The South Korean apocalyptic horror series "Sweet Home" is returning to Netflix with its second season on December 1, the streaming giant announced Wednesday. Netflix bared the new season's premiere date through a teaser video released on its YouTube channel. The show's first season centered on the residents of an apartment complex who struggled to survive in a world where humans began to turn into monsters based on their desires.

The teaser shows Hyun-su being taken to a mysterious facility where he will undergo an experiment. In a statement, director Lee Eung-bok described the new season as a "full-fledged apocalyptic drama." "While Season 1 portrayed tension and fear in the confined space of the Green Home (the apartment complex), Season 2 will be set in an open space with the introduction of a whole new group of characters and monsters," he said. Lee Jin-wook, Lee Si-young, Go Min-si and Park Gyu-young are returning for the season while new cast members include Jung Jin-young, Yoo Oh-seong, Oh Jung-se and Kim Moo-yeol, according to Netflix. Adapted from the popular webtoon of the same name by Kim Carnby and Hwang Young-chan, the show follows the story of troubled high school student Cha Hyun-soo, played by Song Kang. Cha and the rest of the residents of Green Home soon find themselves surrounded by monsters that want to wipe out humanity. Together, they fight off these blood-thirsty creatures and try to save their lives.
