media is that most of the characters aren’t idiots, zombies are a reasonable threat, has an actually interesting subplot, and there is genuine growth for our main characters that helps us care for them.
They also managed to keep the Zombies as the actual main threat in this series that everpresently looms over the human conflicts, which is something TWD completely failed at.
In other words, it does everything a Western zombie movie usually is unable to do. There's some exceptions of course but generally, they fail at all this in some way.
The difference is that Eastern zombie media typically uses these stories to show good and bad.
Western zombie media is extremely nihilistic and usually only focuses on the bad.
Off topic but, I see you like hololive as well
This hasn't aged well when you put Peninsula into consideration...
Beom Pal’s character in the almost-execution scene got me. The moment he goes against the grain, the look on his face as Lee Chang approaches, the way he falls to his knees and cries out like a boy to his father, it was too much 😭
I'm pretty sure the bodyguard's wife became a servant in the palace so she could basically watch over her son. You see her in a group and turn and look at him after the ceremony thing he did.
didnt he say that his wife died giving birth
Yeah she is still alive. She is one of the servants for the king now
@@MrSparten177 No, Mu Yeong(mister bodyguard)'s wife is still very much alive and is now one of the servants of the new young king, who is actually her son.
Yep she is alive we see her as a servant at the end. He made a mistake while doing his video i guess...
@@MrSparten177 she's alive. she's one of the servants for her son now and you can see her at the end of season 2, look over at him after he walks past. He doesn't know that she's her mother though as he and other people are made to believe that the deadening and queen are his parents
My ten year old brother was so curious to see what I was watching so he forced me to show him. He didn't eat meat for a week.
and that how you got a lot portion of meats. good idea👍
What the...
Dang man his eyes
That kid should have known what he got himself into
That was his only take away? If anything it made me grateful I have food.
Once again the Koreans prove that they can make better zombie movies/series than the west.
Edit: Why are ya'll still replying to this?
Great, now go back to watching it with your shikikan
IDW Danya!
They just make better anything than the west
go watch Overlord it is actually not your conventional zombie movie
Yeah they are on a roll.
Ironically one of the more scientifically accurate cases of zombies, I loved this series.
solanum is slightly more accurate
@@jeop133 thought it was prions or something
There is nothing scientifically accurate about the existence of zombies
@@mindyours316 Yes there is nothing like Zombies in real life. But Rabies is real.
@@mindyours316 rabies is probably the closest thing we got
I didn't care for Black Summer or Reality Z, but love this and Train to Busan. It took a while to realize that Kingdom was an actual Zombie movie for me. I was so caught up in the scenery and intrigue that I was really thinking "what an awful plague" then my brain kicked in with "wft, they're zombies!" What a well done series and I can't wait for more.
I absolutely loved this show. I somehow managed to finish both seasons in one day. I truly admire the hard work that was put into this production and how long it took to film everything. I now patiently wait for season 3! If you have a chance, please give Kingdom a watch!
P.S. please correct me if I'm wrong because I haven't re-watched the show in awhile, but MuYeong's wife did not pass away. You see a small clip of her in the last episode of season 2.
Yeah true she is alive and she seems to know that the king is her son
How many episodes are there?
@@user-hb6yd4nm3h 12, 6 per season
There making new season and its coming out on July 23 its called Kingdom Ashin of The North. :)
@@Hi-yf1oc oh no way! that’s awesome. i thought it was gonna take awhile because of COVID but i’m happy to hear it’ll come out soon!
Making us go "OOOOOHHH, OOOOOOOOHH SHIIIIITTT" was my favorite part
Yeah i totally agree
That's my reaction if i saw a real life zombie tried to eat me
YES, finally someone reviewed this, I've been trying for so long to get people to see this show, its amazing and i cant wait for the next season which is coming soon, from what ive read.
