Episode 6 does not give a conclusive ending to the drama. Please continue to develop the drama cos the script and the acting are both superb. Reminds me of the movie ‘Rampant’ another excellent show with Hyun Bin and Jang Don Gan

Notes from Wikipedia —
“On January 16, 2018, a crew member of the art team died due to overwork.[19] On March 14, 2019, it was confirmed that in the midst of filming the second season, a staff member in the production team died after a car accident.[20] The series overspent the budget, with each episode costing more than $1.78 million.”

Despite not being really into zombies or horror, Kingdom was a pretty good suspense drama. Will be looking forward to season 2!
