Broadcaster Jo Se-ho expressed his feelings about being transfused with ‘new blood’ for ‘Zombieverse: New Blood’, the second season of ‘Zombieverse’.

The Netflix original entertainment show ‘Zombieverse: New Blood’ (Zombieverse Season 2), which will be released on the 19th, is a variety entertainment show that features the cast members surviving by completing extraordinary quests (missions) in a virtual Seoul that has turned into a zombie world.

A total of 14 members, including the original members of Season 1, Noh Hong-chul, Lee Si-young, DinDin, Dex, Tsuki, Patricia, and Noh Hong-chul, as well as the new faces, Jo Se-ho, Defconn, Taeyeon, Yook Sung-jae, Code Kunst, Kwon Eun-bi, Kim Sun-tae, and Andre Rush, struggle for survival.

At a production conference held at CGV Yongsan I-Park Mall in Yongsan-gu, Seoul on the afternoon of the 14th ahead of the release on the 19th, new member Jo Se-ho said, “I enjoyed Season 1 so I was excited to be cast for Season 2. However, I worried whether I would be able to immerse myself in that worldview and melt into it, but the production team really made it solid, and on top of that, I am a capital F type (in MBTI) and I am also easy-going, so I got into it easily,” she said.

When asked about her activities in the program, she said, “Actually, when the production team cast me, they must have had a character in mind, but I kept wanting to be a hero and stand out. So I held back those feelings on my own,” causing laughter.

She also said that she was able to immerse herself in the program even more because she filmed the program right before she got married, adding, “Maybe it’s because I am a capital F, but I kept thinking about the longing for that person in Seoul. Lee Si-young also told me, ‘I have to survive, I have to survive and get married. I have to live for her,’ so that my emotions would not waver and I could immerse myself,” drawing attention.