Thank you for telling me this
I was practically dying for the last six episodes of season 1 to air earlier this year
@@camperhater1014 ah I had to edit cause I realized, the 6 episodes you were waiting on were season 2, but glad to see I'm not the only person that loves this show 😁😁😁😁
@@charlesstaunton8116 I grouped them both together since I watch a lot of anime and 12 episodes tends to be the minimum for a season
Also they transition smoothly into each other as if it is a 12 ep season
Me and my brother only watch this series 2 month ago, also watch pass season 1 like @Charles Staunton ... but we didn't finished it because we when back to school after the "social distancing" the day after ( we also prefer watching anime like "Kaguya sama" at the moment ). Im impressed by Korean zombie movie, the storytelling, visual effects, good character & setting are just so amazing. I has alway want a zombie movie in Medieval Europe or Midle East, seeing melee combat & armor against the hores ... but zombie in Medieval Korea? I know they made "Train of Bussan" long ago, and this "series" ... with 2 season in Netflix !?? That was unexpected, but a welcome one for sure.
There making new season and its coming out on July 23 its called Kingdom Ashin of The North. :)
Honestly, Kingdom was an amazing series and I was very impressed. I watched it with subs because I like watching the original. Lee Chang and Mu-yeoung are my favorite characters tbh.
This was a great series and the characters were so well written!! Part of me wants to see another season of it but the other half of me wants it to just stay as it is. The final fight had me stressed af tho
There making new season and its coming out on July 23 its called Kingdom Ashin of The North. :)
@@Hi-yf1oc you are a Saint. Thank you so much you made my day omg
@@SpaceDuckQuack np I was looking on my phone to see the new things coming out and discover that kingdom was coming out on July 23rd since the first two season where great expt I did hate the queen. :)
Yikes the little girls screams made my heart drop
I know right its horrible most zombie movies dont show that.i almost puked
Cute
The little girl in a box watching that is far worse in the OG version
That part just came in after I read ur comment bruh.
I actually like enjoyed this more than I did a few of the more recent seasons of TWD. This is a wonderful show. I highly suggest people who have Netflix to watch it.
Bruh even one episode of this is infinitely better than all the seasons of the walking Dead
@@greggaygayakutami1402 TWD was good in the beginning. But after a couple of seasons, they lost a couple of screws from their brain as well. They derailed like crazy and now just mainly focus on man vs man gore. Plus when the boy Carl died in the most idiotic way possible even after surviving all these seasons of extreme danger, I knew that the show at this point is worthless.
@@litzadey1482 I agree, they're just repeating a pattern with slight differences
@@greggaygayakutami1402 that's just a problem with zombie media in general. It's nigh impossible to keep zombies entertaining for a VERY long time (10 years) because they're mindless corpses. They have no other urge or desire than to simply feed on the living. You can't make them good, you can't make them change...without making it not seem tacky or comedic. Like...try making 11 seasons of Humans Vs Zombies. They're are only SO many ways to kill a zombie, or to make a zombie kill a human. Like how many times can you make "Daryl kills a zombie" or "random zombie comes out of nowhere and kills main character" interesting before it becomes stale? That's why TWD focuses more on humans, because you could do more with them....I know alot of people don't like Humans vs Humans, especially with a show that had zombies, but that was honestly the only thing they could've done to keep a portion of TWD watchers intrigued.
There making new season and its coming out on July 23 its called Kingdom Ashin of The North. :)
I couldn't watch this video until I had finished season two, but I can say this is a very interesting series to binge-watch.
For me, I really love the telling and historical value of this series. What kept me watching was the era this was told in, because most zombie movies/TV shows are modern era. From that I fell into this era with the characters and their development, showing how things erupted and how they outrun and take care of the problem.
This was a really good series, I enjoy it so much. Do I need to mention the costume design? Yeah, I do.
It. Is. Exquisite! I love every bit of this series and it is a rewatch for me when I need to see something pleasing and terrifying to the eye.
Thank you for this video and I hope to see another season! ♡
The best Netflix series ever, perfect original and plot hole free
The platform is more popular but yeah good show's are really rare on Netflix also I like samurai swords
@@ishigami4622 correction, they arent japanese katanas but rather korean jingum, similar but with a wider flatter blade. But they are basically the same apart from the minor differences
@@astartesfanboy5294 Are they folded over 10,000 times while a man screams in a high pitched voice at the top of a mountian?
@@KingFluffs Yup
for me its money heist walking dead cobra kai then kingdom
I watched this series 3 times. Absolutely a masterpiece series. This voice over is not good. It's more better to hear it in Korean and with English sub subtitles. It takes away the feeling and authenticity without the Korean language. Watch it with the English subtitles instead of the dubbed voice over.
