Netflix Announces Kingdom: Ashin of the North Special Episode
Hold onto your popcorn, because Netflix has just dropped the official release date for the much‑anticipated Kingdom: Ashin of the North special episode: July 23 worldwide. It’s like the dawn of a new holiday—if you’re into epic zombie lore and dramatic twists.
Why This Episode Matters
- It dives into the origins of the resurrection plant that kicked off a chain reaction of doom across Joseon.
- We’re finally getting a glimpse of Ashin, the clever yet abandoned anti‑hero, whose torchlit journey starts the whole saga.
- The teaser’s chilling line, “To revive the dead, a price must be paid,” hints that this isn’t just a cute ghost story—there’s a cost.
What the Teaser Showed
The opening footage has a young Ashin holding a battered torch, torchlight flickering off strange glyphs etched into rock. She stumbles into a dim cave, discovers the mystical resurrection plant—home of the dead. From there, the plot weaves: that plant travels from northern realms to wreak havoc on Joseon.
Feelings Mixed with Humor
Picture a zombie drama where the main character’s moral dilemma is…what if feeding the dead is a hard menu choice? The official copy basically says “you can’t pay the ultimate price in your own garden.” Comedy meets catastrophe—only in Kingdom.
Stay Tuned!
Netflix is excited about this addition, and fans are already buzzing. It’s the kind of episode that blurs your line between horror and heartfelt drama, and you’ll want to watch it until the very last heartbeat.
