Netflix has released the official poster for the second series of its original zombie horror series "Kingdom" that will begin on March 13.

The new season will star all the previous main cast ― Ju Ji-hoon, Bae Doo-na and Ryu Seung-ryong ― and will feature a guest appearance by Jun Ji-hyun.

The mystery thriller series, set during the Joseon Kingdom (1392―1897), revolves around Crown Prince Yi Chang, played by Ju, who fights against a mysterious plague and people behind the evil scheme.

Season 1 was released in January last year and grabbed viewers' attention worldwide for its realistic visual effects of zombies and intense, palm-sweating storyline.

Season 2 will be available in over 190 countries through the Netflix network.