There making new season and its coming out on July 23 its called Kingdom Ashin of The North. :)
Apparently i missed this when it originally came out, but i watched both seasons and the movie over thanksgiving weekend and damn was it good. Seeing how this IP handles zombies and the themes of corruption and greed was such a breath of fresh air for my Walking Dead tired soul
It was indeed good and each episode is exhilirating to watch. There is an actual plot, and the intentions and goal of each character is clear.
Kudos to all of the people who worked on this series ♥
I really prefer subbed when it comes to foreign films. This series is really damn good.
I do think it's ironic how the outbreak sorta started bc Yeong Sin wanted to feed the starving people. He wanted revenge for his village because the villagers were used to fight against the Japanese. Then in an ironic turn of events, he ended up turning other villagers into zombies because he was trying to do whatever it took to help the populace survive. I think that might be why Yeong Sin wasn't as angry towards Lord Ahn as he was with Cho.
Hearing the child scream at their mother made me feel a bit nauseous for some reason-
I mean..that should be a normal reaction...
Well the only weapon I got is a shovel
I'm gonna live during the zombie apocalypse
One thing I still wish would happen is that we'd be shown actual half eaten zombies, considering human meat is what they eat, its always weird to see zombies, in any movie or series, barely bitten.
The Walking Dead Does it Sometimes but it's mostly just rotting processes and the plot is complete shit and predictable
Actually, you'd think most of them would be eaten down to the bone and would never become zombies. Why do the zombies always stop after a few bites?
@@5h0rgunn45 Plot convenience I think,
maybe it's budget reason or maybe it's just easier for the crew to just not bother with the extra work of showing actual cannibalized corpses. Either way, wish we could get to see an even more realistic approach someday
@@george2p
I've actually put more thought into this than anyone should, but I really can't see any way for zombies to get a horde together if they're actually after human flesh. Once you get a group of four or five of them, they're just going to dogpile people like we see in the movies, but unlike the movies they'd eat them down to the bone. Then there'd never be more than a handful of them and then we wouldn't get epic battles with hordes of zombies, hence zombie movies always skip over that particular point. Don't get me wrong though, it's a great show: the acting, cinematography, and writing are all great.
@@5h0rgunn45 my theory is that its the same reason they don't eat eachother. Maybe its taste or smell or something else, but they can tell when a body is infected, and they dont want to eat infected flesh. Given how it only takes a single bite for the worms to spread, it might be a few minutes before the zombies can identify the "Oh shit hes like me" signal. Long enough to bite and maul and kill, but too short to devour down to the bones.
imagine zombies in ancient greece or any other ancient civilizations but seriously zombies vs spartans
I loved this series, just watched it recently. I wasn't expecting it to be this good. I felt every emotion, sadness, anxiety, fear, angry, pain. I enjoyed it so much. Zombies in the past, no guns, no planes , no weapons. Just pure wisdom and God saving luck.
Very good series. I'm subscribing because of this video.
It's also extremely impressive to have a main character seem to die and then bring them back in a way that was actually build up over a long period but we didn't expect.
I can imagine more people survived this way and we just didn't see it on camera yet and because they didn't know that they had survived, so nobody told the main characters it was an option.
Honestly Korean movies and shows are usually a lot better when done right
I always thought it was just an anime thing, but when I started watching this, I started off in Korean with English subs.
When I saw an English dub, it didn't feel right hearing it when I switched, so I immediately went back and binged the series in Korean.
The only times I jumped back were to hear what certain people's English dub sounded like.
I'm not a purist, I just have this thing where whatever language I start it in, I have to finish it in.
I can't watch Fullmetal Alchemist without hearing Vic's voice, but I also can't watch GATE:JSDF or this unless it's in its original language.
Season 3 might take more time but i did watch the prequel of this series (Kingdom: Ashin of the North) a week ago released last year 2021. A 1 hour special episode explaining where it all started like how the plant was deliberately spread by someone across whole korea.
An awesome and unique Zombie series indeed 👍
imagine a Napoleonic zombie series or movie, line formation against endless horde of zombies, who do you think gonna win, even the genius Napoleon would lost against these monsters.
What an underrated video, thumbs up for Wow Such Gaming!
This is my favorite zombie series on this planet, the politics, the plot, the ZOMBIES!!! Love everything about it dude.
HOLY SHIT I AM SO FUCKING HAPPY YOU COVERED KINGDOM UP, I'VE BEEN FANNING THIS SERIES FOR LIKE 1 FUCKING YERA NOW, The concept was fucking genius, characters were well written, hell i've re watched this piece of candy too many times now, i hope they make a s3 out of this and not just the prologue of it,
the prologue is good too yes
I wish more zombie creators would take notes, the zombie genre has so much potential for storytelling!
when the bodyguard died for prince chang, i cried so hard. he's so sweet and he didn't deserve that. plus, he had a family :(
That child scene... was
Something
I always recommend this series to everyone and anyone!! Regardless if they like zombies/gore or not, It’s that good!!
I wish more companies would create pre modern zombie movies like I love seeing muskets vs zombies
I was so glad and surprised cho beom-pal survived seeing how most of the time he was cowering and running away made him into a sorta comic relief
I remember asking at coding class during a break to one of my teachers asking him "What if the Joseon Dynasty in this series had nukes".
Btw in the episode where the prince arrives in dongnae at night, he has to jump in the water, if you notice you can see the worms from the zombies who fell in after having chased him into the water
The show is the best zombie show
The way they spread thru the weird parasite worms seem like the strain
Randomly saw the show got a new season and i waslije shit ill try it. Even with a voice dub its amazing
As long as you like the show I don't care you watched with dubs.
These Korean shows have such good voice actors in Spanish the majority of the time, I always watch it in Spanish with subtitles (I do know Spanish but it still sounds so good)
You know you live in a truly fricked up medieval Korea when there was no Admiral Yi to save it. Seriously, where was he during the Imjin War in this series? And no mention of him when he literally saved Korea's ass? He must have not existed in this alternate universe.
The thing that always gets me about this series was the fact that *anyone* who did something selfless and tried to save lives would generally make it to the next episode. Like, it was almost guaranteed as a consistent narrative reward. It didn't even matter if they succeeded - the fact that they tried to be kind and do the right thing was the important point. Which is perfect for the genre, because it shows that in the face of slavering hunger and inhumanity, humans' best asset is our kindness and cooperation.
Wait if the parasites need fully developed brains then how did that little girl start going nom noms on another girl in episode 3 when shit went down?
Do why you would probably or wouldn't survive a maze runner flare virus.
Everybody gangsta until the sun goes down
I just came here for the scene where the little zombie kid gets drop-kicked with zero hesitation
now that you think of it the kingdom worms is like the opposite of the ridden worms since ridden needs water to reproduce while the kingdom worms dont need water to reproduce
Kingdom: has worm parasite zombies
Turtle rock studios: Write that down Write that down!!!
I help admin for a server where we’re all MyDays, and we have weekly movie night. 3 weeks ago we watched kingdom (we watched the whole thing in one go) and this week we are might watch Road to Busan. Let me tell you, when the survey went up this week and Road to Busan was on that list... it got my vote.
As a general rule I don't like or watch zombie movies, but recently watched the Kingdom movie, which I didn't realize was a zombie movie. When I finally realized it I was having so much fun watching it that I couldn't tear myself away 🤣. That led me to this series. I have to admit that I haven't had this much fun watching a series since Squid Games 🤣🤣. It's hilariously fun to watch.
When you get bit but fall in the water and be human again but realizes you can't swim.
Was looking forward to an over 40-minute video essay of what might be the best Netflix mini series ever - but why oh why did you use the dub in the clips from the show!
26:15 This is so relatable, when my teacher called for me I just immediately go to the corner but all my teacher wants was to know more about me.
not gonna watch the video because ive seen it all but im going to say to everyone, watch this guy's videos and this series, one of the best zombie wise, alongside Blacksummer (which has lots of "zombie sins".... but its dark, unforgivable, hopeless and gritty atmosphere make for a wild experience)
This is pretty much happening to my country right now, people turning against people while there's a pandemic outbreak.
Don't watch the Dub. Listen to the original language with subtitles. You will like it even more.
The King's mother is still alive 7 years after, she didn't pass away
I’m surprised I didn’t see a why you would/wouldn’t survive the zombies from “No more room in Hell”
water cures the disease? ah i see, gakkou gurashi was a spinoff of this
I tend to veer towards international forms of entertainment. Ours is stagnant and unimaginative. Loved this movie as well as Train to Busan.
The fact that it's worm related reminds me of the book by Chuck Hogan and Guillermo Del Toro I'm reading right now called The Strain. It's also a Canadian TV show(CHECK THEM OUT!)
Mu Yeong's wife didn't die. She was one of the court maids who looked at the king.
Love Asian horror movies they make anything that Hollywood spews out look a kids cartoon
I remember watching this and it was fucking great, cannot wait for season 3
You made me TWO subscription just by half of the video!
FANTASTIC review!
Can't believe I've only now found this, It was great seeing you make a video on the best zombie show out there but it's really painful listening to the English dub, please tell me you didn't actually watch the entire show like this😭
Ok this guy is my new fav youtuber
You know they have a season two, and a prequel movie, and there’s two divergent series based on this series kingdom that are also in the same error and Korean.
Man, I remember when i first saw Mu Yeong died. That shit? That was fucking sad, bruh...
I sometimes think of like, what if the zombies rose during the stone/bronze/iron age
What I still don’t know understand is how can people be infected by consuming contaminated meat which have been purged of the disease already. Why I say it’s contamination free is because the boy apprentice’s meat was boiled in water (extreme heat plus water, the 2 antidotes) thus the worms/viruses should be dead already. So what’s the explanation here for the outbreak?
The one thing you missed was that the scholars were lying, and the crown prince was plotting something, he's still good and all, but the accusations of treasons were true. (he admits it to his bodyguard in the first few episode) But i get its not relevant to the story overall.
it's a nice new idea to see a zombie apocalypse that is not set in the modern days
I have to say because of your video I'm gonna watch this with the bf. I saw this on Netflix and I hate zombie movies more for the fact that they are way over used but you my friend have convinced me to give this one a shot
So its scared of heat and water, but yet is originally transferred in a hot bowl of soup?
Excellent video!
Though I do think that in the first season the Prince needed to learn to care about the poor over starting that way
I teared up when he stayed behind with the lower class so he can help and give them confidence
the scene in 5:13 isn't that sticky rice instead of salt? There are some folklore in Chinese culture that sticky rice is able to repel undead, and given how deeply influenced Joseon was by the Ming Dynasty at that time, i think that might be more probable than salt? Not an expert in Korean culture and history but just a thought, welcome to correct if i am mistaken
But wait how the parasite remains in human flesh after being boiled in water? 2 things that parasite "fears" or it "kills it" heat and water, all tho this is a really cool setting will have to check out this show
Yay, Kingdom. Watched it several times now and i always like it quit well
Kingdom is such an amazing and often overlooked series.
I had no idea S. Korea had such a big movie industry. This is an amazing series! Interesting fact: The black hats worn by the men are made of horse tail hair.
From what i remember the royal guards wife never died & raised her son, & the baby was infected but the nurse put him in water before it could infect him, shame this show is likely dead because of greed though ashin on the north is the last this series gets
Nah when they killed mu yeong I was so depressed because he was my favorite character in this show
the parasites can't survive water and have adverse reactions to high temperatures, so how did cooking the kid not kill the parasites in him?
You'd think they'd just put the baby in the water or cut open the boy's arm later in life to put it in water
OH MY GOD U SAVED MY HECKING LIFE OMG U ARE A LEGEND HOW CAN I REPAY YOU BRO?!?!?! I LÕVÉ YOU SO MUCH BRO THANK YOU FOR THE MOVIE
Huh i actually didnt realize the new king was infected and that it was active. Couldnt they have done the water thing and cured him? Though I assume kinda hard to do on a baby... This makes me want to go rewatch this now tbh. Really great show.
Seo-bi said that she dipped the babies feet and hands in the water, I think. It’s possible that not all of the parasites were removed.
I like this take on a zombie apocalypse what would happen if it happened before technology i really like it so much im hoping for a season 3 but at this rate im beginning to lose hope
I am also waiting for the 3rd season. But I don't really think that it would be better than 1st and 2nd season. I mean, we saw some series that goes bad when the story is stretched to long right? Because I think this series can also be ended after the young king somehow defeat the plague.
You forgot that the new ruler was Lee changs body guards son
